Observations, Contemplations and Wishes

So I've moved past the cheating.  I've realized that if I cheat, it's not the end of the world.  It's not the end of the day even!  I just get back on it.  I've lost all the weight that I gained back during Elvis's birthday!!! :)

I've been thinking about donuts for almost 2 weeks!  Today, I walked past a box at work and I even stopped to smell it.  OMG, it smelled SO good!!!  I really really wanted one.  But I walked away.  I only really think about cheating during the weekends.  During the week, I don't have time!!

I've realized that at work, I drink coffee, ice water and when I get off I come home to eat "lunch".  Today I had 3 cheese sticks, some cauliflower, broccoli, french onion dip, some honey ham sandwich meat, some cheddar cheese and 2 sugar free peanut butter cups.  Tonight, I'll probably have 2 slices of bacon and scrambled eggs with bell pepper, salsa and a little cheddar cheese.  I don't feel as fat as I did last week.  That makes me feel better.  :)

I've been watching one of my best friends as she's started on a new journey.  She's doing Advocare.  She lost 13 lbs the first 2 weeks.  She started the 24 day cleanse 3 days ago and has los another 6.5... That's 20 lbs in 2 weeks and 3 days!!!  I'm so excited for her.  I am so excited, infact,  that I'm really thinking of doing it myself!  Her first 2 weeks were on a metabolism booster and energy drinks.  That is how she lost the 13 lbs the first 2 weeks.   So that's what I'm contemplating.  I want to try the metabolism booster and the energy drinks.  I"m going to try them after she sends them.  We'll see how I feel with them.  It'll mean going off of the low carb diet.  That does make me nervous.  But we'll just see how it goes.  The thought of losing 13 lbs in the first 2 weeks... that would be almost as much as I've lost the whole time I've been on the Low Carb diet.  I'm hoping that I'll see the kind of weight loss that she has.. that would put me at 30 lbs lost.. It would make me so incredibly happy.

I'm still hoping for a ring... Vegas is only 3 weeks away.  I doubt he's going to pop the question... I hope so though.  :)
