It's been what? 9 months?

And yes, I'm still trying to lose weight. Not trying very hard, but now I am. I spent the weekend with other parents that have successfully borne children and then shed the weight and live a normal life. So, I'm giving the FBD another try with a new fervor. Let the journaling begin.

Nothing like sickness

To jump start the weight loss.

My last fews days eats have looked like this

Soup
Water
Lay back down
Soup
Water
Lay back down
Elbow macaroni from the Easy Mac package plain
Water
Lay back down and take 3 antiacids.

I'm just so happy to even think about regular food again. But a good little 5 lb drop is always good for the motivation!!!!

Back on the journaling wagon tomorrow

It's so hard to eat right when you are traveling. Especially when you are sequestered in a war room with food refresh every 3 hours. I did pretty well since the EVP we were working with is a Diet Coke fan - and he likes it like I do - ICE cold right from the can. The good news is I gained NO weight. I didn't lose any, but I didn't gain - just held the line. I'm ready to start losing again!

Thank you mother nature, thank you Wendy's

I'm taking a short break from food journaling since mother nature decided to throw a curveball my way via the good ole' once a month phenom. I have been so hungry I thought I would die. But I have been holding steady and not gaining so that's something.

Next, I have to thank Wendy's for NEVER exceeding my expectations with their quality of food. They have never cooked my hamburger all the way through and that would normally just make me mad, but today I'm happy. I tried it, despite my guilt, and it sucked eggs so now I know that I have successfully put that craving to rest. So thanks Wendy's. Love ya, mean it.

Back on the wagon tomorrow.

2 more days

I am changing my header to New Year, New Diet. By that I don't really mean diet - I mean more like New Year, New Eating or New Year, New You, or New Year - Lose that Big Butt.

So while I'm not necessarily going to blow it out over the next few days I AM going to get ready - get my fridge in order - get my house in order - get my mind in order to get healthy and make it a good start in this new year.
