Amber Alert: Gone MIA

So,

I've gone MIA for a lil while. That tends to happen when you get off the weight loss bandwagon. A lot has happened in my life that have caused food rage (similar to road rage). Nonetheless, I have checked myself and am back on the program. Hold the phone, not back directly on Medifast, but back to my calorie counting and trying to get in some exercise. I have tried Curves, walking, dancing, as well as Zumba...and just trying to figure out which one I like the most. Well, while I do that...here is my latest FastSecret Post:

Weekend...need I say more? lol. But the weekend was really up and down....getting back in the groove of dieting takes more than just exercise and calorie counting. It takes a self check and maybe even a self snatch. You know what that is? Its the think where you yank yourself and tell yourself to pull it together..."remember those smaller size pants...remember you wanting to be smaller by X date....then GET IT TOGETHER!" I've had to do that to myself a million times now. I always said I would never quit....well,

Happy Monday and have a great week od eating...I know I will!

Kicking myself in the rear!

So I let myself go. Had a rude awakening as my breathing has gone bad and my knees hurt. Why? All the weight stressing my body out. Had to check myself again, and needless to say I am checked. Gathered my foods for today and am happy with them. I have to defeat this thing. Who knew losing weight would be so difficult. Its not difficult to lose...I mean the process is simple: take in less than you burn....the difficult part is the actual TAKING IN. With family, holidays, and mere poor will power I can take in a lot baby, I mean more than an elephant I believe. Somehow with all the things going on I have to find the will power within me to say NO NO not anymore...Food I will not be your foot stool. I see women with beautiful bodies and I tear up knowing that was SOOOO where I wanted to be...like SOON. Ah well, no need to dawn on that....just have to kick myself back in to gear and remember the reasons I want to lose weight. Between the knee pain and the lack of breath from walking down the hall this morning at work...I think my list just about does the motivation thing pretty well.
Cheers to a great START of a week!

-Happy Eating!

Draggin myself outta this weekend and food coma

So, back on Medifast as of yesterday. Weekend got me yet again. One of these weekends imma wint he fight. But had a talk with the hubby and we are back on the diet strong. Trying to stay below 1500 calories and bring that darn scale back down to earth. Its always rough to step on the scale praying the scale is stupid and wont realize you have gained but yet it does....then its like a reality check is needed. You want to quit but you can't. So you have to either check yourself and realize what losing weigh means to you (pull out your list you should have already created about the reasons you want to lose weight) or QUIT....and for me QUITTING is just not an option....Sorry I have too much to lose weight for. I needed a legal pad for my list. So,
cheers to a new week!

-Happy Eating!

-Klove out!

Its me.... again!

Well weekends do me in everytime. Back on the horse this monday...been dealing with a little stress that has my life upside down, but committed to this journey nonetheless, and Medifast foods are helping me along the way even when I happen to eat outside of the program. The point is that I am severly under my BMR and should still be losing weight. Heres to an awesome week and new numbers on the scale by next weigh in. Will FINALLY take a picture of my Portebella Salad which I am having for dinner. That will put me around 1550 calories for today. Hopefully I can get some exercise in to help counteract my stress.

All I can call this blog is "Crap"!

Well, sad to say, yesterday was a bust. Gotta now get back into the fat burning mode. Good news, it wasn't the picnic at my job that I messed up with, bad news, it was just me. lol. Ate too much of a good thing or 2 and ended up being wayyyy over my carbs and calories and fat and anything else on the list. So starting back over next day. Good news is the scale barely moved so the impact of the eating was not SO bad, but I can only imagine that it would have been if I kept eating that way today. So, I am nipping that in the bud and just had my medifast pancakes with the sugar free syrup and 2 string cheeses to keep me full. Hate to have to start getting in Ketosis all over again, but it will not be as big of a climb as I have previously had to do...any way. ITS FRIDAY! and the biggest hurdle is always the weekend....so to all my medifasters and dieters out there...HAPPY EATING (...and happy weekend)!!!

-Klove Out!
