It has been about one month since I started my new diet, and I am proud to say that I am T-14 pounds and counting! I am over 1/3 of the way to my goal, and only 1/8 of the way through my timeframe! However, I predict that it will take me a full 18 weeks (4.5 months-ish) to get the rest of the weight off. I seem to be dropping about a pound a week now, which was my original intent. While I can’t really tell a difference when I look at myself in the mirror, I had someone ask me Wednesday if I’d been losing weight, and then this morning Justin hugged me and said (out of the blue), “I think you are losing weight!” Mr. Non-observance noticed! Well, wish me luck on the next 2/3 of my goal!
