I couldn't resist temptation, and jumped on the scale first thing this morning, and I am down 4 pounds from a week ago.
![]() But, is this even really possible? maybe my scale needs new batteries. ![]() I have been working hard at my diet, and really haven't cheated at all. I have just been eating around 1100 calories a day, and choosing the calories I DO eat wisely. I haven't even been working out, but I did work hard all weekend, basically spending 9-12 hours in constant motion with walking and patient care. I also started taking the stairs. (2 of my 4 shifts I had patients on both the 2nd and 6th floors. ) ![]() ![]() |

Yes but it is likely water weight - ifyou are slugging back the water like crazy then yes you will lose that - but that is the initial loss - now you will see a bit less, about 2 pounds per week from now on - but good job girl!

Congrats Tara and yes just like Jen said you can lose that much in your first week of really following a program and it should taper off as the weeks go by. Keep up the great work and you will be back to your goal in no time.

Well, I haven't been drinking anything. Really, at all. This weekend, I realized that I had gone 18 hours with out drinking anything but 12 ounces of coke. ![]() ![]() I'm getting back on track, eating to keep my metabolism up, and drinking lots of water today. ![]() |

Definately possible - I remember when I first started my diet about a year and a half ago I lost 7 lbs the first week - the first thing I did was jump on here and ask is that possible?
![]() On another note, 1100 calories is very low - most experts recommend no less than 1200. Just a thought. |
