kelly's diary

Wow, you are really getting your place into shape. I really need to get my house organized. My husband is a huge help with chores but often chooses the easy route of just throwing something in a closet or under a bed. I really need to clean them out! Anyways, keep it up, you are doing great!

okay

Okay, I'm gonna keep that up. Gotta get my walk in today. Think I might be getting a little bored with walking but I'm gonna do it anyway, since its the only exercise I'm willing to do these days. I could swim. A couple of things bothering me - my hair, and I'm trying not to think too far in the future, trying not to even think too much about today, my appearance. Just stay in my range and trust that its working out.

I got up early for me today and went to volunteer cooking (walked there, a short distance but hey) for a large dinner. Ate breakfast at 8, lunch at 12, and now its time to get some exercise and listen to some music.

The good news, I'm not hungry, I drank like 6 pints of water in the kitchen, and NOW I'm going for my walk. Talk to y'all later. My kids are coming tonight. Yeh.

no problem Kelly, hope you had a good day. I am just now trying to decide if I want to go out to the garage and freeze my butt off in order to get a walk in on the treadmill. Burrr!!! it's cold tonight.
 
name change

What's up everybody? I've changed my name to Happychubette.

Needed some extra calories today for some reason. Was worried. So even though I felt a loss of control at being hungry when I didn't expect to be (shortly after lunch), I saved the day by discovering I could be satisfied with 200-300 more calories. That's an improvement over the past. So its 4 p.m. and I'm already at 1600 calories, my limit.

It will be interesting to see how the rest of the day goes.

Tonight is the local Robbie Burns dinner and I am one of the cooks, so am going to the hall shortly to serve Roast Beef Dinner to 130 people. I was looking forward to same meal myself, but now I'm not hungry. I'll rush home to tell you how I managed the evening.
 
Did you eat lots of veggies while working the line? Anytime I cook, I seem to eat more bell pepper sticks and rings than I serve. :D And wax beans, too :p

Even if you fill up on roast beef, it isn't that bad :D At least you're serving healthy food!
 
feeling full

Well I am surprised at how full I am with 1600 calories. Is this really a deficit amount? I am fuller these days than in previous weightloss attempts where I thought going hungry was de rigeur.

Weighin tomorrow morning.
 
just noticed

I just noticed my replies. I was full while serving dinner but enjoyed a taste before leaving. Later in the night I had the opportunity to talk myself through a stressful situation, it was good practice. I told myself that I was tired and not hungry so I made myself just lay there on my bed until it was time to leave to pick up my son.

I changed my name because I want a nickname. I am happy because I have survived my life thus far. I love where I'm at on the inside.

I finally feel that I have the tools I need to achieve a healthier weight. Friends, recognition. Need patience.

Weighin in the morning. Don't have a digital scale so it might be hard to tell.
 
wentover

Well I went over my calories a bit but I'm not even going to get emotional about it. Don't go there girl. What's done is done. I admitted them all on Fitday. Having done that the damage is not that bad. Its better than not knowing how much I've eaten.

Seeing all the before and after photos is really inspiring me to keep it up. Also getting responses from readers keeps me plugged in to doing this each day.
