I went to the gym inspite of the bitter cold!!! I am really happy that I did. During the last 2 minutes of my workout, my husband was in my ear (literally) saying "Amp it up, Amp it up"....I was on that elliptical like a fool! It worked though...They say the first and the last minutes are what counts the most!

Current Weight - 240 lbs (-15 lbs)

This morning kicked butt! My scale was reading at 240 lbs. I was not sure how long the scale was going to stay steady, but I am glad it moved!

Today I had a lot of energy despite staying up past midnight watching The Departed.I again stayed within my dieting parameters. I took in about 1200 calories and restricted fat to 60 grams. My carb level was around 20 grams. Only issue today was I did not add celery. However, for dinner I had a taco salad. I even had a little of the bowl as I was under my allowed carbs today.

How did it become the end of February already? Man, time flew. So let's see, I have 25 days to lose 8 pounds. That might be a little tight but I'm going to try!

B: latte' and almonds
L: latte'
S: beef jerky, cucumbers, almonds
D: shrimp and veggies
S: 1/2 zone bar

I had packed a nice lunch today but didn't have time to eat it because of meetings. I ended up just grabbed a latte' and I didn't have fat to go with it so that was a bummer. Could have been worse I guess--can anyone say Snickers?

I often see myself and others laughing during stressful situations. Maybe we laugh to keep from crying. Laughing and letting go and letting God are great stress relievers.

We may feel discouraged, but never defeated.

The enemy may try to take your car, home, job, etc, just don't let the enemy or life steal your joy, faith and gratitude.

Stay connected to those who love you and truly "see" you. Isolation and depression are a set up...
