A New Year, a new journal! I have been doing awesome in these first days of the month, I am so proud of myself!! On the first, I weighed 212 pounds. Today I weigh 204 pounds!!
The Six Week Body Makeover is really strict, but it works awesome, and I'm hardly ever hungry. I can't eat bread, pasta, red meat, pork, some fish, fats, sugars, or salts. I have to drink 100 oz. of water a day. There is also a workout plan that is specifically designed for my body type. My hubby almost killed me when he found out I spent $160.00 on a diet, but now he's happy it's going so well.
I quit smoking on the third. My last cigarette was after I got off work at 6 am. I'm using Nicorette, and that has helped a lot. My hubbys quitting with me(his last one was on the first). That is verrrrrry helpful!
I am finding that it is easier to stick with my diet since I have not been smoking. Right now I fell so strong, like I have total control over myself. It's awesome!!:lift:
I am completely determined and committed to do this. I WILL do this!

Hello Lani,

Well * * 's to you for quitting smoking thats great. Dh was trying to quit but I still smell it. I was dabbling with smoking through the holidays, Always been a social smoker, But on the first I said no more. Well looks like we are around the same weight..........Wanna race..............lol........Just kidding....

Are you doing the diet that was on OPRAH?

Congratulations on your decision to quit smoking. It's not easy, but it is doable. Kudos to you for losing weight at the same time. Not an easy feat. I wish you continued success on your journey.

Thanks for all the kind words and support, everyone!:)
I'm doing good. Still haven't smoked, and it's getting easier! I haven't exercised since my last entry, but that's okay.
I'm not sure if my diet was featured on Oprah, I miss it once in a while. The diet can take longer than 6 weeks if you have a lot of weight to lose, and then there is a maintenence plan, for keeping it off.
I am down to 203. I can't wait to be in the hundreds again!! :D
The kids are getting restless, I'd better get outta here for now.

GREAT about not smoking :cheer: You can do this!

I have a group that helps people quit smoking, if you are interested let me know and I will post the information for you.

It is free and it's a newsletter that supports you while you are quiting and offers great support, tips etc. :)
