Welcome To My One Day At A Time, One Pound At A Time Journey!

Welcome to my long journey of losing 146 pounds. So many of us have some pounds to loss and I want to share my journey with everyone because it holds me accountable. I am determined to do it this time and be honest with myself and you. I started this journey December 18, 2010 and plan on hitting it one pound a week, slow and steady! Join me as I share my struggles, my heart ache, my achievements, my excitement, and my new found energy!

Weight in #2 on the last day of 2010!!!!

Weight in #2 on the last day of 2010!!!!- written on 12-31-10

So today I weighed in and was happy to have just maintained!!!  I weighed in on Christmas Eve at 306.4 which was down almost 5 pounds from were I started.  On Christmas Eve and Christmas I ate anything and everything I saw.  I didn’t hold back; I ate chocolates, cupcakes, cookies, cake, ham, meatballs, bread, bread, and more bread, and then more See’s candy, and fudge, and more cupcakes…you get the picture.  I didn’t even feel bad because I knew that it was just for the holiday.  I got on the scale on Monday and saw I was up to 312, one pound more than when I started!  I was going to get back on track.  I ate well, tracked everything, and exercised a few times this week.  It felt good!  And I was able to get back down, so I actually did lose weight!
Did I feel guilty?  It’s funny to say this but NO!  I had no guilt because I’m not living like that; it was only one day not a lifetime of eating like that anymore.  I’m going to live life and not be on a diet.  I’m going to eat what I want but in moderation and I am going to work out and stay busy.  I’m going to take myself and continue working out, tracking, and eating right.  I feel like I am in a different state of mind, a mindset that knows this is not a race.  It is a LIFE CHANGE!!!!

This is a great way to start off the New Year!  Welcome 2011!!!!

Happy New Year and be safe!!!!

Total weight loss for December: 5 pounds!
