I’ll admit it – I have not been as committed this month. December is just a crazy time to focus on anything, especially losing weight. That being said, when I stepped on the scale yesterday, it said 125.6 ! I did a little happy dance. I really wanted to see 125 again this year. So,...
I am so mad at myself. This last week should have been a losing week for me. I exercised well and I ate well…….but then I made brownies, and those are a weakness of mine. The problem with making them is that there are always leftovers and they don’t seem to tempt anyone else in...
So November was kind of a blur. Our Disneyland trip totally threw off my groove. I didn’t eat as carefully as I had planned, and came home a few pounds heavier. I hit it hard when I got home so I could lose that weight, and I ended the month exactly where I started. December...
I am feeling pretty good about my progress so far. On one hand, I feel like I am making good (but slow) progress, which hopefully means the weight I’m losing will stay off. On the other hand, I’d like to be rockin’ like some of you are. This month will be a little challenging because...
I’ve eaten really crappy this week. Out to Chili’s, ordered pizza, leftover pizza, scone from Great Harvest, 2 pieces of Halloween candy. When I get busy, I tend to make poor food choices. So I’m recommitting for the last 2 days of the month. I’ll be exercising today & tomorrow, and I’ll be eating well....
So in the last week or so, the scale has read 129 a few times and 130 a couple of times. I’m feeling momentum. Hopefully this week I won’t see 130 anymore. Besides doing the obvious exercise & diet, I think success in weight loss has a lot to do with the mental aspect. If...
This week I have felt inspired. I saw a couple of things on TV that left me feeling like, YES, I can do this. There are so many people that are conquering all kinds of hard situations, and here I am, so blessed, with so much….surely I can conquer this weight loss thing. I have...
Well, I didn’t do quite as well as I would have liked to last month. I lost 2 pounds. But, I have been much more consistent in my exercise, and my eating has been much more in line with where I would like it to be. I think to do better next month, I need...
Weekends are my weakness. We eat out more. Life is more relaxed. I get out of my routines. Sometimes I think I do great all week, and then undo everything I did on the weekend. So this weekend I will be sure to get a run in tomorrow, make smart choices when we eat out,...
I discovered about a week and a half into this that I needed a more committed exercise plan. I just wasn’t getting it done every day like I wanted. So on Thursday I set some more specific goals and I’m holding myself accountable. This week I’m 3 for 3 on workouts (2 6am runs, and...
