Well, it's been over 2 weeks since I started my new life and DietBet and Weight Watchers. How am I doing you ask? I know you didn't really ask, but you're reading this so obviously you're dying to know. Well, I'm proud to say, I think it's sticking!!! I have not had a soda in close to 3 weeks... NONE!! Eno at Sonic probably thinks I've died. I pretty much have drank water and sparkling water. I saved my points for beer a couple of nights. I had a nonfat latte tonight but again... I had to points. I have not had more than a taste of refined sugar and I have stayed within my points. And I honestly, for real, not lying, feel great!! I feel empowered, I feel more energy, confidence and will power!! Is it hard? Heck yeah, but not nearly as hard as I thought. Do I miss some things... Oh yeah! But, I know that food is an addiction and a VERY slippery slope for me so at this point, I have to avoid things that could send me down that slope.
Have I exercised? Why yes, yes I have. I don't do the gym. It's just not my thing right now, but maybe it will be someday. I am walking and actually running. Just a bit, but I am doing it and it's hard and uncomfortable, but it feels good to do it and I can move more already just from a few days of getting off the damn couch. I do so love the couch, but I need to get off it more often. I am planning to do a 5k sometime in June for sure, maybe sooner and I would like to run at least half of it. That's my goal. But what is my weight goal you ask? Well, I don't really have one. I can't focus on the scale. I have to weigh in for WW, but I am trying to keep that away from my focus. I have a goal of fitting on a ride at Six Flags, and not using a seatbelt extender on a plane and shopping in a regular store. My goal is to LIVE and not be a prisoner of my weight. To be an example of health, courage, self-control, overcoming, and the hardest... patience. I know it's only been 3 weeks, but I can see my journey ahead, you know picture it in my head. Once I can do that, I know I will get there. So, look out... there is a skinny bitch in here that's breaking out...one good choice at a time!.
