Day 6


Wow I cant believe it has been 6 days since my last diet soda or frozen dinner. And I am still alive!! Ok so my sodium levels are most likely still off the charts, but I have more energy overall, and I am not taking my afternoon naps anymore. Although I have to say, I wish I could temporarily gain all my weight back...(say what???) It is so cold here, I need the extra padding!! Mother Nature, if you happen to be reading this journal...Please bring back spring. I want to go outside and play again. The 6 mile bike and hike trail is calling my name. Ok so I battled another night of the late night munchies and won. It is getting easier. And I wasnt starving when I woke up either. Today the scale said 161.4. So that is 52.6 lbs gone, and only 41.4 to go. Ok I can do this, and I will do this. If it werent for this board coming to my rescue, I think I would have been back to the 180's. I guess you can find friends in strange places. My friends are no longer found via a drive thru window, or the refrigerator. Although, I have to admit I am developing quite an unhealthy relationship with green beans and broccoli! I think I am craving veggies now for some reason....I hope all of you are doing well out there.

Enjoy the strength you feel each time you say no to a sugary or cheezy treat. Feel empowered everytime you finish a workout, and triumph everytime you show somebody else it could be done, when they said it couldnt. Love your circle of board friends. We will love you and support you, even if the call of the Krispy Kreme was too strong for one day. Live each day to the fullest of your potential. Accept that your dreams can and will come true. Be PROUD!

Love,
Carrie
