Very happy to see the weight continue to come off. I really felt I was losing this week, but it's nice to have it confirmed on the scale.
I only made it to the gym three times last week, but it didn't seem to hurt too much. Maybe it's like raising my calorie level to lose more weight; if I exercise less, I'll lose more... Probably doesn't work that way, though.
Today marks two weeks off of diet soda. I can't say that I feel any better or worse without it. I have found that I really don't care that much for tea, although I knew that coming in. So, my experiment ends inconclusively and I'll probably go back to the occasional diet soda. Nice to know I'm not actually addicted. I didn't experience any withdrawal symptoms, even though I stopped cold turkey.
Nine days and a wake up until summer vacation. My plan while I'm in the States is to go off my program, but try to keep to about my RDI in calories. I hope to log what I eat here on FS, but I'm not going to drive myself crazy trying to lose weight while I'm there. If I don't gain a lot during those two weeks, I'll be satisfied.
