Week 2

Well... this week did not go as well as I had hoped. First with our anniversary and then with my Mom's birthday, I sort of fell off the wagon! Okay... maybe I didn't fall off.. I was thrown a good 100 feet!! AHHHH!! So instead of being able to report my weight loss, I have to admit, I still weigh the same! However, I am back on track and ready for big numbers! Thanks again for all your support

1st Official Weigh-in

So, even though it has only been 5 days, I decided to have today be my first weigh-in because for some reason, I do better mentally when Monday is the start of my week! So here it goes! This morning I am down 4 pounds. It was becoming increasingly easier until our Anniversary where I had a 13oz steak (don't worry, I didn't even eat half of it!) and my biggest weakness... bread and vinigar and olive oil!!! Every time I have tried to diet, and I have one day or even one meal that I blow, it has set me back pretty far because I continue to eat that way once I have broken my healthy style. This time I was able to jump right back on the healthy wagon..so I'm pretty proud! I'm also excited because I was able to start back at the gym today!!!

Thank you all for your words of encouragement and advise!! They really do help!!

Day 1.

Don't worry, I'm not going to journal every day in this "weight loss journey" but day 1 is definitely a notable day! Day 1 has been....crappy! For anyone else out there who has "dieted" have you ever noticed that you can be so busy all day you forget to eat, but as soon as you tell yourself your dieting, ALL you can think about is eating? I have been famished all day with a horrible headache and been incredibly irritable! Thank goodness for this blog because all day I have been saying to myself "screw this.. I will start another day" but then I would remember that I would have to write about that.... and I can't disappoint my biggest fans! :D haha. I've heard it takes a few weeks to get over the migraines and mood swings, so.... here's to day 2!

Here it goes!

Tonight, while watching "The Biggest Loser" one of the girls got on the scale to be weighed and Adalie said "Hey look Mom! That looks like you!" WOW...that really caught me off guard! So I have made a decision to make some major changes! Now, why am I putting it on my blog? Mostly for some journaling, but also so I have some sort of public accountability! I'm going to do some journaling and frequent updates. Don't worry, I won't state my actual weight, or post pictures for the sake of everyone else! Please feel free to give me feedback, advice or encouragement! I'm going to save the journaling on the right hand column under Biggest Loser. Here goes nothing!
