Well, I have been successful at staying away from the scale for 3 days so far and I'm very proud of myself. The first day was the most difficult, but now I don't even think of it much. The end of next week is when I see the dietician again, so I will weigh myself right before I go see her. My goal is to stay off the scale until then. I've been doing well with the 1500 calorie diet, eating more veggies and still staying away from most breads and sugar. I haven't skipped any meals. I'm not usually a veggie eater even though I do like them. I have found the easiest way for me to get the veggies in is to buy individual servings of veggies to bring to work and use the steamer bags or fresh veggies at home. I'm not fond of the canned veggies and they have too much salt anyway. I'm getting more fluids in by using crystal light or something similar to give the water some taste. My back has really been bothering me this week, so exercise hasn't been part of my plan yet. I do plan to start eventually, but would like to get some of this weight off first. I have been doing more walking the halls at work--at least more than I used to. As my back and breathing improve, I'm trying to do more normal activities that I haven't done in quite awhile. I'm finding it a little easier to manage these activities also.
