Well I haven't posted in a while, Work has not been fun, so pretty busy.

Also I added a few links.

Eating has been ok, I think I have some left over low carb brainwashing on the brain because I have been unconciously avoiding breads. Also I think there is a difference between eating till you're not hungry, eating till you're satisfied and eating till you're full. I was unconciously doing the first only to end up walking around hungry for most of the day. So I did some adjusting and now I have something carby in the morning with milk.

Have been exploring more vegetables. I have hated spinach pretty much all my life, but after eating it with Inidian food a while ago I realized it was just the way it was prepared. I made it last night with garlic, olive oil and some cilantro (also playing with spices) and I loved it.

Someone posted a recipe for hummus so going to try it and add that with some whole wheat pita as a snack (something other than fruit would be nice).

Excercise has been ok. I added the weights. Realizing lunges and squats are actually helping my knees...thinking about buying a stability ball and need to pick up a yoga mat.

extremely tired of walk away the pounds so trying to ween myself off of them, bougt some prevention magazine DVDs and will be trying those.

So First weigh-in for the month and between now and then I have dinner with a girlfriend (the one who likes to offer me her left overs) and an overnight to my parents who seem to love to order out, and generally don't eat well....

Wish me luck.

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...

Reading through my Blog/ Learning more about me

So I was looking for distraction from the vending machine monster and I found a 100 calorie snack ( i need to start carrying those again) and realized I was 312 lbs back in April. :-(, but I think the good thing is I am back at 312 and will soon be lower. I also learned spring and summer are bad times for me and I need to learn to modify my exercise plan during the summer. I think I felt like if I didn't feel like working out I couldn't do anything. I should have done maybe 30 min or something...We'll see I also noticed I am slightly scale obsessed, but like I posted before the scale has been who I judge myself and right now I WANT to be under 300lbs. So between the 100 cal snack and reading 3fc and the blog I am ok. Now home to a bowl full of mixed vegetables ( lol and I am actually looking forward to it)

Repeating Mistakes/ To fibit not to fitbit

LOL once I start blogging I can't stop. So I'm in the exercise groove...I've been here before..the weight is coming off.  I'm eating right, feeling good..and then...I do too much, get frustrated and binge and then quit...sigh So I started posting on 3 fat chicks again.  I felt like I need an outlet for things I was feeling without judgement and I like reading about other people struggles so I don't feel alone.  I am avoiding any challenges and any group posts.  The posts where everyone already knows everyone so you post but no one responds because they don't really know you...blah... The reality is I don't do well on challenges and it stops becoming about weight loss and feeling good and more about "winning" nothing..because there is no actual prize.  If I win yeah..but often I "lose" and feel bad and then begins a downward spiral into feeling like a failure.  Weirdly this is also the reason I never got into counting carbs or cal...
