Engine 2 Diet - Day 11

It feels like I've already been doing this for weeks upon weeks. I'm not sure if it's because of all the temptation of cheating of the holidays, or just the holidays, but I can't wait until I stop noticing "how long" it's been since I started. Perhaps it's the daily blog. If that's the case, maybe I'll change the labeling up a bit so as to not count the days.

I weighed in this AM again and am now down to 236.6 on my scale here at the house. By my calculations, that's about 7 lbs dropped. You have no idea how surprised I am to see this work the way it has. I'm not sure how much of this is water weight or not, but who cares. It seems to be working. Also, I'm quite surprised after all the food I ate last night. Loomi and I walked around the mall for a couple of hours yesterday and when I got home, I was ravenous!

Breakfast:

• Burrito left overs (whole wheat tortilla, meatless ground, cabbage, tomatoes, guac, green salsa, peppers and onions)
