June 4, 2010 Day 7 of Year long Journey

My food obsession has been alleviated over the last week. I have a process of waking up, turning the second computer on that hosts dietpower, make coffee and one or two of my usual breakfasts, whole grain toast with almond butter or steel oats with slivered almonds and brown sugar, turn the main computer on, go back to the first computer to log in what I plan to eat for the day in dietpower. I usually follow what I have logged. Sometimes I eat more or less. I write down the changes on sticky pad notes that I will log onto my dietpower later.

I have been sticking to less than 1300 calories, not including the 500 calories I burn exercising each day. If I exercise I will have 1800 calories. I eat better when I use dietpower. I usually get a B or C for the day. I take calcium, fish oil and vitamins to help this body.

I have lost about five pounds. This morning the scale read 224 pounds and 49% body fat. I will lift weights three times a week for over an hour to keep my muscle and hopefully only lose fat. My body pump workouts remind me of the biggest loser workouts. I am fighting for the added years on my life. I see myself at 150 pounds.

I will not miss donuts, cakes, pies and other foods that are bad for my health. At fifty three, I have had more than my share. I want to be the last golden girl alive like Betty White.
