My weight is 166.
I have been walking at Lakebottom and doing the stairs five times in front of Columbus High School. On the weekends my friends and I have been renting bikes. We ride on the River Walk. The second time we rode all the way to the entrance of Ft. Benning that was almost 19 miles.
For lunch, a shrimp and strawberry salad.
It has been months since I have written to this blog. I will try to do better. Writing the exercises and my meals will help.
This evening I am supposed to go to water aerobics with a friend.
Celebrations:
size 10 Rockstar jeans from Old Navy
size 10 jeans from Old Navy
size 10 dress
This is the first time I have been in a 10 in almost 10 years. That is crazy and yes time does keep on moving. Chaning my daily behaviors has helped maintain my weight. Continue to do what's is best for my body.

Can you Believe it?
Do you know that I have finally gotten below 170 lbs. It has been a long time coming. The current weight is 166 and I contribute it to the GM Diet.
I did the following weight loss diet program and it worked wonders. I strongly recommend anyone desirous of loosing weight to start on this program immediately. Best part of the program is that it is doable! --- B. H. Jajoo
General Motors: Weight Loss Diet Program
The following diet and health program was developed for employees and dependents of General Motors, Inc. and is intended for their exclusive use. This program was developed in conjunction with a grant from U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration. It was field tested at the Johns Hopkins Research Centre and was approved for distribution by the Board of Directors, General Motors Corp. at a general meeting on August 15, 1985. General Motors Corp. wholly endorses this program and is making it available to all employees and families. This program will be available at all General Motors Food Service Facilities. It is management's intention to facilitate a wellness and fitness program for everyone.
This program is designed for a target weight loss of 10-17 lbs per week. It will also improve your attitudes and emotions because of its cleansing systematic effects.
The effectiveness of this seven day plan is that the food eaten burn more calories than they give to the body in caloric value.
This plan can be used as often as you like without any fear of complications. It is designed to flush your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well being. After seven days you will begin to feel lighter because you will be lighter by at least 10 lbs. You will have an abundance of energy and an improved disposition.
During the first seven days you must abstain from all alcohol. You must drink 10 glasses of water each day.
Day One All fruits except bananas. Your first day will consist of all the fruits you want. It is strongly suggested that you consume lots of melons the first day. Especially watermelon and a loupe. If you limit your fruit consumption to melons, your chances of losing three lbs. on first day are very good.
Day Two All vegetables. You are encouraged to eat until you are stuffed with all the raw or cooked vegetables of your choice. There is no limit on the amount or type. For your complex carbohydrate, you will start day two with a large baked potato for breakfast. You may top the potato with one pat of butter.
Day Three A mixture of fruits and vegetables of your choice. Any amount, any quantity. No bananas yet. No potatoes today.
Day Four Bananas and milk. Today you will eat as many as eight bananas and drink three glasses of milk. This will be combined with the special soup which may be eaten in limited quantities.
Day Five Today is feast day. You will eat beef and tomatoes. Eat two 10 oz. portions of lean beef. Hamburger is OK. Combine this with six whole tomatoes. On day five you must increase your water intake by one quart. This is to cleanse your system of the uric acid you will be producing.
Day Six Beef and vegetables. Today you may eat an unlimited amount of beef and vegetables. Eat to your hearts content.
Day Seven Today your food intake will consist of brown rice, fruit juices and all the vegetables you care to consume.
Tomorrow morning you will be 10-17 lbs. lighter than one week ago. If you desire further weight loss, repeat the program again. You may repeat this program as often as you like, however, it is suggested that you are allowed two glasses of white wine in addition to the instructions on the program. You may substitute champagne for white wine. Under no circumstances are you to drink any other alcoholic beverages with the exception of beer which is allowed. Any liquor (bourbon,vodka, rum) is forbidden. Cream drinks are especially forbidden. You may have an occasional cordial such as creme de menthe or schnapps, but you must always limit yourself to two drinks. If you wine, drink only wine that day. If you have beer, drink only beer that day, etc. Alcohol adds empty calories to your diet. However, after the first week it will help your digestion and settle your stomach.
G.M.'S Wonder Soup
The following soup is intended as a supplement to your diet. It can be eaten any time of the day in virtually unlimited quantities. You are encouraged to consume large quantities of this soup.
28 oz, Water, 6 Large Onions, 2 Green Peppers, Whole Tomatoes (fresh or canned), 1 Head Cabbage, 1 Bunch Celery, 4 Envelopes Lipton Onion Soup Mix, Herbs and Flavouring as desired.
Additional Comments
Vegetables as may be taken in the form of a salad if desired. No dressing except malt, white or wine vinegar, squeezed lemon, garlic, herbs. No more than one tea spoon of oil.
You have been given a recipe for the WONDER SOUP which can be eaten in unlimited quantities. This soup is a supplement while you are on the program and it should be a pleasure to eat. Not everyone likes cabbage, green peppers, calory etc. This recipe is not inflexible. You may substitute vegetables according to your taste. You may add any vegetables you like: asparagus, peas, corn, turnips, green beans, cauliflower, etc. Try to stay away from beans (lima, pinto, kidney, etc.), however, because they tend to be high in calories even though they are very good for you.
Beverages you may consume while on the program :
Water (flavoured with lemon/lime if desired).
Club Soda is OK.
Black Coffee. No cream or cream substitute. No sugar or sweetness.
Black Tea = Herb or Leaf.
Absolutely nothing else except the fruit juices which are part of day seven. No fruit juices before day seven.
How and Why It Works
Day One you are preparing your system for the upcoming programme. Your only source of nutrition is fresh or canned fruits. Fruits are nature's perfect food. They provide everything you could possibly want to sustain life except total balance and variety.
Day Two starts with a fix of complex carbo-hydrates coupled with an oil dose. This is taken in the morning for energy and balance. The rest of day two consists of vegetables which are virtually calorie free and provide essential nutrients and fibre.
Day Three eliminates the potato because you get your carbohydrates from the fruits. You system is now prepared to start burning excess pounds. You will still have cravings which should start to diminish by day four.
Day Four, bananas, milk and soup sound the strangest and least desirable. You're in for a surprise. You probably will not eat all the bananas allowed. But they are there for the potassium you have lost and the sodium you may have missed the past three days. You will notice a definite loss of desire for sweets. You will be surprised how easy this day will go.
Day Five, Beef and tomatoes. The beef is for iron and proteins, the tomatoes are for digestion and fibre. Lots and lots of water purifies your system. You should notice colourless urine today. Your allowance calls for the equivalent of five "quarter ponders". Do not feel you have to eat all this beef. You must eat the six tomatoes.
Day Six is similar to day five, Iron and proteins from beef, Vitamins and fibre from vegetables. By now your system is in a total weight loss inclination. There should be a noticeable difference in the way you look today, compared to day one.
Day Seven finished off the program like a good cigar used to finish off Victorian meals, except much healthier. You have your system under control and it should thank you for the flushing and cleaning you just gave it.

