Today starts the reduced calorie portion of my diet, and I must say I'm excited about it!
I weighed in this morning.
So I was successful in gaining weight during my binge days. ;-)
I am currently enjoying a warm mug of peach tea with Truvia; a natural sweetener derived from Stevia. It's really good.
I have all my chicken baked and separated into individual serving portions. All my broccoli, cucumbers, celery and strawberries are washed and cut up. I need to go to the store for more apples and oranges, since my kiddos ate the ones I bought for the diet.
Other than that, I'm ready to go!! I'm excited to start see the scale going down. I really don't think it's going to be that hard to stick to this... at least not initially. Maybe smack dab in the middle of the 3 weeks when I'm sick of chicken. ;-) And I'll be eating much healthier than I've managed to for a very long time.
So here's to a new day, a new beginning, a new me! =)

How exciting! The difference between you and me is, I was esatic to see that number on the scale! :)But, yes, I am a 10 at this weight an 8 at 160. We'll see how far I'll go.
ReplyDeleteI don't think you'll get sick of chicken - you've always enjoyed it. And, that's a great variety of fruits/veggies. You can do this!!!!
I'm so excited for you, RA!! I'm on day 14 of an extreme diet/workout regime (like I told you =) and I can relate to that butterflies/excitement feeling you get when you think - "this is IT! Day 1 - I can SO do this. Oh, I am so excited to see where I am in a week! In TWO weeks! I've been waiting for this, working for this, for so long.........!"
ReplyDeleteI know you'll do fantastic and it'll be easy to stick to it this weekend with your friends around to hold you accountable. Especially MaryAnne - I haven't seen her recently but she tells me she's lost alot! Very cool. =) See you soon!
