Finding My Skinny Bitch!

Well, I'm getting started on this blog about a month in to my weight loss.  My first day was December 18, 2010.  I made the decision that it was TIME to lose weight and decided that I wanted to try Medical Weight Loss Clinic.  I went that day.  It wasn't cheap, let me tell you, but I decided to go for it because I needed some "skin in the game" to hold myself accountable.

My first weigh in was 228.6 pounds.  Since day one I have lost 16.2 pounds as of yesterday.  I am so excited!  I feel very motivated and the "diet" itself has been pretty easy.  I'm on the Jump Start program and drink 4 shakes a day and eat one meal.  I'm supposed to eat pretty specific things for the meal, but I don't really follow that too close.  I kind of feel like I'm restricting myself already by only eating one meal a day and if I put limits on what I can eat, then I'm more likely to fail.  So basically, I'm just making sure that I use good portion control and don't overeat.

The shakes are actually pretty good.  During the day at work, I mix the mocha shake wiith coffee and it tastes like a yummy coffee drink.  I just sip on these all day at work and I never feel hungry.  Each shake has 15 grams of protein!

I have been taking progress pictures so I will post those.  I've only taken a few, but I'll probably update my pics every two weeks with full body pics so I can see my progress.
