timme

So i left for my vacation earlier then expected and im with my baby; it's so nice to be back together. Im back on track with my dieting and it feels good..i cant let the food and lazy motivation take over me! I really need to build up more self control and im not sure how? Im doing good again but whenever i seem to go off i say "okay just two small cookies" and once i eat them i just want more and more and i let myself. Thats why i have to try to keep that stuff out of the house at most times which of course is an inconvience when i should allow myself a treat. Any ideas?

So today not a ton is going on..girlfriends at work and im stuck here for seven hours :/. I guess this allows me to have some "myself" time, clean, and to workout. Im really good about working out but once im done im pooped and not motivated to go do weights. Ive been really good about them lately so i just hope i can keep it  up. One of the reasons why i believe im like that is because im not 100% always excited to work-out as it is, they have just become ruteins and i do the eliptical and tredmile just couting until i can get off; im bored. I need mix things up a little.

life is kind-of confusing right now :://. Other then dieting i have a ton on my mind and im not sure what to do about some things. But on another note what do you all think about diet soda? I stopped drinking soda in the beg of my weightloss because of the sugars and excess calories but now that there is none of that i just constantly drink it. Is it true that the caffein makes you gain weight?--something i heard.

Keep up the good work!

getting back to ya

Well i was raised vegetarian. So cutting out meat wasnt to hard for me. Also i found my body seemed to take any meat i ate and turn it directly into fat. Since i stopped eating it i have lost more weight then i ever did trying to diet while still eating meat. I do still have the occasional helping of chicken. Since my family isnt vegetarian.  Ive just recently become extremely motivated. I took some pictures of myself to see how big i really was getting. And i guess they are right when the say a picture says a thousand words.  You seem to be doing pretty well. I looked at your weight chart. Keep it up, nothing is better pay off then you feel proud of yourself.    :)

Be positive!

That is what I try to do when I am feeling un-motivated. I just try to picture myself at a healthy weight and it seems to help. Also, sometimes it's fun to go looking for clothes you want, and pick the size you want to be.

As for diet soda: It has not seemed to be a problem with me losing weight. I am trying to go this week without it to see if it does make a difference, but it doesnt seem to. Hope this helps!
