Changes... Week 1

I was able to drop a couple pounds which is good to know, but obviously not enough to feel a difference. I have noticed I'm getting full on less food, and I'm really excited about that. Also, my cravings for sweets has lessened a bit, which is a really big deal for me. I'm feeling good, just keeping at it and waiting to see the pounds drop off :)

BREAK DOWN...

Calories: I did pretty good at staying close to my 1350 calorie count each day... until I went to Bear Lake with some wonderful friends. Then I threw my goals out the window. I mean really, who can pass up those delicious Bear Lake shakes, and that yummy philly cheese steak sandwich! Not me :) I did cut back on my usually vacation candy intake, but not enough to counter the shakes and sandwich. Monday I got back on the ol' Diet, and went a tad over my calorie goal, but stayed within the goal that sparkspeople.com has set for me. So I'm feeling pretty good about my eating changes.

Exercise: I hit my goal and exercised 4 days this past week. I need to get more cardio, so that is something I'll try to work on this week.

Eating out: I did not eat out... until we went to Bear Lake. There we ate out 3 times. So considering it was a vacation... I'm satisfied that I did that well :)
