My trip home, finally a NSV

Post on 3fc

Well I went to visit my family this weekend and much better than I had been doing. Went to the movie saturday had a soda, no popcorn, hot dog or nachos. Soda was all I wanted.

Next day went to my grandmothers and I was hungry, wanted jamaican food, but couldn't get it. We ended up getting soul food and I gave away most of my chicken (had 3 pieces only at 1) and threw away most of my yams.

Had some soup my mother made and didn't eat any of the meatloaf. I love meatloaf but wasn't in the mood for it.

So one of my biggest hurdles is past me (phew).
Back home and still on track.

NSV this weekend also
we went to the movies to see Stomp the yard and the escalator was broken. I was with my 3 cousins and sister and they of course we a little winded but ok. I managed to keep up with them and just when I thought I couldn't do it anymore it was over.

I have been doing squats which I was afraid to do because of knees pain. ALL knee pain is gone. Before it had stopped only during walking, but anything with a deep bend (getting up from a low chair, or getting out of the car) was hell on my knees. I have tested it a few times and seems like it is Finally ok.

Like I have said even though my primary goal is to lose weight all the other benefits make it worth it and if I only lose a pound a month I will continue because I love feeling the way I do.

Went food shopping today and went over what I meant to spend, but it all translates into less money eating out so much more worth it.

Since I am a computer geek I got very detailed with everything I am tracking.

Daily, Weekly, and MOnthly Miles, Minutes spent lifting weights, Minutes spent doing on WATP workouts, lbs lost and money saved eating in.

I don't keep track of how many calories because of IE and I don't wanna be paranoid about everything. I do look at the ingredients of what I buy (trying to avoid the HFCS) as well as calories content. No more muffin surprises.

1lb

Well this week end been a little wacky. I didn't eat anything I planned to eat. I didn't over eat and I think I made good choices all week. I only exercised once this week which I'm not entirely happy with, but I'm ok with that too. Back at it tomorrow (Saturday). So anyway. I know I haven't had the big 3-4 weight loss I had been having so I jumped on the scale. I'm down a pound( to 333) . Its nice because I haven't gained, but I would like to be firmly in the 320s by the end of the month. I have managed to stick to my lent goals with the exception of the 2 beef meals I've had. I will admit Applebees has been calling and it was rough avoiding the scallops with bacon but I'm ok. Funny who I can ignore the Ben and Jerry's and not the scallops. I wonder if it will get easier. Happy that I am not forming any new attachments with food. I do have a craving for hooter, but I think their salads (if you can call it that, more like salad dressi...

Darn you to Heck Indian Food.

So yesterday I had lunch with my best friend.  She's smaller than me, but still heavy.  We went out to an Indian Buffet and I should have just ordered something from the menu, but I didn't want to spend to much since we were splitting the bill and had the buffet BAD MOVE.  It was all creamy sauce stuff which really begs to be poured over rice.  I was trying to pour it over the cauliflower dish, but that had potatoes in it.  I ended up just saying eff it and eating the cauliflower with a little potatoe.  Then my flawles logic *heavy sarcasm* said well if I'mma cheat go ahead and have the rice too.  I then had like 4 glasses of water.  I don't feel like I ate alot, the problem is I ate because of self peer pressure. I think of course wanted to punish myself and was going to make myself to a really hard workout today, but thought.  Ok I don't really want to do it...and I don't want to NOT workout because I don't want to do the work out.  ...

Wacky Scale, My Krptonite

Well I haven't posted in a while. Seems like I learn something new everyday. I went to my parents this weekend and just ate. I don't think I overate as much as I normally would have, but I ate more than I should have. I also had a few days where I went over my 2000 calories, but since I need 3000 to maintain my current weight I am still pretty ok. I kinda fell of the excercise wagon. I am trying to build up to Mon-Fri and weekendos off but just can't seem to get motivated to workout as soon as I get home. I have a part time job at night starting thursdays so we'll see what happens. I am guessing I am going to have to adjust to nights. So I weigh myself twice a month I know I have lost inches because the black jean that were once super tight even after I wore them a few times are now pretty lose. So thats night. But here is more proof the scale is wacky. Weighed myself last night 345. I didn't gain or lose. Weighed myself this morning after first bathroom t...
