The Diet

I was remembering the actual name of my blog yesterday and think I've forgotten many of my goals from the beginning of the year. I would still like to lose 10lbs but it's really hard. My Dad since the summer has lost 40lbs, and he's looking so much better. He's been apart of the Berstein diet which I think is fantastic when you're a diabetic and have so much to lose. So my question to myself is if he can lose 40lb why can't I get rid of at least 5lb. I know I don't look like I need to lose weight but I just don't want to ever lose control. I don't want to feel like I'm at a place were I can't manage myself anymore. This year I'll be spending Christmas in Hawaii which means during the holiday season when traditionally you eat the most I'll be anticipating sitting in a bikini for 2 weeks. I think it's going to be really weird being somewhere warm, usually our family heads to Whistler and everyone heads up the mountain for some snowboarding or skiing. You see these are appropriate winter sports because if you have a little bit of extra fat on your body it keeps you warm and pads your bum when you fall. Okay enough talk, it's off to the gym :)
