My trip home, finally a NSV

Post on 3fc

Well I went to visit my family this weekend and much better than I had been doing. Went to the movie saturday had a soda, no popcorn, hot dog or nachos. Soda was all I wanted.

Next day went to my grandmothers and I was hungry, wanted jamaican food, but couldn't get it. We ended up getting soul food and I gave away most of my chicken (had 3 pieces only at 1) and threw away most of my yams.

Had some soup my mother made and didn't eat any of the meatloaf. I love meatloaf but wasn't in the mood for it.

So one of my biggest hurdles is past me (phew).
Back home and still on track.

NSV this weekend also
we went to the movies to see Stomp the yard and the escalator was broken. I was with my 3 cousins and sister and they of course we a little winded but ok. I managed to keep up with them and just when I thought I couldn't do it anymore it was over.

I have been doing squats which I was afraid to do because of knees pain. ALL knee pain is gone. Before it had stopped only during walking, but anything with a deep bend (getting up from a low chair, or getting out of the car) was hell on my knees. I have tested it a few times and seems like it is Finally ok.

Like I have said even though my primary goal is to lose weight all the other benefits make it worth it and if I only lose a pound a month I will continue because I love feeling the way I do.

Went food shopping today and went over what I meant to spend, but it all translates into less money eating out so much more worth it.

Since I am a computer geek I got very detailed with everything I am tracking.

Daily, Weekly, and MOnthly Miles, Minutes spent lifting weights, Minutes spent doing on WATP workouts, lbs lost and money saved eating in.

I don't keep track of how many calories because of IE and I don't wanna be paranoid about everything. I do look at the ingredients of what I buy (trying to avoid the HFCS) as well as calories content. No more muffin surprises.

1lb

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...

335 Woo HOO

Posted on 3fc Well all week I have been praying for a 2lb (would put me at 339) loss which would put me in to the 330s. Weigh-in isn't until wed, but i got on the scale anyway....335...woo hoo. Make me much closer to the size I wanna be to buy summer clothes much more attainable. Well I can say it here. Next weigh in is March 14th. I would really like to be at 329 by then. My Official weigh-in isn't until Wednesday so I'll be playing the game with the scale until Wednesday morning. Also I am waiting for the time I get on the scale and nothing happens......blah...but trying to stay positive. Something else people would day the weight is falling off, but I worked this crap off. LOL

Ignoring people at work/ catching up on excercise

Well not that I look back since i last blogged I haven't been doing well, but not horrible either. I didn't work out Sun-Tues. and I have been out twice so i have one more time to go out this month and I know I am going to blow that so we'll see. I think the problem is I went away for the weekend and I wasn't carting food with me and I can't say I made good choices while I was away so I'll have to deal with that. Now that I am back home though I am doing better. I cooked last night really good curry chicken and broccoli. I ate the whole pot but I think I am only at most at 2000 for the day. I had a smartone and a danish and only water. I weight myself in eight days and really hoping I am under 325. Blah. I did Prevention 3-2-1 work out today for 35 min. I didn't do any of the ab stuff since getting up and down on the floor is a pain. I have a pain in my left knee but it seems to be better. I am 15 min from 200 min for the week which would put me back...
