Day 1 of no more excuses..

So, here's my story. I'm 42, female and pretty active. My two jobs (Server and Bridal Consultant) keep me busy all day long. Both are pretty physical jobs. There are times when I work and I don't stop or sit down for over 10 hours. Problem I have is I don't eat enough and when I do eat, my portions are large. I mean, I worked yesterday without lunch and I polished off half a pizza at dinner time.

I've done Jenny Craig in the past and it has forced me to keep a schedule of eating and I've lost weight. I just don't have the money or the time to dedicate to this program again. Plus, it's a quick fix. Once I loose some weight, my lifestyle doesn't change and I'm back to poor eating habits.

Another problem is I don't food shop enough. When I'm working at the restaurant, I'll just grab something there. Or I'll grab something to eat before I work. These options usually aren't the best choices. Can you say Sausage, Egg and Cheese on a toasted bagel. Yummy but oh so bad. And that will what I eat to sustain me throughout the day when I don't get a chance to eat lunch.

So, here I am looking to loose 10-15 pounds. Not a large amount but enought to make me feel better and look better. I need to see what I am eating and how many calories because the weight is not coming off regardless of the spin classes I take three times a week plus all of my walking around.

Hope this works.
