So I would rate week one as a HUGE success! I am down 9.6 pounds... it's really a drop in the bucket, well, I guess it's more like a splash. The first two days, I lost 3 pounds each. Since then, things have obviously slowed down a bit- but I expected that. I also think that if my agitation level is anything to go by, there's a slim chance I might be PMS'ing, and once things start, I typically drop 3-5 pounds, and if I haven't gained it beforehand, I'll take that as a wonderful sign.
My mom is down 7... Matt is still in bed, so I'm not sure what he is down yet. I'm guessing 12 or so... (yeah, men suck!)
I am making him hide the scale today so that I stop obsessing this week. I know myself well, and I know that as things slow down, I will get discouraged- I would much rather step on the scale down 3-5 pounds next week and be excited than get on it every day and see no progress or a half pound or something like that. So it's getting put away to get rid of the temptation.

"Even the devil can quote scriptures" (Forgive me, because I can't remember where it came from, other than this book I'm reading quotes it... post on the book coming soon!)

Congratulations to all of us! I think we did great. It wasn't easy, but I think we are all motivated to keep going.
Love,
Mom
Yay! That is a fantastic first week! My husband lost weight very quickly the first two weeks, and then he slowed down after that. So don't give up if your progress isn't as quick as it is now.
