Insanity

I have heard that the defination of insanity is: doing the same thing over and over, but expecting a different result. That about sums up me and weight loss. For some reason I never seem to go the distance. Bob Greene, Oprah's weight loss coach, says a personwill never be successful at weight loss until they figure out their real issues. I think that means you need to feel that you deserve to be successful.
So I guess that means I need to do the work and try to find out what keeps me from attaining my goals. But I don't even know where to begin. Wish me luck...

Two Weeks

So yesterday was two weeks on the Dr. Oz plan. So I weighed in at 194.4 and my waist measurement was 41. Now I know that my waist started at 40 but that must have been wrong because halfway through I measured it and it was 42. Apparently I measured wrong...but I do feel that I lost 1 inch and I am happy with that.
I did notice that I am not hungry and am very happy with that also. The other night we had pizza and I didn't even eat all of mine....believe me that is a great improvement.
The purpose of the two weeks was to stabilize the blood sugar levels and to tame cravings. I think this was successful in my case. Anyway I am happy and plan to continue eating healthfully.
Onward and DOWNward!!
