My Bad Choices



Today is March 3rd.  My weight is 153.8#.  January 1, 2016 my weight was 154.4#.

My WI on February 1st was a whopping 157.0.  Oh My Lord...the most I have ever weighed.  I mean that weight was more than I weighed when I was pregnant either time.  And, I gained over 40# with both of my children.

Will I never learn that you have to eat healthy, restrict calorie intake and up physical activity to lose WEIGHT!  It is not a big secret...not rocket science...just a whole lot of common sense information that I know and have know all my life.  Then, why the heck can't I get my act together.  For crying out loud, I am 71 1/2 years old.  I don't have a lot of time left to get this right folks.

Listen to this funny...I ate 4 (not 2 but 4) brownies with walnuts last night.  Yep, that's right, scarfed all 4 down then had to have a few salty potato chips to get the "sweet taste" out of my mouth.  How blasted funny is that!  AND, I am trying to lose weight..RIGHT, what is wrong with that picture.

OK, so tail kicking, blackballing and verbal punishment is over.  

TODAY, I start new.  I have a fresh clean start to my day.  Healthy breakfast done.  Healthy lunch and dinner planned out.  If I must have something sweet later, then it will be a 321 Pineapple or Lemon cake.  Portioned for satisfying that need for sugar. But, there will be no double or even triple portions of it..nope, no more of that.

I am asking God to give me the mental and physical strength that I need to succeed.  I have a goal of reaching 130# by August 15th.  You know that is very doable.  That is about 24 weeks to lose 23#.  Discipline will be required for sure.

Spring is coming and that will mean more physical activity.  I need a lot of that right now.  I have a free gym membership (being old and all) but I prefer outside activity. 

OK, let's see how this goes.
