So Glad I Found This Site

GREETINGS FROM SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA!

Let's Meet for Lunch if you Visit SD, Sparkfriends!

After three months on another site (and plan), I learned a lot of good eating habits and lost 29 lbs.

GREETINGS FROM SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA!

Let's Meet for Lunch if you Visit SD, Sparkfriends!

After three months on another site (and plan), I learned a lot of good eating habits and lost 29 lbs. However, I want to learn to eat independently, not constantly heating up prepackaged meals loaded with preservatives. I also need a support system of similar others, but without endorsing a particular system and helping them inadvertantly with marketing.

The more I use this site, the more I realize that it's going to help me with my second major weight goal of 30 more lbs. I'm hoping that this loss will help me revive my high levels of energy, motivation and enthusiasm in seeking new career paths. If all pans out, I will give back to this site.

Okay, here's an update...As of today - 3/8/09 - I've broken my month-long plateau and moved down another lb. It feels victorious to be seeing some movement again.

It's 3/11/09, and I'm considering changing my end goal from 30 to 20 lbs. I just feel that my body will be too thin at 30 more lbs. lost. When I lose the 20, I can always reevaluate and decide at that time.

3/20/09-First day of Spring and one more pound down for a total of 31. Only 19 to go!

4/1/09-I plan to really amp it up in the next 3 months, starting today!

4/3/09-Only 17 more to go.

4/21/09-Struggling with impatience. Want to be at goal.

5/11/09-Thrilled over having gone 3 dress sizes down since starting this lifestyle change in October 08. (tried a 4th size smaller and can pull it up, but not zip.)

5/21/09 - DANGER AHEAD. For the first time in 7 months, I have gained weight. 1.5 lbs. This motivates me to get busy as I DO NOT WANT THIS WGT back and do not want to be headed in the wrong direction. (this later proved to be a false alarm, but it was a good wake up call)

6/1/09 - New start for last bunch of weight to lose. Will give myself until Dec. 09 to lose these last 20 lbs. Received some new exercise equipment and ready to tackle the rest of this weight.

7/29/09-Lost another lb. I think the plateau is over.
34 lbs. down. Hooray, hooray!

8/3/09 - Down 35 lbs.

August 7,8,9, 2009 - First time since I started eating better, completely fell off the wagon and was thinking of giving up. On Monday, 8/10, I picked myself up and continued my dedication to the healthier lifestyle I'd begun on 10/13/08.

My Goals:
Lose 17 more lbs. (have lost 33 lbs since 10/13/08)
Travel more.
Get new job.
Relocate to new city.
Start new business, if not a new job.
Make new friends.

My Program:
As of 1/09, I finished 3 months on the NS program and am finishing up some of their food. I want to learn to eat healthy on my own, without prepackaged food. Making great progress in portion control, water consumption, healthy combinations of food, no sugar cravings, etc.

Personal Information:
Happy person who has lost some of that glow due to heaviness gained. Always thin throughout my life, I gained my weight in the past two years due to stress, hormonal changes, and the lack of realization that I should be eating smaller portions. In other words, I've been a piglet. (smiling)

Other Information:
As of 3/28/09 - 31 lbs lost. Started on 10/13/08.
Enjoy movies, plays, concerts.
Love to read.
Enjoy motorcycle riding as a passenger.
Losing weight is helping me smile again.

No big family dinner here either for Thanksgiving....that's ok, it's nice to think about those big family dinners. My ex-brother in law was the one who always took movies (super 8) LOL and now we've all laughed about his old movies.........every one of the holidays looked the same.....he would film the table laden with food....good subject for a movie huh? the only way you can tell when it was is to look carefully at the people who might walk in or out of a film....age of the kids, clothing styles, hairstyles....what a hoot! The thing is often my mom would cook a goose or some other fowl, my family didn't care much for Turkey but my aunt had to have a bird, then there would be home made dinner rolls, crusty italian bread, ravioli, lasagna, mostaciolli, my dad's sausage, and every kind of side you can think of, Asti for a toast and desserts....yes that's plural. My belt is getting tight thinking about it....better go for our walk. emoticon
