Interesting day

I played WoW again today. I was actually sick to my stomach logging in game and being online. I know it was from thinking of seeing the person who cut me to the quick so easily and effortlessly. Thankfully I didn't have to deal with that.

Now I don't think I can ever really go back though.

Tomorrow should be an interesting weigh-in. I did not do as well this weekend as I wanted, at least when it comes to eating. I did have a pretty good workout this morning though, I think due to my being upset about WoW.

Thanksgiving week (can't believe I'm going home that long!) will be hard. I know that I will come back having gained some weight, because I won't be at the gym, and there will be lots of tempting food around me. I am going to do my best though! It's all I can ever do. :)

The weekend commeth

Time of eating doom! I am going to do my best again, as this week I've pretty much been stagnant in weight. Back to where I was before last weekend (lol) but I'm still getting healthier.

I know the cardio is good for me! It was nice enough today to go for a walk outside. Man, going up that hill on the way back home is killer.

I have some cleaning to do tonight, so that should distract me a little bit. Doing the women's expo thing tomorrow; need to make sure I get to the gym beforehand.

A not so productive week :(

Well, this week didn't turn out as well as planned. I think my weigh in one morning was off, and due to not being able to work out and going out to eat with a friend, my weight is actually the same as it was on Sunday.

I'm close to 340 though, and my goal is to get there this weekend.

I know that I can do it, I also know that it will just take time. Hopefully being home over the holiday week will also not sabotage my healthy living too much.

Need to think about how to work out well there.

Close! And a day of snacking (grr!)

This morning when I weighed in, I was closer than I thought to 10 pounds lost! It is my first mini goal, and I'm so excited to reach it.

However, I snacked like mad today, Trader Joe's wasabi peas are evil! I suppose they are not that bad for me, but I also had mini three musketeers and too much chocolate at home.

I made a healthified version of my chicken enchiladas - they turned out good, but next time I won't go with the low sodium soup, just the low fat.

My workout at the gym was good; I pumped up the speed 0.1 mph on the treadmill. My foot was slightly sore by the time I got to the elliptical, but tomorrow I will be resting as I have Meals on Wheels and am headed to Jeremy's afterward.

Early bedtime for me today!

Weekend update

Well, the weekend went better than I thought! I was about to lose slightly on Friday, maintained on Saturday, and I got to the gym today.

I had a great time with my friend, though her life is so strange I have a hard time understanding it sometimes. Just so different from anything that I know.

I interacted a little (texting) with one of the catalysts for my lifestyle change. Still stings and hurts a little. Maybe this next weekend I'll have time to blog about it.

This week I start Meals on Wheels, so every other Tuesday will start to be a late night for working out. I'm not too worried about it though, because I know that I will still be going.

I'm getting close to 10 pounds lost - small milestones are the way to go. :) I'm hoping at Christmas some of my weight loss will be noticeable to my family.

Once I hit the 10 pounds, I may start transferring money into a new account to build up savings for either a trip or something more substantial, like a ring.

I count the weekend as a success!

The weekend!

Ugh! Weekends! Not a good time for me lifestyle wise. I can't get to the gym before it closes on Friday, so generally this has been my day off. However I have company this weekend, and don't think that I'll be able to get to the gym either tomorrow or Sunday. Well, Sunday is a possibility, but I'm still not sure.

I am really going to try and do well with my eating though, because I don't want to regain too much weight over the weekend.

I'm proud to say today at work that one of my friends asked if I'd lost any weight. She may have just been trying to flatter or encourage me though. I think the real test will be when I am home for the holidays.

Still meaning to blog about the main reasons for this, I promise myself I'll get to them soon.

Glee returns!

Hooray! Love this show so just a quick blog post during commercial.

Gym went well today; I am making progress slowly but surely. I suppose that is the only way to go now, and I will make my goal eventually. Losing an entire person is going to take time, that's for sure!

Talked to a friend from WoW last night, I do miss it, but I know I made the right decision for me. There was just too much pain and hurt each time I logged into game.

Drinking some peppermint honeybush blend tea - yum! Tea is for sure one of my treats. Will be getting more this weekend hopefully. I think soon I will set a reward for myself for a mini-goal. I can't decide if it will be time based or pound based.

Glee returns! *poof*
