Another update!
I was down to 210 a few days ago; but I slipped up a bit and had some sugary stuff yesterday. Someone brought a huge tray of Christmas goodies and I had trouble passing up the Buckeyes. They are one of my favorites!
I'm back to the grind today though. I weighed in at 211.8 this morning (a little water weight fluctuation most likely). Starting this diet around the holidays was a dumb idea on my part; but I intend to stick with it!
I made some delicious pasta sauce the other night and will post the recipe for that soon. It was outstanding!

Update!
Just a quick update today! I'm down 15 pounds and so excited! It's nice to see the numbers on the scale going down! Sticking to the diet pretty good! I did cheat yesterday. I had a few white chocolate covered Oreos...those are my favorite! =/ The only other slip up I had was back around Thanksgiving for the pumpkin pie (which sounds really yummy at the moment!).

So far so good...
I'm down to 216.8 this morning, so I am seeing progress and that motivates me! I've been doing really well on the diet with no cheating at all. This alone amazes me. I have such a sweet tooth. Jaz and I were in F.S Chocolatiers over the weekend and my cravings kicked in momentarily. Again, chocolate and ice cream are the two things that I crave most (and they have both). I was really craving gummies though! Either way, I didn't get any. (Yay me!) I was looking at their sugar-free chocolates as well and was very tempted to try one; but I resisted! I asked the lady that worked at FSC about the carb content of the sugar-free content and she didn't know. She said she only knew that they were made with maltitol (a sugar alcohol/substitute). Later that afternoon we were at Target and I was perusing the sugar-free candy selection and found that the carb content of sugar-free candy is the same as regular candy! Talk about misinformation! So, no sugar-free candy for me :(
I've noticed in my food tracking that I'm not getting enough fiber so I had to look for a supplement. I don't like the powders and didn't really want to take the pills so I found some sugar-free Fiber Gummies at Walmart. (They even taste like regular gummy candies!)
On to food...
I made some pan-fried Tilapia fillets last night. I seasoned them with a premixed seasoning that has crushed red peppers, garlic, and pepper and fried them in butter. (It turned out delicious.) I also made some steamed broccoli and fresh baby spinach sauteed in bacon. (Made some black beans and rice for the kids.) It was a delicious meal and had the fat and protein that my diet needs!
I found a recipe that I really want to make. Rib Eye Steak with a Creamy Onion Blue Cheese Sauce it looks delicious! Anyways... back to work!

Update!
I'm sticking to the diet pretty well and haven't cheated any more! Still have cravings every now and then (usually crave chocolate or ice cream) and my cravings tend to happen in the evening when I'm watching TV or messing around on the computer.
I really need to get in gear with the exercising... but I keep forgetting my clothes and shoes at home when I leave for work in the morning. (I'll try to remember in the morning!)
