~~Bama4life's Journal~~

Hi Everyone who reads this.

This is my first time having a journal. I am very excited because I think this will help keep me accountable and motivated. I love posting on LCF and like all the people here! Everyone is always so supportive!
Well here goes:

My name is Audra for those who don't know me.
I have a wonderful family of 5.(DH, two girls and a boy) They are the light of my life. I brag on them often.
I have struggled with my weight for many years but it only became worse after I had children. I never lost any baby weight each time I had another child. I am not sure why, I guess I love food way to much.
I have been on LCF for over a year now and on and off I have lost 10, 20 even 30 lbs. but always failed to go off for some reason whether it be a holiday, a vacation anything and then when I go off plan, I stay off for weeks at a time, then I get back on the horse but fall off again.
I get very motivated and then BOOM! Off again.
I want to lose this weight for my children, I want to see them grow up and get married and I want to feel good about myself. I have always been told, oh you are so pretty and if you would only lose that weight you would be a knockout. Well, I am starting my journal to say I have had enough, I am losing this weight, I don't care what I have to do!!!

I will post everyday if possible for me to keep me going. I need all the help I can get.

**To anyone who reads this, please post when you want, I would love to hear from you all!! **

Well, this is my actual FIRST day back on plan! I am doing Atkins '72, I feel like I can stick to it the best and I want to see some results so I am trying so hard!
Menu:
Breakfast: 2 eggs, bacon and cherry coke zero
Lunch: 2 small dill pickles, and two small grilled cajun fish filets
Dinner: probably chicken breasts and small house salad
**Already had 33.8 oz. of water and I am already almost floating away....
Going for more here in a minute.....
I am snacking on SF chewing gum, yep gum, it really helps me to not stray!

I am really trying this time harder then ever. I was looking at old pics of mine the other day with DH and almost the entire time we have been married I have been overweight. I never lost any baby weight with each child and yet I just never seemed to care. Now, whenever I see myself in the mirror I am horrified. Heck I used to be a cheerleader in high school, sure I have always had a weight problem but never like this. I always had to try but it seems like after I had the kids and was married that I just didn't care anymore.

I just want so badly to have my body back, a small butt and tiny waist, I used to have such a tiny waist, I always had a butt but not the one I have NOW

DH is so kind about everything, He is loving and caring and doesn't seem to care but you know he would love to see me small again. I really want to do this for myself and him. Lord, please help me to stay on plan and do what's right for myself...

WOW!!! I am so excited today, I am down 9 pounds as of Monday morning and really sticking to it. I am so glad, I have really done it.

I am just taking each day one day at a time. This WOE really works!!!!

So far today I have only had 8 carbs and loads and loads of water.
I know I can do this for myself.

This journal really helps too....
