Today I started a 5 day kick start to my goal to lose weight BEFORE the end of the year. My goal this week: lose 5 pounds. My plan: follow the 5 Day Inferno meal plan from TurboFire, which includes a serving of Shakeology each day, and to workout at least 30 minutes for 4 of the 5 days. My support: my family and my accountability partner for the week, Lynne Saine.
I started pacing the kitchen so I thought I better busy my hands and write about my experience so far.
My husband and I woke up this morning at 3:45am to do our workout. We did P90X: Back and Biceps and I followed it with Power 90: Ab Ripper 100. 
Then I made my breakfast, which includes 1 scrabbled egg, 2 slices of turkey bacon, 2 slices of wheat toast and 1/2 tomato, I ate at about 5:30am. 
It was light, and I didn’t know if it was enough to fill me up, but after it settled in, I felt great. I took the girls to school and came home. My usual would have been to have a snack, but instead I got on the phone with AT&T to get our service fixed. While on the phone I found myself in the kitchen. I would have normally found something to nibble on while I was on hold, but instead I walked away. Finally, at about 9:00am, I decided it was time for my scheduled snack, 1/2 banana and some walnut halves. 
When AT&T had come and gone, I again found myself pacing the kitchen, as I mentioned at the beginning of this post, wondering what I could eat. Instead I made myself a cup of hot tea and started typing. 
So far, so good, no unscheduled snacks. Thanks for allowing me to keep myself busy and document my journey through this week of jump starting my weight loss and not letting the holidays take over!
Until my next meal…..
