The killer tortoise

Crazy turtle..I know this doesn't go with my blog but it is certainly funny!! Wow...that turtle really likes cats!!

Check this frog out too..

What's for Dinner..

That is the question!!! So I was going to order a pizza for my son & husband, and a chef sald for myself. Trying to decide if that is really a good ise considering. I haven't lost the will power yet, I just feel to good to screw it all up!! So, I am pretty sure that I can handle it...

I Forgot To Mention

Well back when I started the Zone diet I thought that I would start excercising. That didn't happen for wekks 1 & 2. This week I have walked 2 miles a day, so far everyday. What a difference in how I feel. I am happy to say that I actually look forward to walking!!
A couple of years ago my Mom had major neck surgery and she had a torso-track that she swore by. My Mom is a nut about her weight and figure, so if she finds something that works and then swears by it. I am game to try it. So I have been using that as well...good for the belly and the arms..

Well, I Did It!!!

Since I am a self proclaimed scale-whore, I guess it is only fitting for me to post this today! I was so very excited this morning, I got on the scale and low and behold, I finalluy got out of the 220's!!! Yup that's correct, 219.6!! LOL it's good enough for me.

Weighing in

That I come to realize that I am a scale whore!! You, I get on the scale twice a day. I know they say you should only weigh in one a week. But me, hell, I can't stay off the scale. I weigh myself every morning after I have been up for a while, but before I eat or drink anything. I then weigh myself again when I get home from work! Not quite sure why I do that but I do!!



They say it is not good to do it, weight can change on a daily basis and that I should really go by the way my clothes fit. I have asked my husband to his the scale and bring it out once a week. Well my husband is so supportive that he said "No!" So I guess I may have to recruit my 12 year old son. I honestly think that if I get rid of the scale, I will be more apt to stick to eating right.

Start of week 3

WOW...I don't remember the last time I really committed myself to a new weight of eating. I did the Atkins diet, lost 10 lbs the first week but by the end of week 2 I gave up. I am not really a big meat eater so I am sure that was part of my problem. The other was just the idea of meat and meat only for a while. I like veggies and fruit so I think that was the killer for me. The Zone diet is perfect. I can still have most of the fruit and veggies I love!!

End of week 2 is here

I really have fallen for this diet. I feel so wonderful. It is truley amazing that you can eat junk food for most of your life and in 2 weeks of eating correctly those cravings have almost disappeared. Every afternoon at work I would go to the lunch room and grab a cup of coffee and a cake from the vending machine. Last week I eer as much as thought about the vending machine.

BMI: 39.1
