Change of Plans
If you’ve followed my diet journal you know that for the past 6 months I’ve been struggling to get below 302. I’m really stuck and have been at a loss for what to do to help me get going again. I brought these concerns to Master just over 2 weeks ago because even though it’s not a rule that I need to loose weight he supports my choice to become healthier. He has also expressed a desire to get back into working out and eating healthier is always encouraged.
Really we’ve been eating really poorly lately, primarily due to the lack of funds. There’s only so many things you can get when you’ve got pennies in your pocket. But now we are ready to sacrifice other things so that we can eat better, work out more and become healthier. Maybe that might stir my loosing again.
As a part of this plan, Master is my workout buddy. Three times a week he and I work out for 30 mins (to start). Right now he and I do different things but I’m sure at some point we want to go to a gym again. Dreams are great though and one day we will go back to the gym and I will definitely be loosing then. I loved the gym. I do the DVD workouts I have right now. Master likes to walk.
I also have a few rules when it comes to food. I have to ask Master before I eat anything. He will decide if it’s within my realms or not. Basically he’s my concious. I am also not allowed to detour on my way home from work to stop at the store for anything. If I have an errand I have to ask Master first, and he has been coming with me most days.
Maybe I’ll get under 300 by the end of the year. I have 6 lbs to go. While that seems tough it is possible under healthy conditions. Here goes nothing right?

I do like your determination and I’m sure you can reach your goal weight, one thing though, something that just as many people do as don’t do - loose means not tight, lose means to no longer have, you are spelling it wrongly, just 1 o is enough. Please don’t think I’m being pedantic, I don’t mean any harm and wish you well as you continue to lose weight and get fit with the help of your Master.

Thank you for pointing out the syntactical error.

I also wish you well in your weight loss journey, but please try and stop blaming poor eating habits on lack of funds. You should be able to eat healthy on a budget … I am living proof that overeating is a symptom of bigger problems and lots of excuses come with these bigger problems. Lack of funds is just one more excuse. What worked for me was to do a menu at the beginning of the week that fits within my budget. There are lots of free resources available to help you menu plan for pennies. While having someone else control your input may help, if you help by having the right things available that might be part of the solution. Good luck!

I have been at the same place you are. It takes time to get it off to keep it off, please try to remember that. I have lost 100 pounds took me about 10 years but i did it. Then Master said that it was too much so I had to gain 20 back, but I feel great. You can do this. Somethings you might try. I know that a pakage of frozen brocoli cost less than $1.00 and a single apple is less then $.50 you can do it. You just have to make better choices. I used to eat 4 candy bars before I got home from the store. I feel your pain but just hang in there.
Good Luck
