I just opened up my old food journal from last May (2008) and I am going to be counting my calories again. I just typed out my calorie cycling days and how much I need for each day and I glued it to the inside of my journal to remind me.
I'm gonna start working out at Fitness again. My plan is to go 3x a week and while I'm there I'll do some cardio and then some weights if I feel up to it. I know it will work and with calorie cycling, my weight will come off :)
yay!!!

Failure
I do not have any good news to report. The diet I was on for a week is going to be a no go because it's not something I can do if I go eat outside of my house therefore it would make my eating habits just stay in the home and I want a life!!
Of course I want to lose weight...who doesn't? I'm still struggling with why I want to lose my weight. Is it for me or for my mom? I had this problem when I was living here before I moved out for the first time. Once I was on my own, I became my own individual who knew what I was doing. Now, it seems like I'm back to my old ways....and it's sad.
I'm hoping to get a teaching job this summer and fall :) so here's to getting a new apartment huh? lol :)

Weigh In Day
So today I weighed in at: 189 lbs!!!
That is a 4 lb loss this week. I totally don't feel bloated anymore, but I am rather quite hungry!! This week I am going to incorporate more foods into my diet plan because that first week is good for a short fast. I miss some of my foods so I'm going to stick with having a certain amount of calories every meal. I will not count calories, but I will try to stick with about 300-400 per meal and about 100 per snack and that's about 1 time a day.
Things are going well.

What A Week!
This week has been so emotional!!!
For student teaching, we started a new math this week called Connected Math and let me tell you...for sixth graders, I really had to start slow with them because they are not used to this type of math. They have to take notes and graph a lot of things before they move on to their hw. It's very difficult. I will admit that I became a little stressed out this week. I cried.....(after school) and I ended up getting sick on Thursday afternoon. I tried my best, but my throat hurt so bad I could barely speak. I'm getting better so tomorrow will be better...:) I want to be there for my students :)
DIET NEWS: I started a new meal plan last Monday weighing in at 193 lbs. This plan is from when I did Medical Weight Loss Clinic Diet two summers ago and lost a ton of weight in like two months. The only difference is that this time I am not paying to go and I am not on their vitamins or taking their nutrients three times a day. This meal plan is just simply regular food (good food and healthy) and I eat a breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack, and dinner. I will update tomorrow, but it's DEFINITELY WORKING!!! I weigh every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday just so it keeps me on track. Weigh in is tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Because I was so emotional all week, last night (dinner) I wanted nothing but my comfort food. I wouldn't have accepted anything else because I was missing that one thing that made me feel better for the moment.....I said for the moment lol. So I ate off plan just for my dinner only and boy did it catch up with me. Talk about an upset stomach!!!!!!!!!!! I had to leave the restaurant right after eating because yea, enough said lol.
If anyone wants a copy of the diet plan, I will work on it and give it to you. I promise you will see results within the first week!!!!!! :)
more later :) bye

Weekend So Far
Friday was my day to eat a nice dinner and snack with no counting. That's exactly what I did! I had a BWW Chicken Tender Wrap with sour cream and then I had a medium chocolate chip and cherry dipping blizzard from DQ. So yummy!!!
Today, I am right back on track. Although, our groceries are running out today so I have to be careful with the things that I make. Other than that, things are going so great :)
I have been stepping on the scale all week and some days it said 190 and then today it said 191.5 so it must be from the sodium I had yesterday with my Wrap (fries were with that). I should see a drop from 192 lbs by Monday :)
Here's to another great week :)

Day 3
Still going strong and still doing very good. I've had ice cream these past 2 days and have enjoyed it! The only difference is that I measured out a half cup. I'm so proud of myself too!!
Total calories: 1330
I'm really hoping to see a drop in some weight by Monday!! I didn't weigh myself for my start weight, but I probably guessed about right anyways.
I will probably have one more snack or so before bed so I'll update tomorrow if that changes.

The Daily Plate
For some reason, I woke up extremely motivated to get back on track today. It's really weird, but I like it. I really think it's because I'm off my period today and I don't feel bloated anymore. I love when that happens lol.
I'm going to continue tracking on the daily plate so if anyone wants to see what I'm eating, head here: ME. Feel free to look at my plate and see what foods I'm eating. My goal is to lose 1.5 lbs a week. I know that's completely doable because I've done it before. I don't know my starting weight, but I really think I weigh 192.0 lbs....yikes!!!!
Wish me luck :)
Start: 192.0
