Three weeks already? It is hard to believe. Three weeks ago today, I started my journey to a new me with Nutrisystem. I honestly did not know where it would lead me, as by week two (and definitely by week 3) of all of my other diet attempts I would have already quit by now. It has been a vicious cycle for as long as I can remember. Here would be my regular scenario:
Day 1 of a new diet: Gung-Ho and super-excited about finally making a choice to be a better, healthier me.
Day 7 of a new diet: I would have lost some weight and be excited still.
Day 10 to 14 of a new diet: I would be getting tired of the diet.
Day 15 to 21 of a new diet: I would have definitely quit by then.
But, my friends, things have changed this time. I actually reached my 3rd week and I am going strong - QUITTING IS NOT AN OPTION!!!! Not this time.
Here is one tool of motivation....look what I received in the mail:
I received my first 10-pound NutriBear!!! By the time I am finished, I am going to have the whole family! lol.. I think it is great to receive these awards for your accomplishment. When I look at mine, it reminds me that my hard work is paying off and that I am closer to reaching my goal then I was the day before. I was excited yesterday because I received part of my order for my 2nd month! And I know that I like all of these foods and that makes me feel stronger than ever! Next month, I am going to knock it out of the park! I ordered a lot of chcolate this time! Yes, you can have chocolate on the Nutrisystem plan! And, honestly, I think their chocolates are better than most, as I was not a "chocolate lover" before starting Nutrisystem - now I am hooked on theirs! A diet that you can eat chocolate every single day? Yes, with Nutrisystem you CAN!
Okay - so how did I do this week? I was happy when I got on the scales this morning because I did not get to start any exercise at all yet. We have been sick for a whole week and I just haven't had the energy to start. I have been coughing like there is no tomorrow.
Anyhow, without further delay.....I lost 3.4 pounds this week!!! Which brings me to a total of 15 pounds in 3 weeks!!!! Here is the breakdown so far:
Week 1: 11 pounds lost
Week 2: 0.6 pounds lost
Week 3: 3.4 pounds lost

Total Lost: 15 pounds
I am beyond thrilled! By now I would have quit, like I mentioned before. But I have so much motivation, as much as I had when I started, and this is so unlike me!!!! Haha...I know that sounds bad, but that is the truth. But I am learning throughout this process that I didn't pack on this weight overnight, that I need to give it some time, and that I AM WORTH IT!!!!
