So it's been a week since I posted about my weight problem and I said i would post each week to keep myself accountable.

So.... The Good:
It has been 11 days since I ate any fast food.
I switched to whole wheat wraps like someone suggested, still haven't found thin sliced bread, but I wasn't the one doing the shopping.
There have been days where I have been really tempted to eat at McDonald's but didn't. Like last night, Felix wasn't up to making dinner and I usually wake up too late to do it myself and get ready for work at the same time. It was the perfect recipe for me to say what the hell and get a big mac or go to checkers. I even contemplated going and getting a chef salad. But, I won out, left 10 minutes early and stopped at Wal-Mart and got a chicken ranch wrap (which I figure is better then the footlong hero).

And the bad...

Odd hours make for odd eating schedule and I have to work on that. I should eat 6 small meals a day, but I notice I will eat breakfast (usually a bowl of cereal) and then not eat until 4 or five that evening (even though I get up around noon or 1) and then I don't eat again until 1 am. I think this is setting me up for failure

I haven't started exercising yet. Walking hurts my back and the exercise bike hurts hip. I have an elliptical, but I am 200 lbs over its weight limit. I am going to look into get one of those hand cycles. I am not the type of person who will lose weight solely on dieting and need to find a solution fast.

This weeks weight
555

I lost a pound. I think that sucks, but I didn't put this all on over night either. Also, I ate before weighing in... ooops. I also got to realize that my scale isn't accurate either. The other day it said I was over 560 (actually it said E, as in your too fat to weigh). So right now it is a guessing game... maybe if I had level floors. Anyway, it is still a pound and that is something. I will try to start working out and sweating some (outside of what's under my flab). I do not want to be a fat bride and I'm becoming a recluse because I don't want people to see me. Fortunately, though I look fat, people don't think I'm over 400 lbs, but it's still embarrassing.

Thanks for your time.
