Ahhh! Frustration!

I am so frustrated... with myself, with my choices, and most of all with my body! It seems to be a much easier choice to eat out and make bad decisions. I haven't really got much "workout" in for the last two days. I moved furniture for two hours yesterday in my *hot/ no AC* classroom and cleaned grafitti off the school windows. I guess that counts for something. Today, my parents and I took toddler fishing, which I did a lot of walking around. I just am having a tough time getting motivated to… Continue

Burn 435...eat pizza?

So hubby decided to order pizza while I was on my bike ride. So when I came home... hot and hungry, I decided against the soup and salad and ate pizza. I guess it will even out in the end. I just will use FP for the week. It has been a tough week while working and then being a little sick yesterday. So this is a pic of my ride... and food journal. …

Missed workout...

It was so hot yesterday and hubby worked until 11pm... that I missed my bike ride. In reality, I felt terribly nauseaous all day, began to wonder if the fertility treatment worked this month... We will find out in a coupe more days. I have eaten over points everyday this week. I just seem to be hungry... So today, I am kicking up the water to see if that helps! Going to check on garden and then to school. I will post more at lunch!

An Awesome ride

So in my attempt to pump up the exercise, I decided to go for a ride this morning. I was house sitting for my friend/boss and she lives only a mile or so away. I let the dogs out and then I decided that I wanted to go further. My total ride was like 5.19 miles. It felt longer, but really took me less than 45 minutes total time-- probably way less riding. I don't truely know what time I left, but the 4+ miles from K's house to Southgate and home took me about 22 minutes. I figure about 11mph. I c… Continue

WI- offically

So, since I do the WW thing at home sans meetings, I weigh in every Friday morning. Well, being 100 miles away from home with no scale was posing a challenge for the WI this week. My hubby brought the scale to me when he came down one day, so I was able to do the "peeking" first. M… Continue

Hello, Amy! Thank you for the advice. My doctor did give me a caloric value to stay under, so I will see what I can do with that.

I love your different goals for different weights. What a lovely idea to keep motivated. I hope you don't mind but I think I will borrow it. I need that kind of motivation, and gifts for myself because of weight loss might just do the trick!

That's even better. My family loves Chili's, so I am sure we will eat there sometime during our trip. I'm going to put all of the suggestions I am getting, so I will be ready. Hope you have a good day!

Thanks for the suggestions. We leave on vacation Friday, and I know we will eat out several times. I am trying to plan ahead, and it really helps to have some ideas ahead of time.

I am glad you are back Amy! I am starting to feel like the lone low carber! How have things been going?

Hi,thanks for adding me! I see we are close the same weight right now. Hope we end up on the same BL team. :) I could use a buddy with similiar goals for some motivation.

I know what you mean about gardening late...we started late LAST year and didn't get very good crops. This year started about a month earlier and so far it's good. Gotta be careful not to over water too, that was an issue last year I think.

I keep trying carrots with NO LUCK!...not sure what I am doing wrong. Trying celery this year and it looks good so far! Planted a salad mix that no one cares for though, not sure what to do with that now other than add it to store bought mixes that we like to use it up. Maybe I just cut it all and bring it to work for the gang here? hahaha
