Its been several years of not being here and I have wondered around not being accountable for my actions.  Today is a new beginning for me.
I have overcome soem hurdles this year and still tackling the demons even today.  But I need to worry about me.  So with me being healthy in mind, body and soul I can be a better mom and individual.
So I let a few pounds creep back.  Im taking control today.  Will blog daily to ensure I am holding myself in check.  I welcome all comments. 

I will take measurements tonite to get those in as well.

On to challenge ths wonderful Thursday!

Well, I didnt weigh thismorning, tomorrow is my accountability day to two of my friends that are posting to me as well.  
Drank alot of water today....Had 2 proteins slim fast and a chicken salad, didnt eat much of the salad, afraid to....dump alot on salad still.  Tonite one of my daughters has dance for 2 hours, so I am thinking I will go work out some.  Im really tired though.  but you know I have to start this exercise thing.
I will report the weight loss/gain, I hope loss tomorrow.....

Well today, i avoided the scale.....it was HARD, but I cannot freak out every single day!  lol!  Its going to be very difficult to avoid tempations today.  Office is taking all admins at to lunch at a Italian restaurant that is YUMMY!  So I have looked the menu and stickin to a grilled chicken ceasar salad.  so this evening I will have a slim fast protein drink for dinner.  Who knows it might do something to bring the weight down....Keep my fingers crossed. 

Last night did well at my brothers little get together.  I stayed right on track!! yea!

Well it was too good to be true.....I got on the scales today....showed 195.2.  So then I relooked at what I ate yesterday.  during the day, breakfast and lunch had protein, then came home and the munchie monster kicked in....had a piece of kraft cheese...then while cooking for my kids I made a chicken ceasar salad, with croutons, shredded cheese and REGULAR ceasar dressing.....Sat down and gae myself 15 mintues to eat (per pouch test diet) finished dinner got their dinner set, the had shrimp and chips.  Popped a few shrimps....then headed off to all the girls activities.  Then after nine, that stupid munchie monster came back....had some potatoe chips with cocktail sauce and 1/4 of a turkey burger....what was I thinking.  No more munchi monster invasion.  Plus no exercise yesterday....I was tired.
Hopefully tomorrow brings a new day.

Well the weekend scared me a bit.....with eating. I thought for sure I was going off the deep end.  Friday night, Dominoes Pizza came to my house....I was tempted and caved.....felt like dog doo.  Only had once slice of the toppings....no crust.  So then I get up and weigh on Saturday and saw that I gained 1 pound back....so saturday did very well, did yard work and sunday, really didnt eat much, had slice of turkey and then a polish sausage for dinner.  then yard work.....all day!  My arms are killing me now...but anyways back to the weight and diet issue.....well got on the scales since last wednesday, I have dropped 6.6 pounds!  Woo HOOOOOOO!!! So just gave me more of a high than that pizza did on Friday night.  lol!  going to walk tonite and get some cardio in.  My arm is ready to fall off though!
More tomorrow.  Eating a bed of romaine lettuce with bar-b-que chick for dinner.  protein drinks are not giving me the chew satisfaction and I am missing that. 

Well I am beginning day 2 of the 5day pouch test.  I weighed today....was in shock..dropped 2 pounds.  Down to 197.  I got on the scales three times.  OMG!  I was totally amazed.  It was really hard last night, when fixing dinner for my children.  I realized that is when I am grazing...it was fvery difficult not to snag a bite here and there.  Its weird how you become so aware of all the wrong things you do......Oh well, this weekend will be the test.  Im just keeping my water bottle filled and an eye on the goal.  Its supposed to be nice here this weekend.  If the rain will just go away...I will get some yard work done....great exercise!!!!

I will blog on Monday!

Well I have to come to the conclusion that i need to get a grip on things.  I didnt go thru what I went thru to just eat myself to "big" again.  I have a new found look on life and want to enjoy it to the fullest.  I will blog each day if I can to keep me in line and accountable for my actions.  These next two days I am doing the liquid diet, with just water and protein.  I think its called the pouchtest diet.  Basically cleans your system out and gives you a jump start.  Shoot me a line if you want.

Take care~
