Goals - Don't go lower

Been an interesting week or so.



So I started my workout schedule last week and I did something to my right knee. When I would bend it, it hurt. Walking as a struggle, so rather than push through and potentially make it worse I just stayed off of it as much as possible.  I started back today..it was a struggle, but I got it done and I feel good.  I hopped on the scale after my workout and I'm 361...so I'm probablty 362 or 363.  I'll take that.  Eating wasn't horrible last week, just trying to focus on one meal at a time and make better choices.

The knee thing I'm pretty happened when Autumn was like go lower and  I was feeling  focused.  I went lower and blah.  This just says its ok to go at my own pace.  I lost a whole week pushing too far. 

Its still hot and humid so I didn't cook.  So this week is going to be salads (which I've been avoiding) and atkins shakes for dinner.

I have a 21 day challenge going and that's helping me stay away from the little cheats that keep stalling my process.


Goals
Stick to 21 day challenge rules - No cheesecake, no ahi tuna crisps, no hamburgers, no sushi, no alcohol no donuts,candy, muffins, and fried foods

salad for lunch mon-fri

salad or atkins shake for dinner.

current workout schedule

Its not the best eating plan, but I'd like to stay on plan for 5 days.  Friday night I'm going out for my sister's birthday.

So I'm in a good place....fingers crossed on doing well this week.

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...
