Starting Over and Over Again

Found the scale. Well, Prince Charming found the scale. I am 6 pounds below my starting weight from the last go around. Well.. I guess that is 6 pounds less that I have to work off.

I have started a low carb plan. I do plan to do the Dukan diet once I buy the book, but for now, I am simply focusing on low carb. I have had some success with that in the past (Atkins) but not a ton. I am too short to be able to eat all the protein and fat I want. But I wanted to start somewhere and I have and I am glad I am doing what I am doing.

I do not like the idea at all of going every other day without veggies. That does not feel in any way sustainable to me.. so I am not sure how I am going to handle that. I guess my choice is to lose fast or to live reasonably.

I am usually someone who, when I set out to accomplish something, I am successful with it. I have a lot of willpower and stamina to meet my goals, so the fact I did not end up succeeding with this thing I started last February is very discouraging and embarrassing to me.

I started a bellydancing class a few weeks ago and love it. I wish it was more than once a week.
