Better next month!

So it’s been a month that I’ve been trying to lose weight and well I lost 3 pounds this month.  Sounds like nothing I know.  I’ve been so stressed and upset with myself.  ”Why can’t I just keep this weight off and do what I did 10 years ago?”  So this next month, even though is full with chocolate and candy ( because of Valentines) I’m going to try harder.  I sometimes day-dream of wearing that dress I have in my closet I can’t fit into.  I dream of how good I would feel in that dress.  But that is 67 pounds away!!! Seems like an eternity!  I wish I had the money to go to the gym or go on a diet program.  The fact is that I don’t.  I know God provides. As long as my daughter is ok and the mortgage is getting paid, the rest is stuff I don’t need.  I can do this.  I can lose this weight.   I wish I felt that way everyday.  My poor husband has to see me cry and complain.  I just don’t feel right. I don’t feel good in my skin.  So what am I going to do about it?  I have to try harder. I have to understand that I have a daughter that is going to look up to me. That it’s going to take hard work and dedication. That it’s ok to have a Big Mac or chocolate once in a while.  So the month of February is going to be a better month.  I’m hoping for at least a 8 pound weight loss.

Tip of the Week: Try not to eat too late.  I know that when I first lost my weight, I didn’t eat after 6pm.  It was hard at first but then it got easier and it was just something that came naturally to me. If I was out I would order a tea or coffee.  That saved me so much money as well.  I’m not saying that 6pm is the best time.  Looking now and seeing that I’m married and have a kid, 6pm doesn’t work. So I’m aiming for 7pm.  It works.  The hard part is just starting.
