Mike's Milestone

So, I'm down this week.

But not just any down. Down 1.8. Which is a big deal for me, because that means I'm down an even ten pounds from my starting weight. Wasn't that the goal?

Yay me.

I honestly believe that my rapid loss has been a testament to two things:

1. Not necessarily how well I'm doing now, but how badly I was doing before. My intake was out of control -- simply being mindful of the choices I'm making at every meal or hunger-pang make a big difference for me.
2. Doing the challenge along with Jennifer. Without her support at home, I would be so far off the wagon it wouldn't even be funny.

So I plan on continuing to be very good this week, aside from a few extra glasses of wine and then absolutely atrocious over Thanksgiving.

And publicly stating: my new goal is at least 15 pounds.
