I am happy to say the diet is going great. I'm happy to say it, it's not true, but I'm happy to say it. I'm still hungry and struggling with the clock and waiting two hours for the next meal. The weight isn't coming off as quickly as I would like. And every time I pass a Starbucks I have to remind myself "I can't wait... till I get to order a White Mocha Latte." Despite all that I weighed in at 204.5 this week and that's a grand total of 32 pounds loss. Woo Hoo! I'm a third of the way to goal. Its been a hard battle but I am pumped......Now back to reality.
Jamie explained to me that several of the clients she is working with right now are struggling and she wanted to know if I had any tips or ideas for them. I told her what I thought was the secret to my success. This was after spending 30 minutes talking to Janie about everything under the sun, as well as, how I was doing on the plan. Jamie and Janie are both very sweet to let me rant about almost anything under the sun. I have begun to try to curtail my random thoughts and keep our appointments down to less than 30 minutes. Thank you, ladies. Oh, by the way, my number one tip for losing weight for the long haul is to keep at it, don't give up. Life is a struggle, we are never guaranteed an easy life. Besides, this is the consiquences of the lifestyle that brought about the excess weight we are trying to loose. In other words, let me sugar coat this a bit and say this: "Suck it up and do it anyway!" Ok, there's no sugar there, but what do you expect. Your on a diet and no sugar is allowed!
Good Luck and God Bless You as your work toward your own weight loss goals.
Congratulations on your success so far! It's not always easy, but it is certainly worth it. When you're at your goal, you'll look back at this journey and never regret the time you invested in getting to a healthy weight.
