I now have almost 5 weeks under my belt and here is where I stand
Measurements will be done again at the end of the challenge
Very proud that I came back from vacation with a .4 loss and not a gain!

Today is a day that will never be forgotten.
One year ago today my wonderful loving awesome aunt went to be with the Lord.
I sure do miss and love you Aunt Beth!
Starting tomorrow I will be away on vacation and will not return to blogging until Monday Sept. 29th.
While on vacation I will not be off my healthy plan.
I love this show!
Tonight is the season premier and yes I will be watching it while I walk on my treadmil - if feeling better as it seems I am coming down with a sore throat and ear ache. Towards the end of last season (after I gave up going to the bowling ally) I began making the time the show came on my workout time doing either the elliptical or walking on the treadmil.
I get so much motivation and determination when I watch what these people go through and different things they experience as they not only change in appearance but also inside. It makes me think and feel “if they can do it so can I”
Will you be watching The Biggest Loser?

What I will do to stay commited to my plan……
Today and tomorrow are my last days on Phase 1 and as of Sunday I will slowly begin my trek into phase 2. Firstthing I have decided to add back is oatmeal. Wishe me luck on a smooth and successful transition into phase 2
and I know that I should cause I am wearing a pair of jeans I haven’t been able to fit into for over 3 years and boy do they look good!!!!
Phase 1 has really helped me get back on track - I feel more confident, happy, healthy and energized.
These are in no particular order
These are my then (size 18) & NOW (size 14) Jeans
Phase 1 was exactly what I needed to flush out the bad and begin the new. I feel so GREAT!
with hot crispy creme donuts or anything else they bring in. No I don’t want one!
I wish I could just wear a sign that says “on a healthy lifestyle of eating do not come around with unhealthy food” however this is not possible as I have no control over other people - I do have control over myself and DO NOT HAVE TO EAT UNHEALTHY.
I feel better that I have vented and I am ready to move on.
I seem to be doing pretty well with phase 1. Hunger is a major thing for me right now since TOM has come to visit yet I seem to be doing okay.
Lastnight was the first time I have exercised in over a week and it was just softball practice which my arm is feeling it today. I have got to get my butt in gear and workout.
I am definetly sleeping better. It’s amazing how your eating has a way of making your sleep functions different. Glad mine are for the good.
I am sticking real strick with the rules this go round. In the past I have changed some things like no beans, to much dairy or nuts. Not this time it’s strict and to the rule.
Won’t be weighing in tomorrow hubby and I have decided to change weigh day to Tuesdays so check back then.
