The week went just fine from a diet standpoint. I dont really have any struggles with food. For me it is really a mindset. Once I establish a mindset everything else is pretty easy. Sure I get tempted at times but not very often. I have a certain grouping of foods I eat every day that I really enjoy. Stuff like pickles, tomatos, celery, carrots, egg salad sandwiches, chicken sandwiches, salad, soup, green beans, brocolli, baked lays, bite size 3 muskateers (these are a necessity) and little 1/2 cup size chocolate ice creams and popcorn. I eat these types of things every day.
My weight this morning was 262.6 lb's. So I lost 2.8 lb's this week, overall I am down exactly 14 lbs's in 2 weeks. Not to bad, I cant really complain about that progress. I was able to work out once this week. I ran for about 2 minutes at a very fast pace, but then my heart almost blew up so I stopped and got on the elliptical for 10 minutes. Well then I was watching the calories burned in that 10 minutes and I said "this sucks, I am hardly burning anything off", so I got back on the treadmill determined to run for 5 straight minutes at as fast a pace as I could. I made it the 5 minutes with a 2 minutes cool down, so all in all I worked out about 19 minutes or so. You know I used to run the 400 meter in about 58 seconds or so, which is quick but not trackster quick. Now it takes me like 170 seconds. I am slow. Anyway the diet is coming along well. I am going to hit my goal it is just a matter of time. Thanks for all you comments and support. Peace out.

Keep up the good work! Slow and steady does win the race especially when it comes to dieting. Incidently, I started a diet today also, so I mostly was starving all day but I survived. I will let you know next week how I did.
