It has been a week now since I started on my Nutrisystem Diet. The weigh in is in and I lost 2 pounds this week. I May have been able to lose more if I could’ve gotten more exercise in if I could’ve gotten out more, but we had a heat wave in Pittsburgh last week and it was VERY hot. I did go swimming with my kids at the YMCA for an hour one day but that wasn’t much. Then that caused me to have severe allergy problems and made me uncomfortable as well.
The Nutrisystem foods I have been finding, so far, to be pretty good. My only complaint I have this week is I do not like the pretzels. But everything else I have eaten taste very good. And the main part they are very filling. I know I am eating less because I can visually see it, but my stomach doesn’t know it, because it still feels full. Which is excellent! As a matter of fact the one day I wasn’t ready to eat dinner (didn’t feel hungry yet) when my family ate their dinner. And I only had the Nutrisystem desserts 4 days. I just wasn’t hungry after dinner.

I think 2 pounds is a pretty darn good start. I am using the Nutrisystem to supplement my weight loss. I know I have to still drink tons of water and exercise more. The water I have down pat, I have been drinking and drinking it all day long.
The exercise, well, I will work on that diligently.

As far as my goal goes from when I started (prior to being on the Nutrisystem program) my goal was to lose 30 pounds before Aug. when I goto Blogher10 in NY. Well, I am past the 1/2 way mark to a 17 pound total loss. 13 pounds to go, and I have about a month to do it in.
I was racing my twitter following against my weight loss too (as some of you know) and that goal was to see if I can lose 30 pounds or reach 7000 twitter followers first ?
(I was trying to get my 30 pounds off first) but both goals make me happy and accomplished.
Well, the results for that this week are – I have 6,999 Twitter followers at the current minute!
So I think the Twitter following will be first, which is wonderful! and in my heart, I believe the 13 pounds will be gone before NY too. I just need to make it happen.
And if I lose more then that is a BONUS !!! It is like the NON- Icing on the cake !!!

I will continue to keep you all up to date with my #transformationinprogress and you can follow the hashtags in Twitter to see my tweets as well. The 2 hashtags are : #transformationinprogress & #NSDiet15. You can also see the other 14 bloggers that are on the Nutrisystem diet and see what they are saying and how much they are losing too.

Also, if you are on a journey to a healthier you, please let us know. I will help cheer you on, motivate, and keep you going. I know it is hard and I know even making the decision is hard, but nothing is harder than leaving your kids parentless or your family without YOU on this Earth because your weight kills you.
We all have our struggles, no one is perfect. And YOU CAN DO THIS. WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER. There is power in numbers and we can kick our weight to the curb together and be and feel healthier and have healthier families. It will bring a better quality of life. It will be a long hard journey but in the end, well worth it !

Love to All and if you need support, just ask!!!!
