7lbs- goodbye.

Yep, down 7 lbs- currently about 207- meaning only seven more to "one-der-land"
Feeling exhausted today, taking in only about 800 calories a day is bound to catch up with you eventually I suppose. I've been working out a ton too.

This weeks challenges include school Thurs/Friday and staying at a hotel that night- I'll bring my shakes with me and just keep a good head on my shoulders that I'm going to stick to it. With these awesome results one would think that would be enough encouragement.

I'm also going to start couch-5k again.. not from the beginning but a few weeks in (since I can run about a mile now), but usually run at 4.8 I figure I'll start running at a 5 or 5.5. I can do this after lifting weights.

I see the nurse after my class today- which I always find a bit amusing considering I'm a nurse myself. I don't mean to be rude but I figure since I've been trying to lose weight my whole life I prob know a bit more about it than the tiny little nurse girl who told me shes "never been on a diet" is probably younger than me and has the same education. Butt whatever, if it works.
I'm just happy to have my blood pressure taken- it was high last time I saw her (for the first time in my life..thinking I was nervous) it was like 132/91... when I saw the doc two days later it was 113/80, let's keep it there.  I had a high diastolic last time at my primary care doc too- it was like 118/85, so weird for me. She had suggested I start watching my salt and (of course) losing weight.

I know I have a while to go before thinking of transitioning off of the program- but already started talking to my fiance about living a healthy life, where eating out is not a common occurrence and where we cook often. I plan to register for lots of items to help us achieve this goal- including a crockpot for easy cooking.

Off to my class for the week- happy to have been "in the box" for my first week- planning to make it another 14 days of just shakes!
