Victory!

Last night I was chattering at ammchan, and a thought occurred to me. Shocking, but it does happen from time to time :B And I started wondering if what I was doing in terms of diet and weight loss have actually been having any effect. I also kind of wanted to make sure that at the very least, I haven't gained anything. So first thing this morning I hopped on the bathroom scale to take a gander.

And if the scale is to be believed, I'm down six pounds.

Commence the jumping up and down and squealing and clapping of hands! ...well, after I got off the scale, I mean. No sense in breaking the poor thing, especially when it's the bringer of good news :D

I'm also on day two of no soda. While I admit that I miss my Mountain Dew, it's...really not as hard as I thought it would be to cut that stuff out. Instead, I've been drinking a lot more tea. Turns out out we've got a lot of different tea flavors in the cabinet. I'm going to try them all! \o/

So now here's my to-do list for today~

- Treadmill
- Clean room
- Laundry
- Finish organizing the bathroom
- Write
- Get word counts reported for springwrite


...pointless post is pointless, but I'm excited, and I wanted to share, and posting my to-do lists here tends to have a better chance of them actually getting done, so off I go! *scurries off for a morning jog*

Six pounds! That's fantastic, I'm thrilled for you!

Thank you! (>^o^)>

Awesome! That first drop is always steep but it's important to keep at it though you don't lose as much week after week or if you gain back a pound or something. The exercise and new diet will do the job, but it takes time ^^
[This had been your Personal Service Announcement]

And YAY for tea flavors!! *glomples*

Yup, I know~ According to my mom, I could go for the first couple of weeks and really drop a lot of weight, and then it'll probably plateau out into maybe a pound or two a week. We'll see what happens. But I promise I won't let myself do anything unhealthy ♥

*gives you massive snugglings*

Your doing well keep it up!
Just remember when you've lost the amount of weight you wanted to, not to just go back to living how you was, because that'll more than likely just start adding weight again. Just take it nice and slow, never any rush to lose weight (and if you lose it too fast it can show) as long as your living healthier I don't think how much you lose in the end should be -that- much a big deal xP

Then again I'm a guy so I'm not exactly sure what I should say other than give support on healthy living \o\

Thank you!

True, true~ I've been doing some research to try and make sure that the changes I'm making are relatively healthy ones. Changes in diet, not eating so much, exercising more...I'm actually sort of enjoying it :D

Hey, the rules of healthy living apply to guys as much as girls \o/ Thanks for the support!
