Optimistic

Okay so the first week was hard and for some reason long.. Maybe b/c I had to concentrate on not eating so much all week so it seemed the days dragged. So I'm happy about the weight loss but keep in mind that I usually always lose a lot the first week b/c I go from eating unconscious to eating conscious.. lol l My biggest struggle is still wanting to eat what I want when I want. I start to think to my self that it's just not right that I have to watch what I eat then I say oh a few chips won't hurt and I go to grab them, but I stop myself b/c I can't have an excuse.. This is my body and how it works and I have to take accountability for it.. errrr I know rt it stinks... I use to tell people I was big boned and could never look skinny, but that was all a fabrication b/c when I lost all that weight on weight watchers I looked just as skinny as any other 125 pdr, so I know this statement (in my case) is not true.. Oh and seriously still making the kids their food is about to throw me over the edge.. lol I made mac n cheese last night and man did it smell good..but I didn't eat any, but I'm not sure if it's b/c I had the will power or the fact that I knew I had to weigh in.. I guess this week we will see if I have more will power.. I can definitely tell you I'm still hungry but my edgy feeling is starting to go away.. Tk you to my supportive husband who always knows the first week is always the hardest.. Tks for all the support bloggers.. Positive thought for the day is when I look at my kids the stretch marks just don't bother me as much..

  1. Congrats on the weightloss, girl! That's awesome. You are my inspiration, I didn't want to work out today because I was up with Skylar most of the night and when I finally did get to sleep, it was a light sleep for fear she would wake up again...but after seeing your weight loss for the week, I'm getting to it. YOU GO GIRL!!!!!

  2. WOW - CONGRATS on your weight loss :-) Terrific! It's the encouragement you need to assure yourself you CAN DO THIS!! Do you like Green Tea? Remember the bottled drink I always have in the garage fridge? Well I looked at the content today and 0 calories & fat. There are several varities - even in the diet. I have only tried the Citrus and enjoy it. Maybe that can be an additional sourse of water for you. I think it's probably bettere than soda, or maybe I think that because I'm not a soda drinker !! ha ha ha Keep up the GREAT work.
