Day 20

I don't know if It's because I'm stressed out this week or what, but I don't feel like I've lost weight this week. I had multiple days where I was just really craving eating in the evenings. I didn't eat anything, but I did have 6 shakes/ soups on two of those days instead of 5. It's the intellectual answer instead of the 'eat everything in site' answer, plus it's only 160 calories. I think another contributing factor is that there were obvious changes in my body the first two weeks and I can't tell if there are changes in my body this week. I don't know if my perception of my body has changed, maybe I've already forgotten how I looked 3 weeks ago. I know I've lost weight, but my body proportions make me look really overweight this week. I still have the rest of today and tomorrow and Tuesday morning...so still time until my weigh in.

Accomplishment: Through all this uncertainty and stress I haven't cheated or done anything not on my diet. I've also exercised 3 times already this week! So while stressed, I've still succeeded.

Carlee...I'm so proud of you. Most people struggle through final weeks with food, you are doing it on shakes. I know you will make it through finals week and maintain your diet. You are just that strong. Not only will you maintain your diet, but I'm sure that you will make A's in your classes.

You're my hero...
