Getting ready for a cruise -

Well, I am getting ready to go on a cruise next week.  I am already worried about how much weight I will gain in the next week.  Everyone knows that cruises are all about the 24 hour food buffets.  i am also worried about how much walking I will be doing.  Is it crazy that I think about these things?  This is was overweight people think about.  The world is not completely open to someone who carries an extra couple hundred pounds.  The mind is always going on thinking about weight, size of chairs etc...  I am working on a day where these are not thoughts and issues of mine, but I am sure it will be a long time before that happens.  Wish me luck on the cruise.  I will do my best, but can't help but think about the desserts that I will have to make sure I portion control.

Still doin' it - Stay Strong

This is not an easy thing.  I am still "dieting" and trying my best to stay "on the right track".  I find myself "quoting" allot.  I don't know why, it just makes me feel better.  I guess it is better than food making me feel better.  I am trying to make a conscious effort to choose the right thing.  That in itself is hard.  It is so much easier to go out and grab a burger than it is to stay home and cook.  But what I keep saying to myself is this, here come the quotes "fast food does not taste good, a home cooked meal is much better tasting".  When I tell myself that (making a effort to do so and trusting myself) I believe myself and believing in yourself seems like a great first step when trying to accomplish anything.  So let's start by believing in ourselves and telling ourselves the truth!  Stay strong, we can do this!

It's a tough decision

Being overweight is NOT fun!  I have been having a difficult past week.  I have decided to try Herbalife and am having two shakes a day.  I will let you know how it goes.
