Day 4 - 39 days to go

I am starting to struggle, and it has only been 4 days. Actually, it hasn't even been four days, it has been THREE because today is the FOURTH. UGH! I just want to eat anything and everything....
I want to cook up my many yummy meals and just gorge myself on great cooking.
I want to bake all my cookies and eat every one of them with a huge glass of milk.

On a lighter note, I am down 5 lbs. I think it is just water weight, but I'll take the loss.

Chicken shish kabobs for dinner tonight. Yum!

Day 3 - 40 days to go

Well, I made the stuffed peppers tonight. I thought they turned out very good. Middle Itty hated the mushrooms and Cabin hated the pepper itself. (I even used a red pepper for him... the same ones he LOVES in stir fry... I think it is psychological.) I will use the leftovers for breakfast tomorrow. Didn't make it far on our walk tonight. I try to walk at least 2 miles every night. MI and I got to the end of the street and it was SO cold and SO windy that we turned back. On a lighter note, we actually drove the route to see what the mileage actually was (2.2 miles) so I felt like I had done it! lol I'll weigh tomorrow even though we are only supposed to weigh once a week. But I need to know.... so far I feel like nothing is happening.

Day Two - 41 to go!

Well, I can honestly say today has been much more difficult than yesterday. I'm kind of crabby today, and normally I would just eat whatever I wanted and feel better.... for a while.... until I tried on that new swimsuit I bought and it looked just awful. But I would fix it by eating again.... (sigh). I made salsa today, and I am making chili tonight. If I can just keep it INTERESTING, I'll do okay, I think. Plus, I just think this is a bad day anyway. Well, off to take a walk......

Day One....The Great Experiment

Last night I received my Michael Thurman's Six Week Body Makeover. I ordered it over a week ago, and wouldn't you know it came as the day drew to a close. Figures. For that week, as I happily anticipated my "kit" as Thurmanites refer to it, I thought about how this experience was going to change my life. I mean, come on! It is a 42-day program and I can do anything for 42 days. Okay, maybe not EVERYTHING; I mean I am not that good at holding my breath. But seriously, I think I can handle this for 42 days. And by then I will know if it is right for me. But I am going to COMMIT to it and see if, indeed, it works like they say it does. Baby steps.... baby steps.... one day at a time. And, if what Mr. Michael says is true, I should be a completely transformed woman by Tuesday, May 4th.
