I have been doing good these last couple of days, I have been staying within my calorie range and also have been trying to work out. I will update when it is time to weigh in.

I think I am ready 5 days ago

Well I have been right on track today with my eating, and even exercise for 30mins. I also decided to have a little talk to my fiancé about how I need his help. I know he was probably thinking this will last about a month, but at least he is on board. I am going to show him soon enough that I mean business.

Oh dear... 5 days ago

Am not doing well right now. Had a nasty eye infection for the last week or so, then a few friends came to visit for a birthday. So, so work or excercise, and lots of comfort/birthday food, not good.

Anyway, am definitely gonna get my ass in gear as of this week, would really love to be sub-210 for the new year.

It’s all going to be about routine for me. Early starts and some light exercise before my morning shower.



Another day with ups and downs 5 days ago

Yesterday I did pretty good overall. Breakfast I had a piece of vegitarian quiche that I made, and lots of fruit and vegies as snacks. Except for luch my fiancé went and brought home a taco salad for taco bell for me. Of course I ate it, I have a hard time saying no when food is actually in front of me. But when my fiancé said he wanted mc donalds for dinner I said no!! Instead we had home cooked meal of grilled chicken and vegetables. So overall I didn’t do so bad. But I know I have to find a way to say no to food that is right in front of me, or else I will never loose this weight.



Peas! i mean Please! 6 days ago

Ok, so i really need help losing 100 pounds. Actually, more like 50, or 75 but i try to reach higher, so if i score lower, i won’t be too disappointed. If there is anybody out there who is reading this, please please please please please reply. I’ll stop saying please if you do. I’m only twelvE! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO Do? I have to eat healthy, i know, but how????



Another day 1 week ago

Well I think I did pretty good today, the only thing I wish I had done differently was, not to go back for seconds at diner. Though really I had finished eating my plate and was just sitting there, trying to talk myself out of going up to have some more, when my hunny picks up my plate and fills it up with food. I should have told him I was done. Oh well, learn from my mistakes next time. Will weight in once a week.
