Another day (With a grain of salt)

Wow, so this is my THIRD time trying to post. My computer keeps turning off on me. Anyways, OSU lost a heart-breaker to Northwestern today, it was horrible. Oh well, at least another day to hold myself accountable and record my successes. This morning I stepped on the scale and weighed in at 230 pounds, a whole TEN pounds lighter than I was only seven days ago. Now, I fully expect my weight-loss to subside after the first week, as most of what I lost was probably water weight. However, I expected things to slow down, and I am prepared both mentally and physically for the long haul, so no big deal. It was by no means an unsuccessful week, that's for sure. Tomorrow I will post my weekly calorie deficit and hopefully from that I can derive the actual poundage lost, and therefore what I should reasonably expect from week to week as long as I keep to my routine. Tonight was not the best, I had a few brewskies while watching the game, but I did skip dinner to make up for the calories. I have committed to running double my normal Tuesday/Thursday amount tomorrow to make up for the unreasonable amount of beer (accoring to my new rules) that I drank tonight, but hey, in college, I'm not going to split hairs on every occasion. I want a new lifestyle, but I want a new, HAPPIER lifestyle. I can afford to enjoy myself, especially after a stellar week, from time to time. So anyways, I'll record my daily progress here and get ready for a new, exciting week of living a healthier (overall better) lifestyle. Thanks for readin' peoples.
