Week one Check in

I went back to the clinic today for my one week check in.  I got weighed, we reviewed my blood test results and discussed how I am handling the diet.   The good news is I have lost 4.7 lbs in one week!!!! Yay!!!!  The not so great news is my blood test showed that my Cholesterol is high.  I have had it checked before and it was always really good ,so this is something that I will need to work on as well as contact my regular doctor about it. The Doctor says I am doing well with the diet and doing what I should.  I am very excited and hope I continue to make such good progress.  Anticipating how the other participants also did this week?  I think my biggest challenge in the coming week will be that I am driving my grandma to southern Ca this weekend and will have to deal with eating out and being out of my routine.   I am ready for the challenge though.
