Why do you want to lose weight?
• To fit in my clothes loosely
Benefits: wear clothing already in the closet, buy new clothing that is younger and fits better, look like someone who has self-control
• To have less weight on my joints and spine
Benefits: no deteriation, no arthritis, less aches, more mobility, which means doing things when I am older and being more active, which might translate into living longer.
• To have smaller breasts
Benefits: less sag, easier to inspect, makes you look thinner over all
• So I look more attractive
Benefits: I get more of what I want, people will judge me favorably upon chance meeting, so people say: “she takes care of herself…she is put together”
• So I look younger and not frumpy
Benefits: pleasant aging experience, living with vitality even when older, positive outlook on life, non-stereotypical look for my career
• So I can stretch more easily
Benefits: I have tendonitis issues, weight and poor eating exacerbates this. As the body ages it attempts to return to the fetal position…not good!
• So I can run a 5K
Benefits: I like running! Honest. Sure I get lazy and I don’t run for large spans of time, but when I am running, I really like it. 5K is a doable distance, yet far enough that you feel accomplished.
• So I can live longer
Benefits: I don’t need to live forever, but I want my time here to be good. I want to retire young and have years to do what I want to enjoy life and serve others.
• So I don’t get diabetes
Benefits: Since I am only 40 pounds overweight at the moment, I guess I haven’t hit my family diabetes threshold. I have 3 generations with it and an uncle and a cousin. I’m talking type II (the fat one). So eating well is as important as losing weight in order to combat this.
• To have more energy
Benefits: This goes right along with eating well. Lowering the sugars I consume will give me more energy. Exercising will too, and then it’s a happy cycle of energy and weight loss.
• To eat better again
Benefits: I know how, and I have before. Mostly I do eat well, but it’s the stuff I add to it that’s getting me. I need to make a commitment to nutrition. I need to quit the foods that aren’t really foods at all. I need to also menu plan better.
Weekly, doable goals:
December 29, 2011 into the NEW YEAR...
1. Eliminate the “bad foods” from the house. Clean fridge and inventory foods.
2. Walk for 30 minutes at a brisk pace at least once.
3. Menu plan before shopping.

Here we go again and again
Okay! So I stink at doing this online diary of weight loss. No, I stink at weight loss. I haven't posted here since January! And I haven't lost weight! In fact, today I am 73.8 kilograms! But here is what I know I do well and what I know I am not good at:
Things for me that I do well:
Get plenty of sleep
Drink lots of water
Eat a variety of foods that are nutritious and prepared well
Try to eat less meat
Don't eat fatty fried foods
Love fruits and vegetables
Keep a mindful list in my head of what I ate during the day
Things I don't do well:
Don't get up early enough
Sit around too long on the computer
Don't walk or run enough
Don't get outside enough
Don't count points nor keep a list of what I eat
Things that sabotage me!
Alcohol
Snacking while drinking
Snacking while on the computer
Putting it all off until tomorrow
Well tomorrow is here! So what WILL I do:
-I will continue to do the positive things that are good habits from the list above.
-I can eat mindfully and keep that running tally in my head.
-Every single day I can exercise for at least 20 minutes.
-I can set a goal to fit into a particular piece of clothing.
-I can only eat in the dining room, no TV or computer snacking.
-I can try to not eat after seven.
-I can follow the three bite rule. You have a piece of cake, you get three bites and then you are done.
I will weigh myself daily, not out of obsession, but because it is a way to keep me on track. No, I won't post here daily, maybe weekly, but don't hold your breath!

Snow Days never seem to end!
I've realized I've spent most of my phase I of the diet at home!!!! First, my day one was a snow day. Then we had Monday off for MLK, Tuesday and Wed. again were snow days. Went to work on Thursday and then had another snow day Friday! Crazy!!!!!
Anyways, today is day 11 on plan and liking it. Sometimes I just stop and think: "I've been sober for 12 days" (that began one day earlier than the food part). It is a powerful feeling to know that you can control these things.
Today I finally dropped a little more weight! I am waiting for my period, thus the weight is weighting too (ok, puns are never funny)! I am 71.2 kg this morning (with clothing, no shoes).
I don't really care if it goes slowly, as long as it goes!!!!!
Breakfast today: glass of skim milk, poached egg over one slice of back bacon and 1/4 cup cottage cheese.
Lunch: chicken and green beans left from yesterday
Kinda forgot about eating today! At 6:30 I finally returned from shopping and had something light: two slices turkey pastrami, two very thin slices genoa salami, humus, lettuce all wrapped up. Then I had tea and a ricotta cream made with chocolate (sugar free, don't worry).
Yesterday I did not go to the gym. In fact, my gym time has been minimal! Must improve that, but right now I am not dealing well with this winter weather. Anyhow: yesterday I raked snow off the back porch. there was a foot and I was really worried that it was too much for that roof because that roof looks a bit iffy to begin with. After that I cleaned the 5 inches of snow from the driveway and walked around the yard inspecting things. We have a lot of snow and it's deep enough that walking in it makes you work your thighs to the point of feeling it. I was outside for about 1.5 hours. It was warm and sunny (warm being 25 f ).

