WLW: Just when you thought it was safe to eat…

Posted by admin on January 27, 2010

Weight Loss Wednesdays are BACK! Yup, it’s time to get serious about my weight…or more serious I should say. Over the past two years I’ve lost 57.4 pounds and I seem to have a mental block when it comes to hitting number 60. I get close then I sabotage myself so that I gain.

Why?

Heck if I know. My weight has been an issue all my life and honestly, I’m so OVER IT. After meeting my biological sisters I realized that I truly have the Big Ass gene. We’re all close to six feet tall and broad so thin and dainty is out for me. <g>

So, today I set myself up for success. I went to www.keyoe.com and bought a copy of their calorie / exercise calculator. It’s pretty cool – put in your food, measurements, weight, height etc and it calculates everything for you. You can also so set goals by date and the program calculates exactly how much you can eat, how much you should exercise etc. It’s cheap (14.95 for the XP version) and its easy to use.

I also hit the pool today (second time this week – WOOT) and I cooked yummy, well-balanced meals. So for day one, I’m doing good. LOL!

So my goal is set – to lose 2.6 pounds by February 1st, my fridge is stocked with healthy foods, my program is loaded and ready to go. Now I just have to behave myself. <g>
