Holidaze

Hey, I was worried about the usual "holidaze". Actually last year I had started in late October to try to lose weight and gave up til the holidays were over because I was well, to lazy to be honest and I wasn't truly ready to change. I don't have to worry about Halloween, because I honestly really don't like candy, but Thanksgiving and Christmas used to kill me. This year I have a plan. I'm going to cut my calories to 1200 a day for a week before Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day, I'm not going to have anything but 60 calorie snacks for breakfast, and lunch. Then I am going to use a small dessert sized plate rather than the usual for the actual meal, and allow myself one dessert. The day after is usually a problem for me to because we go shopping for the entire day and we eat out. I've decided to not go to a buffet because it's way to unlimited! I'm going to go somewhere like Ruby Tuesday's where I can have a much better choice selection as far as dietary goes. Then for Christmas I will repeat my Thanksgiving plan. I feel different this time. I don't know how to explain it, but so far I'm not really feeling like I'm losing out on food or feeling sad because I'm not over eating. I have been depressed and stressed out lately, but I know that food is not going to cure me, and actually makes me feel worse in the end. Therefore, I'm happy that I'm changed! I hope I can keep my motivation to see this out. I have a LONG way to go, and am not going to give up! I am weighing in again Saturday, and hoping for 201-202 for my weight. That would be a great loss, and I'm hoping to meet my goal of 198 by November 1st, but I can't promise myself that because that is a lot to lose. Thanks for your continued support!