1.19.11 Snow Day Again! Still OP!
So I'm on day 8 of SB phase I. So far so good. Weight loss has stalled, but I'm also expecting my period any day now. I'm really not going to worry about it. I know I am still eating very well.
Today"
B-fast=egg white frittata with asparagus and one slice back bacon
Lots of coffee, then I took a tiny teaspoon of pb and dusted it with ovaltine. It was quite satisfying
Lunch= not chicken chicken patty over lettuce with 1/2 avacado
Dinner= roasted eggplant and red sweet pepers with salsa and some dopples of ricotta.
snack= ricotta with orange zest (some sb recipe)
oh and some jello mixed with greek yogurt
I didn't know that eggplant had virtually no calories. 120 at most in the one that I used. So I figure that whole roasted dish was maybe 600 calories and I ate 1/2. Funny thing is, I feel that I over ate!!!!

All about family and genetics
I'm pretty fortunate genetically. My mother hasn't been overweight a day in her life. My father was overweight, but not obese. He was 5'9" and his "fat weight" was typically 220 at the upper range, and more like 205 typically. While that's bigger than he should have been for his height, that's no where near out of control. My maternal grandparents were thin as was my Da's dad. My maternal grandmother was quite overweight however.
What I was wasn't inherited! LOL! No, I was the unlucky victim of was poor fashion. Case in point: This photo was taken of me at age 16. I weighed between 120-125 pounds and was my adult height of 5"4". Now if weighed that now I'd have no difficulties wearing a size 6.
[please ignore the hair, I had unkind hairdressers who never told me about flat irons and product]
Clearly, I had no concept of how to pose! But look at that chunky thigh and butt? What's up with that? How can you weigh so little and look so fat? With that and the combo of bad fashion, no wonder why I was always on a diet.
As time passes I am going to be entering more evidence of my body over time. Scary thing is, at 120 or 160, I still look the same! Maybe I just don't photograph well because I sure can tell how I am doing by the way my clothing fits. Honestly, I think that's the best indicator of all.
1.16.11
My belly is full now! Dinner was a piece of tilapia with a can of water chestnuts, some onion, and some stir fry veggies. Added to spice it up was some hot Szechaun sauce. Wow! All this after practically no food today. Well I started with a delicious egg white frittata and did have two stalks of celery and one laughing cow wedge with it. Later, after 6 hours without food, I felt hungry. So then I had a Primal Strip Jerky.
No exercise! That's not good! Posting on 3FC again. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed that community.
71.8 kg this morning, which puts me under 160 pounds! I don't really have a fixed goal. I just want to be less than 130 and 60 kg.

Funny Dream or was it..a Nightmare?
Last night I drempt I was eating this huge bowl of macaroni and cheese. There was this other woman in the dream and she was eating it stuffed in a hoagie roll! Talk about carb sinfulness.
Thne, later in the dream, I was in NYC and we went to this pizza place. I had two slices of pizza! Then I was sitting at the counter eating my third slice with my eyes half closed with bliss.
I awoke feeling guilty as if I really did this! Thankfully, I'm still on plan.
Today is Saturday 15 January. I ate the following:
Egg white frittata with salmon, onions, and asparagus sprinkled with parmasean cheese and dollops of cottage cheese and a glass of skim milk
no calorie sugar free jello cup
120 calories worth of baba ghonoj with hald a yellow sweet pepper and four pieces of celery
whole can of tuna mixed with banana pepper rings, light mayo, dill, oz. of 50% lowfat cheese
couple spoons of sugar free geletain blended with non fat plain yogurt
did not go to gym today! :(
However! 72.4 kg this morning! :)

1.14.11
Kinda was mentally hungry today. That was around 3 PM, so I had a cup of coffee. Then went shopping and finally found the new bedspread I've been searching for. I also bought some pickled asparagus! Love me pickled asparagus!!! :) Munched down on that and made it home by 6:30. Then I ate a really big salad with all the goodies on it and had Polar soda with it. It was strawberry flavored! Yummy!
No exercise today! Just being lazy that's for sure. And let me tell you, I was cranky today. I think my body is still adjusting to no carbs (and no alcohol)! withdrawl! Still 73.2 kg, but it will change. Not eating enough to remain fat:
B fast: b-fast veggie bits, black bean burger, glass of milk
Snack: 2 Primal strips no meat jerkies (90 calories a piece and 9 g protein a piece....love them)
Lunch: turkey roll ups and some cherry tomatoes
Dinner: big honkin salad and serving of almonds.
:)

1.13.11
Already I have found I am not hungry! Wow, and only 2 days free of sugar. It's amazing what sugar does to your system, how much it makes you hunger artificially. Today, at lunch time I was chatting with a student, we both realized that we'd better eat something, but honestly, I wasn't all that hungry.
B-fast: another egg scramble
Snack: almonds, cheese, diet coke
Lunch: turkey lettuce roll-ups, liter of water
Snack: sea weed salad, a few almonds (ok, like 7)
Dinner: salad with half a portion of salmon on it, 1/4 avacado, some feta, diet coke
a few more almonds (I was bagging them up) sugar free jello cup (not too exciting), 4 breakfast cups (@30 calories a piece). TEA!
I went to the gym too! 35 minutes, 2.43 miles, 230 calories burned!

To Begin
I'm home on a snow day with too much time on my hands and no desire or drive to do anything too exciting. I do want to eat. Probably just because I know I have limits, definately not because I am hungry!
I weigh 73.2 kilos! This is the upper range of my body's existance! I am 164 cm tall. And age 40.
What I do know is that I am healthy. I went to the doctor yesterday and even had an EKG because I want to run and I don't want to have a bad heart and drop dead. She said it was healthy. So I am happy and I will commence training to run the Freihofer's in June.
Lastly, size 10 pants are tight! When it's no fun to wear jeans, you know you're too fat!
I'm eating South Beach and on phase I today, as I type!
