Its been long time...I shouldn't have left you...

Well I haven't posted in a while, just been busy at work, my so called relationship is having issues and just tired. This week was my first week "on program" which mean eating right and excercising and I got my period. So I think for the first time I had PMS cravings that everyone else talks about and I never noticed. I think I never noticed because whatever the craving was I would satisfy it and that would be it. Really it wasn't that bad looking back, but it was annoying being in the middle of it.

I have been checking most of the foods I don't cook against calorie king, just to get an idea of where I am. I also check what calories I need to lose. Kinda shocked me to realize I was eating 3000+ calories a day. Right now I am doing 2000 or less, and not missing anything really. If I can stay about that. I should lose a poind a week. Thats the goal anyway. I really want the dimples in my thighs to go away. Would be really nice to be comfortable enough to wear shorts again.

I finally got away to my prevention fitness walk DVDs (walk fit, walk slim respectively). They are not walking DVDs. Thank goodness I did WATP first or I would have been pretty beat up. They are more beginnger aerobics with brisk walking. I guess in higher levels they jog instead. Anyway all that WATP came in handy. When I couldn't do something I walked to the beat of the music.

I have been doing the walk strong DVDs on mon, wed, and saturday and that has given me a good leg work out (beginner) so my knees have gotten much better. Who would have thought squats would help bad knees. I really need to get better sneakers the pronation on my left foot is a real problem.

I also ordered Yoga Booty Ballet. I wanted another toning video. This will be my last one for a while. I think I have a good mix at this point I won't get bored. Also I feel like until I can truly call myself an intermediate I want to learn and this got pretty good reviews on 3fc.

Ok.....that was a long post.



Below is a post from 3fc
Ok, I am not sure whats going on I think my body is adjusting to TOM and healthy eating. I have had more cravings in the last 2 days than the last 2 months.

So I am making a stand, no more little choclate candies.

My girlfriend bought some and put them in the candy dish. Normally I eat one every 2 weeks and forget about them any other time. I have eaten 8 of them today and refuse to eat anymore. I'm not hungry, and maybe my body needs sugar,but I think I want to be able to choose. I also know if someone was in the room with me I wo uldn't be eating so there is an element of sneaking here.

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...
