Well my modified version of the 28 day diet seems to have helped me break through into the 330s.  i'm 335 this morning.  My modification is basically atkins induction and I allow some sweets every now and again.

I am trying to stick to working out 3 days a week, but it hasn't been happened.  I usually fall off one day a week.  The upside is my workouts are harder so am going more when I do work out.

My 28 days ends Aug 6th, so my very hesitant goal is to get into the 320s by then...take a break for a week and the back for another 28 days.  My summer goal was 330.  I'm going to change that to 320 by the monday after memorial day.

Something else while I am low carbing it.  I am using Ie for the stuff I technically cant eat on the phase and it has been working.  I'm not down as much as everyone else (they're average is about 10 lbs in a week, i'm at 5), but I'm happier and it seems like something I can maintain.

I also went back to the IE group on 3fatchicks, between my friends, my weightloss group on FB and the IE group on 3 fatchicks I have a great support net.

Life is good right now.

p.s. some nsv

knees don't hurt almost at all
more energy
heels are easier to walk in
and I have ankles again. My ankles were pretty much constantly swollen and only have sleeping at night did they go down...only to go right back up again during the course of the day


In a good place.

Staying on Track even when cheating.

Usually when I post there is a overall point or idea I'm trying to express.  This is just a catchup post.  Last week I only worked out once.  Part of that was due to working late and just not being able to get it together and part was Friday waking up and being heavier than I thought I should be.  In the end I realized I'm still in the mid 350s, and didn't sky rocket up tot he 360s.  I didn't binge and totally screw my progress so I'm happy. So I do want to list my cheats this weekend. I had a party weekend and I cheated, but it was pretty controlled.  Friday I had a parfait from my usual salad spot.  Thai chili wings from the restaurant at the hotel.  Saturday Fish Tacos and Thai chili wings (yes, I really liked them, lol). Sunday Cheesy potatos and half a waffle for breakfast.  I ate in addition to this stuff, but it was on plan. I was starting to get into the mindset that I need to workout harder and longer and whenever I start doing that it work agains

Doing ok

Only did the second cheerleader video can't find belly butt and thighs, so I might do that tonight. cardio overdrive 40 min, I thought it was really only 20 something. So I'm good for right now. Eating has been pretty good. I'll get on the scale saturday morning. Something I realized I'm never going to be as focused as when I first started this journey, which is probably ok since I couldn't maintain that forever...same food over and over again ...blah... Yesterday I had a busy day and wanted to go out and buy food even though I had brough lunch. I stayed in the office and ate my rice and carrots. Something else in NY they have the calories on everything, so the choclate crossiant that I had brainwashed myself into believe it was 200 Calories is more like 400+ with a class of milk that about 600 calories for breakfast. So i realized I could have an english muffin, milk and saugage (from home) and be just as fine....so even less eating out. I don't want to kno

Getting old

So yesterday was a pretty ok day, It all went down hill when I ate my salad for lunch.  In literally the last year I've become allergic to tree nuts,not peanuts.  I'm not a big nut person in general, but yesterday I had a salad with pesto checking in it.  I got itchy.  My co-worker realized the pesto probably had pine nuts in it. So they gave me some children's benedryl..I think I was better off being slightly itchy.  In fact I'm sure I was better off.  For literally the rest of the day I just couldn't seem to wake up.  I went home and at 9. I just crashed. and that was children's benedryl.  I think I've only felt like that after doing lots of shots at a dive bar.  I might need this for my next party. Anyway I woke up today, with two slightly swollen stiff knees so no workout.  I had done 2 days in a row, so I"m ok with the day off.  Tomorrow instead of whatever my hybrid schedule her I'll do 21 day fix upper fix and piyo upper bod
