I did not have a very good weight loss week - only two pounds. While I would have liked to have more, I'm okay. In total, I've lost 21 pounds. That is fantastic!! I'm sure next week will be better and I'm really looking at the calories, fat and carbs I consume this week. It will be just fine. I am back in my favorite pair of jeans and that's makes me very happy. :)
I am really considering quitting smoking again. AGAIN. I do want to quit smoking. It is a hassle, expensive and unhealthy. It causes a lot of stress. And I just bought a new car today! I could use the extra money on my car payment and I sure do not want to smoke in my beautiful new car. I didn't smoke in it on the way home today. Even without the car, I have been thinking about it. I'm changing my lifestyle to be healthier and slimmer. Not smoking just seems to go along with that naturally. I had made a deal with myself this morning that if I got the car today, I would quit. So it's in my head now and my first big decision is how? Do I go cold turkey (ugh) or use nicotine patches? The patches do help, but going cold turkey means that nicotine will be out of my system sooner than 8 weeks on the patch. Something to think about, for sure.
