Setting up a no fail plan...
on November 4, 2007 7:04 am
Ok I'm planning tomorrow as my official D-Day in the get my ass back on the plan man lol. So this morning I went and made a account at Fitday.com to start logging all my meals. So I logged in and added in my protein drinks information and all my vitamin information so it's all there and ready to go. It took forever to set all that information up by the back of the bottle listings but now everything is set to go. I want everything I take in there so everything I intake is listed and it's a no fail plan. But I can already see calorie wise I need to pick up skim or 2% milk for my protein drink. I'm not the sort of person who likes to have to think first thing in the morning so I have always done a protein/powder drink with a banana and milk with ice in the blender for breakfast since my wls. I seem to be able to run the blender semi-alert without injury.   So today is like trial day to ease into tomorrow so I have everything set. I dunno if its the time change or my fear of going into the new year with a weight gain ok that I'm exploding out of my pants but whatever it is I'm motivated!  I'm getting my hair done on Monday so I figure new cut new out a new outlook on life. Yes it's a little thing but it's a start ya know and also on Monday I'm starting a 5 Day Pouch Test.    Where I'm gonna do liquids for a few days and then ease back into high protein foods. This will do 2 things for me cleanse my pallet and help kick me off the carb craving bus I seem to be riding on and 2 get me in the zone and focused on weight loss again.

Hate something, change something...

  Well there is no getting around it I know this entire year I have been dropping the ball and ignoring my food and water intake. This 27 pound weight gain in one years time is a huge eye opener. That and the fact I'm now sucking it in to get into my pants again. The only bonus in all of this is that it's scared the hell out of me enough to get myself back on track. It's not gonna be easy like before when I was a newbie and was afraid of food but I have to take control here and no one can fix this but me. I'm sick of only having a Before pic lol I mean where is my After? You know. I have let the let go of my balloon here and let my life get away from me. I'm starting today and now. I'm not going into 2008 being 27 pounds heavier. I just will not do it nor am I gonna going into next spring feeling miserable shopping for larger sizes. In fact I wanna throw out all of my current size summer clothes so there is no going back for me. I got up this morning drinking my protein drink and looking at the Before and After photos like I used to for inspiration. That is what this board has always been for me a source of people and their inspiring battles and success stories. I wanna be my own success story!
