Week 1, I lost lots of weight, a whole 2.7lbs! Woo-hoo! Our team won because of points, life was good!
I celebrated by having five large slices of pizza with sausage, chicken, mushrooms, and pineapple with low sauce. And a giant chocolate muffin. And half a bag of Cheetos. And some Cheez-its. And then during the week I got lazy and had reduced-fat string cheese every meal.
And then I wondered why I was so headache-y and bloaty and sick.
SHUT UP! BIRD.
I didn't lose any weight this week (unless a miracle happens between now and tomorrow), but I didn't gain any either, at least not permanently. And I learned a valuable lesson about what my body can handle.
My body can handle lots of water.
My body laughs at Mountain Dew. It wants absolutely nothing to do with it.
My body loves and thrives on lots of exercise. Bring on the long walks!
My body wants lighter food, and lots of it!
My body is done with pizza. It told me, "Jenny! Knock it off with the pizza! I can't run on this!"
I can't wait to see that body through all of its many life lessons.

I am loving the disapproving seagull. I'm going to swipe it for future use.
