The Law of Averages/The lesser of 2 evils

So I had a bad day at work yesterday and I ended up staying late and we get a free meal when we do that (yeah you can see where I am going with this). I was hungry but all I had in my bag was 2 grapefruits and a 100 cal snack which didn't interest me at all. So I was thinking about ordering, but ended up get a bag of chips out of the vending machine (150 cal) I was ok and then I got home and ate dinner.

So when I got home from my bad day I decided to get on the scale to see where I am at. I figured if I wasn't down no point in spoiling a good day when I had a perfectly good bad one today.

So I got down and I was 320 (5/8/2008). So since May 2 (7 days) I've lost 5 lbs and which I can't say I was a strict in my dieting it is working. I think it is more due to the addition of weight in some way with every work out. Next weigh in is May 15th so wish me luck.

So on to the averages part. I weighed myself last night and I was 320 I got up this morning and peed and passed gas (sorry I had to take it there) and I was still 320. so my scale can store 5 different weight profiles so weighed my I weighed myseld again and I was 319.8. woo hoo next time 320 (boo hiss) so 3 times I was 319.8 and the other I was 320 so we're going with 319. Woo HOO.

Another reason I got on the scale was I have to go to my parents and the downward momentum will make me more motived to stay on plan.

I did watp power mile and a new DVD the firm super sculpt. Didn't really care for it. Will write more about it another time. (30 min of excercise)

I know it is isn't alot but considering every friday I stay in bed and don't work out again until monday I think it is a good thing.

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...

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...

Darn you to Heck Indian Food.

So yesterday I had lunch with my best friend.  She's smaller than me, but still heavy.  We went out to an Indian Buffet and I should have just ordered something from the menu, but I didn't want to spend to much since we were splitting the bill and had the buffet BAD MOVE.  It was all creamy sauce stuff which really begs to be poured over rice.  I was trying to pour it over the cauliflower dish, but that had potatoes in it.  I ended up just saying eff it and eating the cauliflower with a little potatoe.  Then my flawles logic *heavy sarcasm* said well if I'mma cheat go ahead and have the rice too.  I then had like 4 glasses of water.  I don't feel like I ate alot, the problem is I ate because of self peer pressure. I think of course wanted to punish myself and was going to make myself to a really hard workout today, but thought.  Ok I don't really want to do it...and I don't want to NOT workout because I don't want to do the work out.  ...
