Lets Try This Again...

Fall has always been a great time of change for me. I realised a few weeks ago that I no longer fit into the jeans I wore home from Chicago a little over a year ago. I don't mean just a little snug not fit. I couldn't even get them over my butt. As depressing as that seems I know it's my own fault. It seems like every time I've dieted, I've lost a few lbs and then gained that back and more. So now that I have gained over 100lbs in the last year...It's time for a change. I am using MyPlate on LiveStrong.com to keep track of what I'm eating. I don't have a goal, because a goal to me means there is an end. This is a lifetime diet...so it doesn't need an end. I am going to do my best and try and blog as often as I can. Just as an example I counted my calories for yesterday and I ate 5,284 calories. I sat back and thought to myself....No wonder I'm gaining like I am. I know there are days I've eaten more. It scares me that I turn to food when I get stressed or depressed. I know only I can do something about it. So far today I've eaten about 994 calories :) So MAJOR CHANGE!...This week I am going to focus on learning what to eat and try and size my stomach down to where I'm not hungry all the time. Water is my friend :)
