And the experiment continues....

So even after my last post the eating fest continued.  I did a cheat weighin (weighing in after working out and I was 350.  So I think I gained, but i have 6 days to try and get back to where I was, also my period is due any day now.


Since I did alot yesterday I went kinda of easy today 30 min kendall hogan 30 min cardio.  I worked up a sweat, but it wasn't as motivating as it once was.  I think its because I've done it so much and know the routine.  I also did just about all the 12 min abs I've been avoiding and realized its too much for me.  I'm going to switch to the chris freytag ab workout.

So I feel like my diet is a big scientific experiment.  I know after I workout I am ravenous.  So I had a carb heavy breakfast and a serving of the cabbage I made.  I was fine till i got to work then I had a napa cabbage salad (Yes to Feta, no to blue chesse).  I had 2 string cheeses and then lunch.  With lunch I had 32oz of water so I'm pretty full actually.  Usually I have something sweet after, but I'm too full.  Dinner will be no carbs.

I was reading someone's blog who works to have a correct ratio of carbs, protein and fat (I think),.  I can't see me doing that but I am starting to watch how many carbs I have everyday.

Also I am going to stick to IE, but attempt to enter what i'm eating into spark people (After I eat).  Since it tracks what I'm eating I'm going to see if I can stay about 100 carbs a day.  I know totally random, but we'll see.

Oh yeah I think the English muffins are on they're way out, but only on workout days.  I'm going to try and do without bread on non-workout days and see how I feel. 

Also the spark people website helped me realize, well that and I always felt thirsty, that I wasn't getting enough water.

So I'll be logging everything or close to it this week.  It will be guess

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...
