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.

A little about me

Anyone who knows me, knows I have been trying everything in the world to lose weight since I had my son. Which was 12 years ago!! I am sure that most of my problem is pure laziness but now that I am 31 years old the weight doesn't come off as easy as it use to. I guess I am just tired of being over weight. I don't want to be super model thin, but I want to be comfortable with my own body. Which as of right now I am not!! So now that I am back to taking weight loss seriously again, I decided I would try some thing new.

I have tries several different diets. Let's see, there was Atkins, Weight Watchers (I joined every year for 6 years), 6 Week Body Make Over, Cabbage Soup, umm and just plain starve yourself diet. I would say that by far Weight Watchers seemed to work the best for me. The one problem is that it allows me to eat the foods I love..JUNK FOOD.

My weight problem started at 18. I think I was a little depressed. My parents had just moved away and I had gotten pregnant. I had my son 5 days after my 19th birthday and I really never got a grip after that. My problem was not eating alot of food, it was the food choices I would make. I would much rather eat chips then a piece of fruit. So I am hoping with trying the Zone, that I will get healthier.

So please check in daily to see how I am doing. It is a new experience for me, one that I hope to strive on!!! Have a great day!
