Attack of the Sugar Monster/Summer Heat








That is an exact recreation of me...or my inner me.  I'm not sure what happened.  Its too early for PMS, but I have been on my on sugar binge for the last couple of days.  I am usually not much of a sweet person, but it has been an issue.

Sunday I have 4 of the tiny hagen daz ice cream.  It amounts to about a scoop of ice cream when you add them all together.  Today I had another sugar craving and had two pack of cookies.  Add on to that I didn't work out. My house was hot and I turn into a big ole slug when its hot.

I also didn't cook...

I am currently not wining.

I'm down overall for the month so I haven't done much damage, but I need to focus. 

I joined the June exercise challenge on 3FC and I have one last pilates session to do.  I also didn't workout over the weekend..

I"m not winning SMH

So I'll knock that out tomorrow morning

Fingers crossed the craving goes away and I'll be sleep with the A/C on tonight.

On the upside my clothes are fitting better to me even with the slug heat laziness I have more energy.

This weekend if the fourth of July weekend, so it will be interested how things go...I'll be visiting family and right now I don't really have a plan.  I usually gain 5 or so pounds when I visit. Blah so we'll see.  The one thing keeping my motivated is I have the potention to be out of the 350s by the end of July....

Lets see if that will help keep the sugar monster at bay


later.....

So, I left work on time, and as soon as I hit the door I started cooking.

Currently finishing up spaghetti squash with ground turkey and pesto.

I also made coffee.. its the most expensive part of breakfast so trying to bring my own.

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.  ...
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...
