Enjoying the little victories

So things are moving right along. I get on the scale friday. I don't feel any lighter, but my body seems alot happier. Some of the issues was huffing and puffing up a small hill I have to work to work in the subway station, my ankles and feet swelling, back hurting, no energy. All of that has changed. Ankles have gone down, feet are good. Its even easier to put on sandals because they aren't so swollen. I can see the difference walking up steps. I mean I running, but I am not sitting wondering if my heart is ok or not.

Me eating for the most part has been pretty ok. My eating plan is eat like I have some damn sense.

So breakfast at home, which mean I'm not eating the really high calorie and expensive breakfasts I was. Right now there isn't anything I want to bring for lunch and I'm tired of frozen meals. So I have given myself 10 bucks a day to eat lunch, and preferably no fast food. So I think alot more about what I'm eating. I think I'll end up at the wholefoods buffet which had been the bane of my existence. I would always spend $20+. Can you say over eating...Anyway. With only $10 to spend I make better choices and it gives me to have a little more variety. I think one of my downfalls before was I stuck to eating the same things over and over again and got bored and then didn't know what to eat.

So when I get to work I guess I have it ingrained in my head that I'm supposed to eat, so I buy fruit and south beach bars to work that out. After 2 plums and a bar I'm usually satisfied enough till lunch.

There have been some bumps to the wagon. I went to the movies last night. I had a hagendaz ice cream bar and a hot dog. Also when I went to whole foods and hit $15. but since thats 10-15 less than usual AND I had chicken, and HEAL of broccolini and some macaroni.

Exercise is ok, I'm not pushing myself to goal here is to make sure I stick to a regular schedule DO something.

35 min excercise, WATP and weghts

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...

335 Woo HOO

Posted on 3fc Well all week I have been praying for a 2lb (would put me at 339) loss which would put me in to the 330s. Weigh-in isn't until wed, but i got on the scale anyway....335...woo hoo. Make me much closer to the size I wanna be to buy summer clothes much more attainable. Well I can say it here. Next weigh in is March 14th. I would really like to be at 329 by then. My Official weigh-in isn't until Wednesday so I'll be playing the game with the scale until Wednesday morning. Also I am waiting for the time I get on the scale and nothing happens......blah...but trying to stay positive. Something else people would day the weight is falling off, but I worked this crap off. LOL

Ignoring people at work/ catching up on excercise

Well not that I look back since i last blogged I haven't been doing well, but not horrible either. I didn't work out Sun-Tues. and I have been out twice so i have one more time to go out this month and I know I am going to blow that so we'll see. I think the problem is I went away for the weekend and I wasn't carting food with me and I can't say I made good choices while I was away so I'll have to deal with that. Now that I am back home though I am doing better. I cooked last night really good curry chicken and broccoli. I ate the whole pot but I think I am only at most at 2000 for the day. I had a smartone and a danish and only water. I weight myself in eight days and really hoping I am under 325. Blah. I did Prevention 3-2-1 work out today for 35 min. I didn't do any of the ab stuff since getting up and down on the floor is a pain. I have a pain in my left knee but it seems to be better. I am 15 min from 200 min for the week which would put me back...
