One Is The Loneliest Number
...unless it's another pound gone.
So, I'm a little behind on posting, but I thought a brief update was in order. I lost 1.2 lbs this week (they say the weight loss slows down after the first few weeks, so I'm perfectly content with any weight lost).
As of 5.5.11, I've lost 9.4 lbs and 9.2 inches.
Hopefully, this week I'll reach the 10 pound mark.

Chocolate.

Why is it that I never ever want chocolate when I'm not dieting, but when I diet the cravings instantly begin?
There are chocolate brownies on my bar and I hear them saying, "Courtney, eat me! I'm very delicious." I did not buy these brownies and they are not at my apartment for personal consumption, but I really want one.
Temptation is a sinful thing and I keep telling myself to turn my back on it. I've caved a couple of times this week, and I must find ways to "just say no" to calorie-infested food. A few things come to mind...
1. Shop (but I'm broke)
2. Work (hey, it works)
3. Read (Where's my summer reading list?)
4. Drink massive amount of Diet Dr. Pepper (No calories)
5. Sleep (and dream about chocolate)
6. Exercise (This should be no. 1)
What do you do when you are tempted by food?

Gone.
Three more pounds, gone. And, I don't miss them at all.
This week has been hard for me, so I was surprised when I stepped on the scales Thursday afternoon. I had three meals on my own this past week and expected that it would hinder my weight loss. Turns out, I chose wisely and I'm three more pounds closer to thin.
Total Weight Loss (4.29.11): 8.2 lbs

It's Been Three Weeks...
Today marks three weeks on Jenny Craig. I've learned a lot, but the following list sums it up perfectly.
1. Self-motivation is key - this was not present before JC
2. I think about what I'm eating...before I eat it.
3. People genuinely care about others (of course, I've always known this).
4. When I'm tempted, I turn to two things...my Bible and my sister.
5. In PR, planning is important. In JC, planning is important. Thank goodness I'm passionate about my career!
