I AM the biggest loseer ...

And that's a good thing! I know you have all been anxiously awaiting the weigh in, right?
















Duh Duh Duh ...













9.2 lbs. lost. In my first week. Yup. That's right. Almost 10 lbs.

I wouldn't believe it myself if I didn't see the weight steadily dropping each day. I have never, EVER lost this much weight in one week. Ultimately I know it won't come off this fast for the long haul, but what a nice start to the program. I was thinking it would be nice if I could lose 15 lbs. before the cruise. I may have to re-think that! Actually, I think it really isn't about a number at this point. I can't control what the number is on the scale but I can control whether or not I workout. I can control what I put into my mouth. So, those are the things I will work on.

What's really crazy is, that while I have been working out very hard, I do not feel like I am overdoing it in the least. And my eating has changed drastically, but I am not feel deprived. Overall, I am loving life. I am glad that I am keeping track of my results in several ways (weight, measurements, fit test, body fat) because I know there are weeks when my weight may stay the same and these results will help me find this motivation. Nothing fires you up quite like results!!!

Here's to a great week!

  1. Oh my *dropped jaw*! Carrie that is AMAZING! I can't believe you have seen such amazing results. You did in one week what I did in two months. I am a little jealous but I also realize that I have never eaten that well through my process because I want to maintain this lifestyle and I know that I will eventually go back to those foods. Anyway I really really am amazed and excited for you. Congratulations! You ARE the biggest loser! Wow.
