MONTH 3 New Beginnings

Im quite excited today. My third month on the diet resulted in new numbers - in the 160s.

I didnt find the first two weeks that good though. I was hovering in the mid-170s, not moving very much. I even had a faint panic attack when my numbers went up a little on a mid-week weigh-in.

What had happened? I follow the diet strictly, and havent changed my diet much?

Well, I realized that I had mistakenly eaten something wrong. Wrong in that the Applesnax applesauce my husband bought for me (through my cell phone instructions) was the Organic brand with "natural sugars." Same bottle and label, but different variety. It wasnt Applesnax Unsweetened.

So, unbeknownst to me, I was injesting sugar every morning for the entire week and didnt realize it. (Come to think of it though, it did taste sweeter... but obviously to my detriment.)

Lesson learned: Stick to the food list and check your brands like a hawk.
