I HOPE I STAY FOCUSED
 
Posts: 26
Ok well since I've become a member I figured it's only right that I use all the things this board has to offer so here goes my diary.

I am currently 217 lbs (217.5 yesterday :-) ). I have always been the cute chubby girl..except for when i was younger supposedly i was too small for my age and grandma had to fatten me up.

anyway i am pretty much the heaviest i have ever been..i did have liposuction in may and that along with the cleansing process i did afterwards brought me down about 10lbs.

I have always been an off again on a again dieter. I have spent money on almost every pill and program available (trim spa, xendrine, la weight loss, jenny craig). I think my problem is that i get comfortable once i shed some pounds and assume i can just do what i want.

Thats why i chose the name i did..although it should be I WILL STAY FOCUSED.

Anyway i started phen yesterday and i am not too sure of its impact yet..i tend to usually just have a big lunch and then by the time i'm hungry again its too late so i just go to bed..and so far thats what has been happening even with the phen...i was scared to start at the highest level of 37.5mg so i got the 30mg..i just hope thats strong enough.

I hope to lose about 15lbs by my bday (oct. 21st) and hopefully i can shed all of the 40ish by Valentines day.

i figured that with this diary i can go through my daily eating/excersing activites to help see what i am doing right and/or worng.

so i'll do the past 2 days in this post

9/22 DAY 1-got phen around 11:00am in office mail..ripped open the package and started immediately...unfortuanelty i dont remember what i had for lunch but i do know that i got hungry at night.after work my boyfriend and i went to the gym and i ran about 3 miles (well walk and ran lol) and burned about 500+ calories so that was great....but then..lol my boyfriend and i went to TGIFridays:-(..i know i know..bad right..however..i got the salad as an appetizer and when i got my meal i only ate a couple bites then took the rest home...so i guess i did kinda good..the only thing was it was around 12:00am and that is definitely to late to eat.

9/23 DAY 2-Woke up really hungry..i was scared to get on the scale b/c i figured my late night eating would have put me over a pound..but i was down a half i pund so i felt like i had gotten a chance to do right today. I took my pill at around 10:00 with a about 20oz of water. I wasnt really hungry but the office went out to lunch. I had chicken and broccoli with BROWN rice...i had a couple bits and saved the rest for later..at around 6:00pm I ate the rest..and here i am at 11:53pm typing my journal..lol

I have been tempted to snack but then i realize that i'm not hungty so there is no need to..i'm trying to learn how to just eat when i am hungry not out of boredom or just to taste good food...lol

SORRY FOR SUCH A LONG POST..but i just threw everything in here..the next ones should be muuuuucccch shorter..promise :?
