Another pound gone!

Monday, January 31, 2011

203.2, 11.6 pounds down.

I really have a hard time believing this is working. I had to step on the scale three times this morning to make sure I wasn't seeing things. Only a few more pounds to go and I will be in ONE-derland!! Yipeee. I'm starting to feel that this is really possible.

It's funny. My abs feel tighter and my leg muscles feel firmer but I'm not exercising THAT much. Just a little yoga and some walking. Hey, whatever works!!

I might have mentioned that I have constant fantasies about food food food. Is there anyone who can shed some light on food addiction and if it's possible to overcome it? I am worried that once I go off this diet that I will return to my bad eating habits. I have such a hard time with moderation.

3:30 pm - today I've been very tired and had an afternoon headache. I don't feel particularly hungry, per se, but I do feel a bit "empty." I feel like I didn't rest enough over the weekend, but then it could be the diet, too. Just documenting...

    You know, you do have a point. I'm going to stick with this anyway because I could not accomplish this myself in the past. I think it's true that my fantasies are from strict deprivation. I think after this "diet" is over and I am required to stick to a more normal way of eating, this may subside quite a bit.

    Do you think some of your food fantasies might be coming from the strick deprivation you are doing right now. At some point you have to learn to eat only when you are hungry. I know you are seeing the weight come off fast, but is this something you can do forever! In my past experience, fast weight loss never sticks for me! I wish you luck and good health!!

    Well KERRYANN, this is just it, this is not so much of a diet as it is a lifestyle change (hate that word!) and therefore, you should keep counting the calories so you don't go over your range, doing your yoga, drinking the water. If you feel yourself slipping, get back into reading blogs and blogging yourself. I can't wait to be in the maintenance mode!
Good luck with it all.
