I broke and had to weigh in after my five days of attack. The results are: 2.5 kg down! YAY! On the downside, I think the change in diet really screwed up my m

enstrual schedule because for some reason, TOM decided to come today (a week and a half early). This may have some impact on the scales but it's okay - I know I'm going in the right direction.

On another note, I have decided to do my PV(Protein and Vegetable days) and PP(Pure Protein days) in a 1/1 pattern. Last time I did Dukan, I did 5/5. This was obviously successful, but I am going to see how 1/1 goes - I think it will be easier. I will weigh in next Sunday to see if the scale moves with this pattern.

I went running on Saturday, like I have been for the last 3 weeks and it's

really amazing how much improvement there has been in such a short time. One of my lifetime goals has always been to LIKE running. And I think I do! I'm still not any good at it. I get tired quickly. I stop when I get a side stitch. But, I'm doing it. I want to try to up it to 2x per week, so we'll see if I have a late start this week. I'm so very excited about the future. AND I got some hot new boots today for way cheap. I think I might go back to get some black ones :)
