I tell myself I am going to be serious about taking care of myself, and I do a great job for 1 week, or 2 weeks then something gets "in the way" and I stop helping myself. For MONTHS now I have been starting and stopping, starting and stopping different types of weight-loss things like exercise and diet changes.
Last week I spent $40 on some protein shakes, and I gained 5 pounds!! I am all swollen, and think there is something in the product I am taking that is not agree'n with me. I follow the directions and find they suppress my appetite very well, but this swollen stuff has got to go! I did the same thing on the nutrisystem diet too! I gained 10 pounds in 2 weeks and within a week of not doing it I dropped the 10 pounds right away.
Anyway I found this really neat ticker that may help me keep track of what I am trying to do. It has been frustrating to me to keep starting plans and then stopping them and getting no where. I am so over it. I will continue to exercise but as for my diet, I suppose I will just have to keep an eye out on it and see how my body responds. I know it does well with low-carb, so I guess I will just have to try that. Sorry for the rant, my husband has been away for 2 and a half weeks now and we haven't been able to communicate at all during this time, so I have a lot of "conversation build up"!
So off to start yet another try on the weight loss game! Failure is when you stop trying, and I am not ready to stop trying.

You can do it, Teri! I try to stay away from diets that are so extreme that I cheat on them all the time. I love Denise Austens as you get treats, you eat normal, you just eat less calories. :)
