Day 6 - Weight 310.8 lbs. - Treading Water

I actually have time to breathe today, sort of. I have to go shopping again! I love doing that but I'm exhausted from my workout this morning. I wanted to go to my Dad's too, but I don't know if it's feasible. I have to go to church early tomorrow to shovel snow and work the sound booth, so it's early bedtime for me, because I won't be awake later anyway. I'm just glad I can tread water, even though truthfully I have plenty to do. I have a week of healthy eating to plan for! And so, I press on.

Based on my own estimates I've lost a good five pounds or so this week. I will take what God gives me, but if I was able to lose a half pound a day for a while, I could be below 300 lbs. in early March. I shudder to think of the possibilities because I know it could be more. Eating like this, working like I am (or harder!), and staying disciplined for the full eight weeks might very well get me below 275 lbs. by the end. I don't even want to think of it. We'll see what the next Monday-to-Monday brings. Looking forward to Feb. 21!
