I will not let the scale control Me

So yesterday once again I just KNEW I had lost like 20 lbs...ok I'm exaggerating, but you get the idea. Anyway so stupidly I got on the scale at night after eating. Bonehead move.  I was 357.  I cried and then at 2 low fat puddings.  Then it occurred to me that in fact I was a bonehead and there should be some kind of loss in the morning.

Got up this morning 354 after I worked out 353. I am claming the 353 for today.  So I lost the weight I gained.  I would like it to be more but Happy it isn't higher.

So changes for next week.  Making my own breakfast and only 1 piece of bread to go with it.  No more wholefoods.  I think I did ok, but I think I have issues with what they are putting in it.

Cooking
Brussell Sprouts
Collard green
Broccoli (for my roommate)

Greek Turkey patties
Wings (my lunch)
some other meat.
Next weigh in is Friday.  I am one lb short of my 8lb goal for the month...I am not goign to make next month 9 lbs, just try and focus on another 8 lbs.(345)

30 min with kendal hogan.  didn't want to work out, but have to say by the time the warmup was done I was motivated.  I didn't do anything else because i think my ankle needs a break.

So since I actually put in Oct 1 for the end of my workout.  I am taking 20 min to finish off my 500 min goal and 10 min towards my new Oct Goal.

No workout tomorrow and swimming Sunday.

Oh yeah and it is getting way easier to say no to stuff. woo hoo.

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...
