What's that? That's right. You heard me! 5 POUNDS LOST, baby!

Hooray, hooray, hooray! I lost 5 lbs since last week! And that's even counting the fact that I actually started my period yesterday afternoon!!

So excited, and SO relieved that this really is working! I feel great, happy and excited about this. I was seriously dreading last night's weigh-in because I had started my period, hadn't gotten in as much exercise as I had anticpated, and was feeling kinda blah. Chris had dropped 7.5 lbs and my workfriend Rose (who's doing the program as well) dropped 6 lbs, too! We were all very, very happy campers as of last night...

Stats:
Monday, 3/31's weigh-in: 224
Previous week's weigh-ins: 229
Weight loss goal: 145
Total pounds lost: 5
Pounds to go: 79

Now, the only good/bad thing is that because I dropped as much as I did, I also had to drop down to a lower calorie bracket. I am no longer on the 1700 calorie plan, but now the 1500 calorie plan. Also, next week, we will be photographed and measured (which apparently we were supposed be at the first start, but they were out of film, and pressed for time). Wonder if they'll take into account that we've been on the program for 2 weeks at that point? Hmmm..... on to the food reviews!

Last night's (delicious!) dinner & dessert:

• Chicken Fettucine Alfredo: SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD. Especially if you mix it with broccoli and cauliflower to get your required veggies out of the way. I forgot how good pasta could be!
• Chocolate Carmel Peanut Bar: So yummy. So could've done a couple more bars.

Today, so far:

• Maple Nut Cereal: Ehh. It was ok. Not my favorite, made me want to drop a pat of butter onto it was a dash of sugar.
• Cookies & Cream Anytime Bar: (new formula) Not bad, it was as good as a multivitamin power bar can actually get.
• Turkey Burger Sandwich: SUPER YUM! MMmmm... with BBQ sauce on a potato roll. Slid some of my required salad, and cheese to make it a thicker sandwich. So, could've had another one (well, not really, maybe a half of antoher one)
• Asian Sesame dressing: YAY!!! A dressing I actually like! So yum. The ranch was horrid.

Have the Cheese Curls for snack later this afternoon... and then Chicken Pasta Parmesan... so I'll be seeing you tomorrow!
