Pushing along!

Day three of the 13 day diet and so far so good!!!

I had a piece of toast with my black coffee and it was heavenly hahahaha it's amazing how we take the flavor of food for granted when we are not dieting lol

My lunch was amazing. I had a salad with lettuce and tomato and then I had a bunch of grilled asparagus and an orange for dessert. The asparagus tasted like a steak lol My taste buds were happy dappy!!!

My dinner should be good also. I will have a two egg omelet with ham and another salad!!!

Feels good to eat right!!

Sea ya!!

Good Start

After a couple days of eating healthy, there are less withdrawal pangs!!! It is amazing how much better you feel when you eat right. It is amazing how much happier you get with yourself when you feel a little control.

Day one of the 13 day diet went really well. By night time, I started to get really hungry, so I ate a sugar free jello. When you are hungry, a sugar free jello taste as good as apple pie a la mode! lol

My steak and salad for lunch was delicious!!! I had a tiny cupcake at work,, but I felt totally in control, because even though it was yummy, I did not eat anymore. I am winning little battles. By the end of the week, I should be nailing this diet.

I will continue to walk by all the chocolates and cookies that I see, and before you know it...BAM, 5 pounds will be gone!!!

Sea ya!

Happy New Year - 2011

Happy New Year...a new beginning. This is the year of the rabbit. According to Chinese tradition, the Rabbit brings a year in which you can catch your breath and calm your nerves. It is a time for negotiation. Don't try to force issues, because if you do you will ultimately fail. To gain the greatest benefits from this time, focus on home, family, security, diplomacy, and your relationships with women and children. Make it a goal to create a safe, peaceful lifestyle, so you will be able to calmly deal with any problem that may arise.

This is the year to hit goal weight. I did pretty good last year, but I screwed it up at the end. Oh well, can't look back...gotta look at the present and future to see what you gotta do to get where you want to go.

I started the 13 day diet today. I did all my groceries and cooked my lunch and had it ready to go for this morning. I had black coffee in the morning and then, dummy me, left this morning and I totally forgot my lunch. Luckily, when I went downstairs to the cafeteria, they had everything that I needed for lunch.... 3 hard boiled eggs, tomatoes and steamed veggies. Great....I am on track! I will have a piece of grilled chicken later and a sugar free jello with sugar free cool-whip.

I am not horribly hungry, but I do have my rough moments. I will get through them and I will survivive!

Today's Numbers:

Starting Weight: 170 lbs

Last Weigh In: 146 lbs

Today's Weigh In: 158.5 lbs

Weight Loss This Week: gained 12.5 lbs

Total Weight Loss: 11.5 lbs

Goal Weight: 135 lbs

I know that I did really shitty during the holidays!!! sucks, and all I can do is learn from it. Eating out of control is an addiction and it is very hard to be in control. I will do better next time!!!

Gotta find my inner strength so that I can accomplish my goal!

Sea ya!!

Sea ya 2010

We are less than two days away from 2011!! A new beginning.

I am happy with my weight loss ths year and I will make 2011 another good weight loss year. It's a really big year ahead for me and my family and I am looking forward to it.

Start thinking of your goals for the coming year and think of how you will accomplish them!! I wish everyone a safe and Happy New Year!!

Sea ya next year!!

Is it me or everyone?

It seems like every blog I read, that everyone has had problems with the eating during the holidays. Come January 1, everyone usually begins their diet and their new health kick lol and then you wonder, how long will it last. I know that I have to find my groove and it better last until I get to goal weight. It would really be nice to be totally at goal by my birthday....can you imagine that?

I need to start focusing and cutting back so that I am totally in the right frame of mind for the New Year. I can do this...I KNOW I CAN DO THIS! SO, let's do it and do it now!!

Sea ya!

Buckle Down

It's definitely time to buckle down and start getting ready for the New Year. I didn't even want to get on the scale today, but I will weigh in on Wednesday and the 31st. I have to cut back this week, so that the New Year will be easier to get started on losing some weight.

I thought I would be at goal weight already, but just like every year, the holidays were way too hard to stay on plan. Next year, I have to remember that I need to drop more weight before the holidays, so that I won't feel so guilty. I think the only reason I haven't felt so bad, is because I know I accomplished a good weight loss this year.

I think that after getting accustomed to this weight, I will be adjusting my goal weight. I will want to lose more than I originally planned. For now, I will first reach the first goal weight and then I will continue. I want to get my dress for the wedding in February, so it is time to buckle down and start the New Year the healthy way!

Sea ya!!

Holidays

I am officially going to stop beating myself up and I am going to take a break from the blogging until the New Year. I have so much to do and not enough time. If I find time, then I will blog and if not, then I just won't.

I plan on doing lots of exercise these last 2 weeks of the year and I plan on eating right. I want to start out the year weighing in at least at 145. I will be at goal weight by Valentine's day.

I have had a luncheon, practically every day. We also had office parties and weekend parties. Considering all that, I have not done too bad.

I am proud in what I accomplished this year and I am looking forward to being at my goal weight.

I will never quit, because when you quit, you surely will never win!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.....2011 Here we come!!!

Sea ya!
