I've Been There....Done That

No more crutches.... No more cash....
If I can't 'get real' with myself... Then, I'm meant to crash.

Diets deny.... Which isn't fun.....
Healthy eating.... On a whole wheat bun.

Wow, I can't believe it's taken me this long to get back to this blog.  That's my life has been going with my diet.  Since then I rejoined Weight Watchers, and as usual, I am very successful for the first five or six weeks and then something throws me off.

I was about to start a new diet - "The Diet Revolution" with my sister, which would reset my metabolism, but after reading the whole book and seeing the expense I would incur, I've decided not to take that route.  In the meantime my sister is trying it and I will let you know how she does.  

Instead, I ran into a woman (my age - 66) who looked FAB and I asked her how she stays so thin.  She told me that her kids went on this 8 Hour Diet and  they lost weight and she just follows that.  She said she loves pasta and bread and loves it.  I went right out and bought the book and my husband and I decided to give it a try.  You eat within 8 hours and fast for the other 16.  I never thought I would be able to do this since I'm a late-night snacker, but I absolutely love it!!!!!  It's the easiest thing I've ever done.  

I don't eat any processed food anymore, no diet sodas, no sugar, no white bread or flour.  I drink at least three cups of hot tea every day and that is also my late-night snack.

I'm never hungry - I no longer get headaches - I have more energy.....and this is only my first week.  To top it all off, I lost 4.2 lbs. since Monday (it's Thursday).  I eat two meals during the day and snack in between,but as I said - it's all healthy.  No artificial anything goes into my body.

I never thought I could live this way, but it is so easy. I highly recommend the book for those that want to lose.

I'll keep you posted on my progess.
