We're getting family pictures taken today. Hubby, me, and the pups. We thought about taking the cat but realized we didn't want to get attacked in the process. Little miss diva is easily spooked. She wasn't always that skittish but I guess moving can do that to a cat. Especially 2 long distance moves.
I'm wear jeans and a beautiful royal blue blouse that I picked up from Wal*Mart. My gal pal Dani is doing my hair. We decided to go the extensions route. I'm borrowing her extensions and she's going to curl my hair to look like Jennifer Love-Hewitt's in The Ghost Whisper. I've never watched the show but I've seen the commercials. It should look good. I love having friends in the beauty biz!
I've been bad lately. For the most part, I've been sticking with my diet but I bought a can of creme brulee almonds. The problem isn't with eating them. It's with having a few here and there to where I am not keeping track. Shame on me, especially when I'm doing so well on here!!
Yesterday morning I weighed in at 220.4. This morning I was at 216.4. No real loss though. I definitely didn't get the workout in that I prefer. I got up earlier than normal and ended up working out with hubby. His workouts are intense but they aren't what I want or need. He looks really good though! He's lost a good portion of his fat. His belly went from a keg to an almost 6-pack. It's awesome to see the changes. We're guessing he started at about 265-268 at the beginning of the year and is now hovering around 191. That's pretty impressive!
I don't compare myself to him. For one thing, he's 6'2". The male body is different all around too. I'm really proud of his success and I'm glad he's enjoying it too. My progress is much slower and I've gotten to the point to where I'm okay with that. I know the slower I take it off, the more likely it is to stay off. I started the year at 245, then I was 239 on March 1st, and now, I'm at 216. That's more than 10% of my weight lost! No small feat!
Mahatma Ghandi said "Be the change you want to see in the world." I think I'd like to see the world a bit thinner and much more healthy!

Today is a brand new day!
I was a baaaaaaaaaaaad girl this weekend. Soda, popcorn, candy (can ya tell where I was?), coffees, Arby's (even though I only ate half of the sandwich, it's still not some place I should have been)... You name it, I probably ate it.
Which is why today is a brand new day. I'm lacing up my sneakers as I write this. I'm going to start eating clean again. Like how bodybuilders do. Except, in the end, I probably won't look all veiny and muscular like them. That's not the image I want to go for.
Instead I am opting for healthy. Nothing that comes out of a box, can, or bag. There are some exceptions to this. Turbinado comes in a box, beans come in a can, and spelt flour comes in a bag, just to give you an idea.
No more deprivation. If I want cake, I'll figure out how to make it without wheat. If I want potato chips, I'll eat a baked potato or make my own. If I want a candy bar, I'll have some fruit!
I know what I can do and how to do it. I just need to find some way to hold myself accountable for what I shove in my mouth.
I need to eat more. I haven't hit my daily calorie goal once. I'm going to start eating every couple of hours. I've seen people munching on some fruit or nuts during or after their workout. They are incredibly built with great bodies. You can't help but feel envious and admiration for them all at once.
Yep, that's me. I'm going to be one of those people. Just watch...

I think I need to devote some time to revamping my "diet". I really despise that word. Diet = Die + T. Yeah. I know I have a lot of food allergies. One of them being wheat. I'm also allergic to soy and chicken. Not chicken products but chicken meat itself.
I am seriously considering doing a combination of the Blood Type Diet and the Eat Clean Diet. It's pretty close to what I'm already doing anyhow but I want to get more specific with myself. Recording what I've been eating lately has proven that I'm not getting enough calories. I know how much havoc that wreaks on my metabolism. I'm not even drinking enough water!
In the past, advance planning helped me to lose some weight. It was a very slooooooow progression of loss but it's better that way, right? I do know that I need variety. Some foods I could eat every day and not think twice about it but for the most part, I need to seriously start counting calories.
When I don't, I have a tendency to cater to cravings. Luckily, the cravings for junk food is far and few between. I crave stuff like sushi, watermelon (haha - right here on the floor next to me, waiting to be cut up!), baked potatoes, cheese, etc. Not McDonald's (although I had some the other day and it promptly came back up!), not KFC, or any other fast food junk trap. The mere thought makes my arteries harden.
What are your cravings and weaknesses? How do you overcome them?
