One step forward and... Okay. The scales say I gained two pounds. I don't know how I did it, but I did. I am pissed, to say the least. Today I took the kids swimming and I can't take my frozen dinners with me. I do love them, but there are times that I need to be able to "eat on the fly." Eating on the fly is always an issue with me.. I tend to overeat and all of the wrong foods. Today was no exception. No pity party, nope. Just back on the wagon tomorrow....

Today is Father's Day. Sad for my daughter, because her dad is not really involved in her life. We didn't even send him a father's day card... I just don't think it is necessary when he doesn't bother to come see her for months at a time. My neighbors got back from vacation today (Yay!)... they had a blast at Myrtle Beach. They brought Emmy home two tee-shirts and me home a huge pink bag for swimming stuff. I love the bag.. it rocks.
I am feeling full.. and just had a yummie veggie roll up and vegetarian chili. I have ordered about $100 of the Kay's naturals products.. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that protein cereal. I think it is the most nutritious cereal on the market. I look at stuff the stores carry and basically NO NUTRITIONAL value.. no protein. Or maybe 2 grams. So lousy for your blood sugars. The Kay's has 9 g of protein, fiber, and really tastes terrific. I am thankful that I can order these products to help me in my weight loss. And to Bistro, MD for making the most delicious, satisfying meals EVER. I can't imagine the state of my health without those meals.
Anyway, thanks for reading me. I calculated that it will take me about 13 weeks to reach my goal, maybe longer. By my birthday I hope to be in the jeans that have been hanging on my wall for months now.

Today I am posting after a "my night." My nights are when you go off of the food plan, once a week. You can have anything you want, but in moderation. Well, I took my "my night" but I felt like I was cheating. I guess I have lived with the on/off school of thought: you are either on a diet or you are off. I have never really learned how to allow myself some liberal food eating once a week. Today, I'm back on my plan. Yay! I am discouraged though and fear the "my night" will cause weight gain. My nutritionist says that my night actually helps jolt your metabolism and can encourage weight loss. It is so hard learning how to enjoy myself and enjoy great food (and whatever I want to eat!) for one evening a week. But, I think it's a good thing because if I live a restricted life and eat nothing I'm not supposed to... I am sure to fail. This way, I WILL SUCCEED!!!!!!!!!! :)
I am VERY PROUD of myself for jumping right back on my plan. Yeay me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello. Today I hauled my own washer from lowes to home. I got it out myself, used a dolly to wheel it in, and am hooking it up. I am VERY proud of myself. Thirty pounds ago, I would not have been able to do this without feeling horrible. I feel good and it feels great to break a sweat! I can't WAIT TO SEE what I can do at 240~!!!! I lost 2 more pounds. Yay me!!!!!!!!!!!! :) I am really appreicative of Baricare products which I use faithfully. Expensive, sure? But they are WORTH IT!!!! High protein foods gives me a feeling of satiety that I really need to do well.

Hello everyone ~ I want to eat everything. lol.
Today I tried to write a check and found that FIVE YEARS AGO... I bounced a check. That doesn't seem right, but I have to pay it. Today I have to install a new washer cuz mine broke. Life is just sooooooooooooooooooo hard. I was reading a lot of posts about wanting to eat inside of your head even if your body is full. I am experiencing that same issue on this high protein diet. The protein keeps me 100% physically full, but mentally.... oohhhh nooooooo. I am so thankful to read the blogs of others in hopes that I can, too, have success on my wht loss journey. :)

Today is the second day of my start goal date, which is Sunday, June 14th, 2009. Another day, another pound lost. :) I have lost another pound! Horray! I don't know how to put a weight loss graphic on my profile, but I want to figure out how. I'm glad I have lost another pound. When I follow the diet I've been given, I lose weight like crazy. I think (guessing) that I am a fairly active person for being so overweight. I do try to incorporate a physical activity of some kind in my daily life. One thing that worries me is loose skin after weight loss, so I am losing it slowly and trying to eat plenty of collagen building foods. One food I am eating is raw strawberries (nothing added) and raw blueberries. I am very thankful to have the ability to eat any food without getting sick or throwing up. I am also very thankful that I have all my digestive parts so that my body can glean proper vitamins and nutrients from whole foods. My skin is starting to glow and my body is so much more balanced when I eliminate sugars and flours from my diet as much as possible. I found a great new cereal, from "Better Balance"... it is high protein with 9 g of protein per serving and only 100 cals. Wonderful! :) Well, that's enough blogging for today. Thanks for reading me.

I'm back in the saddle!!!! Today I turn a new page both in my diet and in my life. I am striving to be stronger, healthier, and want to lose this excess burden I have been carrying around my whole life and live again.
