Tonight was my weigh in and I surprised myself

I felt a little disappointed last week because I worked so hard and lost 1.8. So this week I did no real exercise but I have been busy and I lost 4.6 pounds this week! Go figure, lol! Now I'm preparing for Thanksgiving. I ordered pies the other day and made sure I did not buy myself a pecan pie. It's my favorite My reasoning is next year when I have lost all my weight, I will eat a piece of pecan pie

I'm thinking about what foods I want to eat, the portion size and not over do it.

Tonights classes was about being assertive and being able to say no to pesky people who want you to eat everything and to be able to ask for what you want. We also learned about the importance of exercise. Did you know 3,500 calories= 1 pound? So you have to burn off 3,500 calories to lose 1 pound :O Also every adult should exercise 150 minutes a week and only less than 5% of Americans do this.

Add that to fast food and other junk to sedentary lives, no wonder we're obese :jawdrop:

So I know I need to make some changes in that area of my life!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
