Kawgirl's Journey

[Kawgirl]

Hello,

This is actually day4, but I was debating about doing the blog thing. I have pretty much tried to not obsess about the diet thing. It seems that every time I diet..it runs my life. Thinking about food and eating more than usual.

I lost about 50 lbs doing Atkins several years ago, so I know it works. I decided to give it another try.

This time around, I am 4 days into it, lost 6 lbs and am EXHUSTED. I can barely keep my eys open and its 10am!!!!

I have taken my vitamin, and have been for a couple of years, drank my coffe and 30 oz of water since 7:30am. So, why am I soooo tired??

Anyway, I'm here to reach the goal of under 200!! I REALLY want to meet this goal this year!!!!

So I will try to blog regualarly and see if that helps keep me motivated.

Last day of induction! It has gone pretty well. I am still not able to eliminate alcohol, so I am trying moderation and low carb.

I am down 8lbs, feeling pretty good!!

Still a LONG way to go, but determined to make it happen.

This year, I [color="Purple"]WILLCOLOR] make it under 200, first time in 12 years. I am moderately excercising, I was planning on getting closer to 222, my lowest, then kicking up the excercise machine to blow past the 222 mark!

My appetite has dropped off, so I am staying pretty close to induction foods, with smaller portions for a bit.

Ok, I am going to vent a bit today.

I am doing GREAT on my eating, I am doing nothing on excercise and I can't seem to stay away from alcohol!! That is a weight loss stopper for my everytime!! But every week there is a "celebration" >

So its EASY to see why I am not losing.......

EXCERCISE
ALCOHOL

This week, I make a commitment to walk to work each day!!!!

Its a start in the right direction......

Baby steps!!!!
