I have no will power. I know its best to weigh weekly, but I've been weighing everyday. The scale just sits on the floor, calling out to me... I have an obligation to that scale to use it every day, dont I? U mean... wouldnt it be a waste of my $14.99 to not use it daily? Glad you agree. Anyway, I got on the scale this morning and I am down another pound. Total of -21lbs. Last nights dinner was chicken, salad and green and wax beans. There was so much veggies and very little meat.. but it proved to be good for the scale this morning, so I believe that will be a regular part of my meal plan.
For those of you reading this who are dieting/exercising, please go to www.loseit.com, sign up and request me as a friend. Its like a facebook site that you can log calories in/out and pounds lost. Its really helped me stay on track. After you've logged for a while, it can show you graphs of your nutrition, weight loss, and body mass index. Its been a tool that is very motivating for me. Friends can see what you've eaten, and what exercises you've done, and how much weight you've lost. It doesnt post your weight however, unless you post it. I, for one, have no problem with the world knowing how much I weigh.(251) Its obvious when they look at my body. And I believe that its helped me to become real about who I am, and who I want to become. I am in no way proud of how much I weigh but I am proud of the fact that I have set my mind to something, and I havent quit yet. To those of you who dont know me, I am imfamous at starting a new big project, and then quitting half way thru. Its something I HATE about who I am. This time will be different. I am 55 days into this weight loss journey (I started on before the first of Jan) and this is as far as I have ever come when I've attempted to lose weight. I usually make it to the end of January and then quit. This time will be different. I have 336 days left to acheive my goal. My goal is to weight 175 by my birthday next year. thats 76 more lbs I have to lose in 336 days. If I reach my goal before my birthday, I will attempt to hit 150, which is 101 lbs to lose in 336 days. This weight loss will be free of pills, or drops or any other supplement (Minus 5 hour energy- I use those on occassion -sry Kerri)
I've quoted this before but I love it "Today is here! Yesterday is gone, but today is finally here! This time will be different. This time I will reach my goal. Thank God, that today is finally here!"
To all of you who are struggling with your weight, come on this ride with me. I am in no way a nutrition or exercise expert, but I would love to help you in anyway I can. The first step is so hard, and the second and third steps are harder.. and the 57th step you may feel is going to kill you. Just keep going, keep pushing, because when you think that you cant take another step, and you cant go any further, and then you do, its the most exhilerating feeling in the world. Love you all, and God bless.