Exercising For a Lifetime
I started exercising about a month ago and now it is something that I look forward to doing. Volleyball season has started and I am the assistant coach. I jog five laps before practice when I am there. Exercising is something that I do and I really enjoy it. To be honest, I think I have been doing this consistently since the middle of September. There is a big difference in the way my clothes are fitting me. The jeans and pants aren't so tight and there is more room in the waist area. My face has even slimmed down. My goal is to be able to fit into a true 10, I think that would be 165 lbs. for me. Haven't been there in a long time. 10 years ago I was 24 years old, here I am 34, where did time go? What did I do with it? I don't want another 10 to go by and I am here where I am right now. Wow and I don't even say that word. My, my, my!
As for this exercise thing, I started by riding my bike trainer 5 minutes a day. Next, I moved up to 10 and 15 and so forth. I use my 10 lb. dumb bells to do some arm exercises. Leg lefts with the ball and squats with the weight or ball, it depends. I also started going to acupuncture and yoga once a week. That was very good for my overall body. Since volleyball doesn't end until December I can't do them anymore. I also sometimes do the stairs at the park. While in Atlanta at a conference, I used the stair stepper, elliptical, treadmill, and bike. It made me want my own personal gym.
I look forward to doing something daily, I do take a break every three days depending on how my mind or body feel. So this is something new to me, I haven't been here in a long time and it feels good.

Here I Go Again
It has been a long time coming. Haven't been here since June. That is ashame. Starting tomorrow things will be different. Turning 34 has been a challenge and an eye opener for me. Over the last few years, I haven't been proud of myself. My plan is to take one day at a time and continue to do right by my body.
At the acupuncturist, I was told that I need to lose a little weight because I have dead skin on the ball of my feet. She put the needles on the ball and sides of my feet. As soon as the needles were in my feet my entire body got extremely hot. She also put the needles in my neck for stress and energy. Truly, I feel better.
Even though I haven't been posting to the blog I am not to far off from my goals. Still wanted to be 165. Going to the acupuncturist has helped me to realize that I have to take some time out for myself. I rip and run all the time and never reward myself for the life that I live. All of that stops now.

Tomorrow during lunch I will eat spaghetti, I will get up and cook something for breakfast even if it is just some bacon and a boiled egg. Dinner will consist of rice with chicken and broccoli . Waking up will be at 6 am. This will give me a chance to ride my bike trainer for 10 minutes. My body is where I dwell and I will not let it fail me.
I have also made a list of things I need to get checked when I go to my personal physician. I find it strange that the doctor doesn't check you for everything whenever you have an appointment.
This time, I will take it slow and lose at least 4 lbs. a week. I know it can be done, it is always up to me.
Celebrations
Have more room in my jeans
Now, I will post here at least once a week to let you know my progress. I am tired of being over weight and I know I can do it.

