So today is truce day. Or more commonly known as weight in day, I started this diet a week ago today as the scales say I've lost a whopping 2 pounds. Woo Hoo for me. I guess that better than gaining 2 pounds. I don't know I guess when you work as hard as I have this week you just expect it to fall off. But it will continue to come off, slower weight loss is better anyway, so I've been told. I did an 12 min ab lounger work-out yesterday and let me tell it works those muscles. I am sore today, but if it works it will be well worth it. Well I'm off to bed! Night all.

Yea Bev!!!!! I am so proud of you!!!

Yes, the perfect weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week. This means you are losing fat, not muscle or water.

Remember, a pound of fat equals 3500 calories! So you have been buring the calories this week, to lose 2 lbs! Wow! I am so happy for you.
Plus muscle weighs more than fat, but takes up less space. (Yippy!!!) Since you are working out, you are actually building muscle that you didn't have before, so that is why the scale is moving slower than you had hoped. But don't give up, slow and steady wins the race!

WOO-HOO!!!! You go girl! Keep up the Great Workouts Bev! :)

Where did this come from and please let it go!!!! Depair, Darkness, Depression, Saddness, Hopelessness, Terrified, Unknown, Unworthy, Pain, Why me, Anger and those are to just name a few. As you can see this is not going to be one of those happy go luck post, in fact I don't even know wy I am doing this here. I have to get this out and I figure here better than some of the other places it could go. I am not doing this for your sympathy, disapproval, approval, opinion, or anything else. If you want to encourage me than that fine but I can't handle much else right now. Last week I knew something was really out of wack I would be literally burning up and freezing at the same time. I could cry at the drop of a hat and I couldn't eat anything, it was 4 days before I had realized I hadn't had anything to eat. So I made the dreaded appointment with the ole Dr. That morning I told one of my co-workers I thought I was going crazy. She just kindof laughed me off and told me ...

So many ask but do they really want to know! I started this lifestyle change as I like to call it the first of June and when I started I weighed (I can't believe I'm doing this) 191 and today I weigh 146. So needless to say I have lost a lot of weight really fast. So for some reason people think I have found this instant cure. They come up to me and say so Beverly what are you doing and when I start telling them that I have changed my diet such as they way I cook(no oil, no butters, no fatty meats, starchy food, things such as that) and I exercise every day, it's like I loose them. They go somewhere else, like they expected something else. I honestly have done this by a total lifestyle change. I have changed everything. I don't use sugar for anything anymore, I have changed to skim milk( I buy 2% for the kids), I fix a lot of the same meals we use to have I have just changed the way I prepare them. I just don't use butter or margarine I use I can't believe it...

Time for change! After having this blog for a couple of years now, I thought I would label it something that is more me. When I first opened this I didn't have a clue as to what to call it so now after thinking on it for 2 years it makes perfect sense.
