I hate snow.  Hate it!!!  The cold is depressing. I know the snow looks pretty. I did get lucky today. My aunt is sick so I get to stay home from work which saves me from having to drive 15 miles in this crap.  I know it doesn’t sound far but in this stuff it can take me an hour. I’m not confident in my snow driving abilities so I drive real slow.  I’d rather be safe then sorry.  I don’t mind driving in town but out of town is not my forte’.

Well, diet wise has been going okay. I am just not feeling phase 1 anymore. I have one more week until I can step on the scales and see how bad.  Honestly, I don’t think he meant for us to eat whatever we wanted but with no restrictions I did just that. I’m not going to dwell on it. I made the actual changes with what he meant to do in the book.  The good thing is that I feel confident enough to go onto phase 2 where we can at least weigh in weekly.  This waiting four weeks to weigh in has been a killer for me. I used to weigh in daily. Okay, daily may not be the way to go either but my thinking is that if I don’t have to weigh in for a month then my mistakes won’t show until then.  Not good thinking. I know this.  I’m ready to revamp my kitchen to an environment that promotes healthy eating and weight loss. I have to get rid of six foods next time. I’ll list them in my next blog. I don’t remember all of them I don’t think. Okay, I’ll try:

1. Trans fats

rn

2. Fried foods

rn

3. Soda pop

rn

4. regular pasta

rn

5. white bread

rn

6. High Fat Dairy

Okay, I had to go look up the last one. It’s the only one I remember.  Considering that I don’t eat to much dairy, I’m not to worried about it.  I’m not worried about to much except trans fat and pasta. I have never gone out of my way to avoid the trans fat and I love my pasta.  I can have whole wheat so it may not be so much a thing of going without but making healthier changes.  No one said this is going to be easy.
Weight loss is a lot about making the right choices.  In order to succeed, we have to make the choices that will help us reach our goal.  I’ve made the right choice to do it now I have to make the choices to make it happen.  I’m ready and this week can’t end none to soon for me.
