HYC Update & Week 5 Weigh-In

Well, actually 27.1 pounds gone, to be exact! I am really excited that I broke the 25 pound mark this week! I lost 3.3 pounds this week, which is less than normal without TOM, but I still feel really good about that.

There was a lot going on this week: a surprise visit from CTLB’s mom (where I did indulge in 2 beers and a little bit of “pub food”) and my graduation last night. I am really proud of myself because last night my parents asked if I wanted to have a celebratory glass of wine, but I opted for a glass of water, instead.

I’m having a graduation party on Friday, and I will eat some of the appetizers and have a few glasses of wine, but my plan to make up for breaking the fast is to workout more this week. It’s all a matter of calories in vs. calories out, so I will need to up the exercise in order to see a great number on the scale next week.

I still can’t believe my success on this fasting program, and am excited to see my progress continue, especially once this graduation party is over and I don’t have any breaks in the fast.
