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.


--Added later

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...

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...
