3 Day Diet

     Growing up, my mom was always on some kind of diet. I remember her always talking about losing weight and how wonderful this or that diet was. Well, this time I am paying attention. When I got engaged, I gained weight. My fiance had a car, he drove me everywhere, I didn't have to walk or ride my bike unless he was at work. Then I got married. Wow. Now I drive myself everywhere. I cook ALL the time. I stopped watching what I ate until about a month ago. Then I started noticing that my pants were really tight. "Oh no!!!" I started really watching what I was eating, but losing weight is pretty darn hard. BUT, combine this with a diet my mom told me about that is three days of strict meals, then 4 days of normal common sense healthy eating, then 3 days of strict diet, and so on until your goal is reached. Then you just keep eating smart, regular exercise and so on, to keep the weight off.  Now normally I would be all, "Whatever, that sounds stupid, it won't work." But my mom told me she ALWAYS loses 10 pounds for every 3 days she does it. ALWAYS.  So I am going to give it a try. I think I'll start on Monday, because then I can do it every Monday-Wednesday, then break from Thursday-Sunday. 

    To reach my goal I need to do this very strictly 4 or 5 times. If my Mom's results prove true, this is going to be an amazing month for me!!!! Now, I am going to put the link on here just in case someone wants to look at it, but with a warning: Do not do this if you are pregnant or nursing! AND it says on some of the meals to have 1cup of coffee or tea. Obviously, I don't drink coffee, and I'm not a fan of tea either. SO I replace this with water. Water is something you can drink as much of as you want. So I am subtracting even more calories than they do. Win-Win!  http://3daydiets.net/index.php (Do not click on the PDF Download thingy on the side. That's an add. If you want to download it, click on the red tab towards the top that says Download.)

     I am really looking forward to this, so I PRAY it works. If it does, I will be the smallest I have been since... a long time? So, to hold myself accountable, in comes the blog. I have to post my beginning weight (AAAHHHH!!!!!) and then post how much I lose at the end of every 3 day diet. Then, at the end, a picture of my results. Now, I hate telling people my weight. So I that gives me the motivation to REALLY DO THIS. Because I don't want to get on here at the end of all of this and say, "Well, I suck at sticking to diets, I lost no weight." Because then you all know my weight. I am not proud of this weight. So here goes everything, here is my current weight: 165lb.

      I hate looking at that number. Never in the history of my life have I weighed this much. I actually was slightly anorexic when I was a sophomore in high school. If my weight ever seemed too much, I wouldn't eat until it went down to something acceptable. This probably messed with my metabolism a bit right?  Right. So here I am, trying a bit desperately not to starve myself to lose weight. So in a way, this diet is a form a self preservation. I will do this in a healthy way. I WILL reach my goal. See that positive attitude guys and gals? Sweet.

     In other news, Jacob and I are officially moving to Springfield, MO in December. Yay!!!
