Lost Weight!

So yesterday was my second weigh in on the Weight Watchers diet...and I've lost 3 pounds! It's not a lot, but I think that if I stay on this pace, I could lose around 30 lbs by the 1st of December!

I've done ok on my diet. I haven't gone over the weekly points allowance, but I have to say, there was a fair bit of cheating day to day, so I used up all of my activity points and extra weekly points and came up right to the very last point when Saturday night rolled around. That being said, I've been working out every single day, which is more than I've worked out in my entire life. Today, I ran my 3rd week of C25K - which is alternating 90 sec run 90 sec walk, 3 min run 3 min walk - with the runs at 6mph. It doesn't seem like a lot, but when I started, I was jogging at 4mph and couldn't do more than 60sec. I'm also seeing a lot of improvement in my abs and yoga workouts that I do after my runs. My flexibility and strength have greatly improved, and today I noticed that I am returning to my resting heart rate a lot faster after intense running.

As far as food goes, I've got a way to go. I am trying to make a point of fitting in my Omega 3 fatty acids, so I celebrated my weight loss yesterday with some salmon sashimi. To be honest, I'm spending a lot more of my energy on working out, and I think that once that becomes a habit, I will really start incorporating food into the plan.

Next week, my goal is to be down to 207. The overall goal Weight Watchers set for me is 203, so I'm getting close! Here are the Stats for this week(The loses are measured from the beginning measurements)
