Conflicted

This morning I am very conflicted on what I should be doing. I have been following the Lose Your Belly diet for a few days, but not seeing the results I had hoped for. Yesterday morning I got on the scales with a 1/2 pound gain. But a person's wait goes up and down all the time, so 1/2 a pound was irritating to see, but not a big deal. Then this morning I got on the scale to see another pound up. So I have gained 1 1/2 pounds since following this eating plan.

So I set conflicted. Do I continue down this new road, and hope that 1 1/2 pounds was just a fluke? Do I go back to what I was doing and try to reverse the damage? Or do I try to incorporate my new eating plan and this new eating plan?

I may not know what I am going to do yet. But I do know one thing. Never give up. I will never give up trying to be healthy. I am on a journey to find the healthy me inside this fat suit, and by George, I will not give up!

Bump In The Road

It has been a while since I have blogged. But I am back.

I ran into a bump in the road during the holidays and ended up gaining back about 10 pounds, but I got back into the grove of things, lost the weight I gained, and can now say that I am down 36 pounds!

I will not say that losing weight is an easy thing, it is a very hard thing my friends. But I have seen many positive changes in my day to day life, which keeps me wanting to drop more weight. Simple things like fitting more comfortably in movie theater seats brings a smile to my face. I can only imagine what losing another 30 pounds will do to me. But I am ready to find out. ;-)

Counting calories every day has become very tiresome. So I started this week trying something different. I started the "Lose Your Belly Diet", by Dr. Travis Stork. I had been so use to being able to calorie budget more carbs to my diet, that it has hurt me this week to have to limit myself to only 2 servings of carbs a day. But do to the fact I need a break from calorie counting, and I want to see if I can speed the scale descent a little. I have opted to give it a go.

I'll keep you informed on how things are going! Until next time.
