Finishing up January with a laugh!!!!

I found this cartoon, and now that I am computer savvy, wanted to post it. I thought it was funny.diet-scales1.jpg 

Havin’ a little fun!

I am always impressed with the blog’s that have photo’s or clip’s or music. Mine has been very bland to date, and I wanted to add a photo for tomorrow so I am practicing today. I was able to load a gorgeous pic of a sunflower( my fave) on my early entry. I am so excited to have figured it out on my own. See, you can teach an old dog new tricks! I probably should think about adding a photo, now that I know how. YIKES!I just went thru all my photo’s, and found a handful of me. None of which show the size of me. I guess I have been avoiding the camera for quite a while. So, I will have to be brave, and get some taken. I think it will be a good thing to have one day. For comparisons, maybe, maybe not.  To compare healthy, vs not healthy.  It starts now by loving and accepting my body today.  Having that ongoing fight with my image had to stop. We have unrealistic role models in the public eye, and we put way to much emphasis on size and not health. 

Day 24 and the last day of January

433076976_ede40c47b3_m1.jpgHow perfect to have my weigh in day of Feb 1st- I had set a mini goal to be under 200 lbs by Feb.1st, so we’ll see tomorrow.  My % yesterday were a lot different than the rest. My carbs were higher at 55% and my fats were really much lower at 16%. My protein stays consistent at 28%. I will post my averages on Sunday, but it was something I noticed this morning, and wanted to mention.  I am looking forward to tomorrow’s  weigh in, as I am quite certain I will have met my mini goal. I am going to plan on losing 10 LBS a month. That’s 2.5 a week, and I think it’s doable.  I will set my goals and “reward” tomorrow after weigh in. I really dont need anything right now. I have jean’s with stretch( regular waist band), so they are a little loose, but no need to replace them yet.  Maybe a piece of jewelry? My ring( I only wear one) is loose. I am noticing my hands are cold a lot more-  Not sure if that has anything to do with weight loss. Nice earrings. I think that will be my reward tomorrow.  I will have to think about a reward for Feb goals. What do you guys have in place for your next rewards?Have a great Day!
