The reason I have given up so much of the junk food is
because of doctors orders. I have adult acene and until I
get it cleared up there will be no little indulgences. I am
past my cravings stage and I do have a trick which helps me
if I do crave and that is to drink chocalate milk when ever
I want something I can't have and trust me it does work.
Thanks for taking time to read my post and for the
suggestions I will
definelty keep them in mind.

I am doing this up date now, because it will be the
two week mark on
Monday. I have given up so much in the last two weeks.

donuts
muffins
timbits
croissants
tea biscuts
white bread
sugar
high carb foods have cut back on
diet coke and diet pepsi
potatoe chips
french fries
fast foods
all junk food
white flour
cut back on whole wheat bread
salt

I am sure that there are others that I am leaving out.
I weighed in early
today cause I had a feeling that I had lost more weight.
And as of today I am down 5lbs. I started over with
weight watchers on June 7/04 and I am glade that I did.
I am starting to eat better. And have cut back on the
amount that I eat drastically. Mainly because of the
diet, but also mainly because it is extremly hot, and I
don't really like to eat a hole lot when it's hot.
I have also been exercising again , and I am doing
more then I have ever
done before. I am biking and we don't just bike to the
corner store and back we go for 30 kilometers at a time
and 3 - 4 hours at a time. I have been walking anywhere
from 1 mile - 2 miles everyday for the last two weeks.
I started going to the gym again twice a week and am
doing ab work 3 -4
times a week. There are days where I wish I could go
back to my old way of eating. But Then when I rememeber
how I felt when I used to eat that way, I don't want to.
So I will keep this up. I am going home to visit my
family the week of
July 21/04 I want to be back at my original goal weight
of 125lbs by the 23 of july. That is also my uncles 61 b
day. So wish me luck.
Oyah before I forget to mention if I already haven't I
have lost 5lbs as
of today.
Thanks for listen and for the advice.

Good work, Angie!

Just make sure you're not setting yourself up for a
"craving crash." In other words, if you don't leave
yourself a little indulgence now and then, you start
feeling deprived and then before you know what happened,
you're knee deep in Twinkies!

My little indulgence is the cookie (3 inch) when I get my
morning coffee. (They give them away at the supermarket, I
can't keep them in the house.)

One tip about the party: eat before you go so that you're
full.

You're doing great!




Chocolate milk is exactly the kind little indulgence I meant.
It satisfies the craving, but does no real damage. Keep on!
