    Thank you for the welcomes!

    So I weigh in Sunday night when i decided to start this after a weekend of eating and drinking to the fullest. Now a 1.5 days later and a 1650 calories day yesterday and I am 7 lbs down. I also drank 100 oz of water yesterday.

    Anyone else have immediate response like this? I am sure its just i was stuffed with food and water weight and todays weight it probably more accurate of a true start weight. Any thoughts?
