Been a while, lots to tell

Well it has been a while since I posted. Between no internet at home and being sick just haven' t been able to get a post out. Basically Last month I gained and last the same 3 pounds last month. I did end up at 329. WOO HOO. I've been sick for about a week. A direct result of kissing my ex not boyfriend (i'll explain later).

I didn't make my 800 min goal...not even close. I came it at 602 min, so REALLY focused about making my goal this month. So much so that I was obsessing about it while I was sick, although I did force myself to sit out 3 days. Back at it today and while I am not a 100 percent I did ok. I ate the way I felt like eating which included ramen noodles for some reason and managed to get down to 322. Wondering if this is temporary because I was sick or will I keep it off when I feel better. We'll see. So I am 3 lbs away from a major goal of 319. Next weigh in is 4 days away. I don't see losing 3 lbs in that time,although I secretly hope I do. I do see losing that plus more by the end of the month. I can't even fathom it.

Also I am finally able to fit into some clothes I haven't been able to wear in the last 5-8 years. I also have the unhappy realization that when I started i was probably a soild size 30 and a 28 in stretch clothes. So I am just getting into my fitted 26/28 clothes. I do think I can get down to a 24 or 22 by my trip.

Working out is pretty ok. I think I am kinda tired of the prevention fitness. Not in the same way I can't tolerate seeing Leslie sanson, just in a I need a change, so looking for something different. Also not sure if I mentioned it or not, but way back when I started I bought 2 DVDS with skinny chicks that was way above my level. Well since i needed a change I pulled them out and I can do them again. WOO HOO.

I think that catches everything up.

Quick Recap

Well I am ashamed it has been this long since I posted. I got down to 306 after much not eating and too much exercising, but after the trip to Jamaica I haven't gotten back in the groove of things. I think alot of that has to do with issues with the Ex. Those may not be settled, but i am not as emotionally invested as I won't was. With IE I was able to stay at 320 or under. I am 312 now, and focused once again. I am not nearly as strict as I was, which might also explain why I haven't gotten under 300. Anyway....Thats where I am at now. Will try and write more later.

Finding Joy in the Little Changes

So it's taken me 2 months to lose 4 lbs.  I know people are are gonna ready that and be like dude you suck. There are a couple of things to note: When  I started 2 months ago I was 359 and then the week after I went up to 363. I checked my spreadsheet and I haven't been 355 or lower in 4 years.  I've been struggling in the 360s for YEARS !!!!!! I've been in the 350s for a couple of weeks with a mostly steady decline I'm not struggling with eating, and working out is doable. In terms of non scale victories.  I can eat salad. It isn't the end of the world and honestly when I'm out and about it takes the weight of having to figure out what to eat. I don't feel the need to eat EVERYTHING on my plate. I don't eat what I don't want.  ( We will ignore the cream puff I had yesterday) I have more energy.  I don't come home and veg doing nothing until bed time.  I mean I do it sometimes, but if I need to do something I am more lik...

Avoiding Vacation Sticker Shock and Rebounding

Back from Miami. I have come to realize women are awesome and can form great bonds, but they can also be full of drama for no reason.  I had a great time and definitely want to go back. The "rules" for my trip away were no pasta, rice or potoatoes.  I think I had rice or potatoes with most of my meals.  I didn't go overboard, no binging or huge portions.  Then there was the drinking.  I haven't really drank in a while...so I didn't go overboard, but I drank my fair share. Drinks at Wet Willies in Miami My ankles were not the biggest I've seen, but definitely swollen.  I decided when I got back no scale.  I don't need that kind of negativity in my life. When I got back it was a struggle to get up and workout.  It almost felt like the first couple of weeks. Also doing things that had gotten easier felt like a big of a struggle. Tuesday I got on the scale and I was 359.0.  I am stupidly happy I was in the 350s.  I'm als...
