Waiting for the whoosh....bump TOM

I actually wasn't intending to blog, but I think I needed to vent a little so here I am. 



First the bad, my period started monday and while I haven't had a repeat of death by donut I've had a few cheats (frozen yogurt, 2 mojitos, 2 hot dogs, 1 beer) This isn't in one sitting but over the course of this week.  I didn't really overeat just ate thing I shouldn't have. I haven't weighed myself because I wasn't interested in the emotional rollarcoaster that would have been, but my ankles are currently the size of grapefruit...blah.  When Aunt flo has officially left time I'll weigh a day or so after that  The question is usually after my period if over there is a 3-5 lbs loss, but I've been cheating so there is the potential for a gain.




The good..I'm sticking to the 21 day Fix.  I did a warm up and cool down I found on youtube because I was tired of the one Autumn did EVERYDAY.  That being said I'm really loving 21DF.  Next week is the last week.  i'm supposed to double up on exercise workout, but meh...I don't see that happening.

I doublt I'll be anywhere near the 340s by the end of this month, so no gym bag, but to keep the momentum and since I know I'll finish the 21 day fix I ordered T25.  I realized while I liked the 21 day fix..I don't want to work out 6 days a week forever.  So my august challenge it to work out twice a day 3-4 days a week.   The other days I can do pilates or nothing. While I loved 21DF I missed my pilates.  21DF has pilates, but its one day and I feel like I'd like a beginner pilates workout like I've been doing and I usually feel relaxed after.  I also want to make sure I'm doing cardio and strength and 2 workouts a day should be more than enough.  I don't have any major plans in august so there shouldn't be any interruptions.

NSV - I have more energy and I think my boobs shrunk a little...I have huge boobs so I'm ok with this.  It feels like my bras are fitting better. I think i've lost some inches.  I don't measure, but my clothes just feel better.

Weirdness...no matter what workout I do it takes 24 hours before I feel sour.  So yesterday I did Upper fix, today I did lower fix, but my arms and back are what are sore...Eh just an observation. 

I have a party this weekend, fingers crossed I don't go overboard.

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...

Random Thoughts

So Part of my IE is staying under 2000 calories. usually I do this without thinking about it..I think it is a hold over from my dieting days and it works, so I keep it around. So anyway. It occured to me, that there are people in countries who are so called "less advanced" than the US and they are thinner and healthier than us and they have no idea what a calorie is, how many carbs they are eating or any of other many measurements we have around. I was also thinking that there was a time in this country when people had no idea what a calories was and there didn't seem to be an obesity epidemic until we got all educated....
