Sustainability

So I binged over the weekend.  I started out as ok I get to have some of the stuff I missed while doing diet bet, but eh it was really a binge

3 donuts
3 sushi rolls
1 pint of ice cream (actually wasn't that bad but couldn't resist)
potatoes while I was out and an onion bloom

By sunday it wasn't so much a binge as just eating crap.  I gave myself a day before I got on the scale and I'm up 5 lbs. I also ate an entire thing of smoked salmon because I was hungry and didn't have anything prepped for dinner.  That was monday.

So yeah no smoked salmon in the house...blah. Its low carb, but too much salt.

I did food prep for the week, and no lingering need to eat crap. 

Anyway, I also don't think I'll be doing dietbet.  14 lbs in a month while doable, isn't sustainable for me.  I pretty much was doing anything to make goal and then kind of burnt out at the end.  It was a good jump start and I might do it again, but right now my goal is 8 lbs for the month. I think its alot more doable without making me crazy. I got on the scale and didnt feel like OMG  I gained 5 lbs. I knew I had cheated/binged and worked out.  There isn't this big pressure to lose it immediately like with dietbet.

I did join 2 challenges on 3fc, to help keep me accountable. 1 for exercise which I've been doing and one where I set my own goal weight for the month.  I'm not sure if its because there is no money involved, but I feel challenged without being overwhelmed.

Hoping the cheat weight will be gone 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...

335 Woo HOO

Posted on 3fc Well all week I have been praying for a 2lb (would put me at 339) loss which would put me in to the 330s. Weigh-in isn't until wed, but i got on the scale anyway....335...woo hoo. Make me much closer to the size I wanna be to buy summer clothes much more attainable. Well I can say it here. Next weigh in is March 14th. I would really like to be at 329 by then. My Official weigh-in isn't until Wednesday so I'll be playing the game with the scale until Wednesday morning. Also I am waiting for the time I get on the scale and nothing happens......blah...but trying to stay positive. Something else people would day the weight is falling off, but I worked this crap off. LOL

Ignoring people at work/ catching up on excercise

Well not that I look back since i last blogged I haven't been doing well, but not horrible either. I didn't work out Sun-Tues. and I have been out twice so i have one more time to go out this month and I know I am going to blow that so we'll see. I think the problem is I went away for the weekend and I wasn't carting food with me and I can't say I made good choices while I was away so I'll have to deal with that. Now that I am back home though I am doing better. I cooked last night really good curry chicken and broccoli. I ate the whole pot but I think I am only at most at 2000 for the day. I had a smartone and a danish and only water. I weight myself in eight days and really hoping I am under 325. Blah. I did Prevention 3-2-1 work out today for 35 min. I didn't do any of the ab stuff since getting up and down on the floor is a pain. I have a pain in my left knee but it seems to be better. I am 15 min from 200 min for the week which would put me back...
