Oh so Tired

Here I am again. So tired with so many ideas. We have been busy here on he farm. Getting ready to chop corn. Once we slow down, it will be much easier to type. 

Not sure if I had covered this but the famous Question keeps coming up!

WHAT DIET ARE YOU DOING?

Well Dairywoman Diet is what I am calling it now. 

I get up and make a smoothie to take to the barn. The Smoothie has to have a green, flax seed and Coconut oil in it.

I will sometimes take a fruit to the barn also.

If I feel up to it, I might snack on grapes or crackers.

Lunch is fruit, veggie and protein, Sometimes I will have a carb too. This is the last chance at a carb for the day.

I once again Snack on anything.

Dinner time a fruit, veggie and protein again. NO CARBS!

After we are done milking, I will grab something small and have a glass of chocolate milk.

Chocolate milk is super good for you and he healing of your muscles.

I think I am way to tired. I may add more another time.

Sugar?

Not Sugar, Babe!

Sugar is one of our worst enemies. Lets think how much sugar we eat.

Spices you put in your food, I would say 70% of the prepackaged spices and seasonings are mixed with sugar.

There are natural sugars in food and added sugar in food. We should only have 6 grams of sugar a day. That is out done with a pop. I am sure you just don't have one pop either.

Make sure you check everything before it enters your mouth, Especially if you don't make it.

Slowly cut it out of your diet. Dont just stop. You will go through some rough withdrawals. 

Cut out one type of sugar a week. That will help plus you dont know where are all the sugars are. 

I cant think much more to say on this topic.

Please if you have any questions or comment, let me know. 

I will do my best to answer them. 

Weight: 175

*Inches: up 1 inch. (i will look it up tomorrow)

*I measure Neck, Arm, Chest, Abdomen Waist, Thigh, and Calf. My inches will be the total. I am going to try to post it as much as possible.

currently I have stayed with in 2 pounds of 174. I think I have hit a hard pleatu and I just may stay here for a bit. Let my skin catch up. I started at 292 five years ago.

Lets talk "Words"

What you say to me sometimes is not always the greatest.

Lets think!

Wow! Don't you think you have lost enough?! I think you are loosing to fast!

I never knew you were that big!

Are you eating?

How can we change this, so it doesn't sound like this.

Please be supportive of me loosing weight. I have a husband making sure I am eating and healthy as I am working my butt off to do what is best for me and my family. 

I have a goal to hit. That would be the number of 160.

Do you think that is low enough or not?

Does it matter?

Maybe I want to go lower.

My BMI weight should be 125, What would one say to me then?

How much should be lost in a week?

Do you have any idea what is safe?

I been stuck between 174 & 176 for the last 2 weeks, is that bad?

No it isn't. My body is adjusting to all the changes that are taking place. I am allowed to gain and loose. I am allowed to loose up to 2 pounds a week and be safe.

Well I guess if I felt "that BIG", I am changing things now.

I love to eat so YES I am eating! Don't you think Shane would say something if I wasn't.

Maybe if I had all kinds of bone sticking out then maybe you can question me.

When people say those things to me I start to wonder if they are jealous.

Is that wrong that I start to think that?

NOPE! 

Continue I makes me feel better now.

When Someone is loosing weight and you are close with them, Maybe tell them something you notice.

I love when someone says to me, Wow! your face looks skinnier.

My husband says the greatest things ever.

When he told me today how Proud he was of me and that a year ago I could never have pulled this outfit off. THAT MADE ME FEEL GREAT!

Not everyday is a loss

Losing and Winning

Oh boy! Some days I really feel like giving up. A few people asked why I haven't posted. Well We had fair and it has been crazy! I had multiple times opened up a post and never got to it.

We wont always be perfect.

That goes for weight loss too. Can not be discouraged because of a gain.

That is a sign to get on the horse and maybe ride a different pace.

Change something up. If you are working out, I could be muscles. 

I have thought many times the last week or so about giving up. Life gets in the way and gets really hard.

I have support that I can turn to or knows me well enough to know something is off.

Find yourself someone that understands you. 

You need someone to tell all the great news that will get excited as you are.

You need someone that you can tell all the crap to and will give you a hug and help you move on.

You need someone that can tell you when you are wrong or something is wrong.

You need to be CONFIDENT in yourself that YOU can do this.

  

Today is one of those days. I just gave up and gave in. I ate things I should not have.

I drank pop and tea. So now tomorrow when I get on that scale, I will cry.

Tomorrow is a new day.

I FAILED miserably today. 

Its ok. We make it right. Thank you to my Friends (you know who you are) that call or text at that perfect time. 

If it wasnt for them, Not sure where I would be.

Make sure you have that somebody.

You can even write me. I will be excited for you, Cry with you and give you the boost you just might need. Take it one day at a time and just believe.

So for now, I am done. I let you know that i mess up and will resolve it again and again.  

Next topic is "what not to say to me"
