Ups and downs

Down a pound then up .5 of a pound. I'm really lucky it wasn't more since I ate a few cookies. My daughter found a recipe for a red velvet cookie and made them. I couldn't resist!! Sorry, I'm so weak! I will continue to diet and try to get back on track! Until later, keep your chin up and mouth closed:)

Back from being off the face of the Earth!

Hey everyone! Well I hope all is well with everyone. Hurricane Ike caused a lot of trouble in my area! We lost power and the phone lines, trees and limbs down every where! It was a real mess. I have lived here a long time and never had a hurricane hit this part of the state with such force. I am still cleaning up from it! We are very lucky that nothing really serious happened to us. My parents had a lot of large limbs and a very big tree go down. One was blocking them in so I had to help my Dad it get out of the way. They are both having some health issues so I will also have to help them get their yard cleaned up. My dad has had some surgery this week and I have had my schools back to school night, taken my daughter to the doctor, had my motor scooter break down, etc, etc, etc!! Anyway I'm back and needing to get back on track.
I did lose some before the troubles hit but then I got off track without power. So Tomorrow I will begin again and give regular updates. I haven't heard of any more hurricanes coming!

Yikes, new start weight!

Oh boy I really did it this time! My start weight this time is 192.6. I had just made it under 179 on my last injection weight! That's almost 14 pounds I have packed on! Oh well, today is a new day and I will start the weight loss over again. I need to measure myself tonight also so I will have a start on that again. I know I'm still smaller size wise because my clothes don't reflect the large weight gain.
I was so hungry this morning, I think it is a lot in my head. I'm not usually hungry in the mornings. I am going to have to overcome my mental process of eating more and whenever I want. I don't have to be hungry to eat. I'll keep you posted. Nite!

Starting again with the last of the meds!

Well, I've started taking the medicine and I'm eating whatever I want. Truthfully I've been doing that for about a week. I would think I was ready to start but something would happen so I didn't start the meds. but ate what I wanted. I'm really scared to weigh!! I will start on Tuesday with the VLCD. Tomorrow I have a big dinner I need/want to go to for work. The little church in the town I teach in each year has a potluck dinner for the staff at our school and honors us. It is really nice and alot of work for them. They let us bring our families as well. This is the last event I know about until Thanksgiving so I really thought this would be the perfect time to start. My sister wants to go on this with me this time to lose her last 20 pounds. I really don't think she needs to lose any more because she looks fabulous! This diet really takes the weight off in the best way and I think most people can weigh more than they thought and still look great! Well I'll keep you up to date on my progress. Hope everyone else is having a successful journey!

Wed. Sept. 3

Well it has been a wild week. The Hurricane has caused all kinds of disruptions in the state. The Governor closed all of our schools and it has made things hard since we just got started. The rain is depressing and it has knocked out the electricity for a lot of us. I live in the upper part of the state so we get lots of people running from the storm. It makes everything harder to do when you double the population of an area. I'm just thankful that it wasn't as bad as they thought it would be.
I was going to start back on my diet the 2nd. I started eating like I was going on the diet on the 1st, then TOM hit and I decided to hold off for a few days. I have still continued to eat like I'm starting the diet. I will regret it because I know I'm gaining. I have been a chicken and not got on the scales. Tomorrow I will start the medicine and continue to eat what I want. I plan on doing the 40 day diet so I will be finished by Thanksgiving and can take a 6 week break from Thanksgiving to New Years. Then start again. I have been off the diet long enough to actually be looking forward to starting again. Well I'll keep ya'll updated!
