Tempted to cheat

I am so wanting to just get skinny and get it over with... I'm thinking of trying the lemonade cleanse. I'm vegetarian so the amount of calories I eat are usually 160 per meal so I don't see the weight coming back once I lose it on the lemonade fast. I'll be munching fresh fruit and veggies for food during the fast to keep nutrients in my body.. just none of my soy meat replacements since those cals are much higher... yes, I'm losing inches but I weighed myself today and almost cried... 160... WOW! almost 30 pounds heavier than I've ever been in my LIFE! That's depressing... I'll let you know what happens... see you in a week for the weigh-in!

End Of Week 1

It's the end of the first week in my journey and I already see a difference in my gut! I'm so freaking excited about this and now it doesn't seem so impossible to get back into the shape I was only 9 months ago. I haven't been ACTUALLY going out to run but I use my wii fit, take the stairs and work instead of the elevator, I walk more briskly when going to my car as I'm leaving work and walking more briskly when going in to work, even though I really don't want to be there. I've also been counting calories. Not like a calorie counting nut, but I have been watching them. Being on a vegetarian diet helps a lot too. When I get hungry I have a cup of coffee with 3 teaspoons of organic unbleached sugar (15 cals) the coffee has 0-4 cals. It usually helps me when my daily intake is 400 calories less so that I can fill the rest with coffee or water and an occasional apple or banana if the coffee starts to upset my stomach because of drinking way too much of it without getting nutrients from food. Here is my big unveiling, you might not see a difference, but I do!

Minor Set back...

Ok so I was drained to get up this morning to run, apparently I've only burned like 4 cals today and I'm under my goal intake by 420 so I guess that's good. Lots of protein today at least sooo until tomorrow...

Day 1 Week 1

Today at 6am I will be doing my first 2 mile run look at how late I'm up! Not a good start but ok, maybe I'm sort of excited that I'm getting motivated enough to do something about this horrid weight I've gained over the past 6 to 8 months I believe?

WEEK 1 SNAPSHOTS

100 CALORIES of organic soy yogurt

WEIGHT LOSS GOAL FOR THE WEEK

I am going to be realistic about this, I won't lose a POUND this week but if I do, oh goddesses of skinny, let it be 2 lbs...??? PSH, I'd be happy if I even lost .5 lbs. REALLY!!



Until next week...
