So I lost 2 pounds over the last week and for some reason, I didn't find much satisfaction in that. My friend is being encouraging by pointing out that 2 pounds a week translates to 8 pounds a month and 40 pounds in five months. That made me feel better but I still want to lose more. I'm gonna keep up my diet and exercise. Oh I almost forgot to tell you, I'm starting a vegetarian diet. I've done this once before and I lost a lot of weight pretty quickly so I'm going back to what I know works! I'm still going to track my calorie and fat intake but I'm just going to cut out the meat. I'll probably add more protein supplements to my regimen so I'm not depriving my body of necessary proteins. Any suggestions?
