Melissa7802's Journal, 03 March 2014

Well, since moving to phase 2, the weight is not really coming off. But then again, I had a bad couple of days last weekend and it took all last week to correct that. So, as of yesterday I have been strictly following phase 2 and watching and counting everything I am eating...and drinking more water and of course back to doing my Zumba.

I have 9 weeks till Florida and I would like to be at 220 when I go... but sometimes, it just doesn't seem so easy! I have decided that once I hit 220, I am going to start training for a 5k race... I really want to tackle running and actually making it to the end! I don't need to come in first... I am happy coming in dead last... just making it to the end will be the biggest accomplishment for me.

I keep trying to envision myself skinny and I am seriously having a hard time... the last picture I have weighing my goal of 150 was when I was 15... that was 20 years ago!!! But I am glad because I am at my lowest weight in a year...

I am rambling a lot lately... I feel like I have so much that I need to share, but no one to really share it with... Joe doesn't want to hear about it that much and he all says is that he wants me to get skinny... which is a good change from him trying to sabotage my diet out of fear of losing me! I wish there was like a support system around me... I feel like the only person I can count on is myself and I don't like that...

I have definitely found a new love for salad... I have been putting all kinds of stuff in it.. and it the taste really has grown on me... I do have to say that with all my healthy eating, the cravings for the junk food has pretty much worn off.. I don't even miss my morning ritualistic bagel with cream cheese that I have had daily for the past 5-6 years and I thought that was going to be tough to walk away from! I have also been trying some of the south beach recipes and one of my favorite its mini vegetable quiche... made with egg substitute.. which to be completely honest, i was nervous to try.. I thought that it would taste awful, but it really isn't so bad! I am considering starting to eat fish again... but I will need my mom to make it for me... I hate the way Joe makes it and well, I can't cook fish if my life depended on it!

What kinds of fish do you like ??? You can always learn to cook new things. I have been trying new things as well and have never really cooked fish much in the past. I made some broiled cod recently and it was AMAZING and it wasnt hard to cook at all.

As I read this journal I could pick out a plus that you have that I never had which is a skinny picture...ever. I have never seen myself thin. Also I thought as I read this about not liking that the only person you can count on is you. I think that is a plus also not having to rely on others is a strength in my eyes. Of coarse we all want to be supported but in the end it is the work you put in that creates the result. You do have support here and I hope you believe in you. Have a great day.
