After one week of trying to eat healthier, I have lost five pounds. As my dad often says, that's sort of like throwing a deck chair off the Titanic, but nonetheless, it's a start. Staying away from bread and simple carbs is so difficult, but I'm trying. The couple of times that I have slipped, I've learned that the guilt and regret I feel afterwards just doesn't make it worth it.
So week 2 begins. This really is making a lifestyle change, and not dieting. Wish me luck.
