Another Week, Another Loss

Having to tighten your belt an extra notch shouldn't be this exciting, but it really is. The last time I lost enough weight to recognize a difference in my clothes was in the months leading to my wedding. That's been almost 7 years ago. Since then, the only time my pants have felt loose was when I would go and buy a larger size. I didn't lose a lot of weight this week but I really started to notice a few pleasant changes. As I have already mentioned, my belt is working overtime, which is awesome. The other thing is that my walk is getting easier. Not easy, but easier. There are a few hills on my walk that are rather challenging but they are becoming a little more manageable with every walk. I lost 3 pounds this past week which got me down to 389. I look forward to even more weight loss this week because I have finally decided to start a food journal. I've been eating a lot better the last 3 weeks but I haven't been writing down everything I eat. I seem to do better when I do this. I guess we'll see if the food journal helps me on my journey. The next few weeks will mark the time period that most of my previous diets have been thrown out the window so please continue to pray for me. I hope to reach my next goal of 370 within two weeks. It will be difficult, but I know I can do it.
