So I think more why am I not losing, cracks =doubt…. The truth is like to eat (hello I am over weight for a reason). When I was diagnosed 3years ago as a diabetic I weighted 297 pounds that is right 3lb away from 300lb. Over the last 3 years I have lost 30 lb. The reasons is you can loose weight when you have out of control diabetes, some is because I am trying to cut sugar and eat better. But now I am at 267 and standing still no real loss… So in January I started working out I figured the work out would help and it is.
But my real problem is I cheat .. I love butter, salt, pasta, and cheese (My cracks). I talk myself if I eat veggies with butter and salt. Pasta I cann’t stop at a cup, I have to eat 3, so portion control is an issue. I stay up late and get the 12 oclock munchies.. I head for cheese of chips next thing I know I eat almost a full meal. Bad Sherry.
Every time I diet, I get to this point.. right around 30 lb I start to play mental games with myself. Bargaining and trading with my food saying, oh I can have this one thing.. So what am I going to do? I am going to hold myself accountable push through it.
As you know I am applying to be the Next Mamavation Mom from my Friday Fitness last week. I find out this Monday if.. I mean when.. I make the finals, then voting starts. If I don’t, I still plan on following along at on my own using the support of the Mamavation community. I signed up for the Mamavation 2 week challenge it starts April 30th.
I did drink the BookieBoo/ Mamavation Juice. Because I am too strong and tired of playing games with myself.
- I will miss you butter, salt, 2 cup of pasta, and extra cheese.
- I want to listen too myself when I am full, eat more often smaller meals, and not go for the bad stuff.
- I want to be the best I can be and be there for my family. It starts with me.
I am going to post my weight on Monday Mamavation For the Carnival Link Up.
I ran this week I ran and worked out it is getting easier and I am going longer.
I am Strong enough I can do this!!!
Thanks for your continued support

You are inspiring. Go Sherry! Two tips that work for me: 1) If it’s not something I want to eat, I don’t bring it in the house. I know we can only do this sometimes since our families have to eat, too. But I’m winning them over gradually. What’s good for you is good for them. 2) When I need to reboot my body to lose weight, or just to eat healthy, I go on a strict, two week no refined white carbs campaign. Nothing artificially sweetened, no bread or pasta unless 100% whole grain. (“Multi-grain” doesn’t cut it unless they are all “whole.”) We’re watching and cheering for you!
