Every Little bit helps

So I was in bed this morning thinking i did my abs, but i don't feel anything....well low and behold i got out of bed and stretched and my abs yeah thats what you think. My arms also chimed in. So I was going to do
Shortcuts to be weight loss, which is 3 10 min segments, but it seemed to have alot of weight work. I did the first one which is compound exercise without weights and felt li ke I did something....anything this one is good for the days when I don't wanna do 2 seperate DVDs, but I wanna do something.

I added the 15 I did, and now I am pretty much 2 workouts shy of my goal...woo hoo

Eating was ok, had egg weight omlets with lots of stuff, 2 fiber bars and 2 burrito from baja fresh, but I took them out of their tortillas and make it a bowl which I think probably halved the calories since I know the tortialla is about 300-500 calories. I didn't feel full afterwards, just satisfied....nice..

So something I want to try in decmber is a points system. I want to work on 1) not buying food during the week, or spending $5.00 or less on a work day 2) not eating sheilas food when we go to lunch 3) limiting myself to 4 kisses (candy) everyday. Everyday I manage to achive it would be a point and maybe the points would be yards of fabric I am allowed to buy.

so 1 pt=12inches of fabic so 1 yard would be 3 pts. so I could by 3o yards in a month.

So we'll start this December 1. Wish me Luck

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...

Random Thoughts

So Part of my IE is staying under 2000 calories. usually I do this without thinking about it..I think it is a hold over from my dieting days and it works, so I keep it around. So anyway. It occured to me, that there are people in countries who are so called "less advanced" than the US and they are thinner and healthier than us and they have no idea what a calorie is, how many carbs they are eating or any of other many measurements we have around. I was also thinking that there was a time in this country when people had no idea what a calories was and there didn't seem to be an obesity epidemic until we got all educated....
