Skinny Jeans, Here I Come!

I'm down eight pounds since i started this blog! I slowed down for a few weeks, but I'm back on track. I'm doing no carbs after three again and listening to a hypnosis CD by Tom Nicoli. A new strategy has opened up to me- the sticker chart! I've used them for my children to track achievements. They get a sticker for every success and after 5 or 10 they get a prize. I'm working toward 20 days of sticking to the no carbs (including sugar substitutes) after three. I'm telling you the pounds melt off! This works since i do most of my running around earlier in the day. This would not work if I was working out in the evenings. The logic is carbs are good for energy but if you are sitting on the couch watching TV, they will be stored as fat.
Hope you are all enjoying you summer! Love,
Rosalin
