And not doing so well. I hopped on the scale a few weeks ago and it said 191. EEK. So I joined a second gym to not go to. And just yesterday, I bought an exercise bike. Spent way too much money on it. Let's hope it does more than just become an expensive clothes hanger.
Thank God. Away from the dreaded 180. Had a strawberry and cherry fruit smoothie this morning and am now enjoying a cup of caffeine free tea. Must pack for trip. Bringing strawberries and balsamic glaze to work today.I'm going to guess that there's no scale in the hotel I'm staying in, so probably no weight updates until Friday morning. (Although I will try to provide regular updates of what I'm
See I go from no posts in ages to three in one day. Given my obnoxious weight gain as of late, I took some drastic measures. I know there are people out there who will say, "Everything in moderation!" But here's the thing...what's more unhealthy...me eating a lot of fruit, or me weighing 180 lbs? UGGGHH.Breakfast: Two Golden Delicious applesLunch: Fruit salad. Fruit smoothie.Lunch: Cup-a-Soup.
Oh, I forgot to mention...one of my problems is that I have to go out to eat a lot for work and because of some groups I'm in. Like tonight, I'm supposed to go to this big wine tasting dinner. I feel like I need to say no to these things for a while. I just can't manage them until I'm down to 160 again. I don't mind 160. So here I go...about to send a cancellation email to the dinner organizer...
Words cannot express! And the scary part is that I've put on 6 lbs since I got back from a two week trip in late May. I had this feeling while I was away that I was constantly depriving myself. This was mainly because I couldn't control my own food. I had to eat what and where other people wanted. So when I got home, I treated myself to everything I REALLY wanted to eat. With dire consequences. (
Third scale. 172. How does this happen? How do I let this happen? I've worked out--HARD--every day since December 19. Obviously haven't been capturing all my food and drink though. So it's back to basics.Today:Breakfast: Fruit smoothie and some apple. 200 calories.
I have no idea what I weigh because I've been visiting my family since December 15th. But I've been going to the gym like crazy--6 straight days in a row--for pretty intense workouts. I said goodbye to my trainer--he moved back to Australia, sadly.I can tell you that photos taken of me at my friend's party on December 5th are really flattering. My face looks thinner, and a friend of mine even
I like new numbers. This morning, it's 164. This is exciting. However, it's also a bit depressing that over the last 30 days, I've only lost 4.5 lbs. I need to do a final push to be down to 160 by the time I go home for Christmas. (December 17th, so that's 12 days. )4 lbs in 12 days seems doable, until I look at my calendar:Tonight: Christmas partyTomorrow: Christmas lunchMonday: Christmas lunch
Haven't worked out since Tuesday though. And I continue to drink my calories.Breakfast: Hard-boiled egg and roasted tomato sandwich. 327 calories. Skinny latte. 100 calories.Lunch: Chinese food. Chicken and onions and rice. So let's say 500 calories.Dinner: Red wine. 400 calories. I know.
