You start out with the best intentions: to be healthy, to fit in your jeans. A few days of fruits of veggies, a few days of exercise. Then a piece of cake or chocolate. It's ok, it's just one piece. Surely, one piece won't hurt you because you've cut a couple hundred calories or ran off a couple hundred calories. But that one piece tasted so good. You know, another couple hundred calories from that ice cream won't hurt. You know what would go great with that ice cream? Chocolate sauce and whippe…

I've been going to a workshop this whole week and they've had a whole bunch of snacks in the back the whole time (chips, donuts, chocolate, soda pop, some good fruit), but I've resisted until today. I was able to resist all but grapes the first 2 days, but today I just kept wanting some of that food back there. I am trying to figure out why!
Was it the slight lack of sleep? Was it the increased stress of getting ready to start a new school year? Was is the fact that I had less safe snacks along…

whew! It's been relatively cool the last two days, and today started out looking like it might follow suite but it is HOT now... and I didn't really keep my windows closed and have the fans going because I wasn't expecting it! Darn.
Anyway... great day once again today. Didn't make it to the gym because "Tiny Gym" didn't want my green-nosed-coughing little angel... so I'm hoping she might be better by tomorrow. Friday we're heading to my parents to do insane wedding prep... my little sis is get…

I lost weight on vacation and I hit the 50 pound milestone--even went past it! I lost 3.4 pounds over the last 2 weeks, including my vacation week, putting my total at 51.2 pounds lost!!! This also means I met my second 10% goal. Maybe I will reach Onederland by Labor Day afterall...I'm going to keep trying, that's for sure!
I had already decided my reward would be new eye shadow, so my sister and I headed over to Sephora after WW. They had the eyeshadow kit I wanted, but I didn't find it until…

It's weird, when I have something planned outside of the house I tend to be really hungry. So anyways, the kids had a birthday party yesterday at 3:30PM (yes a bday party during the week, it was cheaper where my girlfriend had it- kids had a great time!!) so I knew I wanted a piece of cake. Nothing big, but a piece of cake. I've really found that if I know about events and plan to use…

Mmmmm... nothing beats the smell of a savoury summer BBQ. I'm quite proud of myself as I portioned out everything on my plate first instead of just eating piece by piece as it became ready right off the BBQ. I made sure I ate more roasted veggies (I made them myself! Hehe... cherry tomatoes, onions, zucchini, peppers... all on a skewer) and salad than I did meat. I was also really good with meat as I only had chicken breast and one spicy weiner (that one is probably not so good as I'm sure it's…

Man, she is great! 10 yrs younger than me and a world of knowledge and coping mechanisms. We touched on some very serious issues that really do not relate to my weight issue but can relate to my motivation and momentum.
Also, had another team workout, it was good. Weights, some step aerobics. Next week we do a spin class, I can't wait!!

12 weeks ago I was a size 22. I do most of my shopping at Target, Old Navy Plus size online, and Torrid. Last week I went to Target and I was down to a size 18 in pants. Today I went to Old Navy online hoping that I would fit into the store in the clothes and not have to order online.
Well I went to the Old navy at the mall and made my way to the pants section …I picked out 2 pairs of capri’s and one pair of jean/trouser pants. The capris both fit one was a lot more flattering than the other…bu…

I weighed in this morning and I am still at 164. I wish I had a loss, but I didn't gain like I thought I was going to. Besides, I still have that 25 - 30 lbs. behind me, right? Some goals I have to set for myself as far a food goes are:
1. drink more water- I measured the volume of a tumbler I drink out of and it holds 3 - 8 oz. servings, so I put a blank white label on the side of the glass and started to tick off each full glass I have consumed during the day - I have had one full cup so far a…

The verdict is in. I've gained, yet another week. I'm up 1.4 pounds. I really am half surprised that I keep gaining though. The week I got down to 212, I wondered if it was a hoax because just the night before I was like 214. I dunno, at any rate...I'm not 212. I've got 4 pounds to go to get under 210. It's time to refocus.
Goals for the week:
-No eating out unless I do something like Subway
-The kitchen closes from 10 pm-8 am. I'm starting to have problems again, snacking late at night and ear…

