i lost 4 pounds this week.
i'm definitely not starving myself, so i was a bit shocked yesterday morning when i got on the scale and saw the change in the numbers. i'm eating between 1200 to 1300 calories a day, and concentrating on eating the right number of servings of fruits and vegetables.
my zealousness in dieting last until sunday when i made four dozen cupcakes for work. they were the promised prize for a contest we had at work. of course, i had to test the cupcakes and the new frosting recipe i tried out as well. i ended up eating three of those little buggers, and they were good too.
i also went running twice last week. this is huge, because last year whenever i tried to run, my calves were in so much pain i just couldn't keep going. this year, it's just the normal aches and pains. i'm loving running again, and can't wait to get back in the groove.
not on the diet:
oh, and if you're looking for the best frosting recipe ever, then try this one here at pioneerwoman.com. it's seriously good. i even made my own version of this frosting by adding 3 tablespoons of hershey's special dark cacao and a teaspoon of cinnamon. yummy!

Good job sis. Don't stop even if you get discouraged. Just keep on going that is the only was it's going to work. I went for a bike ride today thinking crosstraining would be a good idea. It kicked my butt. But I'll do it again. Love ya
You sound just like me:)
Keeping within that calorie range is great, I've been trying to do that as well. You can totally do this! :)
