The Diet Doctor

Well People I heard a story from a friend that got to a size 8 by going to a weight loss clinic. So I signed up and went yesterday morning. Got my bag of pills (6 pills @ 8/Day) and set off to start today. For those of you who know me I am not a pill taker (it took me 5 minutes to swallow the first one), but hey a girl will do a lot of things to lose a lb! So this morning I woke up took the three vitamins and my first meal suppresent with the intent of following the three more pills the program requires throughout the day and by the time I got to work I had already quit. It is just not for me. If I am going to have to eat 1200 calories and exercise anyway I just need to fight the feeling and go without the pills.

I did however have a memoriable experience at the clinic and got some very eye opening information about my current health. Some of it was confirmation but it is always nice to see things in black and white.

Another friend introduced me to a new app Couch 2 5K in 9 weeks. RJ and I are going to hit the road running 30-40 minutes every night after work and school. I have a new motivation and am ready to get the ball rolling again. I don't know why but everytime I try to lose weight I gain and when I do nothing I lose.

But, I have been awake since 5 AM at work since 6:30 AM and I am ready to busy up outta here. I am no more good.

On the road to dropping these LBS!

SIZES....

So I'm watching Oprah last week and Jessica Simpson is one of the guests and she is hooking these teenage girls up with a whole new wardrobe including new prom dresses from her collection! Jessica comes out on stage with this too cute pink dress on that I decide I just have to have (where am I going to wear this thing I don't know) but I want it hanging in my closet!

This morning I google to find out who made the dress and it is actually from her collection. Great go to the website it comes in white and pink. Fabulous! I am going to get it in white, my husband loves white clothes on a woman. Select size.... ROAD BLOCK!



Jessica Simpson does not sell clothes beyond size 14! Jaime you have got to lose some weight! You are one size away from opening new doors of fashion. [First dress on the left]

So today I am not eat anything. I see a greek salad in my future from Cajun Town. Maybe blackened catfish and veggies if I am lucky!

Nothing like having the money to shop til you drop and not being able to wear the largest size available!!!!

On the road to dropping these LBS!

WELL....since the last time

It's been three months since my last post. Where I had FINALLY reached my overweight goal of prepregnacy weight of 199. Three months on my new job where I was suppose to lose all this weight and I am at 207 lbs. This is ridiculous! I have money to buy new clothes and and I don't want to go shopping. I had to buy a daily shapewear just so these size 16 clothes would fit appropriately! Sad, but TRUE.

I hope everyone is doing well. Someone told me I should get back on my blogging and try and stay committed to that maybe I will be so embarassed to put the numbers out here I will stop eating!!!!

For the second time in my life I joined WW at an attempt to lose weight I don't even know if I paid for 3 months or 6 months but I am 5 weeks in and I have gained 3 lbs since starting not the direction I was looking for but I have plenty of excuses. (I won't go into them now because I am at work and way too busy!) Just wanted everyone to know I am back, On the Road to Dropping these LBS!!!!

Next post will be on my weight goals. I am looking for contributing authors for my page. Hit me up if you are intersted!
