Over Already?

As much as I hate to say this, I might have to shut down AF, or at least take a leave of absence for a while.
Between work and a personal issue with family, I will not be freed up enough to track my progress, or lack there of.
I am to go to Canada next week for a business promotion, and then back to the states to assist with a transitional move for a close family member to Florida.
I will do my best.

Days 6 &7

Exhausted from work and working out, I am having to double post. Probably will have to the next few weeks.

Official weight- 197.9 !! I think a great loss considering!

All the past 2 days have been is work work work! I will do my best to catch up soon!

Day 5 Coffee

Coffee and no sugar or cream = breakfast and lunch. Not exactly healthy by any means and I expect Jillian Micheals on my door step any minute ready to scream at me, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
I had to put off my trip to the market, and now am beyond exhaustion to do anything but get through my day. Only 6 more hours until I am homeward bound. Cereal and a slice of Kraft cheese is dinner.
I think organization is going to have to be a main component of success.
Tomorrow is another day, again.

Day 4. Weakness

Can I just say that bacon is the yummiest, most delicious food anyone could have first thing in the morning? Yum-O! I tried to justify my morning fat-fest by having a boiled egg with it and drinking a big cup of water, but I do not think it helps any.
Day 4 is not going so well. I am tired, unmotivated and hungry. I think I need to clean out the refrigerator and cupboards of all temptations --- bacon---- and stock it back up with better goodies that make me drool. Off to the market then! And when I return, let the pain and panting begin. Oh yeah, it's workout day!

Day 3 OUCH

Owie! Yesterday, I finally started my regiment of self induced pain and torment. I really hate to exercise and truly detest it.
I have learned though, that my unwanted friend is a necessary friend. Like the friend you have in your life who always tells you how it is and never sugar coats things for you----- mmm sugar-----
My legs arms and back are aching, and I am stretched to my limit. I am ready to hit it again tomorrow and enjoy my icy hot and steamy showers.

Day 2. This is Going to be a Long Year

After weighing myself this morning, I think I have decided that weighing once a week is better than every day. My salty dinner last night left me bloated and not to slim and trim this morning.
I am however, starting my exercise regiment today. Sometime. Maybe tomorrow. No, no, I am starting today. I HAVE to start today. I set a goal of losing 8 pounds by the 30th.
Food is so tasty though, I really really love food. The variety, the flavors, the speed at which one can get food at 12am. It is grand. But I must find balance. I must over come my love for this caloric queen.
Until tomorrow dear friends.... ciao

Day 1

I hope with all hope that today will be the hardest day of all. I have not weighed myself in so long, that I awoke this morning,terrified to find my scale. "Today is the first day of the rest of the year" I told myself. And then it happened, I blacked out from disbelief, disappointment and TOTAL shock. the numbers that put me into an Anonymous Fatty coma, 201.7. This is a number I never thought I would see on the dreaded scale, yet here I am.
After my New Years eve recovery begins, so do the workouts and cabbage salads! No, I do not think cabbage salad is in the cards, but the croissants, hollandaise sauce and root beer floats are things of the past, at least the everyday basis past. moderation is my new pal dear readers, if there are any readers.
We will see what tomorrow brings and how long the ambition lasts.


Goal set for this month: Weigh self once a day.
