So I slacked off the journal for almost a week.
The scale reads 206.5 which is 4 lower then last time I posted. I'm kinda surprised since I wasn't too good this weekend.
Friday night I had 2 of the SB peperoni pizzas and no veggie, oh and my first rum and diet coke in a long time. Saturday AM was an egg and cheese on multigrain bagel while on the road, dunno how Sb the bagel was. Saturday night we went out to eat at a steakhouse that puts the loaf of bread on the table. It was multigrain looking and I ate a fair amount of it, another couple rum and dt cokes, and my sweet potato had butter and a cinnamon/sugar mix on it. Menu just said cinnamon, but I didn't ask. It also didn't stop me from eating it.
We go out to eat maybe a couple times a year, so I'll write it off. I was expecting the scale to move upwards but it didn't.
Excercise has been a bit light last week too. Wed played 9 holes of golf(walked) and had 1 hour of excercise classes. That's about it.....
Anyway as of today 236/206.5/190. Yup I'm resetting my goal 10 lbs lower..... |

The scale remains the same today. Very good to see. Either the bill for the weekend won't be coming due or it's taking it's time.
Feeling pretty good overall. I really gotta go buy some new pants. I've been on the last notch of my belt and that's not keeping them up to good now. I could punch a new hole but my belt looks like crap. Might as well get a new one and pants that fit. What a PITA.
Of course if I was the stereotypical woman(like my wife), I'd love to shop and would already have the pants. Lol.
Only complaint is that I'm tired alot. That's from a lack of sleep though. I stay up too late on weekends. Really need to take some naps but never seem able too.
B-V8 scrambled eggs
MS- 16 oz skim milk
L- salad w/2 hard boiled eggs, cheese stick
AS - Some nuts(too many) anda SBD snaack bar thing. Last one of those so they are outta the house ;)
D-2 cheesburgers, no buns per usual but no veggie. Wasn't quite down with it. Ie feeling lazy.
NS- fudgecicles
Today 236/206.5/190 |

Well I'm kinda slacking off a bit. I'm not getting all the veggies all the time. I over did the nuts yesterday. I've also gone over on my treat allowance. Oh, and I've had a couple rum and dt cokes here and there.
The scale read 205 yesterday and still says that today. So that's 31 down since I started on 5/3. 15 more till I hit my new goal!
I think excercise is saving me, lol.
Regardless, I'm losing 2 - 3 a week( I think) which I can't complain about. I wanted to be 200 by September but maybe I'll be 190 by then. If so, the fun part of trying to figure out how to maintain will begin. I doubt I can go lower then 190 but I will revisit that only when I get real close to 190.
today 236/205/190 |

Food choices are still a bit off. The positive side is that I'm not quite way off base. Veggie consumption is down some but I've been eating more fruit. Regardless it's alot better then what I was eating before. So I'm still making decent choices, just not perfect ones...

Just a ping of sorts.
I am trying to get motivated to get on track. Things fell apart for me, shocking, huh?
My food choices went out the window and I reverted to my old style. I had a hard time with the salads at lunch. I get into ruts and become bored with certain food, veggies in particular. I just gotta find ways to cook them/different varieties.
The other bad thing is my excercise routine went down the crapper. My son wussed out of summercamp. My twice a week excercise class is at the gym at work. Well, I worked from home almost all summer, so no excercise class or weight lifting sessions. All I had was a couple hours of volleyball and walking 9 holes of golf a week.
I've gained weight but don't know how much. I'm too scared/embarrassed to step on the scale. I am very confident, sigh, that I've lost muscle and replaced it with blubber.
My only saving grace are my jeans. I'm still wearing a size 34 waist. They are getting tight but are the line in the sand. I just can't go back to wearing size 36 full time. I do have them and wear them at times, namely when working around the house.
I gotta pull my head outta my @ss. Last week I ate a box of poptarts at my desk one day. Another day was half a box and 2 kit kats.
Bah. I need a good butt kicking. |

Hey, two days in a row here. I did ok till I got home yesterday. I also stepped on the scale this morning, 213.5. I've gained 10 lbs from my lowest point but at least I'm still down almost 23.
Ok, the following is not SBD friendly. Don't jump on me. I'm just writing it down to try to get myself motivated and back in gear. My motivation is really lacking.
B - scrambled eggs and V8
MS - 16 oz skim milk
L - cheese stick and ham and cheese sandwich on whole grain bread
AS - 2 SF fudgecicles
While getting ready to cook dinner - rum and diet coke, snack mix, and a handful or 2 of cheeze its.
D - bratwurst and a pasta with a cheese sauce
NS - 2 chocolate chip cookies
I did ok until later in the day. I say ok in that what I ate was reasonable. The ham and cheese only had a slice of ham and a slice of cheese, it wasn't some monster sandwich. I'm happy I avoided any of the garbage that I've gotten into the habit of eating at work.
I fell on my face at home. I need to stop drinking, again, oh I'm just a social drinker, I don't miss it if I stop, so no worries about me heading for AA. I also need to make much better choices on food. I know I can do it.
I think I may have to uncork P1 again starting this weekend unless I'm able to get myself to a very basic P2 menu. What I mean is a menu like when I first started on P2, so mostly P1 with maybe some fruit added in.
I want to try out a wii fit but can't find one, shocking! The balance/yoga exercises have me interested. I have a weak core, minor aches and pains, and probably lousy balance. I think it might be a fun way to feel better.
as of todat 236/213.5/200, yes I reset my goal to 200. I never made it in the first place and I wanted to be there by Sept 1. I failed on both counts even though I got to 203 at one point this summer.
Anyone have some good motivational tips? Maybe I need to find some pictures of me when I was heavier /shrug. |
