What I have Learned

Tuesday, November 30, 2010

Well I managed to lose another 2lbs this past week. It is going slower than it has in the past but I think it will stay off this time. When I started I was around 435lbs and got down to 416. I shot back up though to 435 again. I had lost the weight fast the last time. Now it is more like two lbs a week. I am back down to the lowest I have been since I started now.

So I am back at 416. These are the things I have learned:

1. You can not lose it fast and not expect to put it back on because you are probably doing a crash diet. Those never last long. It takes a change of the mind towards food and how much we need. Slow and easy will last. I believe that.

2. Stress is a killer. Do whatever you have to to keep it low! If not you may eat out of stress. Some of the best ways to do that is by thinking about other things you enjoy rather than food. Yes you can stress about food. Take it easy. Fight your battles at meal time and the rest of the time try to do something else.

3. Working out is hard to start but easy once you get going. It takes 28 days to make a habit. What better habit to have?

    These are really good lessons. I too have lost and gained at Spark. The biggest things I have learned is consistency, and to make the healthy choices the priority. All the best for 2011!

    You are right!

Consider checking out "The Beck Diet Solution" which works with any food plan to change the way you THINK about food. I've found it very helpful!

I hope you will keep blogging! We are in this together!

It's Working

Tuesday, November 23, 2010

I am not supposed to weigh until the middle of the week. I went ahead and did it today though. I figure one day isn't going to hurt. Last night was so bad I thought for sure I would have gained weight. Instead I lost!

That tells me that everything I have been doing is working because one day didn't mess it up.

Wow that was hard

Friday, November 19, 2010

I just finished a study on the trinity. Wow it was hard. The funny thing is that it made sense to me but I fear having to teach it. I just don't know if people can handle it.

I went out walking today for the second time today. This time I did something I never have since I was a kid. I jogged a little bit! It was hard on me but I actually did it!
