Can't believe its almost done!

So we have ended week 5. This means only 1 more week and I will be able to work out and eat breakfast! I am very excited for this to start, and what this next step will bring. This will be step 3 in the process and will last 3 weeks. Then we will be on to step 4 and I get to start adding in regular food! Wohoo! Why am I so excited for this?

I have been suffering along these last 5 weeks, just eating a taco salad consisting of lettuce, tomatoes and taco meat. I miss my cheese and sour cream. I averaged Mexican food 3 days a week before this diet. No I won't be able to do that every week, but 1 a week would be awesome. It's my favorite food!

We joined a Gym this week. We will be going to Flex 365, behind the Chipotle. We are super excited to get started there, I am planning on doing some weight lifting to tighten all this extra flab from loosing weight and doing the elliptical. I may eventually do some aerobic classes, because I love me some Richard Simmons and I like to dance and exercise. 

So week 5 didn't have as much stellar weight loss that I wanted. I lost 2lbs. this week bringing me down to 265.8. I wanted to loose so much more but my body is slowing down on how much weight I am loosing every week. I am still happy to have lost anything. I am hoping with adding in exercise I will continue to loose inches and weight. I go on Monday for my next 10 day appointment so I will let you all know how this goes.  I will include before and after pictures on my next post. I haven't had a chance to take them. 

I got the sweetest message from a friend of mine on Facebook the other day and she has joined the program with Dr. Joe now as well. I am so very excited for her and this journey she is going on. I encourage anyone who needs to loose weight and has tried so many diets and failed to look into this diet. I have never felt more determined or on top of things. 

Hope you all have blessed days! Until next time, 

Faith, Trust, Love, Pixie Dust, and Me!
