Venting...not about the group weightloss.

I said I wouldn't post again until I was in the 350s, but I need to vent and I realize I am not a good group weightloss person.

Weightloss..has been pretty ok. From Sept to Jan I just ate whatever...got up to 375.....and i've been bobing arounf the 360s due to too much hanging out and enjoyment of food (damn you oh so lovely sushi).

I got focused and then hurt my knee, but ate pretty ok while I was unable to workout on my knee.  I'm at 365 as of the beginning of April. I'm waiting for my period to be over to get on the scale again.

So thats the recap...now for the vent....I am in a pretty awesome FB group, but with all things you aren't going agree with everyone.  I installed myfitnesspal to help keep a lil more honest about what i'm eating and it has been a little bit of an eye opener about how much sodium I'm taking in.  Somethings like my fried egges are alil high..but I had a  steak for the first time since Feb??? (I gave up beef for lent) and it was like a billion milligrams of sodium...ok maybe not a billion...only a million...

ANYWAY..

I posted as a vent and someone posted if you make you're own food you control you're sodium..and i'm sure it wasn't meant with the snark I added to hit in my head..but HELLLLLO I cooked the steak at home...anyway so here I am being petty and hermty in my own blog.

Now that that is over with I do love my fitnesspal.  I still eat intuitively....and I enter what i ate AFTER i eat it.  So after I wanted something to eat....soI got 2 packs of oreos...I ate one...waited a bit...and put the other pack in my desk drawer....I also was finally able to let go of the second sausage I was eating for breakfast...It was a mental thing..I just liked have 2...they aren't necessay and I felt ok just having one.

Its baby steps...so I feel alittle bit better.  I'll be staying out of the group for a while (yayyy twitter)...

Another followup..I got a fitbit..which I didn't need..but between that and myfitnesspal I'm more motivated to workout than I was before...lets see how this goes.

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

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

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
