80 DAYS TO NEW YEARS! (#37)

Feeling The Blues
I love everything about food—eating it, preparing it, writing about it and creating it! Period!
 
I bet I’m not the only one.
 
While this hobby can get expensive, it also can be a challenge to your health. People like me, who are prone to gaining weight easily, should be watching everything that goes in their mouths. Like I often say, I can gain weight just by seeing food—I really don’t need to eat it.


 It’s now been five days since I started my diet—and I’m miserable. While following a specified diet makes it a bit easier, I still miss my food.

​The loss of a few pounds in five days has not encouraged me as we all know that the first few pounds are nothing but water weight. It will be a long time before the first pound of real fat will melt.
Patience is the key—sadly, it’s not really my strongest characteristic.
 
Many people say that weighing yourself daily does not have a good effect as weight often fluctuates—many variables, not necessarily fat, influence weight. Aside from the theory, my scale calls my name every morning. At times, when the hand doesn’t go in the right direction, it will yell at me. The scale for me is a tool to remind me that dieting is not an overnight sensation—it is more of a long process that will eventually turn into a lifestyle.

Yuck!

I know how you feel. Having dental surgery which started last October leaving me with only soup without vegetables just broth, I thought I would die. Seeing everyone else eating and just smelling of foods I loved sometimes left me wanting to eat even more. The only positive side was It was too painfull to eat. So the weight slowly came off. I learned to drink water instead of diet soda and worked my way up to a gallon a day. Now that the surgery is completed I no longer want the same portions I used to and the water keeps me plenty hydrated. So the one thing I did learn is just a few changes in what used to be my regular diet keeps the weight down and my spirits high. So don't give up. I never thought I would see a size 12 again and I plan to keep it that way. If anyone can do it you can. You are a very strong woman and when you put your mind to it you can do anything.
