Lose weight the fun way.

Posted on December 31, 2014

This is my first diet bet challenge and I am excited to be a part of the experience. In February, my husband and I have a military ball we are attending. Since this is my first ball, I want my husband to be proud of me as I walk into the room round his arm. As it is, he believes I am perfect just the way I am, so this reason for participating is even more important to me. I want to thank my FB pal, Connie, for getting me involved. She has been an inspiration to me ever since I was accepted to her FB page.

I intend to do my best in this challenge, and I feel so lucky to be among a terrific group of wonderful women on the same mission as me. Good luck to everyone!

I am finally starting see results toward my goal of losing a few pounds around my midsection. Thank goodness. For the record, dieting around PMS, and going through The Change, is a challenge all by itself. LOL!! I believe any woman that can defeat these odds, is a Superwoman. Ladies, I am learning how to listen to my body so that I can properly combat eating unnecessarily due to hormonal cravings, opposed to actual hunger cravings. Learning the difference has been a HUGE success for me.

New strategy. Over the next three days, I will stick to a specific meal plan, which I have set in place. In addition, when I find myself less than content; at any point throughout the day, heading for the kitchen (with no reasonable purpose), then I shall grab my yoga mat and meditate until I find inner peace and move on to more productive tasks at hand. Yes, my game plan shall work. Ladies, we got this! Stay strong and be the best 'you' possible today. Say it, "I plan to do my best to succeed my goals today" (((-: I can.

It's day two after my weigh in. As of this morning I was a few ounces less than yesterday; however, I might have eaten plenty this afternoon to make up for the slight deficit. Which brings me to a valid question. Sometimes I wonder if my increased appetite is real, or am I bored? Since I began working from home--and now that I have easy access to my pantry and fridge--I often sneak bites of 'this and that' randomly throughout the day. Hmm. Even thought I workout near high intensity every morning, I am uncertain if the intensity justifies my (not being very hungry) cravings. Oh well, it's time to figure out why I over indulge, especially when I feel 'a little hungry'. Either way, I got this! It's all about girl power. And I got the power! !

Well, this morning my scale produced a pleasant surprise. I am down a few ounces, which is alright with me. My game plan is a few ounces per day so that I will keep the weight off, and my body is not shocked by a sudden and unrealistic weight loss. This journey is exactly what I needed to hold myself accountable for the overeating that I have been doing lately. Good luck to everyone. I am cheering for you.
