The 5 day pouch test

I have been having some trouble with eating the right portions and eating the right foods. A fellow weight loss patient, from my support group, had mentioned this site in an e-mail, and I thought that I would give it a try.

If you are interested in reading more detail about what I am doing, click here to go to the web page.

There are a few things that are going to be hard to get used to, and that is eating in 15 minutes. I have just trained myself to eat slower. But since the portion sizes will be smaller, maybe it won't make that much of a difference.

I plan on starting this Monday the 20th. I will also be going to all of my strength training sessions, 3 times a week, karate classes on Mon. and Thurs., and lastly cardio every day! Wholly cow...did I say cardio every day. Well this weight has to come off some how. I am still sticking to my 50 pounds gone by Halloween. I would love to be able to fit into a plus size costume this Halloween.

I have no reason for excuses, Jim has the bike back on the road, Kelly has a dentist appt. but it's not until later in the afternoon, and finally, I HAVE to do this for MYSELF!! I'm not going to let anything get in my way this time. It's my way or the highway this week. I'm going to regain my self confidence even if it means I'm a little selfish this week. So watch out world....I'm coming through and you better step aside!!!
