Pushing 40

 Hello world, 

Jenny here. Haven’t blogged in about a million years. 

I’m turning 40 this summer. 

I weigh now more than I have ever weighed. Ever. 202.

Even while nine months pregnant. 

Yep. 

I think I have a food addiction. 

We have recently made some big changes like moving to Washington, my son leaving on a mission, and another son with really hard mental health and Behaivior problems, which I’m sure has triggered it. 

I started an Rx weight loss drug, Phentermine, about three days ago. It’s been good, but still hard, because I am still human and still hungry all the freaking time. So very hungry. It’s like I just can’t get full. So frustrating. 

I had to buy some bigger clothes over the last few months and even those clothes are getting tight. 

I am ready to start another weight loss journey. This starts now. 

This will be my weight loss tracking diary. 

Pretty ok

I lost about 5 pounds. I am now about 146. Yay, but I need to lose about ten more. It's hard. I'm hungry.

I am Going To Do It!

I am going to reach my goal weight of 133 pounds by March 15th.
This is a fact.
I beleive.
Today is day one of the south beach diet phase one.
Yay!
Yesterday I knew I was starting the diet today so I kind of binged a little.
So I gained two pounds yesterday! Crappy i know.
Well, at least now I can say I have lost more.
So this morning the scale said 151.7.
And the other day I was 149.
Well I am hoping to get down to 133.
That's a loss of 18.7 pounds.
Less than 20.
I can do it! I am going to do it!
Here I go!
Love,
Jenny

South Beach- back at it

Hello.
I started the South Beach Diet again.
I started on November 9th and I'm going to do Phase One until Thanksgiving. Let's just hope Thanksgiving doesn't make me gain all that I have/will lose.
I started out at 151 Pounds.
Todays weight is 147 Pounds, but I think a lot of that was water weight, but woohoo anyway!
My goal weight is, as always 133 Pounds.
I know I can do this.
I am doing this.
I have the self control.
Food does not control me.
I just need it to keep me alive and well nourished.
I don't need it for fun.
I am excited to be 14 pounds lighter in a few weeks.
I will officially be lighter than Justin for the first time ever!!!!!!!!!
Now that will be something. We are totally going to get family pictures when that happens.
Love, Jen

Doing wELL

142.9!!!!!!!!! Sweet! We are planning a trip to Las Vegas and I'm going shopping at H & M! Sweet! I can't wait!

Chuck-a-rama

I just ate there. And I had TWO scones with cinnamon honey butter. It was sooo good! But I won't be doing that again for a while. I hope this won't screw up my weight loss. We shall see......

Stuck

So, I've been on phase one for five days now and I've stayed at 145.9 for the past three. Better than 148, but I was hoping for a quicker weight loss. ;(
