Today is Thursday. I've had a great week so far. I'm down 6 pounds since Sunday. I'm at 253 but that is in the early morning with no clothes on right after going to the bathroom. I have to be down to 249.2 by February 6th so I don't lose my 35 dollars I put into my Dietbet. So I need to be at 248 or so because I am terrified of there being some crazy fluctuation and I will lose just because the scale says 249.3 or something.
And I just ate 4 pieces of toast with butter plus a small bowl of cereal with a banana. I also ate pumpkin seeds and some candy. Ugh! Why?
I am not giving up. I just have to eat very little for the rest of the day. I did work out for an hour and a half this morning so I think it might be okay.

Ressurrected
I'm not going to apologize for being gone for um years. That is just me. I am very unorganized and undisciplined normally. So even though I want to do this I can't make it happen.
I have had some success with weight loss. I got up to 272 pounds in March of 2016. It was becoming difficult to do everyday things like tying my shoes and personal hygiene things. So I decided to do something about it and I was eating right and counting calories. I was counting my steps with an app on my phone so I was moving more.
I lost around 20 pounds and then I got a gym membership.I also got a Fitbit. I was going to the gym 5 or 6 days a week. I was even getting up at 330 in the morning to go work out so I wouldn't have to take time away from my kids in the evening.
I got down to 230 pounds in August 2016 and then it all went downhill. I stopped being able to say no to food and I stopped wanting to work out.
So now here I am in January 2017 having gained 30 pounds back. I have been trying some. I am still going to the gym 1 or 2 days a week. Last week I had 2 days where I ate the right things. But I still gained weight.
Today I have started over at 259 pounds. I actually joined a Dietbet almost 2 weeks ago and have yet to get on track so that is motivating me too.
Now that I have found this blog again I want to post everyday with how I'm doing and feeling. I'm not promising anything of course. So far today I am feeling really good except I'm hungry. I seem to only be able to do this in extremes. Either I have full control and I don't eat enough all day or I am out of control and eat everything in sight. I have eaten fried mushrooms with butter and I am going to make some coffee to keep me going throughout the afternoon. I have Zumba tonight at the gym. They all expect me there now which is good because it keep me coming even when I just want to crawl in a hole an hibernate.
The true test will come tonight when I get home from Zumba and want to eat everything.
