Made it!

Survived my day today and did a darn good job, too. There were even donuts in the lounge this morning and I did not partake. Go me!

Here we go again....

Back to square one. While I had decided to make a change and get back on track, I didn't change anything else. Like making sure I had dinners planned for the week and then taking the leftovers for lunch. Making sure there were enough healthy-ish snack choices around so that I could feel like I was having a treat without paying for it in points.

I had thought about holding off until after we are in our house: we are out there working late almost every night which often means a run through a drive thru and which most definately means not getting a workout in everyday. We have about a month until we are in the house. Have you seen Super-size Me? That is what can happen on a month long construction diet.

So I am going to have to get back on track, as much as possible, even if it just means I don't gain this month. I bought stuff for two crock-pot meals to finish out the week (already got one ready to go). I am also going to put together my lunches at night because I don't have time to in the morning. I am also going to put the spiritual part of my life back in order: daily prayer and scripture study. I did this when I first startd back in June and I know that it helped me with my weight goals.

Keep reading and commenting (genuinely) as it does help me stay accountable: I feel a great amount of guilt when I glance at this tab in my favorites bar; and I almost get sick when I look at the weight watchers tab. Here we go again...

It all started with the wiener wrap...

It was wiener wrap day in the cafeteria today. They are SO good. They make their own rolls to wrap with that are delicious. I was perhaps too excited when I heard the announcement this morning. So I haven't been exactly good; but not too bad either. I did get to work out and I bought a smaller size of jeans. Hoping to finish the week mostly on track so I will have to make the most of tomorrow and Saturday (our painting party day!).

Ummm...

I ate today. I ate a lot today. None of it was worth it. I don't really want to talk about it.

Routine

Not much to report today, which I consider good, while maybe being uninteresting. I feel like I have gotten back into a routine, which I need. Now if only I could get Jared on a sleep routine which could translate into an exercise routine for me...

Monday, Monday, Can't Trust that Day

I knew the scale would tell me a different story this morning. But I am not going to let that set me back. I had a good eating day today. That makes 3 in a row. Hopefully that means I am getting back on track. If only I could figure out the workout thing. If anyone has any suggestions I am open. The problem is not so much what to do but when to do it.

Third Times the Charm

It took 3 times on the scale this morning to believe what I was seeing. I was totally prepared to see a gain after the on again off again week I had. I was not prepared to see a LOSS of over 6 pounds. I was sure the scale was wrong so I stepped off to try again. Exact same number. I still was unsure. So after I had showered and was still wet, I tried again. The exact same number appeared. I'm still thinking it might have been a fluke and am expecting to see a higher number in the morning. But today is my Weight Watchers weigh day and today's weight is the one that I record so as of today, I have lost 49.2 pounds. This is the motivation I needed to continue.
