184 BABY!!!! I met my goal of 5 lbs and then some. I Will order my book today on Amazon. The moment it Clicks. My next 5 lb goal is 179. I haven't decided what I will reward myself with then, will have to think about it all day and post tomorrow what the reward will be.

I haven't been able to do any more tasks in my book, life is just too busy this time of year, but I am keeping up with the tasks I have done already.

Kristy's wedding was this weekend. I stuck to my plan, no cake, no nothing. It was hard, but I am so glad I did. I know if I had one bite of cake I...

I weighed 186.8 this morning. Woohoo! Now I am getting excited. I am only 8 tenths away from my 5 lb goal, then I get to treat myself in the cities with an hour in Barnes and Noble. Last week I weighed 190, so that is a 3.2 lb loss this week.

I haven't had time to do any tasks this week. I will try to get the book out tonite, but no promises. Life is just so busy this time of year. I am not complaining, I love it when it is busy. Winter almost kills me. If not for the kids, I would be so outta here. I need it warm all year long. I thrive in warmth.

My only goal for...

Did good again today. Today was weigh day. 190. I lost 1 lb last week. I am not disappointed. That means I lost 4 lbs a week for the last 2 weeks. If want to meet my first 5 lb. goal by kristy's wedding, I have to lose 4 lbs in the next 10 days. I think I better count calories and carbs for the next 10 days. I really want that shopping spree in the cities! I didn't get any walking in today, but I worked in the yard for 5 hours,...

Today's task is to start keeping track of everything I eat. When I write out my food plan the night before, then next day I have to keep that by me and check every thing I ate, cross out what I didn't, add things not kept on the list.

Once I accept the fact that I have to monitor my eating in this way, dieting will be easier.

Good Sunday afternoon......For tomorrow's task she has her readers Pan and monitor your eating in writing every days. I know this is a biggie for Weight Watchers, "tracking" your food intake. I guess I will start planning what I eat the day before on paper, then write what I eat here also. I am posting early today, have a feeling I will be in bed early tonite.

Tomorrow I am going to start with my exercise plan. I will walk a half hour tomorrow and work in the garden at least an hour. I have to get my tomatoes mulched, and the flowers mulched yet. I also have some impatients,...
