Middle of Week Seven

I haven't blogged lately because there really isn't much new to say. I am continuing with my plan and have lost 19 pounds so far. I have started walking in the mornings and I really like it. I continue to find new healthy ways to eat so it's not boring. One more pound and I will be a fifth of the way. That will definitely be time to do another video.

End of Fifth Week

I made it through a birthday party without eating cake which is a small miracle. I also limited my party food to fruit and vegetables and yogurt dip and hummus. Hopefully it will payoff tomorrow on the scale but if not, well I wore the first goal pants to the birthday party so that is already a payoff. Also, all of my clothes are fitting a lot looser and some will soon have to be given away, never to be worn again. YEA!

End of First Month

Well I've been doing this for a month now and I believe it has become a habit. I haven't had sugar in the form of a dessert in the entire month, of course I have had sugar in things like ketchup or BBQ sauce. I also have not had white bread, potatoes, butter, or cheese. I started walking a couple of days ago and today I walked a mile and a half. I will continue with that until Monday and then bump it to 2 miles. I know it's going to be a long haul, this journey of mine but I'm down.

End of Week Four

This is the end of four weeks on the journey to losing 100 pounds. Tomorrow is my weigh day to see how far I have come on this journey. I am going to start posting my food journal also.

ye do, do all to the glory of God."

Day Twenty Four - A Realization

It is actually getting easier. I've noticed that I don't think about what I am not going to eat, but just what I am going to eat. There are so many good things to choose. Today I had yogurt and blueberries and walnuts and it was awesome. Yesterday I went out to eat and had a chicken fajita salad and used the salsa for dressing. It was great, and I enjoyed the lunch with my friend just as much as I would have if I had eaten enchiladas, rice, beans and a basket full of chips. I know this is going to need to be a way of life for me, and I am beginning to think it is possible.

Day Twenty Two

Today was a good day, I swam early today and it felt great. I also wore some clothes tonight that I have not been able to wear for awhile. So far, so good.
