Just trying out to see if this works!!

It's been a long time since I have blogged anything here, or for that matter anywhere.  My last post was a negative post about my weight gain and how my struggles with trying to lose more weight was continuing.  Not a lot has changed since then.  I had taken the summer and basically just let things happen as they happened.  I decided that just allowing myself the chance to live with out the program, was an opportunity to see how things would go.  WELL.............over all I handled it pretty wellI think.  I had actually gained 11 pounds in about 3 months.  I went back to the program in September and lost 13 lbs.


So since then I have been up and down, and it seems I can't break there 275 lb mark.  I had achieved my lowest weight of 273.4, but can't crack that limit.  I have tried and struggled.  Lana has said, taking a break and going back is a hard thing to do.  Well, I know that now!!!!!!!  I should have listened....lol.  No, I am happy I did what I did, and tried the rest period.  It really showed me that if I do spring up, I can use the program to get back on track.  I had a long talk with Lana today, and I think I am ready to start taking this serious again.  It was Lana that suggested that the blog be restored.  It seemed that as long as I was making myself accountable, I was able to be successful.  So, here I am.......

Thanks for checking in.  Send me a note anytime you want, comments are welcome.  Lana is going to do some posting here as well, and I am hoping she will encourage followers to continue and find some sort of support in what I am doing.  This is a great program, and Lana is next to a goddess............well, at least someone who I admire and respect to the max!!!!  Any of her talks with me have always been positive and inspiring.  I hope she can help others as much as the people who have her as a mentor now.

By the way the pic is from November 19th ............

I am back.....

Well, I am thinking about coming bcd, but I don't know if there ia nyone left to follow me.  I had given up on this for some time, but I am thinking now I need to start again.  I am still done some 60 lbs and feeling good, but I need to reconnect with the weight loss.  I think that I need this blog to help me with the continuation.

So, if you are reading this,, I would like you to email me and tell me your following me again.  I want to have people to be accountable to.  I promise to update regularly, and add more photos etc.

Please tell me what you think daveforster@sasktel.net

Past week

I weighed in and the results were not the best.  I gained 3 lbw, but lost 2 inch's again.  I have been away a lot in the past 14 days, and the trip to Toronto was tough.  I survived on protein bars which are a restricted food, and I am allowed 1 a day.  I think I had 4 a day.  As well,once again the arranged meals were not the best.  It can be really frustrating.  I did my best to manage my way through it.  The bad food and no exercise has made it's mark.  I am still determined to be 100 lb lighter by August 28th.  I just need to jump start this process again.

W have a detoxing kit we just piked up.  It is something that the plan has introduced.  It is to help flush out the system of the bad things hanging out in your body.  We started the detox yesterday, and it takes 14 days to complete.  Results vary, and some people have lost a lot of weight.  Other people have indicated they have a new fresh start.  I hope for both!!

Summer is coming,and so is more time to move around.  I am hoping, detoxing and golf will get my muffin top reduced, and the last 25-30 lbw out of it's hiding place.

The day before

Weigh in day is tomorrow after 2 weeks.  I know it is not going to be very good.  I have been away to much once again, and have just not been applying myself at all.  I have been conscious of my food choices, but have not really cared that much.  I really need to get the activity level higher, and just be tighter with the food.  I haven't blown it really bad, but I have not been strict either.

I am blotted and feeling a bit "large", if I can say that.  I have been feeling like that for a few weeks.  I am not sure why.  I think it might be a water retention thing.  I see it in my feet and my belly.  And I am not sure what to do about it.  I have been coasting at this the last 2 months.  I need to get active, so I can get these last 30 lbs off.  I am now starting to worry about what will happen after the program.  It scares me more now, since this has started to get boring.  The boring is the no real change to the food.  Salads, veggies and protein.  That's my every day.  Chocolate drink in the morning, and a snack at night.  I guess if I can hit maintenance in 15 more lbw.  Things will get better.  I just need to hang in there and not get out of control.  Come on golfing.......

A long week.........

This has been such a long week.  I was on the road for 2 days to Yorkton, and made some absolutely horrible food choices.  I went out for meals with people w=who had favourite restaurants, and they were 3 buffets.  Not a bad choice if there was a lot of salad.  But 3 buffets, and 3 Chinese food feeds.  2 of the 3 had 0 for salad and nothing for a guy wanting veggies.  The other was pretty good, with the veggies.  However, most of the veggies were cooked.........

Off to Toronto Friday to Sunday night.  Another weekend of meetings.  Nice touch this time, is restaurant meals where I get to order what I want.  Weigh in is next Thursday.  I bet it's not that good.........
