Day 49- Sandwich Gets an Upgrade

Today's topic is: choosing the right bread.  I know when I first started on this weight loss journey I found eating only half a sandwich odd and unfulfilling so in order to combat that I searched for the most flavorful bread I could find.  Pepperidge Farm Deli Swirl Bread is now my everyday pick.  The pumpernickel and rye combo really makes my taste buds happy and the once too small sandwich now seems like the perfect portion.

PS: If you don't like robust breads then you can always go for a low calorie thin sliced bread and use 2 slices for your sandwiches.

Day 44- Hunger Sucks!

Today I was extremely hungry.  It was like the way I felt the first few days of this diet.  I managed to only go over my calorie count by 55 cals. but let me say that was no easy feat.  I seriously had to talk myself out of diving headfirst into a bag of chips all day.  Hopefully tomorrow will be better and my normal appetite will return.

Day 15- Week 2 Weight Loss Update

This week I lost 2.5 lbs.  That's a total of 7.5 lbs in 2 weeks.  I'm getting pretty comfortable with my 1200 calorie intake. Now I need to start working on drinking more water.  That's going to be my goal for this coming week.  At least 1 bottle of water a day. This may seem easy to some but I am a self proclaimed Diet Soda addict.
