18 Months Out.

Life is plugging along.
I'm doing much better controlling my bad habits.
I'm still up 2.5 lbs, but I'm feeling confident that will be off soon and hopefully it'll take a few extras with them.

Having Trouble.

Ever since our Caribbean cruise in March, I've been struggling with my food. I'm eating way to much sugar, and my portions size is way out of whack. I find myself eating more and more junk and craving it all the time.
I had reached a low weight of 176.5, and now I'm up to 185. I can't afford the weight gain, both physically and mentally.

What to do?

I've decided a daily blog my be of some help. I know I need to write down my food and weigh and measure everything I eat. I need to get back to basics. The trouble is this reminds me of the good old days of dieting which scares the hell out of me.

Once upon a time these were my new lifestyle changes and now it seems like diet struggles.

Today I started this gloomy day with a bowl of ice cream. How insane is that?
My next meal will be a Lean Cuisine. Not sure about dinner, but I will weigh and measure it so I don't over eat.

I think the free for all eating on the cruise brought out the old habits, and like they say, old habits are hard to break.

I want to go back to the gym, but at this time it's nearly impossible. We just got a new puppy and he's still to young to be left alone. I'm hoping in the next few weeks I'll feel comfortable to leave him with Kayla our older dog.
