Here I Am!

I agree with Molly and I am going to be joining her for a starting over day.  The summer is over and I am ready to stand still and have no more holidays that revolve around food until Thanksgiving.  I have had a hard time with motivation these past few weeks.  I don't know if any of you are having a hard time with energy right now, but that seems to be my issue.  Ever since I stopped doing optifast I just feel sluggish and tired all the time.  Every morning I set my alarm for 5am and every time I reset it for a later time.  I'm pretty sure I know the issue but I love bread, rice, and pasta so much!  I can feel such a difference when I'm not eating complex carbohydrates.  So my goal for the next week is to watch the carbs, and I will do that by tracking my calorie intake on livestrong.com.  I will track every food that passes through my lips.  My current weight as of this morning is 256.6.  I have gained 12 pounds since my peak weight loss 1 month ago.  Somethings gotta change and I've got to find some motivation, this is getting ridiculous.

  1. Yea!! Restarting is going to be AWESOME!!! (that's positive thinking right there) And I hear ya about the carbs - I love them all. Why don't they love me back? Or maybe that's the problem - they love me too much and won't get off my hips and thighs...

  2. I hear you too Carrie about not having motivation. I am right there with you! I notice a difference in my energy level when I eat complex carbs, diet soda etc. Then when you don't feel good it's even harder to start eating better, ah the vicious cycle.
