That's right! Today is the day I start my diet. I got on the scale this morning to find that since Ella was born I have actually put on weight! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
I don't know why I got it in my head that if I ate junk food and nothing healthy that it wouldn't affect me. Anyway, there is a diet that is very successful if you do it right. It is extremely hard to follow. The good thing about the diet is that you can you as much as you want until 7pm. The bad thing that it is of only specific things. For example: in the morning you can only have fruit! You must have at least 2 pieces before noon but you can have as much as you want! At noon you are allowed 1 concentrate food. Now what that means is that you can have ONE THING. You cannot have a ham sandwich you can have the Ham or the bread. You can't have a chicken caesar salad. You can have the chicken, the bacon, or the croutons. The only good news that accompanies that is that you can have as much of that one food as you want. If you choose bread you can eat a whole loaf if you want. You much have fruit and/or veggies to go with it though. Then in the afternoon you can only have fruit and veggies. Again as much as you want. Then a dinner 1 concentrate food (again, as much as you want with fruit and/or veggies). The only other conditions are 8 glasses of water a day, no eating anything after 7pm, and 30 mins of exercise daily. Believe me it is really tough I did it before and in 1 week I lost 12 pounds.
Now the best thing about this diet is that Saturday and Sunday are free days. You can eat whatever you want when you want!!! Only rules for those days are that you still have to drink 8 glasses of water, 30 mins exercise, and no eating after 7pm. So I decided to start on a Thursday so that I didn't have to go too long before Saturday came.
Now anyone reading this I don't want to get any comments saying "you're not fat" or "don't be silly". I want only positive encouragement!! This is something I need to do do feel good about myself on the outside (and fit into my clothes again!!) I used to be a size zero and now I'm a size 14!! I am not trying to achieve the impossible. I would like to be a size 7/8.

Awesome! You just jumpstarted me! Last year during the summer I was a 16! And during our move I lost about 15 pounds and fit into a 12. Then, slowly this year I have lost 10 more and am in a 10!! That for me is a HUGE accomplishment, but...I really want about 20 more pounds off! I want to weigh in at 130 and fit into a 7/8.(mostly because I am going back to visit where we used to live for July) So, I have the 20-30 min walk everyday, but I need to up the stakes. Maybe this diet will be easier if we do it together...I will have to re-read your post. Let me know how you do today. I will start, too.
