I have to admit that the last year f dieting has been hard. Fortunately, it has paid off and so far I have lost 64 pounds. Unfortunately, the last 3 months have been spent yo-yoing up and down the same 4 pounds, so no real progress has been made.
I recently took a job for the US Census. It's temporary, which has an appeal for me. It is also located in the middle of nowhere. So my half hour lunch break leaves me confined to eating a packed lunch at the table in the back with the rest of the group. For me, that's a good thing. I can only eat what I have brought with me. So, by making careful choices and by making sure that I am well prepared for the day, I can strictly limit my food consumption.
I am hoping that this job will provide me with the weight loss jump start that I need in addition to funding the 2011 trip to Italy that I am planning for Michael and me.
Today's selection is a Lean Cuisine cafe selection, and asian pear and a 100 cal pack of Grasshopper cookies. How much better does it get than that?
If the weather was better, I might consider taking a walk after lunch. But, it is so cold that I'll just skip it. Hey, I'm human. I can only push it so far!
I have 21 pounds to go before I consider hiring a personal trainer. Mind you, I said I was considering it, because I am not excited about exercise in any form. So, I guess we'll see.
Off to pack up my gourmet lunch and hit the bricks.
About Coach Caprio
- Mike & Mary Caprio
- Mike and Mary purchased their future retirement home on a whim following the snowbound New Jersey winter of 2010/2011. An episode of House Hunters International convinced them that St. Thomas would be an ideal location to live out their golden years. However, they still have a few years to go before they can pack it in and head to the beautiful island paradise that they plan to call home. In the mean time, they are renting their home and hoping that other people will enjoy this cozy island condo as much as they do.
