Four Week Weigh-In

After four weeks of dieting, I am down 9 lbs. Not the extreme drop that I would have had on a crash diet, but definitely an improvement. I'm still wearing the same clothes and haven't really noticed a difference in the way I look, but I do feel more energized and when I cheat and eat take-out occasionally it just makes me sick. I haven't had red meat (except for one hot dog at a party right after my facial surgery). I've had very few potatoes or refined carbs at all. I am still working on eating more vegetables and drinking enough water. I still get my caffeine fix with diet coke, but drink a little bit less when I am pushing water. So... so far so good.
