July, 12, 2011 Diet Blog

So- down another half a pound. Its chugging along but at least its in the right direction. I've stuck consistently to the two fruits a day- cutting one in half for breakfast and 3pm snack, 100 g of lean beef, chicken, turkey or whitefish plus two cups of vegetables or green salad. Mostly I stick to lettuce, cucumbers and cooked onions with the meat as dressing. Its not bad. The list has very few to choose from. I will list them for anyone who wants to try this diet, but be forewarned- its hard, strict and exhausting. Portion control is better for me. It doesn't seem like the weight is falling off here let me tell you- although with this amount of calories and this much discipline, it should be. I don't claim to understand. My sister in law seems to think that I'm just going to wake up one morning ten pounds lighter out of the blue. Sadly, I',m a little more reality stricken than that as you know. I'm just grateful that the scale is going the right way at last...though, I do fantasy dream of waking up lighter- never worrying about what food I eat and having a great body...lol. But...that's me, the dreamer...the reality stricken dreamer...which is why I write.
The Royal Caribbean book tour is a go. I cannot wait! Its so exciting! I hope that everything goes as smoothly as the last time and that I sell out my books! If you are inclined towards prayer, please pray for me. See you next blog!
