back to losing

Monday, July 27th 2009

I tracked my weight from last year and am only three pounds off from where I was last year at this time. I guess this is a good thing and a bad thing. It means I managed to control myself despite my relaspe back in Feb. - May. when I went through that run in with depression. Since then I have finally gotten over the one year I don't want to continue attitude to finally having the will to continue on and have now lost a few pounds.

muddled and cunfuzzeled

Saturday, July 25th 2009

I borrowed this term from a friend of mind who sometimes doesn't speak proper English. L like her term " confuzzeled ". I now have in my brain different diet plans and a whole bunch of info in my brain. No big deal really, but once in a while I feel like shaking my head and trying to make sense of it all. Let's see over the past twenty years I have been taught the exchange system ( old WW program that went with the quick start program ), the carb counting method, for insulin pump user...

Wednesday, July 22nd 2009

I did my first full WW meeting today including learning the point system. Compared to the CK count your own calorie I would give it a toss up to ease.

Yesterday I went over when I got the late night snacks, but I stayed within weight loss range and did not BINGE !!!!!!!! I had some hunger pains, but they were tolerable. I am spending my time looking up foods that I am unsure about and not assuming they fit into the "all " category ". One example is a melon I picked up at the store. It was a Hami or Chinese melon.

second day, all goes well, even with a headache

Tuesday, July 14th 2009

I am doing well on my second day even though I have this terrible headache. Unfortunately, the headache is not from the restricted food intake. I have been having migraines for the past three months, so I set an appointment with the allergist to check out my sinuses. Some of you have been there. :(
Yesterday I did really well and came to within 50 plus or minus my goal calorie target. I am never absolutely positive on the calorie counting because I know I have a bad habit of tasting food as I ...
