Nutrisystem - 4 week update

We are nearing the end of our 4th week on the Nutrisystem diet. I am both shocked and proud that the Mr. and I have committed to it for this long. It has to be a record for us! We were always a lot of "talk", but we never did anything about it. Now this is our lifestyle, and I truly believe we will keep this up for the rest of our lives.

It feels so good to step on the scale and see a lower number, and to know that we are making healthy choices. We even decided to continue with the program for as long as we need it. Once we feel confident enough, we will transition into our own healthy diet, following the same guidelines we have with Nutrisystem. I highly recommend this diet for anyone who wants to lose weight. It takes a lot of dedication and feeling starving all the time, but it's totally worth it :-)

Now for the weigh-in, Biggest Loser style:
  • My starting weight was 185 lbs. Today I weighed in at 173.4 lbs. = total weight loss of 11.6 lbs.
  • Mr.'s starting weight was 204 lbs. Today he weighed in at 190 = total weight loss of 14 lbs.
I started running again, too. I am enjoying it more & more, and it gets easier as I get lighter. I am really excited to keep it up and eventually enter a race.

  2. Awesome job!! Love your Jillian Michaels' quote. I have the 30 Day Shred and when I used to do it, I would curse her all the time, but it's a good work out.

    You're totally inspiring me to eat healthy, too! Yay for good influences!
