Down 3.2!
I am down 3.2 lbs this week. I am so happy but I still am disappointed in myself. I should have been at my goal by now but instead I fell off the wagon. I know I am on the right track again and I will be there soon but I want to be there now. My new Turbo Jam arrived last Wednesday and I started exercising to it las Thursday. It is a different DVD than my other one that I can't find but it is such a good workout. I love it when my sides and stomach are sore from it, it makes me feel like my waist is shrinking and I see myself skinnier. After 10 days of working out with TJ I am going to measure myself and see If I have lost any inches. I can't wait! Hopefully next week on weigh in day I will have great success again!

I need to get back on the wagon!
I have gained half the weight back that I lost
I hit a plateau last year, around June or earlier and was getting frustrated. Then I went on vacation and everything went downhill from there. I lost my Turbo Jam DVD's so I just ordered some new ones and will be getting those by this Saturday. Hopefully earlier than that! I can't wait to get them! I just have not been exercising and eating like I should. I could kick myself in the butt! I will just have to accept that I gained this weight back and move on. I am starting all over today. I will keep track of what I eat and how much. I don't belong to WW anymore because we are trying to cut corners and WW was not something that is essential. We will just have to see how well I do on my own!

Starting over
It is Monday. I am going to try and start over. I have not been doing very well in the food and exercise department for the last several months and I am not happy with myself at all. I have gained about 17 pounds and my clothes are getting pretty tight. So today I am tracking my points again, I am trying to drink water and I plan on exercising when I get home. I have also decided to give Slimquick a try and see if it helps me. My scale broke over the weekend so I got a new one. It records your starting weight and your goal weight and it keeps track for you. It will show how much you gained or lost, what your BMI is, how much you have to lose to get to your goal and it gives you a star for every 20% of your weight you have lost. I am looking forward to weighing myself next week. I really want to get back on track and get this weight off! I am feeling down on myself and I am just getting back into my old habits. So I need to climb back on that wagon and get my butt in gear!

Faerie name
So I followed the link on Chargail's page to find out my faerie name. Here it is
Your fairy is called Gossamer Cornwand
She is a creator of bounty and harvest.
She lives in spiderwebbed wonderlands and insect grottos.
She is only seen when the seer holds a four-leafed clover.
She wears tiny black spiders on her dresses. She has butterfly wings the colour of yellow corn
Pretty cool, eh? I love anything that has to do with faeries.
I haven't been posting for a while. I am embarrassed to say that I have gained more than I wanted to. I didn't want to post that gain but I need to admit it to myself and get back on track. Every time I try something happens. We are closing the office that I currently work out of and I will be moving to a different building and there are several people that have already left this office. Everytime someone leaves we have a party! Plus we have birthdays to celebrate too. Last week we had, I think, 3 parties! I am trying my best to get back on track. Dec. 15 will be when I start at the new building and I will be off by 2:00 everyday so I will be able to go home and exercise before the kids get home from school! I can't wait. Right now I don't get off until 5-5:15 and there is no time for exercise right now. I need a good kick in the butt!

DH is exercising!
My husband has decided to start exercising. I hope he keeps it up. So far he has exercised two days in a row. Now he just needs to learn to eat right. I didn't exercise on Monday but I did yesterday and all weekend. I will exercise again tonight. I think I am back on track. I am already looking forward to weighing in on Monday.
I watched TBL last night. Is it just me or has Jillian gotten mean? I couldn't believe how she talks to them. I know she wants to motivate them and all but I think she is being mean. I didn't watch it last year so I don't know if she was like this last season or not but WOW! Hot Bob is still Hot at least! Oh, and I was very pleased about, I forgot her name, but the one girl that only lost 2 lbs and she said she was very happy about that. Most of the time everyone is upset they lost only a couple lbs, it is about time someone was pleased that they lost weight even if it wasn't a big number. It is healthier anyway.
Only a couple more days until the weekend. I am so ready for it!

Down 3 whole pounds!
I lost 3 pounds this week and I am so excited about it! I was very good all week and counted my points and exercised 5 out of 7 days this week. I will continue to do the same this week. If I am lucky maybe I will be back in the 160's next week. If not, it is ok as long as I lose at least a pound! My birthday is in 3 weeks, I was hoping to be at my goal by then but obviously I will not be but at least I am back on track!
Have a great week!

Still doing well!
I did exercise last night. I put some chicken in the oven and then got on my elliptical for 30 minutes. Yeah me! I have been keeping track of my points and am doing pretty well. I am looking forward to weighing myself on Monday, it has been a long time since I have looked forward to a weigh in. I hope to be down a pound or two.
Have a great weekend!

So far, so good!
Well, so far I am doing pretty good. I exercised for 30 minutes last night, I have been counting my points and am being pretty good. It is hard though because the temptations are there. My office is relocating to another office and a lot of people are taking new jobs within the company. So each time a person leaves for their new job, we have a going away party. We usually have a pot luck and lots of desserts. That does not make it easy. I will do my best though.

I need a good kick in the butt!
Well, I have not been doing very well diet wise. I have gained quite a bit over the summer and now my clothes are starting to feel uncomfortable and a bit tight. I need to get myself back on track. I am still doing WW and I am trying to count my points again. I am also going to get exercise in every day after work, even if it means dinner is late and I have to go to sleep later. I will do this. I also bought Hydroxycut, I am desperate. Has anyone ever tried it?
I just have been coming up with excuses to eat whatever I want. No time, oh I will start tomorrow, you know all the excuses. I am up to 175, I was in the 160s and even down to 158 at one point but now I need to really start getting serious again. I need to throw those excuses out the door and hold myself accountable again. I should have been at my goal weight by now and it makes me so mad that I am not and I only have myself to blame
I have not come this far to gain it all back. Hopefully next week I will be able to say that I have lost a pound and be happy. For now, I am quite disappointed in myself and I will be trying my best to get back on track. Send me some good vibes please!

I am up a little
Well, TOM is here and I am wanting to eat everything is sight! I am also furious with some of the people I work with and I really want to go off on them but I won't. I will just let myself cool down and forget all about it. It is pretty much a matter of helping out and they won't do it. I just want to scream and yell until I feel better but I won't. I will just have a mental tantrum. But a punching bag would be a whole lot better!
My weight is a yo-yo right now. I am frustrated with it and I really don't have a good time to get any exercise in right now. The weather is way to hot to do anything on my lunch and after work is a whole other story. I can't get up earlier right now so I am just trying to count my points and be as good as I can be.
