Urgh

My goal was to lose 3 lbs a week -- I lost 2.5 this week.  I really have to step it up this next week.  Here's my thing (and it doesn't make sense, I know) -- I know exactly what to eat to lose weight without exercising.  Not the exact calories, but the frequency and meal sizes.  This week we started exercising as a family and we got out 4 times.  The days that I added in exercise, I didn't lose at all or very little.  It doesn't make sense, but this is how it's worked for the last year.  And, obviously, if I didn't have to exercise to lose weight, why would I?  Only now it's not just about losing weight, it's about getting healthy and getting my family to start healthy habits.  So....I guess it's ok if I only lost 2.5 lbs.  I feel like I did pretty good this week as far as eating and exercising.  I did have a coke with my cheat meal on Saturday night and it was heaven -- but I still don't feel like I need one all the time.  I really want to up the exercise this week -- have my own exercise time and time to get out with the family.  My goal for this next week -- 3.5 lbs to make up for last week.
