2 Years Ago…
So I’ve been kind of down since yesterday. We are doing a series called “Stress Less” at church. Yesterday one of the points mentioned was if you have trouble with alcohol or gambling then you should just stay away from bars or casinos (not sure if he specifically mentioned gambling but it’s the same concept).…
The Same Place – Again
I just read a blog post I wrote in December of 2008. It was about Happiness. I was actually surprised that I had written this. Why? Because lately I have been really trying to figure out what is wrong with being happy? Now I know that sounds like a strange question. And it is. But…
What’s It Gonna Take
So, now it is October 27, 2023. I currently weigh 375.2 pounds. Obviously I am going in the wrong direction. Horribly wrong direction. I still haven’t figured out my “why”, I am eating even worse than before. I started Weight Watchers but barely log any of my food because it shows me how many points…
To Goal or Not to Goal – That is the Question
Are you the kind of person who sets a goal and then does everything you can to achieve it? Are you the kind of person who sets a goal and then does the absolute opposite to sabotage the goal? I am 55 years old and my entire life have found to be the second type…
Another Month, Another Same ol Same ol
In December I wrote about being in a plateau. A holding pattern if you will. Finding myself doing the same things over that I have done in the past. Well, 2 months have passed and I am still in the 330’s. I was sooo close last week, 330.4. Tomorrow is weigh in day and today…
Outside Vs. Inside – The Lies We Feel
This weight loss journey has not been easy. I am at the point where I feared I would get. I am “letting” myself have a cookie here, or a sandwich there. “But it’s just one time” I tell myself. Other’s tell me “you need to allow yourself to cheat every once in awhile”. I have…
6 Months – 24 Weeks
Today marks 24 weeks since I started Optavia. I fought tooth and nail for over a year with every excuse I could come up with to not do this program. Finally I decided to give it a month. My coach gave me money towards my first box and Optavia was having a special so I…
Irrational Thoughts of a Teen
When I look at old home movies and pictures of when I was 2 or 3 years old I am astounded as to how much bigger my legs were then my cousins of the same age. From that early age I just knew I was fat. Even though I didn’t know the concept until I…
14 Weeks and Going Strong
I hit the 14 week mark today on Optavia. I have successfully lost 60.0 lbs. 60 lbs? I am extremely happy with this weight loss. There are days I hate the products and all I want to do is eat some horrible food that is not helpful. Most days I can eat the meals and…
6 Weeks and Counting
Optavia. A name of a program that I have been fighting doing for over a year. I tasted the food and it was awful. I wasn’t going to pay almost $400/month for a product that I probably hated. 5 and 1 plan consists of eating 5 of Optavia’s “fuelings” and 1 “lean and green” meal…
