Tired Tuesday

Here it is Tuesday and yes, I am tired but I did get out of bed and got a half hour workout in. If I can do this, anyone can It sometimes takes an act of congress to get me up and out of bed especially once I have fallen asleep (still have major insomnia issues). I am still...STILL able to get a nap in before work. I think it is helping me post here because I feel like I'm being accountable for something. Oh and yes...my meal plan I made yesterday, I stuck to it! NO DEVIATIONS even though I wanted to but I thought it and I wasn't hungry so I just drank a few sips of water and went about my business. Today...this is what I have planned... Breakfast Oatmeal (haven't eaten yet and I'm not hungry but I'll eat this when I get up from my nap) Snack hardboiled egg Lunch Luna Bar and some apple snack baby carrots (I didn't eat the full bag yesterday maybe three) Dinner piece of chicken snack atkins snack bar Exercise 30 minutes on stationary bike Let me know how things are going for you! We can do this!!

Ok - here goes! I haven't been posting here at all. I think I don't want to take responsibilty for my actions. Reading your posts is motivating. I'll do my best to keep on track. I have many of the same issues you have. I am ADDICTED to food. It doesn't matter what kind. I want food. I really never feel hungry, but I find myself constantly eating. I shouldn't allow myself to go into a store by myself, because I buy Crap! I have a bag of jerky in my desk drawer at work, but right next to it is a bag of chex mix - what am I doing to myself????? I started off at 323lbs. I'm now go between 192-195. I WILL NOT get back to 200lbs! I WILL NOT GET THERE!!! I'm throwing out the bag of chex mix right now.....there done! NO more for me!!! I am going to make a plan for tomorrow and just start over for right now. I do have a friend coming over tonight to exercise (we try to do it 3 times a week) but you know it doesn't do much good when I'm eating like crap! I still have a good 20 lbs to lose, but my body is comfortable here. I am ok here too... a size 14 instead of 30/32- but I don't want to go back up! Ok... will post again tomorrow with my new plan and following the rules!!!
