more diet news

Erika and I started a new diet Monday. She is getting married in September and wants to lose a little weight before we purchase her wedding dress. She is already beautiful to me but I want so much for her to feel she is beautiful, especially on her special day.
We each want to lose 20#. If we go for losing 4# per month we should be where we want to be by June. So far so good. I have lost 2# so far. I know that during the first week mostly what you lose is water weight but it is still good to see a smaller # on the scale!
Wish us luck!

New Years resolutions

The first and most important is to become more familiar with the bible. I need to take more time to read and learn Gods word.
My second resolution is to eat better and exercise more. I started yesterday. My mother made a strawberry cake and I didnt even eat any. I really love to eat so that was pretty hard for me. Alot of my problem is laziness. It is easier and cheaper to get a $1 hamburger than it is to prepare a healthy dinner. But I will do better from now on.

GRRRRRR

Guess what, starting on Wednesday didnt help either. I am still eating like crazy! I eat when I am hungry, I eat when I am not hungry, I eat when Im sad, I eat when I am bored. I need to stop eating so darn much!

dieting

I always start my diets on a Monday. Usually by Wednesday I have messed up and tell myself I will start again on Monday. I know that I am not grossly fat, but I am very uncomfortable with myself. My mom has many diet related illnesses. I never want to be sick like she is. I want to feel good about myself. I dont want my pants to be so darned tight! So today is Wednesday and I am going to start eating healthier today. Maybe if I break out of that Monday habit it will start off better.
I looked up what my ideal weight should be. It says 130-139 OMG I weigh 158. It seems that I have alot of work to do. I want to look good, to feel good, and to grow older being healthy. So here we go. I will keep you updated on my progress. I am serious this time. I have to do it now because I am steadly getting larger and larger.
Wish me luck!
