Day 44

I seem to hit a platform at 268 pounds. It does not bother me as much as I thought because I feel a lot better than I did when I was 296 pounds! This is a repost from my main blog at: http://startinganewday.wordpress.com/2009/10/14/day-44/

Before diet:

You can see the improvement:

I've never been excited about a diet before!

Day 43

Day 43 (13th day of second month on my diet) was another hectic one, and that makes it hard to work in a work out.

Day 42

I had Shepard's Pie with Ginger Beer for breakfast this morning, it's a strong way to start the day.

Day 41

I got some pretzel sticks, it's nice to eat one with my yogurt.

Day 41

It is gonna be a long day . . .

Day 40

I skipped day 39 because I am still sick. This morning I went to Cracker Barrel and got the fresh fruit n yogurt breakfast w/ honey oat granola mix, eggs, turkey sausage, apple raisin bran muffin, grapes, & apple.

Day 38

I’m still feeling sick, my symptoms are:

fever

fatigue

body aches

sore throat

headache

runny nose

and fits of sneezing

Day 37

It's been a long day with my college studies and trying to catch up on my exercise.

Day 36

Sunday was the day I took to recover flom last week's walking.

Monday I was too sick to walk.

Tuesday (today) it's too rainy.

When problems like this arise, how do you deal with them?

Day 35 (Late)

I forgot to post yesterday because I was ill. I caught the bug from a classmate, and I didn't feel like doing anything. I also skipped my meal replacement shake, and when I weighed myself this morning, I had put back on almost 2 pounds. I also could not sleep and kept getting up in the night for snacks like a cup of ramen noodles.

Day 34

Anyone have suggestions for what to eat out when you are trying to lose weight?

Day 33

I've been slacking off on my walking do to procrastinating, then completely forgetting about it.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Also, I'm thinking of permanently switching my blog to: http://startinganewday.wordpress.com

Day 32

Dieting is about choices, like choosing a spicy chicken sandwich instead of a 1-pound Quadruple.

Day 31

I started my second month on my diet today. I am easing back on my food restrictions. I was really strict my first month because I wanted to hit this diet running. I can now ease up and still lose weight. I am compensating by walking more which I can easily do since there is now 26 pounds less of me to move.
