Weigh In

Skipping my meeting tonight.  My son has a wrestling match, and since I refuse to eat before I get weighed that means I would be having dinner at about 8:00.  So I weighed in at home.  173.4, so that's what?  2lbs since last week?  Not bad.  Not excellent, but I shall take it!  So I have bounced back from my gain last week, and I am going to try and do better next week!

Getting Better

I worked out today!  Yes, it is true.  I did 18 minutes of Zumba this morning, and then it got to be time to make dinner.  I figured since I had to turn the pork chops every 15 minutes anyway I would just stay in the kitchen and walk in place.  I did that for 30 minutes, so in all I worked out 48 minutes today.  Not too bad, I have this feeling of accomplishment.  So that's it, just another quickie update.

12/12 Update

So I've been doing really well.  Friday I did have a little bit of a splurge, but I only went 8 points over.  I did exercise today.  I did the first 2 circuits in SIWW, and then I let the dvd play and I walked in place the rest of the time.  So that's good, right?  I'm finding it harder and harder to stay on point (and to find the will to exercise).  My goal is to do SIWW M/W/F and T/Th do WATP.  We'll see how that goes.  See you Thurs!

Weigh In

Up .4, so I am now 175.2.  That's okay, well not really, but it could be a lot worse.  I didn't do so hot as I previously mentioned, and it's less than half a pound, so it's not like a HUGE set back.  WW introduced new Points Plus 2012, so I am getting 3 less Points than I was previously.  Again, not a big deal since I was struggling to eat that much most of the time.  We shall see how I do.  I am going to my mom's today while the kids are in school to make Christmas cookies, and it is going to take everything I have to not sample any, but I can do this!  Until next time....

It Hurts!!

So remember how yesterday I said I only did 2 circuits out of 3 so I wouldn't be sore today?  Yeah, turns out 2 was overdoing it a touch.  I can walk okay, but it hurts to bend down and to sit.  Maybe I will try something simple, like WATP, and just walk even when she does kicks and stuff.  So yeah, that's about it.

Update

So this past weekend was amazing!  311 on Friday night, then a last minute decision to see them again on Saturday, and I am a very happy girl!!  However, the whole eating thing, eh, could have been a lot worse, but it still wasn't great.  Friday I had cereal for breakfast, a grilled cheese (made with whole wheat rducd calori bread, fat free cheese and butter spray) for lunch, and dinner at the Hard Rock.  I picked something I thought would be healthy, a chicken club with no mayo.  Turns out that sucker is a whopping 800+ calories.  I only ate half of the actual sandwich though.  I ate half, then took the chicken off the 2nd half and ate that.  I figured it was just grilled chicken and I would need to energy.  Then I had 6 beers and on the way home my friend and I split a 10 piece nugget from BK.  But I go nuts at these things and I normally dance around enough to burn off most of what I consumed.


Saturday all I had was a cup of coffee and a WW mac & cheese (which is not good hangover food, fyi) before heading out.  We had dinner at this Irish pub, I got a bbq chicken wrap, and again only ate half. 
I have no idea how many calories or points or whatever, hopefullt it wasn't too bad.  And I only had one beer.  Before leaving however, we were both in desperate need of caffeine.  So we went to this coffee shop in the casino and I had a mocha bomb, which was probably like 400 calories but whatever, it was a 3 hour ride home for the 2nd night in a row, I needed it.

So Sunday I was right back on track, eating like I should eat.  And this morning I found the drive to workout.  I did 2/3 of Jillian Michaels Shred It With Weights (SIWW).  I probably could have finished it, but my legs were starting to feel like jello, and I don't want an excuse to not workout tomorrow.  So that's it.  Will check back later.

Weigh In

I went to WW yesterday kinda nervous.  Last week I had the bar crawl and Thanksgiving, I didn't exactly work out, so I braced myself thinking this probably won't be good.  And I was right.  It wasn't good.  It was freaking great!!  174.8!!!  I lost what?  4.5 since last week?  Something like that.  I am down 6.8 from two weeks ago which was my last "official" weigh in.  So that's pretty awesome.  I am one month in and 13.8lbs down.  Considering I have been a huge slacker in the exercise department not too shabby!  So that's it.  Gotta get the kids ready for school and I have a concert to attend tonight with my best friend (and probably my only reader!).
