November to Remember, Week 2

Well, it hasn't been a great week, but we are back on the ban-wagon! I weighed in today, and next Monday will post any percentage change. Need to be down 4% of current weight by Thanksgiving, which is only 3.5 weeks away!

One thing that I realized is that I cannont keep cookie dough in the house...I just don't have enought will power to eat it in point size portions...... Also something that I am working on this week is to eat small portions at dinner time. For example, I really needed to have eaten 1/2 as much lasagna and bread last night as I actually did. The other thing I will be working on is trying to eat by 7pm, and get into bed by 10 or 10:30pm, so I can get up to workout in the mornings :)

Well, until next time..... :)

November to Remember!

Mom and I are having a November to Remember. Both of us will be trying to reach our goals by Thanksgiving. One of the ways that I will accomplish this is to lay out workout clothes by the bed the night before, so I can get straight out of bed, change and get to the gym downstairs. We have a new weight system, and I'm looking forward to using it :) Another way that November will be a month to Remember is to finish getting my bedroom organized. Being organized helps me to feel more peacefull, and I don't get the urge to graze as much when in a peacefull state of mind.

My plan is to blog Monday & Thursdays to keep myself motivated. I also have to say that my sister Anna and mom Gail have been a great source of motivation for me as well. They have been doing really great! I need to come up with some more ways to stay motivated :)
