Hope Spring Eternal

Good morning!

WEIGHT: 319.6 lbs           TOTAL: -3.4

Another half pound off, seems like I'm on a roll, huh? I wonder if I hadn't had that extra piece of chicken and blackberry cream pie last night if it would have been more. Tonight I'm going to plan out my meal. I've been wanting to do this but it's been extremely hard to think about food, because I DON'T FEEL HUNGRY! When hunger does set in, I have about a 20 minute window before I feel famished. I ate last night at about 6:30. When I went to bed at 10:30, I was still overly full.

I even woke up full, so I took Ham Bone, our 45 mile an hour couch potato, for a short walk. I wanted to go longer, but he's still being trained to walk on the leash and my shoulder felt like it was coming out of the socket. His previous owners had taken him to obedience school, but I'm sure he failed that part! She a a toothpick of a woman too! I'm surprised he didn't hurt her!

I want to express the differences I feel since I started The Carbohydrate Addict's Diet. Along with not feeling hungry between meals, I sleep better, feel more refreshed when I wake up, and have more energy during the day. I think because I'm mostly a sedentary minded person, I almost have a nervous energy. The only way to change that is change my thought process.

I need to find something to do with myself to burn off the energy, without doing more damage to my knees and back until I've lost more weight. My plan is to find a job this week, so I can afford a Y.M.C.A membership. I love to swim, and it takes the stress off of my back. I think until then I might start taking some trips down to the beach. It's the end of the season, so hopefully I can find a job before it gets too cold!

I'm going to give it a few weeks until I try to quit smoking again. I am no longer Newport's bitch. I switched to American Spirit, a natural cigarette with out all the extras. The first couple of days I was edgy, but then I was fine. It's a comparable tasting cigarette, and I seem to be smoking less. It's hard to tell exactly how much because my husband takes a couple out of my pack, which is fine.

Since I've changed that, I cough less, and I'm not as irritable. Also, I feel relatively satisfied after I've smoked one. I can see myself giving these up and being successful.

I will post my consumption tonight and be back in the morning, for a new stat update! I've been thinking about doing Youtube updates since I could only find one and she obviously gave up.

HUGGZZ
