Week 20 begins

A day late.... typical of me, right?

IT's the holiday season....that's partly why! I have too much on my plate.

I am trying to get all these old clothes out of here. My closet is going to be cut in half or more after this purge. Luckily, some are going to friends who are on IP or other diet plans so I don't feel like they're going to waste. Some things (new with tags) are going on eBay and the rest to St. Vinnie's since that's a great way to share the wealth.

It's strange.... my appetite is doing okay and I'm not too hungry. I am getting tired of eating a packet with veggies for lunch although I'm not tired of the actual food itself. I actually enjoy making the same things over and over so it's not burn out from the program. I think I just want to be able to eat whatever I want (although my intent is NOT to eat lots of carbs). I want to have bacon, peanut butter, cheese and other fats again.

Other than that, the plan is still going great. I feel that my taste buds and appetite have completely switched out into a healthy program. I have already made cookies and desserts and the sweet smells actually bug me. I don't think sugar/sweets/desserts will ever be my problem again. Thank goodness for that!

I don't miss potatoes, rice or pasta at all. I do miss bread though. I want the spaghetti sauce, meatballs with parm, a little bit of pizza, flour tortillas with some refried beans.... but I'm still okay. I just really want tastes of them. I know I have the control part down now. Oh well...until my body fat comes down another 13 lbs....I'm still battling away!

I started this week at 159-ish.... I'm up and down right now and I am not sure why. I'm also having lower intestinal issues so I think my water and fiber are way off. My weight isn't going to be normal until this settles back down so I can't beat myself up until my system is normal.  I'm reading 158.6 now so it's down but I really want to see my weight down to 155 or 156 by Saturday. Prefer that to be sans clothing since my breakfast, water, coffee and clothes add 2 lbs!
