Not too shabby

Not gonna say I've been perfect but we had fast food the other night and I got salad (i ate about 10 of hobbies fries)

Tonight my kid offered to buy me fast food I declined and made eggs with spinach feta and tomato (oh my am I full too)

Now I did have a piece of chocolate and also caved and got a diet coke. But I would have to say my positives have been outweighing my negatives! I'll take it.

Oh yeah and down 3.6 pounds. Watch me!

Staying strong

It's PMS TIME and I've got a teenager doing especially dumb teenager things can we say stressed out?

I had my nacho Thursday for lunch can't give that up yet. But I had healthy breakfast and snacks and dinner

I bought like 5 pounds of cotton candy grapes at the fresh market mmmmmm.

I need to incorporate movement into my day especially since I sit all day at work.

Going on a walk this evening 8pm gonna do it.

Well that went badly

That last attempt didn't work. I don't even want to see what I said I weighed because I know it's more now than it was then....

About a week ago I said I was starting over, again. Not sure why this seems so hard. Not only do I know what to do but I've DONE IT before. Should be a piece of cake....mmmmm cake.

I don't plan on blogging daily but I want to record my victories and my woes and maybe somewhere down the line it will inspire someone, maybe posting will keep me on track. Maybe I'll never blog anything besides this blog. Time will tell.

All I know is I am 5 foot 1 inch and a week ago I weighed 189.4 pounds. I'm unhealthy. I'm tired. I'm sore. And I feel uncomfortable. I want better for myself. I deserve it.

So starting last week I spoke with a friend. I joined an online community and I got protein powder stuff for breakfasts. My goal is to eat cleaner more unprocessed foods more often than bad ones.

So I did well last week. Oddly enough at my desk I eat mainly healthy options it's home where I lose it.

I did have nacho Thursday but minus the chips. I had 3 bites of a funnel cake at the fireworks and today I ate 1/4 of an icecrrsl blizzard.

I've also had healthy shakes for breakfast salads for lunches and nuts or cheese for snacks.

Not perfect but an improvement for sure.

Day 4

Well I didn't wake up early to hit the gym.... I forgot breakfast.  I had to run to another town after work. ..and stopped for fast food... I got a subway club and baked chips... I splurged and got some strawberry kiwi tea and it was SO SWEET I didn't have even a quarter of it.

I had  A lot to do today. ..but after I got kids from school I went to the gym. GO ME.

I had a ladies night out... Margarita and a bean tostada dish...and a white russian.

Later a serving of Hershey kisses.

Not horrible.  Not fantastic.  Still no diet coke. Still motivated.

Day 2

Well I didn't wake up and go to the gym... but my inital plan was 3x a week so I still got this. Sadly I'm sore from my 6 mile bike ride yesterday...

I remembered breakfast. Had a healthy lunch and added extra veggies into my dinner. I've had about 30 Oz of water and 30 Oz unsweetened tea.

So far so good. I was very close to buying a diet coke at the store...not even because I wanted one. .. just out of habit. Sad right?

Well that sucks

Every time I think to blog again....I read the previous and see I am even heavier....and that I was motivated for about a day...maybe two and then motivated me falls off the planet....

So once again I am starting over. Once again I feel fat and ugly and just blah.

I'm starting small. Eat better. smaller portions of the bad stuff. Drink water. Hit up that place called the gym 3x a week.

I wanted to join something online but can't find a place I feel like I fit in...so it's just me on here talking to myself .

The negative today....182.8 good god. I'm going to say 40 pounds down will make me feel good... for now though I'm focused on being out of 180. Baby steps.

The positive today.  I woke early. Worked out 30 min 6 miles on the bike and I've drank well over 64 Oz of water and stayed within my calorie range.

Growing not shrinking!

Ugh. Like at what point to I stop the insanity!?

I'm a little over 180 last I looked. I feel fat. My jeans are almost impossible to zip/button.

What can I do?  Eat less, move more. I know its possible...I've accomplished it before.

Today went okay. Progress. Not perfection.

B: 2 cups coffee with creamer, maple brown sugar oatmeal.
L: 1/4 cup Mac salad 1/4 cup cottage cheese cucumber carrots and tsp sunflower seeds.
S:cherries
D:chicken fried steak, fried potatoes and corn
S:jello with fruit

Best part of my day?!  I Went to THE GYM!  30 min on the bike 160 calories 6 miles.  My heart rate stayed around 130-150
