Well I am thankfully past the hungry stage. As a matter of fact, I am finding it hard to eat when I have to. I do it, though, because the reason why the program works is, it changes your metabolism. I am fueling every 2-3 hours with protein and whatever goes with it, depending on the meal. So it majorly boosts my metabolism. And since I am eating more healthy, not-so-yummy things, I don't have a problem with wanting to over eat.
I did get to ride my bike though. I waited until Shawn came home, and I went by myself. It is more peaceful that way. I'm getting to the point where going to the traffic light 1.3 miles away is no big deal, so I have been pushing through to the next light, which gives me a 4.3 mile ride. When I got there yesterday, I thought about pressing on, but when I looked ahead, I changed my mind. Sure, it was down hill, but I would have eventually had to go home, and I was SO not looking forward to trudging back up that hill. So I'm saving that for another day.
It won't be today because it is snowing. Yay! They are saying we can expect three to six inches of accumulation. I'll believe that when I see it. The good news is that it will only be here for a couple of days. Sunday's high is supposed to be in the 50's.
I tried those zip lock steam bags for something new last night. I have been using them for vegetables, and they work great, but I cooked some chicken in one bag, and a couple of sweet potatoes in another. Dinner was ready in about twenty minutes. Of course, I am single handedly filling up a land fill, but they are amazing!
And just for the record, this morning I weighed 261.5 pounds. Yay God!

I just read all of the posts on this blog...and I admire you! I think you are SUPER brave, for more reasons than just giving us your weight.
I am with you...I gained back more than half the weight I lost last year...but somehow, I can not seem to get motivated again.
I've been doing some running, some ellipticizing...but I am no where near controlling what goes in my mouth. Food = fun = Fat. Can't shake it...
Maybe we can lean on each other...
