I am an intelligent person....
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I am an intelligent person.
I will control my emotions, and not let my emotions control me.
Everytime I am tempted to use food to satisfy my frustrated desires, build up my injured ego, or dull my senses, I will remember, even though I overeat in private,
My excess poundage is there for all the world to see.
I will take off pounds sensibly.
Today I promise I will not quit.
I pledge that no matter how many ups and downs I pass through,
I will continue on my journey.
I pledge to make a new start today, and forgive myself for my past,
And to stop being so critical of myself.
I pledge to take control of myself,
To stop making excuses, and stop blaming other people or situations.
I pledge to treat myself as I would my best friend, because that is who I am.
I pledge to stay in the race and to be a winner.

Ponderings....
I haven't blogged for quite a while now, I weighed in at -30 pounds and then summer hit. So I was up and down all summer. Until last week I was fighting to get back to where I was in June. Finally at the last WI I was -32.8. HUGE sigh of relief. At least Thanksgiving is over, I have two birthdays and Christmas still to tackle. I don't know if I am going to make my "goal" for the year of -50 pounds. That's okay though, I didn't put the weight on in one year, I shouldn't have to take it off in one… Continue

OMG WI= -3.0!!!!
I was aiming for a loss of 1.4 this week to make it to the 30 pound loss mark. Well wouldn't you know it I lost 3! That makes me very happy - 30 pounds that I will never see again. WOOHOO!!!
Of course the long weekend is just around the corner and I am having a friend out to visit, this will be a test for sure. My friend loves ice cream, and I never met a flavour I didn't like. I will really have to watch calorie counts religiously.
BYE BYE 30 POUNDS!!

WI= -2.6
I am very happy with the loss this week, I actually worked hard for it. Counting everything I ate and stopping when I was at the MAX. I didn't do much for excercise besides walking the dog everyday and going to agility class on Monday night.
I am 1.4 pounds away from 30 pounds lost, so hopefully this week will be a good one too, and I can be down for the next weigh in.
