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.

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...
Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...