My scale reading at home this morning was 199.8! Woo hoo! What a pleasant surprise it was when I saw that number .
I know it's not official unless it shows up next Monday. And my home scale
DOES weigh me about a pound to 1 1/2 pounds lighter than the one at my meeting.
Even so, I can now see how my hard work is (finally!) paying off — and that'll make it easier to stay OP for the next several days.
I also took another set of measurements yesterday. There weren't too many changes, unfor…

You know- we talk and talk about how much a little number on the scale doesn't matter... and how it's really about how we feel, if we're being healthy, if we're loving ourselves... and then when I see that silly little number I lose all resolve. I've only been weighing myself every Wednesday--- 2 weeks ago I was 155, 1 week ago I was 153 and this week I'm 149! How the heck did that happen?

I have been so caught up in life that I have not posted in a couple of days. I have been thinking about it, if that counts. So Saturday, I took the kids to a indoor fun park and let them play for a couple of hours. We ordered pizza, bad for me. I couldn't resist and had 3 slices. It sure tasted good. I haven't had pizza in so long. Then we got home I talked my 5 year old into going on a run with me. I wanted to try and go 4 miles. So she hopped on her bike and off we went. For the most part she…

Tomarrow is the big day. I am excited yet nervous. I can't wait to cross off "run a 5K" goal from my list. It feels so good to accomplish something that you have worked so hard for.
I haven't wrote all week so I will catch you up. Sunday night we went and hit softballs at the park with some of my brothers and their families. I have not hit a softball in probably 20 years. I was never good at it and I am still not good. I think I might of hit one ball past the pitcher's mound. But I had fun and…

Today was a great day at the gym. I did intervals of running and speed walking on the treadmill and some weight lifting afterwards. Of course, I didn't forget to stretch!!!! The funny thing is about my relationship with the gym is that I actually like going to the gym and having a good work out. I just hate the part before I actually decide to go to the gym... I guess it's kind of what they say about sex... once you get into it, you're loving it.
I had great ambitions to go to the gym everyday…

So, I've been gone for a while. My plan of choice is weight watchers and back in May (around the time a stopped posting) my family went to our very first camping trip in a pop-up. The cost of stocking and getting everything ready for this trip lead me to make the decision that maybe I would skip that weeks meeting. I paid monthly and was scheduled to pay again that week around $100.00 for both my husband and I for the month so instead we didn't weigh in and used the money for our trip.
So, looki…

So, last night I had no intentions of exercising. I had errands to run, plus I did the wellness walk at work for 1/2 hour at lunch, so felt like I didn't have to. Until my sister called, that is. So, I went to the gym with her last night and just followed her around her workout. 20 min crosstrainer, 40 min weights, 20 min stationary bike, and 10 min stairmaster later, we were done. Pretty good for a girl who wasn't going to exercise, hmm?
Today, I'll probably just do something small at home. I'…

Whew! I lost that 1.2 lb gain from last week, plus a tad more, for a loss of 1.6 lbs. Thank God! Only 9.2 lbs left until I hit my first goal of 10% (22 lbs) gone. I would love to see that gone by the end of the month (my target date), but realistically, I know that's not going to happen. I have been averaging just over 1 lb loses per week. I'm going to try my best to get in an hour of exercise every day this week, and maybe, just maybe, I will see more than just the typical 1 lb loss next Wednes…

No, not McDonald's. I'm loving this Wendie Plan. I enjoy having my high point days (I'm a girl who can always eat, so that's never a problem) and I'm never starving on my low-point days. I have to admit, I was really skeptical of the whole idea of 'tricking' your metabolism, but maybe my body just needs extra calories some days for repair? (I exercise, so I could buy that, I guess.)
I know I probably shouldn't step on the scale every day, but I do. It's my way of staying accountable to myself.…

Last night was weigh-in, and I already knew the news wasn't going to be great (admittedly, I'm a daily weigher). I have been discouraged because I've worked really hard to have a great week and didn't have much to show for it. The weigh-in reflected that - a 0.6 lb. loss. Hey, I'll take it, though. After all, it
is a loss! And...I
did go to my WI (no avoidance issues goin' on here!)
As I scanned back over the past five weeks in my weigh-in booklet (four weeks OP), the thing…

good morning good moning good morning!
as some of you know i am doing WW on my own in an effort to lose 40 pounds. and for those of you who do not know (i had some questions about this yesterday) WW is a points system. depending on your height age and lifestyle (secretary as ossosped to a construction worker) you are alloted a number of points. there are NO foodss or drinks that are "forbidden". each food or drink is assigned a point value, which is easily found on the WW slide rule. it's basic…

