Twinkie

As many of you know that a while ago I did the HCG diet. I lost 35 pounds, but gained most of it back.... Surprise, surprise, surprise:(:(:( I was going to be different and keep the weight off, by joining Weight Watchers after. I just didn't know what I would have to go through emotionally. I had the strength and determination to do the HCG, but it took it all out of me by the end of the diet. A good, wise friend told me before I started, that people need to start changing their eating habits before, that way they will have them to start back on after. I didn't listen of course and now have regretted it. I know I can't go back and change the past, but I will never do the HCG again. So now I am going to take the advice of so many wise people and start the eating healthier and exercising part.


So now again I am going to reveal my weight and let you in on my goal. I am at 224, my goal is to get down past 200 and stay that way for a month. If I do this, my super Hero, Steve has graciously agreed to get me a Silhouette. (What it can do will have to be in another post)

I have wanted one for a long time. I am hoping this will be good motivation, beside being healthy and having more energy. I also won a dress from Shabby Apple, that is just gorgeous. I do have loose weight to look good in it...


My friend is doing a 5k and asked if I wanted to do it with her and a group of her friends. So, I am going to be doing it at the end of this month. It is the Biggest Looser 5k.

So this one I am training for. We get to meet some past contestant's from it, ask them questions and get pictures with them. I am way excited, but way nervous. (I need to be on this show...hehe)

I have been trying to walk at night and not eating as much. As I was at Wal-Mart one night, I ran into my cousins wife. She was on her way to Zumba. I have heard about it, but never had gone. She told me the first time you go it is free. I thought, heck why not. So last night I went. This one is Disco Zumba, they turn off the lights and have a disco ball on.

That was pretty neat, but you have to do it in front of the mirror. As we got started, I looked in the mirror and thought I look like a twinkie, someone with no shape, just fluffy and doughy in the inside.

As I was shaking my booty, I thought I was doing pretty good, but then I looked in the mirror and it didn't like I was hardly moving. That made me more depressed. Now I have to loose weight before I go back...hehe

I know loosing weight the "right" way, will take time, but in the long run will be worth it and hopefully stay off longer. I just have to not let things like feeling like a "twinkie" ruin it.
