Death by Buffet, Tastless Mush, 23lb ego.

Well I am munching on bacon as I type this. Bad Venus...bad...not because it is bacon, but because it was a completely random trip to the whole food supper market to pick up sushi and ended up being my realization that I cannot be trusted around a buffet....one of those things i have learned. I also have realized if I don't have good stuff to eat I won't eat it. I will never be one of those people who is trying to lose weight and eats tasteless mush.

When I got to the buffet I just wanted to try everything, they only thing that stopped me from over doing it is I don't eat eggs and just about everything had egg in it, so I got bacon turkey and pork before of course I must taste both.... and some potatoes and baked cheesy grits....Yup the breakfast of champions. So no more wholefoods in the morning....

As for the food at home. I had one more light english muffin and I have come to realize I don't like light/low/no fat foods. Give me all the fat and I will eat it in moderation...unless its in a buffet of course then all bets are off. LOL

One other things, so I am 23 pounds down and really in the grand scheme of me losing weight it isn't alot, but I think my ego has gotten kinda big..cocky even... and I need to take it down. I haven't eaten "on plan" for most of the week, although I have stuck to IE. On plan meaning bringing food to work, not eating out and so on.

So refocusing. don't want 23 pounds to stop me from losing the rest.

Can't stop Won't stop

So I'm about 2 lbs away from my monthly goal.  I haven't worked out in about a week, but I have been on plan for 3 days after the visit to my parents. I've realized the most important part of losing weight is staying focused.  If you fall off the wagon get up. If you are tilted to the side, get straight, but keep going.  The worse thing you can do is stop trying.  Over all I only lost 2 lbs, but I recovered from the bad weekend and my period came so all the days I stayed on plan meant I didn't have this huge gain. Stupidly proud of myself. Something else weird happened this week. I usually drink ice coffee, but its pricey, so I bought starbucks pre-made ice coffee.  I ended up having this weird sugar headache.  I ate food, thinking I wasn't eating enough.  After 2 hours I had a pack of oreos and it went away after about 40 min. The next day I had no coffee and no issues.  It makes me think there is something with the starbucks coffee...

Wacky Scale, My Krptonite

Well I haven't posted in a while. Seems like I learn something new everyday. I went to my parents this weekend and just ate. I don't think I overate as much as I normally would have, but I ate more than I should have. I also had a few days where I went over my 2000 calories, but since I need 3000 to maintain my current weight I am still pretty ok. I kinda fell of the excercise wagon. I am trying to build up to Mon-Fri and weekendos off but just can't seem to get motivated to workout as soon as I get home. I have a part time job at night starting thursdays so we'll see what happens. I am guessing I am going to have to adjust to nights. So I weigh myself twice a month I know I have lost inches because the black jean that were once super tight even after I wore them a few times are now pretty lose. So thats night. But here is more proof the scale is wacky. Weighed myself last night 345. I didn't gain or lose. Weighed myself this morning after first bathroom t...
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...
