Day 9

This time around is definitely more frustrating. While I am at 175.8 (a weight I haven't seen in a long time) I only lost .2 lbs yesterday. It could have something to do with not eating anything but an apple all day, then we went to Ihop for Rachel's birthday and I got a dinner-it was under 510 calories, but it was full of stuff I shouldn't have, and I didn't get my drops once either.

Oh well....today's another day!

Day 8

I lost .6 lbs yesterday, not very good. I'm totally off my groove with my kids being home for spring break. I didn't eat all afternoon, and when I was cleaning the kitchen I ate the homemade macaroni and cheese Matthew made for dinner. I totally forgot I was on a diet...how lame is that????

It is much harder this time around....I'm not really sure why. It probably has something to do with the kids being home, but they are home for all of next week too...so I'll have to figure something out! I am determined to hit my goal this time. I had plans for the last 2 days to walk around the soccer park while Austin practiced, but they cancelled practice due to the snow yesterday and it was too windy the day before (and smoky from a fire we had).

Today Rachel is 7! I can hardly believe it....she is getting so big and grownup! Austin is supposed to have his first soccer game tonight...but I doubt it with all the snow on the ground. Love Utah springs!!!!

Day 6

Today is March 30 2010 and I weigh 176.6 lbs. That is so exciting! Yesterday I weighed 179.0......I am going to have to get used to writing here again. If for no other reason than it helps me keep a record.

I am so glad to be back doing this diet. My goal is to lose 20 lbs this time. I'm going to start at 177.6 (which is where I was on the first day of this round). I haven't below 170 in many years. This is exciting!

Austin had a practice baseball game last night.......they need to practice.

Day 4

I didn't weigh myself or continue to write in my blog because it was so depressing to gain weight and eat the last few days. I gained 3 lbs....I am now at 180.2

Today I start my "real" diet, of 500 calories a day and I can't weight to see the weight drop away. I am so excited for this process.....none of the foods I ate these last few days were very good..

I went to Arctic Circle Thursday night and got a mushroom burger and oreo shake..neither of which I finished. Thursday afternoon Breanna and I met Kelly for lunch at Zuppa's and that was excellent!

Friday night we went to Golden Corral, and even the rolls I usually eat weren't all that great. Saturday I had a fire pit with my dad and had half a bag of marshmallows......they weren't as good as I remember either. I think my body decided it didn't like the sugar and it all tasted horrible. I even had a coke yesterday (first time since January) and it wasn't as good as I remember. Maybe this will make it easier to not eat in the upcoming weeks, since it didn't taste good!

So, here's to today and starting over......I am going to lose 2 lbs today!!!!
