I am one week into my diet, and it has been hard.

We had two functions during the week at work that involved cake (and another today), and I spent the weekend with family playing cards, where more cake, plus lollies and chips, were in abundance.

But I managed to avoid (pretty much) all of it.

I walked every day too, including doing a 45-minute walk before work every morning last week.

And the resulted weight loss was…1.9kg!

Given it was the first week, a big loss was expected. But I am still very happy with my progress.

Eight weeks to go.
