It's a Miracle

Yep I am still working at it.  That in its self is a miracle. Have lost between 15 and 20 pounds so far. Depending on what time of the day I weigh and what I am wearing at the time.  (Which is usually nothing.  Cant blame it on the clothes that way). It has definitely not been easy.  I have had several "down" days. Days that I totally lost control and so wanted to quit.  Missing my comfort foods has been the hardest part.  You know the Cheesy Potato Soup,  Chicken and Noodles over mashed potatoes, Chili with cheese over macaroni.   But.... I have found new foods that I am addicted to.  Like fish!  I never really liked fish that much.  Now I cant wait until I get it again.  Some things that have helped me not totally go back to old eating habits are: I have chocolate everyday.  Sometimes in a Fiber One bar.  Sometimes 2 or 3 little dark chocolate squares or a fun size bag of M & M's. I also have one cheat day every week. Which I usually dont get too carried away on but do treat myself to stuff that is not on my regular diet. Like maybe just a small order of McD'S fries instead of a large one with a double cheeseburger.  Oh and I still am going to see Mr. Gym.  Yep, everyday. Well I did miss a few when I was traveling but that is it.  It is still a boring relationship but my goal is to do a 5K with my son in October and finish it in less that an hour.  So, right now that is what is keeping me going.
