two week up date.
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. 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! |

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. Angie "OceanView" wrote in message ...

I just looked up Tim Horton's online and it looks a lot like our Dunkin' Donuts with lunch added. I'm not sure I could work there! I'd have to be on a permanent coffee high.

thanks. Yah most of our food is not worth waisting calories or points. But
I still have the soups and a bagel every now and then. And I make myself a salade using what we would use for our sandwiches. And it helps. I live work now feeling satisfied an not stuffed or feel gross cause I ate so much junk Angie "SnugBear" wrote in message .4... "Angie" wrote: Thanks.

yes but even bagels aren't that great high in calories and carbs and most of
them are high in fat too. Angie "OceanView" wrote in message ...
