This blog is about a mom (me) fighting to get fit and healthy in the year 2011. I will blog daily about my success and failures, the ups and downs of my weight loss journey. I will be open and honest about every morsel eaten, every mile walked, every sit up but most importantly every POUND LOST!

Day 18
Ok yesterday was not the best day for me. I did not walk at all .. I just wasn't in the mood. And last nights dinner wasn't exactly what Curtis Stone would consider to be on the healthy, low fat, low carb weight loss kind of food. I have New England Clam Chowder and grilled cheese. Oooo it was sooo good. I only ate one sandwich and a half a can of soup but I'm sure that was more than enough if I were to count the calories and fat. I don't count calories simply because I've never been really good at it. I mean it makes me crazy to try to figure out how many calories are in a ladle full of spaghetti sauce, and counting out pretzels to what the bag says is a serving size. And how in the world are you suppose to know how many calories to eat. I have checked web sites and charts and none of them make a lot of sense. And if I ever look at a chart that says what a healthy weight is for me it's down right depressing, I'm so short (5'3") that I should weigh about the same as a saltine cracker! It's just too much.. so I try to eat only a sensible amount, until I no longer feel hungry right before I feel over stuffed. Works for me!! Well I'm off to get my day started. I dont have to get the kids up and out this morning so I have a little more time, the plan is to do the treadmill a little longer today to make up for yesterday ... two miles would be awesome .. not sure if I can do it but I will give it a try!!