I know that you are aware by now that I am a daily weigher :~P . I was SO super excited this morning to see that number. It also caused some really odd emotions for me. I know the scale goes up and down each day, and as I have said before, I don't let it bother me. Being a daily weigher has taught me so much and made me so much more aware so I generally don't freak out by the number on the scale. This morning though I just sat (with my coffee) and thought about how badly I do not want that numbe…

I actually thought of that on my own...and even more impressive, actually did it too!!! I pulled off completing the entire 5 mile walk with 5 pound hand weights. I have to admit that it was tough towards mile 4, but I just tried to ignore the urge to quit and instead just modified that arm movements a little so it was less intense.

I started running this week. It's been great. I'm not a couch potato so my approach to it has been a little more advanced than that.
The advice I'm using on running comes from different runners I met through the years. I kept them in my heart and I'm using them now. These might be simple but for someone who's never ran before, they are really working:

any plan last week. I don't recall counting at all because I have just been too busy. I will definitely take the loss but I was sooo expecting a gain. I did eat fairly ok regardless of my lack of counting. I guess it does really help to change your lifestyle and not just change your habits for a few weeks to work on a diet.

I'll start with the lightbulb moment: I was working tonight, totally stressed out and too busy to leave my desk. But since I didn't have anything with me to snack on, I didn't eat anything.
Normally, when I go back to work after dinner, I take a few things with me to eat while I'm there. But tonight I didn't ... thus I didn't have any snacks.
Is it really that easy? Surely not! But it did work tonight, so I'll be glad for that.

Eureka's Castle? It was this weirdo puppet show on years ago, but every time I say the word "Eureka!" I think of it. Strange. Anyone? Bueller? Just me then. Not surprising.
Today was freaking fabulous. It could have been one of many things, but I'm going to go through the things I tried today and repeat those tomorrow and hope for another day of success!

I actually exercised today. I'm so proud of my self. I walked on the tread mill for an hour then I did a work out tape for 30 mins. I was so tired after wards though. As for the eating...I read the comments I'm trying to eat around 1,200 calories a day unfortunately I'm the only person in the house who's on a diet so the house mainly has high calorie items. Luckly we have salad :). How do you deal with trying to lose weight when everyone else around you is snacking on the good stuff?! Continue

snack at work- steamed carrots (1), milk (2)
Dinner- Ultimate chicken grill (Wendy's) w/out bun!!! (2.5), small chilli (4)
So, came very close to daily goal of 22 points!!! Used 3 flex points...not so bad for working a late shift. I may or may not use 3 more tonight...we'll see!!!
Flex points: 11/35
I am sooo excited about my new Wendy's find. Who knew a bun could add so many points?

I was watching my almost 4 and 2.5 yr old little girls playing today. they were playing vacation but first they were headed to the gym. Sarah was just running, she said she had a long run and Bella the 2 yr old was going to run and then swim, she said.
Now that is a good influence. Think to yourselves, those of you with kids. If they were to imitate your daily practices what would the do???
I'm glad mine are having fun with exercise.

I know I already posted earlier today, but I wanted to leave my food journal for today. It has been hard since I need some healthy groceries, but I'm managing. I am no where near my points. I know that can be bad, but as long as I'm not hungry, right? Eh. It's only 6:30 pm and I am SO ready for bed.

I am in a rut. I have not been exercising and eating right when I want to. Everyday I say that tomorrow I am going back to the gym, & then I sleep late. All of my weight loss goals this year have passed me by. Please help!!!

I didn't get much sleep last night, and in the past when I've been really tired, I end up binging on comfort foods. But today was different! I still have 10pts. left for supper, which I am planning to use 6, and have room left for a piece of pineapple angel delight cake later. I stayed busy today cleaning the house and running errands, also playing with DS quite a bit. Didn't make it on the treadmill, but plan on doing that in the morning. Now the hard part is going to be this evening, I've got…
