My 1st Week & lost 5 lbs

Margy82

WOW, It's been only one week and I have lost 5 lbs!!!. I know that's a little more than I should be losing, but I have kept to my 1200 cal per day and only working out 30-40 minutes per day. I'm so happy, now I realize how much I have been eating. I have always eaten healthy, but my portion sizes were too much, that I was only ever maintaining my weight, not dropping it. Now I am controlling my portion sizes and not feeling hungry during the day. IF this keeps up, I'll be at my ideal wight at no time, only 35 more lbs to go!!! YEAH!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS :flowerforyou:

Way to go :drinker:

I lost 7lbs in my first week and put it down to water loss, I have now started losing around 2lbs per week.

Keep up the good work.

Great Job Margy! I started out the same way, and sounds like doing the same thing as you. I lost 5 the first week, five the second, and six in the next two. I am hoping to slow down a bit, but at the same time, I feel great, eat right, and look good, So, keep it up-- you can do it!

Thanks everyone, I am so happy to hear that I am normal and that a lot of people lose a lot the first week, thanks for the positive feed back. I can't wait for the weight to go down. I think my biggest enjoyment is that I measured my waist and found I lost 2 inches so far., and that I am gaining inches where I want, my calves and arms, and that I am losing inches where I want. And even better, ladies, I haven't lost anything in my breast, I hope that stays like that!!!! ( I know it won't, but anyone can dream!!) This is awesome!!:happy:
