Results!

WOW! Since I started my low-carb, low-sugar, processed-food-free lifestyle, I've lost 11 pounds! Craziness, considering I've only been doing it a little over a week! The last 9 days have been great- I was warned about the sugar and carb cravings, but for whatever reason, I haven't been plagued by those *yet* (and hopefully I won't be). The Girl Scout cookies I bought two weeks ago laid in my garbage can next to my desk all week, and I wasn't even tempted. I haven't missed bread at all. Occasionally I think about pasta or chocolate, but even those desires are miniscule and fleeting. I think because I am not depriving myself, I don't feel like I'm "on a diet", and therefore I don't feel like I'm missing out. Plus, I have tons of energy, and by tracking my food on MFP & blogging, I'm staying accountable. I hope this time I can keep it up!
