Fast

So, I am doing the Daniel Fast with my church. I am allowed to have fruits, vegetables and whole grains. I am on day 9 and have lost 5 pounds. It is a 21 day fast so we shall see if I can keep off what I lose after I add back in other foods like protein and dairy.

Whew!

I took off all the weight (2 lbs) I gained on vacation.

Now, to work on a dinner menu for this week that would be a compliment to my workouts.

Here I am again.....

Except this time, I have the support of my husband. Perhaps this year will be the year it comes off..........

Trying really hard.....

I did so bad over the weekend, that I was bound and determined to make some progress today (which I am), but my mind is telling me to eat more right now because I'm coming down from my weekend OREO high. Ugg!

Must get through the next few hours.

205....

Yeah, the scales totally went the wrong way. I am trying to walk on the treadmill everyday and watch my calories. I am also posting to Sparkpeople.com
I need to lose 6 pounds with a quickness because my reward for 199 is to go get my eyebrows waxed. If you saw them you might tell me to stop eating because I am in desperate need! :)

Biggest Looser

I know, 2010 and two years later and I weigh the same thing. But, my family after 5 years of asking, having finally ALL agreed to participate in our own version of the Biggest Looser.

Hopefully this gets us on the right track! Plus, I want the POT!

LOL

Around and around we go.

I wish I was focused and wanted to lose weight as much as I think I do. I often call my self names and feel bad about myself but it is obviously not enough to make me not eat that extra piece of cake. I am an emotional eater. The last couple of months have been tough emotionally. I keep gaining instead of losing.
Hubby has a video shoot in a couple of weeks so he and I are trying to limit sugar and white flour. Of course everything we have in our fridge and cupboards have sugar and/or white flour. Except for the fritos of course.
We are heading to the store tonight to stock up on some healthy food. I am afraid he will lose 20 pounds in the next two weeks and I will lose 2 weeks! :(
I am going on day 4 of 1500 calories a day. Wish me luck!
