Been a while!!!!
Oh my dear long lost buddies!!! I have fallen and fallen hard. A few weeks ago after many many weeks away I steped on my scale to reveal a scary number……209. This is the most I have ever weighed in my whole life!!!!
LOOONNNGGG, story short……I was off this summer….quit smoking successfully for 6 weeks……went back to work (very stressful job!) and BAAAAAMMMMM!!!!! I didn’t care about anything. I forgot about ME! I ate whatever I wanted, AND started smoking again!!!! UGH!!! Those 6 smoke free weeks, down the drain!!!!! All that work to get almost 20 lbs gone….I go and I gain it all back PLUS three extra!!!! Bottom line…I just didn’t care. It’s time to start caring. I started this journy back in January of this year and am worse off then where I started.
Now to focus on the positive….I DID quit smoking for 6 weeks. I did it once and I didn’t die, so I know I can do it again. Also when I steped on that scale I knew that I had a problem. So September 11th I saw…209, then lost a few and when I weighed myself this friday I am down to 202. So that is a positive.
What I am doing seems to be working for now. For breakfast I have yogurt, then a couple hours later I have a bannana, then at lunch I usually have a grilled chicken salad and some apples with a lil’ bit of dip. Then differant stuff for dinner and snacks once I get home. I basically am just trying to eat “healthy” and not binge on junk food. This is working for now, and when I see a gain I will reevaluate.
So I’m back. I want this. I want this BAD!!! I want it to come January and say wow, I had some ups and downs, but I am finishing this year with a weight loss. My goal is by Jan. 1st 2010, I will be back to 189 (my lowest weight of this journey.) I did this once, so I can do it again!!!!

Hey - its okay - You can do this. Wipe the slate clean , forgive urself - it happens. Call tommorow day 1 - Start over & never stop - start slow & build up.x
Good for you. NEVER NEVER forget about yourself, Its the number 1 thing you have to do first, before taking care of anything else. Do a lot of deep breathing while at work, and say a little prayer.
Welcome back.
This is a lifelong process. You can do it. Your eating plan seems fine. Hang in there. Marge
