Well here here we go.

So I gained a pound.  I can't think I'm eating 3000+ calories as hungry as I am. Also the weird thing is I know I"ll drop it over the weekend

I was getting a little upset, but I know I can drop it over the weekend without going through alot.

So I've decided to eliminate my eating out at all during the week.  I'll be buying english muffins, lean cuisine, and prepared breakfast for the week and just cooking dinner. I'm a little grumpy, but I can count calories exactly.  I think I am eating too many meals where I am guessing and while they aren't filling me up they must be higher in calories than I think. 

I think it also helped ot look back and my old blog entries....again its a work in progress.  I am wondering if the egg white breakfat I buy everyday is the culprit, the margarita, ....hmmm

ok so lets think about this I gained 1lb.  so it isn't like I over ate alot.  I think there are things I am eating here and there that are causing the problem.  I

I think I feel sort of like a failure because I've been eating mostly my own food. 

So it could be a couple things.  I had ate out 3 meals,  and I guestimate how many calories my own food is.   I am analyzing the recipes, but maybe thats enough.  I think that bothers me, but at this point whats more important?  That I be righr or that I lose weight.  So I am going to swallow my pride.  I don't think I will care if the devilish scale with just move down, lol.

so no meal out today, and no ordering my 10lb goal prize until I'm back to 350.  this makes me even grumpier, but it is what it is.

Focused.

Quick Recap

Well I am ashamed it has been this long since I posted. I got down to 306 after much not eating and too much exercising, but after the trip to Jamaica I haven't gotten back in the groove of things. I think alot of that has to do with issues with the Ex. Those may not be settled, but i am not as emotionally invested as I won't was. With IE I was able to stay at 320 or under. I am 312 now, and focused once again. I am not nearly as strict as I was, which might also explain why I haven't gotten under 300. Anyway....Thats where I am at now. Will try and write more later.

Finding Joy in the Little Changes

So it's taken me 2 months to lose 4 lbs.  I know people are are gonna ready that and be like dude you suck. There are a couple of things to note: When  I started 2 months ago I was 359 and then the week after I went up to 363. I checked my spreadsheet and I haven't been 355 or lower in 4 years.  I've been struggling in the 360s for YEARS !!!!!! I've been in the 350s for a couple of weeks with a mostly steady decline I'm not struggling with eating, and working out is doable. In terms of non scale victories.  I can eat salad. It isn't the end of the world and honestly when I'm out and about it takes the weight of having to figure out what to eat. I don't feel the need to eat EVERYTHING on my plate. I don't eat what I don't want.  ( We will ignore the cream puff I had yesterday) I have more energy.  I don't come home and veg doing nothing until bed time.  I mean I do it sometimes, but if I need to do something I am more lik...

Avoiding Vacation Sticker Shock and Rebounding

Back from Miami. I have come to realize women are awesome and can form great bonds, but they can also be full of drama for no reason.  I had a great time and definitely want to go back. The "rules" for my trip away were no pasta, rice or potoatoes.  I think I had rice or potatoes with most of my meals.  I didn't go overboard, no binging or huge portions.  Then there was the drinking.  I haven't really drank in a while...so I didn't go overboard, but I drank my fair share. Drinks at Wet Willies in Miami My ankles were not the biggest I've seen, but definitely swollen.  I decided when I got back no scale.  I don't need that kind of negativity in my life. When I got back it was a struggle to get up and workout.  It almost felt like the first couple of weeks. Also doing things that had gotten easier felt like a big of a struggle. Tuesday I got on the scale and I was 359.0.  I am stupidly happy I was in the 350s.  I'm als...
