sept.23/10

sept.23/10- ten days and only one lb this time, which is what i set out to do, one lb every ten days but i have a feeling things are slowing down. i've been looking for stuff to snack on at night and i think that's a bad thing.not that there are a lot of calories in pretzels, it's just not a good habit.it's so hard though, not to snack while watching tv. time to get the knitting out. maybe then i can keep my hands busy. mittens and dishclothes for everyone for christmas!!! maybe i'll make one dishcloth for each lb lost, that would be cool. i wonder if knitting counts as exercise. oh well, i'll have skinny hands at least. so, here's to another ten days.

sept.13/10-- ten more days, another 3 lbs gone, woohoo! now that it's cooling off i'm starting to get back on the treadmill. i think from now on it's going to get harder so i'll really need to do a little more than just cut back on my snacking. the good thing is, if i don't buy the potato chips then i can't eat them. who knew it could be that simple.i must say though, buying food that's better for you is all well and good but man, it's way more expensive. i guess that's why it makes it easier to lose weight because you can't afford to buy as much.so, anyway, here's to another ten days and hopefully another lb gone

sept 5/10

i'm two days late because of hurricane earl, i knew he was coming so i was busy getting ready then i had no power for 27 hours. not good for dieting because you want to eat all the stuff in the fridge in case it spoils !! plus, there's not much else to do. anyway, 2 more lbs gone in the last ten days for a total of eight lbs so far. not bad considering i didn't do much walking last week, too, too hot out for that so i think i did ok. going out for supper tonight and  i'm hoping to find something good that's not deep fried and doesn't come with fries. off i go, eight more days, one more pound
