I was doing well for the first week of January. I went from 245 lbs. to 236 lbs. I was feeling really proud of myself. I did this mostly by eating less and eating healthier. I really didn't add exercise except for the occasional walk if it was nice out.

The second week I lost my momentum and became agitated with the whole thing (as Ruthie, my Email buddy can attest to!). I haven't been over eating too much but I feel a little ill - and when you don't feel well you don't want fish and veggies.
For example, today I had:

Breakfast: 2 pieces of pizza
Lunch: 2 pieces of pizza
Dinner: nothing
Snack: A piece of pineapple pie

So, hopefully I stayed withing my alloted calories even if the food wasn't healthful. I'm ready to jump back into this thing though, even though I'm still not feeling 100% (I've been stuffed up and incredibly tired.)

I'm so proud of all of you for coming this far. Now is when many New Year's resolution makers drop out of the race --- but not us, my friends. NOT US.
