Wow, It's Still Working!

Well, I thought for sure I'd have to report that I hardly lost anything this past week.  I made cabbage rolls on the weekend and ate more than I really should have.  Happily, I was mistaken.  Once again I lost 0.5 kg (1.1 lbs).  I also lost another 1/2 inch from my waist for a current measurement of 31".

I've always been a little (well a lot) skeptical of weight-loss shakes.  While I used and loved so many of the other amazing products from my company, I always avoided the shakes.  I was worried that I'd always feel hungry or that they wouldn't really work anyway or that I'd get sick of them.  And, until now, I hadn't really felt the need to lose weight anyway.  After the past couple of weeks I've realized how much easier they make my morning.  Now that I'm having the shakes, breakfast is one of the first things I do rather than being an afterthought.  I'm imagining the results I'd be getting if I started exercising too.  I'm also finding that the food that I eat later in the day fills me faster and I don't have the same cravings (like for bread).  Overall, I'm noticing an improvement, not just in my weight, but in overall well-being - and it's only been two weeks.  Now I'm wondering what took me so long.

Tomorrow I'll be ordering the chocolate shakes and perhaps the strawberry ones too.  While I've enjoyed the vanilla shakes, I'll be happy to have other flavours too for a change.  Also, a couple of my friends have decided to start their own challenge and I'd love to have more company.  Who's up for it?
