Ok, today is one week since i started my diet. I stepped on the scale and i have lost 3.5 lbs.. Not a bad start if i do have to say so myself! This week i really have to get on track with my exercise, i have just had excuses in the last week. I did buy a yearly membership to the local youth center, now i have to start going!! I am only weighing once a week because if i weigh everyday i tend to get discouraged if i don't see a difference. I will do this!!!

Go you! 3.5 is awesome for one week. Just remember, your loss may slow down, don't worry too much about that. I always recommend using other methods to track your progress along with weight loss. Like measureing sizes or body fat %. Keep up the great work!0

:happy: CONGRATS! Keep up the good work you can do it! You should only weigh yourself once a week at the same time everyday with the same clothes is what most trainers say so you made the right choice!!0

Way to go! Hang in there until you get into the rhythm of exercise along with all the rest that you are doing...great idea for the one-year membership
