IE vs Applebees..IE Wins

Well applebees is one of my favorite places to eat...I have have absolutely no idea why, but it is....so this weekend i went and I wanted the riblets and chicken platter....2000 Calories, but I wanted it and I hadn't had the boneless buffalo wings in a while, easily 700 calories if not more.

Here is the nice thing, 3/4 of the buffalo wings and all the chicken fingers are sitting in a take out bad in my living room (soon to be moved to my fridge).

I ate what I wanted of the boneless buffalo wings and left the rest. I ate the fried and riblets and left the rest. No soda just water for the whole meal. Didn't have any desire for dessert.

This is kinda of a big deal for me, because it means I've changed. I realized I was eating easily 3000-4000 calories when I went for one meal. I would have a couple glasses of some sugary drink, and appetizer, full meal, and a dessert....and eat all of it. Sometimes this was all I ate for the day, but still...

Anyway, kinda of nice to know I am ok with the IE at applebees...now if I can just conquer my parents house.

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...

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...

Jan has been a good month

So I made a monthly resolution with a girlfriend to do 100 min of excercise a week. I've stuck to it and I left my debit card at home so I actually ate what I was supposed to when I was at work. Things seem to be ok I'm at my highest in a weight in a while, but I'm not beating myself up. So I was 348, as of 1/22/2010 before that I was 351 So I am doing ok and I feel like I am back on track. normally I would say ok I did 100 min I need to move it up to 120 or something else or whatever. Nope, we're going to sit a 100 min and see how I feel. Some other things have happened. My love life has settled down and my warcraft playing has cut down . So seems like I need to be in a good place to lose weight. So Monday Cardio inferno 25 min mens fitness 20 min Wednesday Cardio Over drive 41 min mens fitness 20 min Total 106 min I could stop now, but I really want to work out fri and sat. and I'll weigh in Sat and the goal is to just be lower than the previous week.
