I can’t seem to make up my mind how I want to diet, but at least I am sure that I am dieting. :)  In just the last 2 weeks tried the profast for about a week and lost 9lbs, then I ate actual food and cake on my birthday and gained about 4-5lbs back.  Then I decided that practically starving was not good so I decided the 100 calories 5-6 times a day would do it for me.  Then gradually over the week I have changed that to less that 1000 calories a day, eating healthy food several times a day.  I actually had a 6in sub from Subway today and felt kinda guilty.

 My problem is that I want to lose weight quickly and want results NOW!!!  I check the scale way to often  and get upset when I see it stay the same or go up .5lb.  I am back to 9lbs lost, but I was there last week. 

 So here’s to me trying to stick with something and stop changing my mind on a daily basis!

I can’t seem to stop weighing myself and then getting frustrated for not losing enough!  I am being totally unrealisitc and I know it!  I step on the scale every morning and at first all was well I would lose between 1-2 lbs every day.  It was great for a week.  I was eating next to nothing, except meal replacements and vitamins, but I was seeing results.  Then I decided that I really didn’t need meal replacements if I just keep my food to around 100 calories 5 times a day.  My dinner meal is more because I am having lean meat with a salad, but it is still less that 300 calories.  In total I am eating less that 1000 calories a day and for the past few days my scale has not moved.  I know it could be a variety of things and that I need to stay off the scale, but I can’t seem to help myself.  Maybe I will just try cutting back…say 2-3 times a week.  I guess I will see how that works out.

Ok, my birthday was Wed and I did really well.  I am in the first stages of my diet and am really watching what I eat and not eating much at all.  I decided since it was my birthday that I would go ahead and have a slice of birthday cake…only 1.  What was not eaten was going to work with me so that it would be out of the way and not a temptation.  Well, I did good…until today.  There was still chocolate cake sitting by my desk that had not been eaten.  It called my name, I put head phones on.  I walked by and turned my head.  It looked so pitiful and lonley sitting by itself this after noon that I decided I had to help my collegues put it out of its misery.  I caved and had a  2nd slice of delightfully sinful chocolate birthday cake.  It was delicious, but I know I shouldn’t have.  At least we have successfully removed the temptation, and I will start with a clean slate tomorrow.
