Okay...finally did my weigh in and fortunately I didn't gain weight over the last 11 months. Actually lost 8 pounds. But I can't celebrate too much because if I had stuck with the program I would probably be 80 or 90 pounds lighter now. Oh well...you live and you learn. Completed today's walk with no adventures:-).

Losing 0.1 kg a Week

Wow...I can't believe it's been almost a year since I've logged on here. Unfortunately, I fell off the wagon. I don't think I've gained much weight but I'll weigh in later today and we'll see. I'm having some issues with my blood sugar again and that has made me really take note of what I'm eating and my lack of exercise....so....here I go again. I reread my journal entries from last year and it's really depressing that I was so enthused and doing so well and just stopped. I don't ever remember making the decision to stop...I guess I just thought I'd take a weekend off and then that was it. But, no sense crying over spilled milk. I'm just going to jump back on this horse like I've never fallen off...lol. I've started walking again some and I'm going to start back on the food and exercise diary today (it's amazing the difference that makes). I think I'm going to start by reducing my calories to 1500 per day and once I get comfortable with that I'll go down to 1200. That may be why I failed last time. I drastically reduced my calories (I was taking in about 700-900 calories a day) and I felt so deprived all the time. I hate this obsession that I have with food. I envy people that just view food as fuel for their bodies. I don't know that I'll ever feel that way. But, I'm trying to learn that everything is acceptable in moderation. That's my problem...I have no self-control when it comes to food. I'm normally a very mature person, but when we start talking about supper, I turn into a spoiled 2 year old! It's so frustrating! I'm about to go put some pinto beans on for supper now and then I'm going to go walk...nice, little stroll....nothing over the top. So...here I go again! Wish me luck!

Haven't updated in a week or so. Still going strong on the diet. I truly believe that this diet will change my life. I can't believe that I've never tried simple calorie counting before...God knows I've tried everything else.
Last week was a pretty stressful week but my husband's heart cath came back clean (Yay!) and I've been so relieved that I've celebrated a little bit too much the last week (with laziness, not food:-). I really haven't done any exercise at all, just been chillin' at home with my hubby. So, I've got to get back on the exercise kick. I'm thinking about getting a recumbent bike to use at home but I'm not sure where I would put it:-/.
I haven't weighed in again yet. I think I'm just gonna weigh in once a month. That way, hopefully, I'll be able to see some significant numbers and not get discouraged.
I absolutely love this calorie counting thing. I have the app on my phone so even if we unexpectedly decide to eat out, I can figure out what I can have and not run over. And this diet definitely makes me choose healthier foods. With calorie counting you either have to make healthier choices or starve...lol. I've always had the dietary habits of a 10 year old. Hamburgers, hot dogs, pizza, tacos, or fried chicken fingers. That pretty much sums up what I've eaten over the last 20 years. Now I'm learning to bake and grill foods (pretty yummy). Who knew there were so many recipes for chicken!?! Anyway, I'm still not what I would call a "healthy" eater...just a "healthier" eater than I was a month ago. Baby steps:-)

Okay...I've managed to maintain 1500 calories a day but my fat content has been too high the last couple of days. I've had a kind of hectic schedule and we have my husband's heart surgery coming up so I've been a little stressed. Once this week is over I'm gonna try to reduce the amount of red meat we're eating and incorporate more chicken and fish into our meals. My blood sugar is still coming down pretty good...it was 91 this morning. That's the first time I've had a reading under 100 in the morning since I was in the hospital last year:-). Working out on the Wii Fit 3-4 days a week. Just 20-30 minutes. But it's also getting warm outside so I've been working around the house and yard. According to the scales, my weight loss is right on par with the records on here so yay! I know that having this diet journal has helped me tremendously. I've never been this aware of exactly what I eat and how much of it. Hope this new awareness helps me to finally get back down to my high school weight.

Feeling very proud of myself this morning. Last night was hard. My family went to a local celebration called "First Friday". They have tons of little vendors selling food out of food trucks, everything from bar-b-que to fried twinkies and fried oreos to cotton candy, funnel cake...well, you get the idea. My husband and mom ate from the vendors at First Friday...I had nothing. I got a polka-dotted balloon and a little flower princess wreath to go on my head instead of food:-). After that we went to a local restaurant (one of my very favs) called Top O' the River. It's one of those places that brings the cole slaw, mexican cornbread, onions, etc before the meal for you to "snack on" and they have a "riverboat special" which is fried catfish (4-5 pieces), a ton of fries, and about 5 hushpuppies. That's what I usually order. Instead I tried to order the child's plate of grilled chicken strips but they wouldn't let me order the child's plate so I ordered the regular plate of grilled chicken strips and asked her to bring me a to go box before my food arrived. As soon as it got there, I put half of my chicken in a to go box along with over half of my fries (for my puppy). Then I ate the other half of my meal with one piece of mexican cornbread and had my left over chicken this morning for breakfast (I don't really like breakfast foods). So...I probably shouldn't be this proud for simply not eating an insane amount of food that should never be served to one individual person...but I am:-). Yea me!
