So, I have decided that the time has come to be honest about my weight, and my need to get rid of it. I have about 30 lbs on that I need to shed. The last time I lost a good amount of weight, was after Gabrielle was born. I gained about 65 lbs when I was pregnant with her. It took a long time, but was able to lose 80 lbs. Unfortunately close to half of that has snuck back on over the past few years. I found it VERY helpful last time to write down all my food. I decided to make a food diary that I would be excited to write in every day. Here is what I came up with:
Isn't this adorable?? The pizza is from Simply Charmed, the carrot and apple are both from Create a Critter. The title is cut from Baby Step, I welded it on my Gypsy Girl first. I used a stamp from Whimsical Designs - Whimsical Fun stamp set - I love that Yummo stamp! The cute little Peachy Keen faces are from Boy Mates and Happy Lashes. I doodled the food up with my Sakura Jelly Roll pens. I bought some twine last week at my LSS - The Cutting Garden, and I used that to add the final touch for my Food Journal. Here is a close up of that cute little pizza from Simply Charmed. Love it :)
I have been using my Journal faithfully this past week. I have lost 2.6 lbs already! Yay me! I have a ton more to go, but at least this is a start... I hope you all had a good weekend. I will have a few more projects for you this week, so I hope you come back to visit again soon.
