Glad to see that you're writing in your diary again. You can do it!

Thanks! I seriously thought about giving it up after this weekend, but then I just thought "screw this, I can be honest about the beer and grease of this past weekend and move on and get back on track!"

Plus, my semi-new puppy got out of the front door and ran into the street this morning and I ran out of the house barefoot to chase him and I fell in the road on my knees. It doesn’t sound like that big of a deal, but it was like when a 4 year old is running and her feet get away from her and she falls on her knees first and then the palms of her hands and all four are bleeding. Well, I was that giant four year old in the road this morning. Anyway, pretty much my whole body hurts today, but hopefully I’ll be able to work out tonight.

DAY 8: 183.2 lbs

Wow, sounds like a rough couple of days, but hey, you're still losing! That's great! Keep your chin up girl!

I think learning to be honest, both with yourself and with a bunch of anonymous strangers here, is key to getting one's eating habits under control. So, your post was a great victory in the battle of the bulge!

Ok, I’ve totally been falling behind on my journal, but I have really been busy with trying to finish up this semester, get my best friend married, and plan my own wedding. I’m definitely going to try to do better, but I can’t make any promises until after this week. I have broken down my big goal down to smaller goals per week, with the “weigh in” day being Friday. The goal for last Friday was 182.2 and my actual weight was 181.2!! I was totally stoked! My goal for this Friday is 180.2. The bad news is that my elliptical machine is broken. My cleaning ladies decided to move it for some reason and the broke it’s axel. My favorite time to work out is REALLY late at night (like 2 a.m.), so this is posing a problem, but I’m working on it.

DAY 11: 181.2
