Week One - Success

Success! As promised, this week I lost 1 pound. That's not a lot, granted. And at this rate, it'll take me almost 7 months to lose the 20 pounds I want to lose. But still. It's a start.

The reason why 1 pound a week is a good goal right now is because I'm under a lot of stress and eating has always been my fallback when I'm stressed, plus I'm trying to get myself to get in the habit of simply going to the gym 6 days a week. That means I can't be there an hour or even 45 minutes at a time because I'll start resenting the experience, or make excuses not to go. But an easy 30 minute workout every day for 6 days is not something to shy away from. It's easy, it's quick, so all it takes is commitment.
