The Skinny

OKAY!! It is official! I have hit my -20 pound mark!! Woo Hoo! GO ME!! ok...enough of that! So I am down to 206 and I can see a difference already, which of course I am ecstatic about! I have really been watching what I eat. This lower carb thing must been the right diet for me. Now If only I can continue to lose weight that fast for the next twenty pounds.

So, I have really been trying to be good on this diet. I wish I could have enough will power to just do perfect the first 2 weeks. I am down to 212 today. I am extremely happy about it. Though, I havent exercised a lick, I do feel better. I suppose exercising would help the weight fall off, and it is getting nice and warm out. Who wants to be the one who has chapped inner thighs? NOT ME!! I better just get over it and bust a move. I vow that tomorrow will be a better day. I will eat right and exercise! What? I can!



Naturally when you meet the man of your dreams, and he insists on taking you out every single night of the week, the pounds seem to pack on. Well in my case they reallllly packed on. Im talking 80 pounds packed on!! I tried to diet, I really did! Unfortunately, I wasnt in the right state of mind to be on a serious diet. I wasnt even ready before I got married. It's been 6 months since my wedding and I am still 226 pounds. So I finally siked myself up enough to be serious about a diet. I wish I could tell you all about my weight watchers success, but this is not the right plan for me. So I went for the Atkins diet. I know, I know its unhealthy. Theres been so much talk about this diet being unhealthy but let me make my point. My husband did it the unhealthy way. He is a man after all. He would eat gigantic steaks, bacon cheeseburgers with no bread, steak and cheese without the bread etc. He never touched the vegetables like he was supposed to. I, on the other hand, loooove salad, raw and cooked veggies. I wouldnt say I do the Atkins diet by the book. I would say I try to do LOWER carbs than what I would normally eat ;-) Hey it has been working. Its been one month and I am down to 215 pounds!! Im happy with the results too. I would like to be 199 or less by June 4th. I am in my brother in laws wedding and would like to look better than the last wedding I was in. We shall see!!
