Tonight marks the one week anniversary of my time in the box. I was eager to weigh in (a first). I wanted to see if this change of life was going to show some immediate benefits. Well, I'm happy to report I'm 6 pounds lighter than I was last week at this time. Yes, six pounds is A LOT. But, it's completely doctor supervised and I even met with him tonight. Also, my blood pressure tonight was 126/80. So, it's also looking good.
My friend in the class, Paulie (which is not her name, but what our teacher continually calls her - we're not sure why), lost even more than me! We were both very happy. What we aren't completely happy about is our inability to vote classmates off the island. Truly, the diet is challenging enough. Do we really need three annoying personalities to deal with each week? Well, three are all that we have identified as of now. Stand by, I'm sure there will be more. We have chosen our first candidate to be eliminated from the program. This older lady, Waverly, is definitely the worst. She talks constantly and about nothing relevant. She over explains everything and I have no patience. I'm already hungry and cranky!! Paulie and I sit directly behind her and it's difficult to not tell her to be quiet. I've even noticed our slim instructor is starting to give her looks.
Anyway, I survived the week! And, 6 pounds lighter to boot. Off to a very good start. :)
rock on sister!!
ReplyDeleteAnd, actually... what I didn't report was that I got soaking wet before weighing in (from last night's downpour). So, I might have lost even more if I didn't have all that water weight!!
