day 5- steak and tomatoes
i hate cravings. and i hate commercials for fast food. but in good news i finally made it to steak day!! well yesterday i ended up cheating. i felt ok at the time but when i got up this morning i just felt like crap for doing it. here's what yesterday consisted of: 5 bananas 3 large glasses of milk 5 or 6 small bites of my husbands delicous steak 1/2 bowl of soup so today day 5. i have no idea how i'm going to do this. i can have 10-20oz of steak or chicken. so what ill probably do is have a 8oz piece of steak for lunch and a piece of chicken for dinner. i'm going to get some stewed tomatoes and heat them up and pour them ontop the steak. yummy. |

day 4- holla back girl
so i had a change in meal plan last night. my husband decided he wanted 2 footlong subs. i kid you not. and he ate them both. he's 6'1 about 170 pounds. but he works outside so he burns stuff fast and has an awesome metabolism. i hate him lol. but anyway, we went up there and i figured i could get a veggie delite sub with no dressing which depressed me cause i don't really care for plain salad. but then i saw it.....red wine vinegerette. 0 everything!! so i had one of the most delicious salads ever, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, green pepper, olive, spinach, onions, and dressing.
well anyway, today is banana and milk day. so my goes as follows:
breakfast: milk (i have to go buy bananas)
lunch: milk and 2 bananas
dinner: soup, a banana or two, and a large glass of milk
i'm starting to feel better. i still hate my body but everyday as i see the scale go down more and more, even if it's just 1/2 a pound i feel good. today i have hit 200. thats big for me. especially since my highest weight was only a about 6 months ago at 235. i don't see a difference in my body but i can feel it and see it in the clothes i wear. none of my pants fit, i'm happier when i go to work, i wear a little bit tighter shirts and they look good. only a couple people know that i'm working out and dieting. My best friend, my husband, and a co-worker. I'm not telling anyone else, I just want to lose the weight and let them go "you look great!" im an attention whore lol
i'm off to workout now. today is my progess report. i have to do certain excersises and the program sees what kind of improvement i've made. here's what i have to do: (see, lists, i make them)
- take my resting pulse
- do jumping jacks for 2 minutes (or as long as i can do it)
- take pulse (everytime i do it, turns out that jumping jacks are a low impact workout for me)
- do squats (max of 50-i can do 50)
- do crunches (max of 50-i can do at least 50)
- do pushups (max of 50-i can do like 3-i'm no good at them at all, no upper body strength)
- enter new weight
- enter new goal
after that i need to go buy bananas, do dishes, do laundry, then im going to take a nap. :)

day three- fruits and veggies
so last night for dinner i only ended up eating the potato. oh well, less food. well crap, i didnt weigh myself this morning. brb.......woot!! 202. still not enough but getting there. ok today is fruits and veggies day. so here goes the menu! breakfast: water and a cig (hey, i'm running late and i need to workout still, tkae a shower, and then go open the store) lunch: cup and a half of soup and about a cup and a half of mixed fruits snack: mandarin oranges (man i love these little things!) dinner: soup (if i feel i can stomach it) and a bowl of fruit i cant wait til tomorrow. i love bananas and milk :) i was thinking about this last night. this diet wants you to eat. whenever you get hungry you can eat. hell even if you thik you are hungry you can eat. i personally am not a big fan of eating but this is like one of those "perfect" diets. well, off to working out. Current Mood: awake |

if my computer wasn't broken, id whine about my weight more often lol sooo grand total 11 pounds down. i've been at 204 for 3 days now so to me it's official. if i can keep a weight 3 days, thats my new weight. i did almost completely cut out soda from my diet. i might have one every other day or something. i'm also going to do the sacred heart thing again. i loved the way it made it feel. i'm going to miss my sandwhiches for the next seven days though and my kashi (sp?) bars lol. sadly any thoughts that i just had in my head have totally left and i have nothing else to say even though i did have a whole bunch to say :) |

i was thinking to day: on july 29, it will be a month since i seriously started dieting. ive lost and gained and ultimately in almost a month ended up with a loss of 10 pounds (and this was mostly in the past 6 days). for the record i gained like 3 pounds this morning after my last day of SHD yesterday. i hate myself right now. i was feeling so damn good the past few days and now i just want to curl up and cry. sometimes i think i'll never look how i want to and it's some kind of cruel cosmic joke to be fat. all the good people with great senses of humor and who are really nice and have great personalities are fat. so ultimately im feeling like the universe is telling me that i cant be skinny because im a good girl. so today i begin anew.....again. so far nada. im not a big breakfast eater anyway. ill probably get a yogurt for work. ill be better tomorrow i know. |

today is the last day of my SHD week. I'm kinda sad to see it go. i did great, i feel great, and im ready for the next chapter. last night we went out to ryan's buffet with some friends and all i had was 1 helping of beef and veggies. and it was all i needed. i also decided last night (after a few beers so im not sure if i meant it lol) that im going to cut out my soda. i ve been feeling so good drinking only water and juice and the occasional tea. it was great, when we went to sam's club we had 1 cart of water and 1 cart with other things. i actually feel good. i dont think i have felt this good in awhile, especially about myself. |

yay!!!! 10 DOWN 15 MORE TO GO!!!! |
| 9:05 am |
ok so i have decided that keeping a journal is just not working with the everday writing what i eat thing. most of ya'll know im doing the SHD now. I'm on day 6: eat as much beef as i want and veggies. i have lost 10 pounds so far which is a great self booster thats for sure. i mostly did this diet in hopes that if it worked, it would be a great to have something that would jumpstart me and this is working for sure. i'm feeling good. my husband has said that i can do it once a month. i love my husband. he always says i dont eat enough but lately, after seeing how happy i am with my 10 pounds gone, he said he wont tell me taht and make me eat. he;ll even not let me gorge. he is going to support me no matter what i do. truth is im procrasting the inevitable workout sooooooo, i'm gonna go do that so that i can practice singing for karaoke tonight and clean house. |

im contemplating the 2468 diet. i guess i have all day to decide cause i usually sit at no more than 100 calories for the day by 5pm. ugh no i cant start today. friday nights are date night where we order pizza or china food and watch movies and eat popcorn. friday would have to be a 800 day. well nevermind lol. i talked to roger about the SHD. he actually said ok which is awesome. he usually yells that im not eating enough and he wont go along with anything that includes me not eating. i told him it was a hospital diet and that i'd always be eating on it just certain foods. ok, going to figure out what's for dinner tonight. |
