140 & Swearing Off Sugar

Yes, I am writing "140" on my palms and have it written on my dry erase board at work.

Why?

Because that is what I want to weigh eventually.  I haven't given myself a deadline yet, but I do have a plan to get down about 10 pounds over the next month or so.  I want to get back, at least to where I was pre-holiday, by Valentine's Day.  I don't know what I weighed pre-holiday since I don't normally weigh myself.  But I will know by how my clothes fit.

Right now I am about ready to bust out of my beloved NorthFace double lined, waterproof, winter hiking pants....and we can't have that.

I also read some of Food Babe's advise.  One of her "rules" was to swear off sugar.  To just do it.  So I did.  I won't be taking the ice cream maker, granite slab for making fudge, and my big-assed KitchenAid with me in the 5th Wheel when we pop smoke in a couple of months.  I don't like how I feel when I'm fat.  It adds to the stress.

So I choose to be thin. I choose the lifestyle of a runner, an athlete, a slender, fit person.  Yes.  I choose that.  I will be that.
