Day 3 goals accomplished!

Goals accomplished and down 6 pounds! Oh yeah! Great. Now I can really see the results of not drinking. It hasn't been easy, nor has it been hard.

I got my exercise in this morning before working 10-7pm. I went on my elliptical for 1/2 an hour. I was great drinking water today too. Also choked down some raw carrots!

I ate perogies for dinner. I didn't snack after 9pm. Woohoo! I hope the scale is good to me in the morning. Goodnight.

Lost 4 pounds!

Even though I am not on an official diet, I lost 4 pounds since yesterday by just sticking to the rules! One rule was broken this morning already! The "weighing in on Mondays only" rule is gone. I have to weigh daily to see the results. What was I thinking with that rule?

Today is day two. Day two of no alcohol after work. I didn't have an evening snack so I am STARVING, but looking forward to the scale in the morning!

Trying to find myself at 39.5 years

I am trying to find myself at 39 1/2. I should say 39 3/4! Almost 40! YIKES! Basically I feel like I have let myself go with unlimited eating and drinking way too much wine and beer. I am so, so overweight. I feel terrible and am ready to do something about it.

So...I got on the scale today and I am three pounds heavier than my heaviest weight EVER! Today I weigh 243.5! I feel awful. None of my clothes fit right and I feel short of breath when I climb the stairs.

I am not starting an official diet at this time, but I am going to try to keep the following rules...one day at a time...one week at a time...

1. Weigh myself once a week on Mondays (not everyday like I like to when dieting)
2. Drink 8 ounces of water a day
3. No alcohol
4. No eating after 8 pm
5. No take out food

The rules make me wonder what life will be like? Sounds boring to me! Gotta go. So stinking tired!
