Week Two

I got busy this week and also figured a daily diet journal was getting to be too much. How many times can I say I want oatmeal? I really want it.

Sadly, I was a bit of a failure this week. I cheated pretty much every day. I also ventured into the questionable area of condiments. Lite dressings, mustard, some ketchup. I even ate a hot dog and froyo (the tart kind, but still). It was also a coworkers birthday this week, and I couldn't resist making him a German Chocolate cake. Big mistake. I ate a whole slice.

Moral of the story is, I only lost another half a pound. That means a) I only burned 1750 calories this week, b) or on the upside, as Lala would say, I lost two sticks of butter, c) my metabolism is going at a glacial speed.

I've realized I really need to hit the gym if I want to see results. I'll probably have a bit more energy to do so once I'm allowed my small portions of whole grains. I can't wait to eat oatmeal. It's all easier said than done though: I don't get free time until about 8:30 and I'm usually beat by 9:30. I guess I'll just have to run to the gym in that short amount of time and hope for the best.

Wish me luck!
