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.

Can't stop Won't stop

So I'm about 2 lbs away from my monthly goal.  I haven't worked out in about a week, but I have been on plan for 3 days after the visit to my parents. I've realized the most important part of losing weight is staying focused.  If you fall off the wagon get up. If you are tilted to the side, get straight, but keep going.  The worse thing you can do is stop trying.  Over all I only lost 2 lbs, but I recovered from the bad weekend and my period came so all the days I stayed on plan meant I didn't have this huge gain. Stupidly proud of myself. Something else weird happened this week. I usually drink ice coffee, but its pricey, so I bought starbucks pre-made ice coffee.  I ended up having this weird sugar headache.  I ate food, thinking I wasn't eating enough.  After 2 hours I had a pack of oreos and it went away after about 40 min. The next day I had no coffee and no issues.  It makes me think there is something with the starbucks coffee...

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...

Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...
