WOAH NELLY!!!

Okay, during my absence, I hit that mark...the "Oh Hell No" mark and it made me kick high gear into my diet and change my eating habits drastically. I hit the 200 pound mark!! Keep in mind I am about 5 feet 7 1/2 inches. It did not look like I hit 200 pounds, and lots of people said I looked as if I weighed the same. But I knew from the way that certains articles of clothing fit, that I had gained some weight.

So since hitting that mark, I have lots about 11 pounds. I have not weighed myself this morning, but I will soon. I have to get back onto a weekly weighing in schedule and not the daily one like I've been doing. That kind of defeats the purpose I think. But it does feel good to see the numbers go down, but hurts like hell when they go up a bit!!! LOL!!!

So Far So Good

So far this morning, have not had one single "Bad Food". No snacks, no soda......and as expected, i am hungry as heck!!! I'm a snacker, so snacking throughout the day is normal for me.

Last nights dinner was great. I had Teriyaki Stir-Fry. It was good, I am not a stir-fry person, so when I had it, I was quite surprised. The fact that I went out and had a sensible dinner was very surprising. Normally, when I am out, it is very difficult to have something sensible, as there is so much temptation. The fact that the awards banquet was a buffet style type of thing and I didn't lose my mind is a shocker. So maybe I will do good this time around.

I know that right now, I am really craving some Grits..."Yankee Style". For those of you who know the difference in how grits are eaten between those in the south and those in the north, you know exactly what I am talking about.

Tonights dinner should be good, I took some more chicken out. I think that is the only thing that is going to save me during this diet...the fact that I stocked up on chicken!!! So that should help me lose some weight, I also have to curb the snacking....don't know if I should just totally cut it out, or just do it in moderation. Will keep you posted on what I do!!

Today's Weigh In

I did my weigh in this morning, that is what one should do, weigh themselves in the morning. And the numbers are....180!! Not excited about that...but not upset either. I have to tweak some things, but have to get all this caffine out of my system before I do that!!!

Didn't end up getting that Philly Cheese Steak either...I had 2 BBQ chicken breasts and a baked potatoe that was so good!!! Since I had my "Eat Anything" day yesterday, today is not going to be that day. And I can't get another one anytime soon. I am only allowing myself one of these days per week.

No Posts All Week????

That seems odd, or maybe I'm posting and forgetting to press that Publish Post button. I don't know. Either way, diet is going so-so. I allow myself one "Pig Out" day to eat whatever the heck I want and I'm debating on if I should let today be that day or should I wait until tommorrow.



More than likely, I am going to do it today. I so want a Philly Cheese Steak from the local restaurant and regardless of what I eat (if it's not that), then I'm going to think about that thing until I get one.






Tommorrow is weigh in day, so we should see what the diet is doing...if it's working, not working, if I need to adjust some things or what.

(PLEASE NOTE: I did this post yesterday and for some reason didn't post it. I'm not sure if I"m forgetting to or if something else is going on, but here goes.)

So Not In A Good Mood...Trying To Curb Stress Eating!!

So today did not start off right at all. Had to be up at 6am to ensure I'd be out of the house by 8am!!! As I still had some clothes to dry, had to straighten my hair, eat, etc. Woke up at 6:30am and had to get oldest child up, which mean, I had to sit back and wait for him to come out of the bathroom before I could get ready.

Did not find out until 5 minute before I was to leave out the house that I had to call a cab to get where I was going. Which meant that I could not eat anything before heading out. Went to where I was going, sat there from a little bit before 9am up until almost noon for absolutely no reason at all!!!!

As soon as I got home, discovered there was a problem with phone line, and the dumb ass phone company (Comcast) seemed more interested in trying to sell me the Triple Play package then they were trying to fix whatever issue was going on. Couldn't fix anything to eat, so had to snack on some cookies. I have been home all of one hour and I just feel like eating everything under the sun, but I'm trying to refrain from doing so, as that would defeat the purpose of the diet.

Diet, Diet, Diet

Okay,

So this morning did not get off to a good start. I've already downed 1 Reese's Peanut Butter Cup (one pack that is) and I have not had anything else besides that. I am not a big breakfast person at all. Yesterday's breakfast consisted of 5 pieces of bacon. I have never, ever been a big breakfast person...NEVER!!! Especially if I have to cook it.

Yesterday, I easily had a early dinner that was well over 3,000 calories!!! Then I followed it up with a late dinner. NOT GOOD AT ALL!!!

Today, I will actually attempt to eat lunch and a sensible dinner. Will see how it goes. I will make a weight loss chart so that you can easily keep up with the progress or lack of progress that I make. I am about a size 16 right now, my ideal size is a size 10, but I will be happy with a size 12.

Will keep you updated!!

And the numbers are in.......

.....................My numbers are 5 feet 7 1/2 inches tall and weighing in at......175 pounds!!! Apparently I have lost some sort of weight between Decmeber 15th and this morning. I have not started the diet, on account...I'm really iffy about starting things in the middle of the week. So tommorrow is the day. I took a bunch of chicken breasts out to eat over the next few days or whatever.

Will keep you updated.

Diet Starts Today

Getting some good and healthy food in the house today and will start the diet today. I don't know about exercise, as my ankle is killing me. It is still so swollen and deformed looking, I don't know when I'm going to be able to walk on it correctly. So frustrating if you ask me. Still don't have a scale, but will have one later on today. I'll do an official weigh in at about 7pm my time and will post it by 10pm. I'm going to be truthful in the numbers, I have nothing to hide!! LOL!!! I know it's going to be up there, as I've been snacking my behind off since breaking my leg and being on bed rest. But we will see.

Have not started it. Waiting until Wednesday. Long story. Cast is off. Not much to post now.

Will post when I have some news regarding diet.
