Mercy Me

Well, I was so upset about my visit to lawl that I forgot to tell you guys that I stayed op!  I walked one mile! And I was concious of everything I put in my mouth.  Did I get a little hungy? yes! But I had some water and it filled me right up.  Today, I haven’t eaten as much as I should have.  That’s the hardest thing is getting in all of my foods.  I’m so use to cramming everything into one huge disaster after I get off work.  So, I am just putting dinner on.  Skinless, boneless, chkn breast.  String beans and 1/2  of a potato.  No exercise today but That’s all good.  LAWL made me mad again but all in all they are teaching me the correct way to eat. So i’m greatful.  Well, have a wonderful wk end and I’ll check in on you guys later.rn

I had a very emotional day today.  I went in to lawl and of course they wanted me to buy a whole bunch of money worth of stuff!  I’m sure it will help but it clearly states in the contract that I read again later that I don’t need them to be successful.  I broke down and cried because I couldn’t afford the “stuff”  so I left and regrouped and told them I would only buy what I needed. I feel much better.  I was very angry.  I guess they thought I would be so excited about losing another five pounds.  I will be excited to keep losing 2 pounds a week.  That, I will be excited about.  It’s always easy in the beginning.  So, Yea I lost 5 pounds but which makes it a total of 7 since  monday but my personal goal is to stick this out and get to my goal. 

I never thought shopping for groceries could be so hard.  Everything I had to buy was so much more expensive than regular food. I always have to pay extra for  an x-x-l t-shirt but food too!  I hope I made good choices.   I didn’t eat my planned breakfast I ate a bananna and a nectarine and water.  I was running late.  Lunch I ate a small bourban chicken from quiznos. less than six grams of fat.  Dinner, baked chicken, steamed broccoli, and 1/2 a potato.  Tomorrow is my official weigh in day. Thursdays.  I feel good about it. I got in 1 mile of walking today.  I was relieved to know that and I was getting paid at the same time.  I had an outdoors manager meeting today.  I have only drank about 24 ozs of water so far so I have a lot to go.  I just put a liter in the freezer so I hope I can drink that down and I should be all set.  maybe just one extra cup to do after that.  I’m having a hard time not using lawreys seasoning salt and Mc Cormick garlic salt.  I absolutely love them both.  I have to end that love affair.  Remember, “what you do today will inspire someone tomorrow.”

I had a pretty decent day today.  I went to weigh in and I lost two pounds.  I guess it was two.  LAWL gurantees 5 pounds in the first wk I think but I didn’t care what the scale showed.  I just want to succeed.  I don’t want any gimics.  I truely think they will teach me how to eat correctly.  I think that’s most important.  I am astonished at what they want me  to eat for breakfast.  I will eat 4 times during the day.  The hardest thing will be cutting out the salt intake.  I love well seasoned foods.  I guess I will have to learn how to season my food in other ways and get probably better tasting food.  I hope!  I ate bacon and I wasn’t suppose to have it but I’m pretty sure I will live and learn.  I really have NO CLUE as to what healthy eating is.  Well, I was actually excited to wake up and log on this morning.  I got in no exercise it rained all day and suppose to rain tomorrow too!  I have an outdoor meeting tomorrow.  Well, good night all. Remember, “what you do today will inspire someone tomorrow.”

Well, today was my first day on the lawl program.  It’s called fast forward and I sucked at it.  I didn’t drink my water or the juice that they gave me so now I’m trying to get it all in which means I’ll be going all night long. Tomorrow will be better.  I will have to prepare a bit more.  I am glad to be back on a program going in the right direction.  They gurantee I will lose in two days but I think I screwed that up.  They say this should kick my metabolism into high gear.  No exercise but me and my sister will be walking tomorrow.  Good night all!

I was shocked to see my name in Jo’s blog.  I have been gone a while and of course it’s because I fell off course.  I simply quit!  There’s no sugar coating it.  I just simply quit!  I’m sorry to all of my buddies and I want you yo know that I signed up with LA weight loss.  I had to go somewhere or I knew I wouldn’t start back up on my own.  My program starts on monday and I’ll be on the fast track for two days and off I go.  I’m glad I’ll be back and I’ll be guilt free!  I have a lot of catching up to do.  Hello all!  I missed you.  I’ve been signing on but too ashamed to message you.   So, I’m back and I’m glad to see all of you still here.
