You know the diet's working when you can't go up a flight of stairs without blacking out.


Seriously, even with just a short flight of stairs, I need to take it slow. But I take that as a sign of progress.

And think stairs are difficult? Try going on the treadmill. I can only do half an hour now (power-walking, no more running), but I also take that as a sign of progress. As long as I burn off at least half of the calories I consume throughout the day, I can be confident that my diet is working.

Today, I ate: 1 bowl cereal measured (150), 1 cup coffee with half & half (20), 1 South Beach fiber bar (110), Lean Cuisine dinner (230); Total of 510. The treadmill told me I burned 266 cals, plus I did arm exercises and sit-ups. That rounds off rather nicely to a total of about 240 calories for the day.

  1. You should be ashamed of yourself, writing this sort of trash where any impressionable teenage girl could read it and take your advice!

    That means I don't care.
