Week 4 energy intake

Saturday 22nd Jan, 2011

Week 3 weigh in

So sorry this is late, I had to leave early this morning...
Ok this is my third week and I am fairly happy with my progress, although I wish I could just take a pill and be done with it…  (I’m not being ungrateful; I am just expressing a ludicrous notion out loud). This leads me to a thought that has been plaguing me for weeks. You know it’s a pretty screwed up world in which we live, as part of the world’s population is obese and there is a multimillion probably billion dollar market to cater for it, yet an even larger portion of the world’s population will not eat today and yet I am worried about eating too much today! Gee how did I get it so wrong? This is such a confronting subject that I’ve wanted to post for a while, but I was afraid that people would be turned off and not come back and check in, but I had to say it, so sorry. It’s my Tourette’s syndrome breaking through, but I edited the swearing!
Ok, back to the superficial aspect of things, this week’s progress is as follows:-

Thank you beautiful people

I just want to say a big THANK YOU, as over the last week I have been receiving texts, emails, facebook messages, comments and chats that encourage me to keep on going. I am really grateful for these words and I am also encouraged and inspired by other people and their own weight loss success.

So once again, thanks for sharing this journey with me...



Thanks again xoxo

xoxo Alex

PS: only 2 days until my next weigh in

What the...

Well I'm not sure what is going on? It's almost like I am not wanting to lose weight, as I seem to be eating and want to eat everything in my sight and unfortunately my sights are not on celery sticks.
