I've been thinking about how I got here in the first place. I mean to this size, Size 18. Along time ago I would have thought 150lbs was overweight, and now I can't wait to see that again. I guess because of allot of things in my life at the time, (divorce, job loss, trying to raise kids, stress,) I started gaining weight ever so slowly. Just a tiny bit at a time. Maybe like 1/2 - 1 lb every month or two. Now look at me, way way way over 200lbs. I remember crying when I couldn't fit in size 14 anymore, and now I think I might cry when I fit back in them.
I am just gonna be honest with you.... I love the way I feel by cutting out all the junk food and sugar from my life, but I don't know if I can do it for ever. I mean, I told myself that once I get down to a good weight I would take 1 day a week to goof off and eat whatever I want. But now I'm not sure that's a good idea. I think it might lead to just more and more bad eating. Well one thing at a time..............
Still 2 lbs down from the other day Whoop Whoop!!
Thanks for listening...Please leave your comments.
My thought for the day: A few people keep saying how proud of me they are, and no one is more proud of me than me. Don't be surprised if you actually surprise yourself.
Keep on BFC ' n :-)

Some tips if you are having trouble
- First make sure that you are staying under the 15/6. 15 sugars and 6 servings of carbs for the whole day. Thats no more than 5 sugars and 2 servings of carbs per meal.
- Track all of your sugar/carbs. Add everything from your meal together and count them that way.
- Try to stop eating whole grain carbs after 3pm.
- Make sure you drink lots of water.
- Count everything that you put into your mouth. Even sauces - everything , check labels.
- Make sure that you don't eat any artificial sugars. Check labels, if it says sugar free - look in the ingredients, look for....sucralose, aspartame, saccharine in the ingredients. Those are BAD!
- Going #2 is a big problem when a lot of people start the BFC. I have solved that problem with Clear Benefiber in my morning coffee and a scoop of Super Seed w/water in the afternoon. (you can buy the super seed on Amazon.com it is the cheapest).
- Choose your carbs wisely. Try to pick the carbs that will give you the lowest count of carbs, sugar and calories and the most fiber.
I hope this helps.

I identify with you on in so many ways. I weigh about 200 and also remember how horrified I was when I was up to 150...and yes...I would probably cry if I could get back to 150.
ReplyDeleteIt took me almost 30 years to achieve my current weight (I am down 12 pounds since BFC) so I try to be patient about losing them.
