Ate too many calories today, but I counted every one and still am confessing them to you. The key is to keep tracking these, no matter what I do. So, here they are.
Tomorrow may be a better day. Let's hope so.
I gained 100 pounds after having a surgery that altered my metabolism (now treated with meds), which was also the same time my late husband was diagnosed with colon cancer. He passed away 1 1/2 years ago. Sure miss him. I know it's time for me to focus on my own health. I have lost 20 pounds so far, but I've been stuck. So I'm trying a number of things including this public "embarrassment" blog where I plan to journal for the world to see what I'm eating. Hope this will help me stick to it.

Golfed and other misc stuff
Hi there. Went to my Weight Watchers meeting today. I gained 1.6 since 2 weeks ago, but that's pretty good considering I wasn't really consistently counting calories. It's still within reason. The 3 pounds that came on yesterday dropped today, so that's real good.
I only ate 1700 calories today plus I golfed 9 holes - 4 miles of walking over 3 hours. Yeah for me. So, that should help.
Get active folks. The summer is gone in a heart beat. Get outside and enjoy the warmth!

One step at a time
Well, day 2 of counting calories - all my calories, and posting on this blog after a bit of a too long break. Yeah, and this morning I got on the scale and saw a lovely 3 pound jump. How nice. I know I ate a lot of salt yesterday, plus I had some baileys Irish Cream (liquor slows the metabolism), and ate too many calories. So, although I took a good walk, I still had a huge gain. GRRRR.
Today I ate way too many calories again. But you know, this is still progress - the fact I tracked 100%. Got to start there and then I'll trim down the calories. That's how I did it before and lost. I will do this.
Tenacity. Very important in life and especially losing weight. That I have. Now it's time to keep using it.

I'm back
Yes, I'm back to my Public Embarrassment Blog. Where was I? OK, I started dating this awesome guy and my life kind of got super crazy and busy. But it's settling down now, and I know I need to do this to help me lose weight, so I'm back blogging.
I ate too much today, but after dinner I did take a good brisk walk so hopefully that will help. It was Father's Day and we had kind of a lot to eat at my dad's house. But at least I tracked 100%, walked, and am back to this blog. Time to get losing more!
Hopefully I'll keep this up and get some more weight off. here's what I ate today:
