VENT & FYI

So i posted something on facebook that was supposed to be a text to my mom. It contained info about the diet i am doing. There are certain people who are getting all kinds of crazy cuz of what they "think" im doing. So i will tell you what i am doing since its so much of a concern. I am watching what i eat. I made a commitment to myself to avoid sugars, starches, unneccessary fats, oil, grease. JUNK food. for a minimum of 21 days. then i will start the next 21 days. After i lose this weight i will be MAINTAINING it. I am counting my calories to make sure that i dont go over a certain amount. And I said i wasnt eating past 8 pm period! i read somewhere that the later you eat the harder it is to lose weight. I personally like to eat the majority of my calories for dinner rather then lunch because it sustains me throughout the night. I am not a breakfast person. Well let me rephrase that. I LOVE breaskfast foods but i dont normally eat at breakfast times. I am also doing the wii fit for an hour a day, 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the evening. I am renewing my vows on my 6th anniversary which is 54 weeks away to have the wedding of my dreams and i need to lose the weight to wear the dress of my dreams. I obviously cant wait til last minute to lose all the weight i need to and still have time to order and fit my dress so i am starting now. I have given myself til April 9th to have lost several pounds and inches. and my downfalls are sugars, starches, blah blah blah...so pardon me if I am making my calories count rather then wasting them. Im choosing Splenda over sugar for my tea...im choosing healthy meats over greasy ones...im choosing fresh fruits over my cake and other desserts...im choosing fresh veggies over buttered down veggies...so again i say pardon me for not wasting my calories on pizza and chicken nuggets and fries (which by the way i love and giving up for the cause right now) but rather on healthier foods. I gotta learn it now or else it wont stay off. And me and my mom are keeping each other accountable. Its easier to do it with someone even long distance than alone. Myh husband is supporting me and encouraging me and saying what i need to hear when i try to beg him to go get me mcnuggets. When i get to the point where i told him that i can have a cheat day then i will get them. Thats gonna be my reward to myself and he is helping me stay on track...Would i love nothing better to have chicken nuggets and fries over a chicken salad well duh! but is that gonna aid me in my weight loss? no! I personally do way better if i am stricter on myself then allowing too many cheat days...i end up quitting. So far i am on day 4 of the first 21. they say it takes 21 days to make or break a habit so im trying to eat totally 100% healthy for 21 days then i will go another 21 days...and so on. I am working really hard right now. have i wanted to quit already? yep but i havent. and My mom and hubby are keeping me on track. I know it takes determination and will power (which im lacking in will power so they are helping me keep it up LOL) to make this happen! So rather then tattling on me to husband or telling him what they think i should or shouldnt do 1. talk to me...im not a child. 2. encourage me rather then criticizing me at least im getting off my lazy too many excuses butt and doing something about my fat self (i HATE the way i look and im tired of my excuses) and 3. support me! THANKS IM MAKING MY CALORIES COUNT NOT WASTING THEM!

I think that is all i have to say right now...thank you and good night!
