okay I must go back to my old habits...but with a new outlook!!!

The types of food you put in your body will make you gain or prevent you from losing weight!!! I was reading facebook one of my classmates with an incredible body stated I think i'm going to break down and have teeny tiny hamburger. Well one comment said I haven't had a hamburger in months I understand the urge. Then this morning I just knew I had lost weight I stepped on the scale and I had gained weight and I ate dramatically less than I had been eating for weeks the previous day. However I was still eating foods that were bad for me like guacamole, a fast food hamburger and a handful of popcorn. So the strawberries and bananas I had for breakfast, the salad for lunch and the orange for a snack didn't mean anything compared to the fat I put in my body. I am not saying you cannot eat fattening foods you just cannot have them everyday. I think I have had this discussion on here before so maybe it is not you all I need to convince it is myself. I will probably lose weight fast if I switch to a healthier diet because my body is so use to the excess calories. So I am going back to what I know that works...like eating a fruit salad for breakfast a salad or soup for lunch and a huge salad for dinner. Don't forget snacks like fruit with a glass of water. I never said I was not eating when I was dropping pounds like crazy I just was eating better. So what happens when I want that pasta for dinner...well I will not splurge until I get back down to 165 or 166 but I will make sure I stay consistent with exercise which will help my body burn those extra calories, and I will not have fast food, fried food, carbs, sweets every day or every week!!! those a splurge items that have to be eaten with extreme moderation. So today I had water, green tea, and apple sauce for breakfast and yes I am full but not stuffed like I normally get when I have eggs, grits, bacon and toast or pancakes and bacon. I think this will be the hardest thing I eve do I mean I have been combating my weight all my life and I am determined to control this before 2011 I will not fail again. So I wanna post some of my inspiration again you all know I love tearsnomore87 on youtube but here are some celebrities in the pictures above!!!

I feel Bad for posting this...Diet Buddy Needed!!!

No I don't feel bad for needing a diet buddy, but I do want one so if anyone is really interested in losing weight and wants someone to communicate with for support I am here. Just post a comment or email me and we can start/complete this Journey together. So on to what I feel horrible about...I have gained weight this morning I weighed in at 173 and tonight I was 171. Additionally I am setting a somewhat weight loss New Years resolution, but mine is to actually complete or succeed in weight loss versus to lose weight this new year. So of course I have started with a mini goal and that goal is to be at least 20 pounds lighter by my friends wedding I have to be in on March 12. My ultimate goal is to lose a total of 53 pounds by a combination of healthy eating and working out. Today my eating consisted of...

A banana and tea

Baked chicken and wild rice

A orange

So I ate okay most people would think I needed to eat more but in my defense I woke up late today around 1:30 and went back to sleep because I have a cold. What I feel bad about was I slept through my aerobics class. So my mini goal for tomorrow and the next couple of weeks is to work out as I have planned. So I hope to post frequently with great updates and more interesting topics. I want to leave you with a little weight loss/ Fitness inspiration:
