Ready for the holidays to end

So even though I only have 23 pounds to go, I'm having trouble staying motivated to get it done. Every time I see a friend from high school who has lost all their weight I get jealous and discouraged. I always seem to forget that I have made amazing progress and just need to stick with it. My diet has been screwed up ever since I went home for the holidays, I have got to fix it before I go home again and when I do I need to stick with my diet while I'm at home. Gonna drop my calories down really low, probably lower than I should which isn't healthy, but at this point I'm willing to try anything. Current weight: 143

good news

So I'm super excited I had to go buy a new pair of jeans yesterday because mine were falling off of me and I am now in a size 10 yay!!!! Only have 23 pounds and a few pant sizes until I reach my ultimate goal I cannot wait. The holidays are screwing me up a bit but haven't gained anything, but also haven't lost any but that will change when I get back to Colorado in a few days. At least until I come back to my families for Christmas.

New Healthy Start

Ok here lately I have been going about this weight loss thing in the wrong way, I know its wrong because it isnt healthy and plus any weight I lose I gain back soon after.

I have been trying to starve myself and yes it does make me lose weight, but also makes me sick and I feel horrible.  I'm not going to say that it didnt make me lose weight because that would be a lie, but i always seem to end up binge eating soon after i lose the weight because im starving.  So therefore all that weight i just lost comes right back and just ends up depressing me.

So New Plan:

1. Eat healthy, smaller(a lot smaller) portions
2. Eat less meat
3. Drink nothing but water and green tea(proven to help with weight loss)
4. Absolutely NO junk food
5. No eating before 9 am and no eating after 8 pm
6. Work out everyday at 6 am, until im too tired to continue
7. Stop thinking that this weight will come off overnight, because thats impossible
8. Keep a food journal, to know what i need to cut out of my diet
9. No eating out
10. Try a body detox, to help cleanse body
11. Drink a full glass of water before each meal to fill self up
