My weight loss journal

Back on the diet again.

First time I tried it I was a little skeptical about this but then again, what do I have to lose? Oh yeah, a LOT of extra weight. I lost about 20 pounds this year. I need to loose another 15-20 pounds so decided to do it again. The problem is that I love to cook and bake and I love to eat J you can check out my other blog if you don’t believe me www.recipewithpictures.blogspot.com

I will do 2 weeks of SMD and than 2 weeks of KT.

I will write about my weight loss and about the meals I will prepare.

It's not easy..., but this is a commitment I've made and I won't give up.

Here is a progress chart if you need it, just print it and stick it on your refrigerator door.

It's not all about weight loss for me. I want to feel good and look good.

I will follow the diet plan, hopefully J

I know I am not strong enough and I will eat chocolate. Somehow I can’t control it, I dream about chocolate, it drives me crazy.

Usually I take a bag of baby carrots to work, just in case I start to feel hungry. When I first started this diet I was hungry throughout the day. The first week is cruel, after that you get used to it.

For me, it’s a celebration every time I sit down at the dinner table, this is why I plan my meals ahead and I try to prepare something special, even if we are on diet. Yes, I wrote “we”, because my boyfriend is going to do it with me.  Am I lucky or what? I know, it’s going to be fun, we will loose weight together and we will motivate each other.

Wish us good luck!
