Day 1 – Walking off the Bulge


Day 1 – I’m hungry!!!!

I really want to do this challenge. It is very hard because I am the greatest about making goals and then abandoning them along the way. After entering data into Spark people, I decided with Spark people’s help that 10 pounds in 4 weeks may be a little unrealistic. I made the goal 10 pounds by October 15. I believe that will make the challenge a 6 week challenge instead of a 4 week challenge.

I reread the article to make sure I understood every thing correctly. Much dismayed to discover that the last sentence in the article reads “The only thing that is important is that your daily calories add up to about 1300 calories. Yikes!!! I most be dedicated and record my food intake – the hardest part for me.

I think that I was on track on Wednesday until after lunch. I ate a Kashi granola bar to beat the 3:00 hunger attach. The real down fall came when my dear husband suggested going out to eat Vietnamese food for dinner. I was starving and I ordered fried wontons. They were so good with sweet and sour sauce. I know major mistake. I also split a noodle bowl with my husband. I had a hard time deciding how many calories were in the noodle bowl that I did not enter it on Spark People.

Well, then it was really down hill after that. At bible study, a friend had small chocolate pieces. Did I resist? NO!!!! I figured I messed up so badly that I could eat a night snack and try again tomorrow.
