my journey seems like the neverending story....

It's so yummy!!! girly!!! ummm.. I had to get creative when I noticed all that I was allowed. So I peel the apple slice it up throw cinnamon and splenda or no splenda depends on how sweet I feel..:)
and I have done both ways baked it in the oven for like 15 minutes or microwave it for 5 mins.. It is good!!! I really like it and not to shabby on the calories.. very healthy...
 
>=D hehe i stole a "borrowed" a bunch of splenda packets when i saw them at this restaurant the other day... the food was bleh... soo i was just getting my moneys worth =P hmmm i will have to buy some cinnamon and apples the next time im at the grocers. thanks for sharing!!

I couldn't resist so I got on the scale to see how much I had lost on day 4 of the cohen diet.. and yes indeed 2 more pounds.. I have mest up a little you know 6 extra shrimp. 20 more grams of cauliflower.. but regardless it's also day 4 of no alcohol and I feel energized awesome my day wakes up better and goes to sleep with a head on. I have really had time to experience more within myself.. I noticed that last year I was running away and I couldn't find an exit. Now I'm truly on the path to find myself.. I am happy, motivated, and energetic. I'm very much at peace with the person I am today and look forward to whats' in store for me February here I come...:[arty: :party: wooooooooooooohooooooooooo!!!!!!!:angelsad2:

Yeah I'm allowed to use the sprays but I haven't used them.. I have been getting carried away on the salt though for sure...Tilapia is fish.. A really good tasting fish that says is allowed.. I can't wait to lose a lot more...It's been really really hard.. I'm not use to eating so little I always want to munch on something.. You know but I am trying the best I can... Thanks. I hope I get the 5 pounds that I need by next wednesday so I can get 3 more sauna body bag sessions..:).. Omg.. so that pic challenge.. I was like oh no but I did it.. whatever!!! Hey I don't take vitamins do those help give you energy as well??
 
Sweety, you need to get on to getting some multivitamins, not only do they give you more energy but they help with a few different things. There should be a list on your plan what your multivitamins should contain and what they do for you!!
oh okay a fish, wow, I feel stupid!!I have never heard of it.
Good onya girl for joining that pic challenge you will be glad you did!!
You will get there, I will get there, we will all get there together!!
 
I had a cup of coffee black which I like always..

Spoken in Homer Simpson voice...MMMMM coffeeee...

I learned to drink coffee from my Dad. He was a fighter pilot in the Navy or as he would say a "Naval Aviator" He used to have what he called a "navy breakfast" which was a cup of black coffee and a marlboro red.
 
Hey Ivette...Im sittin here thinkin (dangerous, I know) but anyway it struck me that maybe this great roll you are on is kinda a God thing...I mean you will likely be much more able to help and motivate your sister if your crap is really together, and think of how together you are getting...That in itself is bound to impact your sisters situation in a positive way. Im telling you positive life changes can have unexpected good effects.....Okay Im done thinkin now...I do admire your perseverance

You know what Brawny!!! Maybe it is a God sent thing because I am making a comlete 180 all together. I am getting healthy, I have stopped drinking, I am working my ass off on my body and on my job and in my brain... Your right sometimes God works in mysterious ways. If I can be a good example to myself and lead an awesome life than what an awesome example I will be giving. I am finally starting to believe in myself to extremes. i mean I am so damn motivated. All day I have positive energy and I try to find a positive solution for any obstacle that comes my way. Funny that you say that today I got a letter from her.

Where she says "What's up sister? I'm really scared. I guess that's what I get. It's all my bad karma. The whole time I've been here it hasn't hit me till right now. I guess all this had to ahppen for me to change my ways. God works in mysterious ways. This is what I get for hurting my family. The ones who truly love me. I am so sorry. I am so embarresed. I owe you and mom the world. I am so mad at myself, I have so much anger inside. I was doing so damn good for a minute, What the fuck made me relapse? I still don't understand. Everyday I tell myself what lead me into all this mess. I guess this had to happen for me to change my ways. Now I see it is that everything that happens for the better. Now I'm gonna get out and start my new life. I pray to God everynight to help me and give me strength.Thank you for always being by my side and never ever giving up on me. I'm sorry again for everything."

So this letter I received today. I basically typed it all in because I thought it was beautiful. I love her so much and your right maybe God did do this. She wasn't going to get better. She never writes to me she calls me and it's intresting that you mentioned that comment and that I started reading this book and that she wrote me... Well thanks for always checking up...You are awesome, yes u are.. I tell you that without such beautiful, wonderful, heart warmed people.. on here I don't know where I would be... I really appreciate everything..
 
Aint we great! I am having about 2-3 positive comments a day from people now. The best is when I see some one that I havent seen in about 6 months and they go "Have you lost weight?" I just smile and say "yeah..thanks for noticing" but on the inside Im goin...HELL YEAH>>LIKE 40 FREAKIN POUNDS!!!

Well I gotta go study...
 
Way to believe in yourself, girl! Your positive attitude helps me stay motivated when I read your diary. Stay strong.
 
Wow, so much positive attitude in here, definitely got to hang out in here more often! Keep up the AWESOME work!

Big Big Big test Feb 26th and 27th...Thats right a 2 day test where anything for the whole doctorral work (21 courses) is fair game.

Anyhow Hope your day is going good. You are the MVP of January girl...Look at all the people who you are inspiring!

Good work, girly!! You are doing soooooo well!!! Im so impressed you handled yourself very well when you went out for lunch!!
Your yoghurt sounds yummy!! Dont worry Im known as a partier too!! So since I have turned into the DD(Designated Driver) I get plenty of funny looks! Stay strong you are doing awesome!! Bye Bye love handles!!:smilielol5:
 
:party:AWESOME!:party:​

It sounds like you are really getting the big wheel turning! You're showing a lot of restraint lately, for sure. It's the only way to go.

I know what it's like to stop partying and everyone is shocked to find out. I used to be a big-time partier myself back in the day. I was that dude that could drink 4 pitchers of beer in an hour and still win a foosball tournament back in my fraternity parties. I also did a lot of herbals. On the eve of my wedding, I announced at the bachelor's party that it would be the last time... Everybody stopped and they were like WHAT?! I had a bottle of tequila all by myself, about 30 large cups of beer, and emptied my 1/2 oz bag of herbals... :troll: All in that night. Puked like the "Exorcist" as well. But, I was the only one that woke up the next day without a hangover. LOL

Been clean since. Can't even stand the smell of alcohol anymore. I'm pretty sure I probably would get tipsy after just a couple of beers. Last time I had a beer was like.. A few years ago.

Anyhow, CONGRATULATIONS on turning over a new leaf!!

It gets much, much easier over time. Keep on trucking! :driving:

Cheers,
G
