Very afraid to look at the scale tomorrow morning, but I will do it!

 I have chosen Mondays to be my weigh in day. 

I tried very hard this weekend, but had many moments of weakness.  While I was eating that small bowl of ice cream or that peice of pie I felt so guilty, so consequently I only ate a couple of bites, which was good.  I didn’t need to eat the entire bowl or plate.  I just needed my cravings satisfied.

I can usually gain 4 pounds on a weekend and then work hard all week to loose 2.  It is a constant battle.  It was even harder this weekend with all the tempting foods in the house.

I have a bowl of turkey soup packed in my lunch bag for tomorrows lunch and will not stray to any sweets.  If the sweets are still here in the house by Wednesday then I will very quietly freeze everything.   Out of site out of mind.  I hope!!!!!!!!!

I think this is one Monday I am happy to go to work.  I will be out of the house and won’t be tempted by food in the kitchen.  

Have a good evening.

Today is my Day 3 and I haven’t thrown in the towel yet!

Had a nice quiet day at work today.  Not many people in so did some surfing on the  net and relaxed.  Do not get many of those days so they are a real treasure for me. 

My husband was home today and did most of the getting food ready for tomorrow.  I made a wonderful broccoli salad for tomorrow and even opened up alot of food and placed on dishes.  Didn’t snitch a single bite.  Very proud of myself.

Tomorrow will be a very difficult day for me.  I plan on having 1/2 bagel for breakfast and then holding off till dinner.   Dinner I plan on eating, but not big helpings.  I will keep in mind all the hard work I have done this week and I am so afraid I will blow it.   I will keep telling myself I have to blog at night, therefore, I want to report good news on my page.  

I want to wish everyone a beautiful Thanksgiving.  We have so much to be Thankful for, our health, children and looking forward to a new year.

Today is Day 2 for me.  

I am so happy I found this website!  When I felt like cheating this afternoon at my desk, I opened up the blogs and that got me through.  So to that, I thank everyone!  Just reading how everyone is doing gave me the support not to cheat.  Might sound silly..but hey, whatever it takes so I don’t fall off the wagon.

I did very good with my eating habits today.  I am taking this one minute at a time.  Not what will I eat for lunch today, thinking about it at 7am.  I take it minute by minute.  Before I knew it, the clock was at 11:30am.  My morning flew by.  I wasn’t obsessed with thinking about my lunch or dinner.  

Life is good today.  I feel happy about my calorie intake today, I know I will be able to achieve my goal.  I have a very positive attitude about the weight coming off.  It did not go on overnight so it will take time to come off.  

I will take this day by day, minute by minute, blog by blog.

I want to thank you again everyone for writing how your day is going and all your positive notes that are helping you.  With your writings, it has given me a day that I can be proud of.

Have a good evening!

Ok,  I know I can do this!

I know it is hard to start something like this the week of Thanksgiving.  I am hoping that it will help me over this long weekend.  My goal is to be in the 130’s before my daughters wedding in September.  I know I can do it.  If I write my thoughts down then I will be responsible for my eating behavior and this will give me the strength that I need.

I am very excited about this blog and plan on writing a journal every day. Whether I am having a good day or a bad day, this will be the best tool for me.  If you find my journaling boring, I appologize, but my thoughts are my thoughts and I will write till my hearts content.

I have done very good today with my diet.  Also, I have walked the treadmill.  So, having said all that, Day One has been good for me.  I am very proud of myself.
