Day 36 - Did My Best

I did not weigh myself this morning so I'm not sure how I did yesterday exactly.  I do know that I had a few drinks and a couple of cookies and a brownie.  Otherwise the day went pretty well.  We had gone to our booster bash last night and there was some drinking and eating, so it's a little difficult to be perfectly good when everyone else around you is partying.  Today will be better as we are going to be mostly home bodies...  I have a couple of house things to do... and we are going over to my sister-in-law's house tonight for dinner.

Tomorrow I'm going into the office which will be more structured than my typical Monday, so I should be able to control my eating better today and tomorrow.  So we'll see how it goes.  I really need a good loss this week to catch up for the last two weeks...

Day 35 - Weigh In Not Good News

My last two weeks threw me way off and I need to get it back together.  I need to make sure things don't get to me so much, that I do what I need to do in all areas of my life despite my circumstance.  It's not always easy... Still, I am pretty close to my goal loss of 1.5 lbs per week still so I'm not that far behind and I can catch back up quickly.  I'm just not going to give up.

How are you doing with your goal?  Are you getting through without letting life get to you?  Let me know.

Day 33 - Not So Good This Week

Ok, girl scout cookies and beer have been my downfall since I got home this week.  I did walk a bit yesterday, probably about 20 minutes.  Today we have a busy day so I am not sure if I will be able to walk or not.  I only have two days and probably about 4 lbs to lose, although I didn't weigh myself this morning.  I'm expecting that this week will not be good so I'll have to try a lot harder next week.

Up A Bit With This Morning's Weigh In

This morning I weighed myself at 210 and I have updated the stats on the side.  I got home last night late after flying home from L.A.  I didn't know if the walking around the airport of the heavy eating would affect me more, I guess it was all kind of neutral.

I've only got 4 days to lose this week... I'm going to target 208.5 for my next weigh in Saturday.

We Will Have To Wait One Day

I was stuck in Los Angeles overnight and am still waiting for an open seat, so could not weigh myself today.  I'll do that tomorrow, and I'll be honest, because I probably gained a pound or two this week.  I'll just have to do better in my next *4 day* week.  Thank you for your patience.

Diet Out The Window?

We are driving across Oklahoma right now as I write on Interstate 40, Jeffery is driving.  We are driving his 1991 Toyota Corolla and it's doing very well, although not so much on gas mileage.  We have to fill up about every 200 miles and I'm not sure how that's going to be when we get into Texas.  We got stuck in Tulsa in a traffic jam that ate up about 50 minutes but we're trying to get back on schedule now.  We're driving through to Phoenix today, which will probably put us after 1am local time unless we do something miraculous.

My eating has sucked but I've had some good stuff.  After today I'll try to get back on track.  Monday's weigh in will not look too pretty though I'm pretty sure.

Our schedule puts us into L.A. at midnight on Saturday night, so we're going to take a breather at my brother-in-law's house for the day tomorrow.  They've got a pool and we've got some cigars... I'll probably have a beer or two also.  Gotta treat this like a vacation some how.

Day 25 - I Guess It's Not

My eating was definitely not under control yesterday and it showed on the scale today.  My big problem was that I had pretzels and rice crispy treats in the afternoon.  Most of the day was similar to other days I had otherwise... I had cereal for breakfast, PB&J on wheat and a fiber one bar for lunch, and a reasonable dinner.  I had chocolate-covered pomegranates after dinner (dark chocolate).  Exercise was 35 minutes of walking around our warehouse.

I won't be writing anything for the next for days because I will be traveling.  I will pick it up again on Monday.
