Day Three

Yesterday was day 3. I am off on Thursdays and find it harder when I am at home than at work to adhere to Mr. Diet. My sister and son are living with me and we are in PA so we were having some snowy weather. We popped in a movie and they decided to have some snacks. SOOOO in front of me was popcorn, fritos, cheetos and bagel bites....evil.... I ate my diet food and avoided the evil temptation in front of me. I did ( again) eat some Cheerios .....

I'm not sure why it is is so damn hard to eat healthy..... all I keep thinking is that my clothes will fit better and I will look and feel better.. but when it's in front of you it's really hard to resist it.... I guess that's why I need to lose the weight...

Someone needs to invent 'good' snack food that is healthy that actually TASTES like fattening food. I know there are things like that out there but they taste like crap...

I haven't been good about exercising. I did it Monday and that was it. My intentions are good but I one step at a time. I can't expect miracles and everyone says Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels. This is coming from someone who has never tasted pizza apparently..

Day Two

Day two went pretty well. I managed to avoid the pizza..(even though it seemed to have grown eyes and was staring me down). I ate all the food I was supposed to with the exception of a vegetable serving. I did get hungry mid evening and ate a cup of dry Cheerios... This was my 'cheating'- a cup of Cheerios. It's sad when feeling guilty comes down to Cheerios.... I had the urge to chew... so I ate those... I have 25 days to go .. I can do this. I know I can... BUT everyone knows that when you can't have something you want it even more!!!!!!!!!!!!

On a lighter note, my cat is still making the MOST ANNOYING ' I'm in heat and need some action' noises EVER. I am trying to NOT get annoyed being as I am elated to have her back... but my patience is tested when all night long I am listening to that.... Listen...... I'm in heat too but you don't hear me whining about it! Have a great day!

Day One Complete

I am on day two now. Day one went very well.. I ate all the foods I was supposed to ( with the exception of my 'fat'serving for the day). I got on the treadmill for 25 minutes... Not great but better than nothing!!!!

I should have lost some stress lbs. My cat got out during the day and I spent a few hours in the evening searching for her... I don't 'let her out' and she is in heat. I was worried 1. that she wouldn't come back 2. that someone took her 3. that she would come back all pregnant and junk. I finally heard her making her "I'm in heat terrible screeching noises " and found her across the street behind my neighbor's trash cans. One worry down... NOW I just have to wait to see if her little belly starts getting bigger..... I have my fingers crossed that she kept her legs crossed while she was out there......

So far so good today.. I haven't cheated yet.. although my mother is coming over tonight and keeps asking if I want Pizza Hut for dinner. Pizza Hut is the devil when trying to lose weight so I hope that I am not THAT much of a wuss that I can control myself on Day 2!!! It's going to be a longgggggggggg month!!!!

Diet Time!

I am your typical yo-yo dieter. I lose 20 lbs.. its finds me.. I have been this way all my life. OK sometimes more than 20 lbs. I'm not extremely large but I certainly could stand to lose a good amount of weight. I just bought a month's supply of food from a weight loss company ( who's name I will not disclose in my posts due to the fact that I work in the weight loss industry and would prefer not to create 'issues') HOWEVER, I do plan on keeping up with my blog for the next month to discuss my progress, my exercise ( or lack thereof if that's the case). This is my therapy... the truth and hopefully writing here will help me to follow through so I don't have to post about my inability to follow a simple diet plan for a month!!!

I look forward to the next month- my goal is 10 lbs ( gotta start somewhere). My wish is to put my pants on without having to do squats to stretch them out. I have about 10 pairs of jeans in my closet that just laugh at me every time I look at them.... I start tomorrow... Good luck to ME!
