100 Pound Loss

Week 2, I lived through it.  A small loss.  The numbers go down so slowly.  But they went down in spite of a weekend in Reno at Hot August nights.  I had to have the hotel room with mirrors everywhere in the bathroom.  There is no stronger image to keep in mind why you need to lose weight than the image you get seeing yourself naked from all sides. I played video poker with virtual dealers who changed just like real ones.  One of them had a shapely figure.  The juxtaposition with my image was pretty humorous now that I think of it.  I am trying to take the whole thing serious but have a sense of humor about it too.

I found a good fat free dressing: Maple Grove Farms of Vermont Fat Free Poppyseed Dressing. I wish someone would work on making better fat free cheese.  Most of them taste like plastic.  One time I left fat mayo on  a knife and it hardened like plastic.  Oh well.  I am determined to make it this time.  It is hard though when the pounds come off so slowly.  I do feel better though.

I need to exercise.  Walking would be a good start, but it is difficult to put on a pair of shoes and walk around the block. Just kidding.  But I need to motivate myself more.  Energy comes from exercise.  I know that from my long distance running days.  So I am determined to get back to it.

I heard that Phelps, the gold medal winner,  eats 12,000 calories a day.  Yikes!!!

Well I keep going anyway.
