Let's weigh in...

It's been one week since we started the program.  I am so happy with the way I feel, how easy it is and that I have LOST 4.5 POUNDS!  After a very gluttonous vacation I had gained 7 pounds so am nearly back to where I started pre-vacay.  No matter what the number of pounds the important piece for me is that I feel so much better.
This weekend was a bit challenging.  We traveled to NM to see George Strait in concert.  I tried my best to stay within the guidelines.  I brought my shakes, chews, fizzes and bars with us so we'd be set up for success.  Eating out and being social (country music and beer are a winning combo) definitely took will power and some creative adjustments to the menu.  However, I found that if you order a la carte or off the side items menu you can be compliant.  These days so many people have allergies or dietary restrictions that the servers we encountered were gracious and understanding. 
I hope you are feeling equally successfully and good!
