First of all, "Welcome" to those of you who have recently started following. I am so happy to have you with my on my journey!
Secondly, thank you all for you sweet compliments on my size 16 pictures. I am feeling pretty great these days and am SO HAPPY with my progress. I have learned so much about myself in these past four months and all of my fellow blog friends have been such a big part of that.
I am working again today, not wearing a cardigan, but a lovely red library polo. I was tired this morning and had a tough time getting out of bed. I didn't exercise as I had planned and when I got to work I saw 3 big boxes of donuts. I had one, couldn't resist, it was chocolate and SO good. Something that has actually worked for me ** warning may not work for you** is that I am super strict Monday- Friday eat 1000 calories (each day) work out an hour - an hour and a half and then ease off on the weekends. In fact I usually don't worry about calories at all. I don't go insane, but I generally allow myself a dinner out and eat whatever I want and have desert. I may have a cookie or donut and a few drinks. I think it shakes up my metabolism. This is what I did last week and I lost 3.4 lbs. I am not saying this will work for everyone, but I am lucky enough to still get optimal weight loss this way.
Anyway, hope you all had a great weekend and are enjoying your Sunday!

I think I will do something similar to your plan...right now I am over 1000 calories, but I am definitely keeping it low, maxing out around 1200 most days, 14 on a "bad" day. But I've let myself have one whatever meal...the difference is that while it is a whatever meal, it is no longer the gorging that would have once meant...
enjoy those 16s!
It sounds like you are doing so well - a huge congrats on that. I might try your idea - I'm a little desperate. I've been stuck on the same weight for weeks now - argh! lol I'm willing to try anything. Thanks for the heads up.
I like your idea too!! Keeps your metabolism guessing!
