239.8

Apr 13, 2009

I am finally in the 230's, it is on the high end but hey I will take it. I went through several weeks of not losing a single pound. I was very frustrated because I have been exercising at least 6 days a week and staying within my calorie range (I keep a food journal on the Realize Band Website.

I was beginning to feel like a failure because I knew that I was doing the right things. So, I started a post on OH to seek advice and someone posted that I should watch my sodium intake. LOW AND BEHOLD, that was it. I was eating tons of Boca products for lunch which had over 400 mg of sodium and my soup had over 900 mg, but I added up my sodium intake and it was over 4,000 mg and I was not done eating for the day. 

Needless to say, I started watching my sodium intake. I have begin preparing all of my own meals and keeping my sodium intake around 2,000 mg and the scale has started moving again. I am so grateful for OH. I will have to find that post and thank the wonderful person for such great advice. I will post again when I am in the 220s.

My goal for my Cancun trip June 13-20th is to be in the 220s. I have roughly 7 weeks. Wish me luck.
