July 11, 2011 Diet Blog

Well, I fought that same two pounds for over a week. It was upsetting to say the least. Still, I remained steadfast even though party after party, BBQ after BBQ, snack after snack and my husbands jumping ship occurred all around me. I'm happy to report that the scale went down one half pound below the 2 pound issue yesterday and another half pound today. Whew!
I will mention that weighing in every day has this consequence for me...the number seems to set my mood no matter how hard I try not to let it.
The funny part is- at the 30 day mark, which is one day before the book signing cruise it would say 13 pounds down, and I would be enraptured with happiness. Meanwhile, instead of the number on the scale dictating how I feel, I would actually be feeling the effects of dieting; feeling better about myself and that type of thing. Still, a promise is a promise. I said I'd give it 30 days and so I will. The goal is set, the plan in rotation. At least the scale is moving in the right direction again. I'm very thankful for that.
I will add a factoid from my sister in law- again, not something I will do but it may work for you. (Check out First Magazine July and August) She says that cayan pepper taken as directed in the magazine acts as a fat burner. She actually drinks it in water but there are supplements according to her magazine. Read about it first, like I said its not for me. I believe that I need something I can stick to for a lifetime. For me- its a lifetime battle.... see you next blog! ;-)
