So I did a week of phase 1 on SB, and I lost 6lbs, gave up, and gained it all back. Right now I’m just down, not sure how to get back to succeeding, and blah. I had a 40 min workout today, and am just struggling to find how I need to deal with this. Back to my diet journal.

Let’s be honest. I’ve been calorie counting since Sept. of last year, and I go on and off plan, on and off exercising, and really, I have made virtually no progress in the past 9 months. Even worse, for the last few weeks, about 75% of my calories are comming from breads, pastas, etc. I’m not going to let myself go insane, by trying the same method over and over again. This is my new project: South Beach. I just bought The South Beach Diet, Supercharged, and I’m very excited to commit to the food and exercise phases. There are so many recipes on 3FC and in the book, and it will be fun spending time planning meals, my day, and treating this like a fun project, and not as a drag. There isn’t much to say. I’m ready for this change. I’m starting phase one on Saturday. Wish me luck!
Love,
Me

Hi there me, and anyone who is reading this. Well, I went on vacation and gained back 6 lbs. I’m not really upset: I’m just treating this as a bump in the road, which motivates me to get back on track. I want to do this, and many other things, for me. I want this to be my major summer project. I want to wake up every day inspired and excited to have another successful day. I’m going to have some eggbeaters for breakfast, wait an hour, workout, and then plan the rest of my day. One day at a time. Good luck me!

I’m old! Woo! It’s a new year, and a different me. I deserve to be happier, and I’m going to make sure of that this time around. I’m FINALLY done with finals tomorrow, and then I get to plan my summer. I’m only taking summer school this summer - no job - so I only have class 3 days a week. I’m sure with careful planning, I can make a big dent in my overall goals by the time I get back to school in the fall, and wow everyone when I get back. Love you, me!

Yesterday I swore that I would completely stick to plan, and I did!!!! I’ve just been so snacky and grumpy lately, but the only way to get out of it is just to change, and not wait for inspiration to come. I guess I’m making my own inspiration! I did finish my workout yesterday, totaling 60 mins, and I just got in 30 mins this morning too! Jus takin’ it day by day, and if I succeed each day, time will pass, and I’ll be svelte (I hope I hope I hope!)

Happy Tax Day everyone! I did mine a few weeks ago, but last year I did them the day of — it wasn’t pretty! So I’ve been doing okay lately - I got up this morning and exercised a bit, only 20 mins. I’m going to do another 40 mins this afternoon after class, and then I can move my exercise ticker! The scale has been going up and down the same 7 lbs for a while now, but I really am determined to get into the 160s by the end of May, to look great in my friend’s wedding. I’ve made an eating/exercise plan today, and my mantra has been, “You WILL stick to the plan today”. I just need to keep telling myself: do you really want that italian dish, or do you want to look incredile this summer? I’ll pick the latter, thank you very much.
