I have been overweight all my life. I have been on a lot of diets. A lot. I have even had a vertical banded gastroplasty. Nothing seems to work. I watch all these shows about overweight people who have "finally hit the bottom". I have never "finally hit the bottom". I don't know what the bottom is. What I do know is, I am ready to lose weight. I am ready for a new beginning in 2010.
On Monday, January 4th, I started watching what I eat. I have been doing portion control. I have been writing down everything that I am eatting and drinking. I have been using Spark People.com for that. I already keep a journal, but I don't like to write. So I am going to try blogging instead of writing.
So far I am down 5 pounds. No, it's not water weight. I drink a lot of water. I don't drink sodas. I do drink the generic of Crystal Light. I really like those. The grape, raspberry ice, and peach tea are my favorite. I have worked out twice this week. I have Bollywood and belly dance dvds I am using.
Right now I am hungry or at least I think I am hungry. I am trying to get my mind off of food, but it is not working. It is a struggle.
I am going to stop for now. Good night.