Can I Really Lose Weight?
Weight: 181 lbs.
Down: 2 lbs.
That is the burning question. I know I can, but what seems to be the hold up? To be honest, I really can't say what the problem is. All I need to do is do what is best for me at this moment. What that is beats me.
All of the overeating has got to come to an end. Today starts the beginning of doing what is best for me health wise. No overeating, exercise, healthy choices all starts today. I can get this done along with getting the lien off of my credit report and obtaining my PhD. I can do it, I know I can.
I wrote out a schedule for exercise. Will do what I can today. Supposed to do a workout on Fit TV, walk the stairs, arm exercises, and stretch. Ok!
Food
3 sausage links and 1 scrambled egg
Me at 181, I will try to post pictures daily to see the weight loss. This is crazy! Nothing will change unless I want it to. That is what makes this so interesting, when will I finally be tired of being this way. Change must come, but when and at what expense?

Time and Time Again
Weight: 179 lbs.
Here I go again on my on! Been here several times since January and I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. What is it going to take? Yesterday, I thought about fasting. Maybe it was only a thought.
Food Yesterday
2 small cans of v8
Progresso chicken noodle soup
pieces of turkey (small)
brownie
2 slices of pepperoni pizza
If this would be considered a fast, so be it. Excitement should be one of my feelings, but I don't know if it is. Yes, I am down 2 lbs. Honestly, I was trying to go for 3, but that didn't work. Exercise is something that I haven't been doing. Time changes things. At the beginning of April I was sick and still coughing up stuff, so that is mainly why I haven't been exercising. Truthfully, I just haven't felt like it. Weight can be lost if I eat less calories. That is my plan. This morning I did 10 squats. What the afternoon has to offer as for exercise the day will have to bring tell.
I am tired and need a break. Spending time doing something physical is always a benefit. Sunday we went walking at the River Walk. That was relaxing and allowed me to get some type of exercise in.
Today is another day and I am not going to eat that much. There is an event that I must attend Thursday after next. I have a gown to wear, but if I can't fit it I will have to purchase another one. That is not in the budget. Trying hard to achieve this weight loss goal. It can be done, but I don't want to go to the extremes. I think I may be there already.

Down with Fat and Up with Hope
Weight: 181 lbs.
Blogs Purpose
This blog is supposed to be helping me, but I am not helping myself. Down with fat and up with hope is going to be my new phrase. There has to be some type of intervention. I am serious! What is it going to take for me to get this together. The answer is stay focused and don't lose sight of what I am really trying to do. This seems to be a repetitive thing for me. Will I ever get tired of losing (in this case gaining)?
Accountability
In my life, there has to be something that makes me be more accountable for my actions. I have said it before and I will say it again, it is so easy to let me down. Why is that so? I should be up on a pedestal looking high above and know that I can do anything that I put my mind too. It is not that easy. Today should be the day that I never look back. Get every aspect of my life in order and lose the weight. Ok, really trying to make those small steps. Purchased some V8. The small cans. This will be my breakfast.
It would be wrong for me to say that I am losing in every aspect of my life, but I am not. All other things look good. Also, the bad habits has me in a world of hurt. Not really that, but it sometimes gets out of control. Getting that together is another thing.
Weight loss for Me
Weight loss for me is something that I know I can do, it is just a matter of doing the right thing. Eating is a past time that I truly enjoy, but it has to be healthy eating. I am tall, but I don't have to be overweight. That is where I am today. Getting below 190 was a big deal for me. I got below 180, but it tends to go up and down. That seriously needs to stop! Again, I need to lose 16 lbs.
Fasting
This is drastic, but it has crossed my mind. Just going on a fast or something of those sorts. I need to do that for myself to cleanse my body of all of the impurities. It will also help me realize that food is something we need to sustain life, not for enjoyment purposes. If I do decide to fast, it will take much dedication. The fast will also clear my mind of all of the crap that is clogging up my thoughts. Clarity is needed! Fasting will not be easy, but the negative things will leave and open up a place of focus.
Success will that ever Be?
I get tired of not succeeding! Losing is such a hard thing to do, I can do it, but when will I get tired of going up and down. I get close, but never reach my goal weight! All I can do is shack my head. I will let you know what I decide to do as for the fast. It may not be a full fast, but something that will allow me to drink more and eat less.

All I can do is shack my head. I will let you know what I decide to do as for the fast. It may not be a full fast, but something that will allow me to drink more and eat less.
