YIPPYYYYYYY

YIPPYYYYYY>>>>>>>It is finally working.  I can see…or should say, cannot SEE, but can feel….the weight is just starting to come off.  That alone made me so much more determined to continue.

Today I had one of my omelets with two eggs about 10:30 am and then around 4 I fixed a pc. of beef kelbasi, hard boiled egg and sliced tomatoes.  I even had mayo…real mayo….not …less than, less fat, less taste, less, less.  I always use the real stuff.  Anyway, it is starting to work. 

Found out one real life truth.  The older we get, the harder it is to get off.!!!!!!!  

But that’s alright….I must get up everyday anyway, so while I am up, I will just continue to eat my way, and it will come off.

YIPPYYYYYYYYY.  I can just see me now, strutting my stuff in my perfect size 16.  Yep, and I will feel sooooo good.

Ohhhhhhhhh S—T!

 Again, too many days have passed since I was on here last.  Still trying to get this blog the way I like it and having to rely on people to do it since I do not have the expertise.

However, thought I better get on here and say SOMETHING about how “Twila”…(not my real name)  is doing with……….”doing it my way”.

I found that doing it my way is good…….for me………..but it was not good enough.  I found even though the ,,,stuffy feeling…was leaving, the …fluffy, puffy….was still here.  So I decided to get more modified.   I went into the “High gear Adkins Mode”  for a few days just to help me get kick started again. 

It is working.  Truly I am not hungry.  Needing to FORCE myself to eat is where it is at right now.  And I have upped my water intake.

 All in all, I am feeling better with this little change in my eating lifestyle change.

 Would like to see this bring off about 10 pounds in next few weeks.

 We will see.

Oppppssss

 The days are passing so quickly I forget to do things I am committed to.  Forgive me.

The last few days have been great ones for me.  I am STILL trying to get this blog thingy figured out, and want to add more things to it……as soon as……….(the one I hired to do it, did not pan out as expected)  Oh well, will try again today. 

As for my lifestyle eating change.  THAT has been going fine.  Yesterday I was very busy so did not really make “meals” , but DID eat……….more like…..snacks……all day.  Had a banana, a hotdog, a bowl of salad, a cup of black bean soup…twice.  And of course, plenty of water.  

This really is not hard to do.  I AM having problems with wanting to eat bread.  LOVE Italian bread……….no, don’t have it in my house, but reallyyyyyyyyyy want to run to store to get some.  Just don’t. 

Still have not gotten to Richard Simmons………but…….hope THIS week that happens. 

Will really feel like writing more and getting more involved in my blog as soon as I can get it the way I want it.  Am going back to fiverr.com to see if I can hire someone else to help.

 Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day.

Hello Again, Hello.

As the Neil Diamond song goes, Hello Again, Hello.  Been gone from here for a couple of days, had someone working on this blog to try to get it the way I would like to see it….and I don’t know how to fix it. 

Anyway, I am back with  “more thoughts from the diary of (Twila).  (Not my real name, but I like) 

Sooooooo, these last few days have been fine, been eating lots of veggies…..especially for  my …night eating snacks.  And of course, eating soups.  Everything seems to be starting to work.  Seems like I can breathe better….am still working up to Richard (Simmons) and I dancing together.  Been trying new things with my back exercises so hopefully in the very near future “the dancing shall begin”. 

Today I think I will be making a small chuck roast.  Do not eat any pork as I have already stated, and the only beef I eat is a chuck roast once in a great while.  Very very seldom I may have a Nathans all beef kosher hot dog, or a cube steak.  Trying to just stay to chicken and turkey, mostly turkey.  Would love to stay more with fish, but will not eat fish imported from China, and in my area, fish is sooooooooooo expensive.  So for time being, it is turkey first, canned tuna second and chicken third.

 Oh yes, have planned on a beautiful salad today….with romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, onions and avocado.  Yummyyyyyyy, can’t wait.  

Talk to ya’ll later……..have a most wonderful “doing it YOUR way” day.

Reflecting

Ok, gotta say something here………I DO get through the days, pretty easily by the way, however, the “evil that lurks inside of all of us”……(is anyone reading this remember the radio show….”the shadow”??? well that is what the shadow used to say)…..alright, alright, I will get back to the subject.
The “tiny bit of evil”that lurks inside of me…..keeps trying to get me to do things I shouldn’t. Like, saying…….”one cup of ice cream wont hurt” ……..for me…this is NO SUCH THING………as ONE CUP OF ICE CREAM. I keep telling the little twerp…”evil side”…..NO, NO, NO.!

It is a daily fight with that side “evil” and the “Twila side” (not my real name). But I am so very determined to get this weight off and move on to better things. Another reason I am so determined is because, one day I would like to put up a couple pictures of …before & after……and I would really like to be able to SEE A DIFFERENCE. Oh yes, I also have some clothes I really love that I have been hanging on to……..yessssssssss, they are out of style NOW………but by the time I will fit into them…………they will be BACK IN STYLE. THAT is my story, and I’m a stickin’ to it! Anyway, even if they are not in style according to the “fashion experts” who ever the hell they are………I dictate my OWN style. So, I will ALWAYS be in style! ……..Another story I am stickin’to.

Today will be another soup day for me. I love soup as I have mentioned before, made some really good soups for the last two days, now all I have to do is…..heat and eat!

But ……just a tip……do not heat in a microwave. Why? Well, do you want your body filled with “microwaves” ? And, it is not healthy for you. Look it up on Google.

Well, it is bedtime and all I had today was………….soup. It was the great potato soup I made yesterday with ground turkey in it…..had it for all meals and snacks. Was great and really filled me up.
Looking forward to tomorrow.

Another Great Day in Paradise!

This has been a great day. The weather is beautiful, I got enough done today, I made some GREAT soup…..life is good, my family is great……..God is good.

Was not hungry in any way this morning…….TRIED to be hungry, it would not work. Decided to make some potato soup with a twist. I LOVE Olive Gardens Zupa Toscano…..so though I would add some browned ground turkey that I had added lots and lots of crushed red peppers to…to my soup. It worked! Not as good as Olive Garden….but……it was delicious. Sooo that is all I ate today. Soup, Soup, soup. I am full. It is still early so hope I can make it thru the night. Think I will make some tea. Yep, that’s it. Some great herb tea.

Would like to do better tomorrow………….Would also like …….anyone out there who reads this………….HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOO, helloooooooooooooooooooo………are you outttttttttttttt thereeeee?????? IF you are, please help me out here with some suggestions that you think would help either me……or anyone else who reads this.
Until then………Have a wonderful night. See you tomorrow.

A Very Productive Day

Today was a very busy day for me.  Had lots to do and was really feeling hungry by the time I ate.  I had 2 egg omelets with hot salsa and cheese….(my own recipe)…and for a change I even put a dollop of cottage cheese on it.  It was so good and very filling.  About 4 hours later I realized it was time to eat something……..not really hungry but fixed some soup.  Ate soup again at 6:00 pm.  REALLY wanted something sweet……so I ate a piece of bread with some blackberry preserves on it.  NOOOOO, I did not feel guilty, NOOO, I did not……..not like me.  I ate it, enjoyed every tiny bite……and thought…..this has been a really productive day.  I am happy.

God is good.
