I'm doing better as far as how I feel, but on the weight loss side I'm not doing so hot. I weighed myself last night just for the fun of it and well let's just say it wasn't any fun. UP 2 lbs since Friday and with Turley day being tomorrow I just don't know how Friday is going to be. I've already decided that Monday I start to make myself new habits.
On the hubby front, he's being wonderful. I'm sure it's just sucking up cause he was a jerk last weekend, but I'll take it. They guy he works with decided to go hunting yesterday afternoon because they were just standing around at work, well B said no and went home and cleaned and rearranged the bedroom, vacuumed and then made dinner. It was great. Then he ate with me and went back to work. It was nice, I love a clean house, but refuse to do it all myself.
Now onto something I'm really Pissed about! I sent the photographers from my wedding their last payment last Friday and she said they would have my pictures up by Tuesday, well here it is Wednesday and no pictures. I really wanted to be able to show them to my family tomorrow, they better be up by the end of the day!
Oh and being that I'm without child I plan on going to pool and having too much to drink tonight. It doesn't happen very often that I get that chance, so I'm going to take advantage.
I'm off to check on all of you, oh and my pictures!
So I gained a opund last week and I'm guessing it's TOM's fault cause he showed yesterday. Which on top of making me feel like crap makes me feel worse cause it means I'm not pregnant. Dh and I got in a fight last night and I'm starting to doubt if he's ready for kids of not. I'm basically just down in the dumps. I'm only setting 2 goals for myself this week:
1. Drink 64 oz of water a day
2. Don't over eat.
I figure if I keep things nice and simple this week I might achieve my goals and it might make me feel better.
So I had a pretty busy day. I had a muffin while I was on my way to work for breakfast and then 10am rolled around and I was starving so I ate my lunch sandwich. It was ok though because I had a lunch meeting today so work bought me another sandwich and some pasta salad, I missed my soup, but I'm not going to complain. Then I spent most of my afternoon in a meeting. Now I'm finally home and I have a terrible head ache. I was going to go work out but we were supposed to go to our camp and finish closing up, but DH decided we are going to do that tomorrow so I've decided not to do anything but make dinner cause well I'm tired and don't really have to. Not good for goals though. I think I might just start over tomorrow.
Well dinner is ready so I'm off to eat. Soup and grilled cheese.
Well I guess yesterday was an ok day, besides being tired things were ok.
Breakfast: 1 serving Vanilla yogurt cheerios with 1 cup skim milk, 1 banana muffin
Snack: WW Strawberry Banana yogurt
Lunch: Lite Ceasar salad with Salami sandwich on multi-grain bread with 1 srv red. Fat may, FF cheese , tomato and onion
Dinner: 2 300 calorie frozen pizzas and 1 serv. Pasta rice
I wasn’t sure if I was still hungry after dinner, but I got up and showered instead of eating more.When I got up this morning I realized I must have needed to eat some more because my stomach was growling something fierce.
I only got in 47.5 oz of water yesterday, but I couldn’t handle any more.I drank half a bottle while working out and came home feeling bloated and sick to my stomach.I’m doing pretty good today though, it’s noon and I’ve already had 23.7 oz.
I did work out last night for about an hour, I was pooped when I got done, but I did it.30 min on elliptical and about 30 more on legs. When I got home from the gym DH comes into the kitchen and asked me what was for dinner because he was starving.I seriously wanted to slap him, but then he said that he was just going to heat up left overs if I didn’t have anything planned.I told him I was trying to save it for tonight when we don’t have time to cook and he said, well what do you want me to cook then?I was floored.He went and got me his pillow and let me lay on the couch watching TV while he made dinner for us.It was wonderful!
Oh and I forgot to mention yesterday that I wore a pair of jeans on Sunday that I haven’t worn in 8 years!And guess what DH absolutely loved them.They are part of the reason I only worked on my legs at the gym.They made me realize my belly is going down, but my thighs are terrible.They’ve always been the worst part.
Thanks Angela, I needed a scolding.And now that I look at my goals again I guess I’m not doing that bad, there are only 2 I really need to work on, of course they are the most important 2, but still it’s only 2, water and exercise! I'm thinking about going home and doing my 20 min Turbo Jam before pool tonight.
Here’s to another great day in the weight loss journey, only 2 days til WI!
Well Friday night was good. I went straight to the gym at 4 and did my 30 min elliptical routine, then rushed home showered for dinner and we managed to get there 10 minutes early. Damn I'm good! I would like to say I did amazing, but I didn't, I did control myself though. I got the sirloin with mushrooms and fries. The bad part is that I ate all my fries with ranch dressing. The good part is that I only ate maybe 7 bites of the steak. (I always try to eat the stuff I can take home last). So I have almost a whole steak in my fridge. I was also bad and had some of DH's fried clams and scallops. Hey I resisted getting the fried seafood platter like everyone else so I was proud. After dinner we rented movies went home watched one and passed out.
Saturday I got up did chores and shopping then went to mom's for her jewelry party. DH came over and we stayed to play poker. After the 1st game I didn't have the $ to buy in so mom paid for my second after I insisted she didn't have to ( I came in 3rd). Then they wanted to play another game but I told DH I was out of money and I wanted to go home. Well he wanted to stay and play so he paid for me (came in 3rd again). It was only midnight when the 3rd game ended so they wanted to play another, but I told DH it was time to go home. Long story short, he told me poker is the only thing he gets to do all weekend and he should be able to leave when he wants to. And he considers hunting to be like work cause he gets up at 4am to go. His cousin dropped him off at 2am. He told me "I just have a little buzz." and 10 minutes later he was in the bathroom puking his brains out. (so much for "a little buzz") He played the "I'm never drinking again" card. And an hour after I fell asleep he woke me up by trying to climb over me to get out of bed and almost fell head first on the floor (why he didn't get out his side I don't know), then he tried to pee in the closet and then the spare room until I finally got him into the bathroom. (Oh and for food I did good. I ate my last piece of Chicken Parm before the party and had 2 small sloppy joes)
I got up at 8 on Sunday after about 3 hours sleep and made a pumpkin chiffone pie and watched a movie. He slept til 11 just like I thought he would. The we got in a huge fight because he wanted to act like nothing was wrong. I was still so mad thinking about it made me want to throw things. I reminded him off all the things he said to me and pointed out that while he is hunting and sleeping and then playing cards all weekend every weekend I'm doing laundry, paying bills, grocercy shopping and all that and that I didn't think it was too much to ask for my husband to come home and go to bed with me after we had been doing what he wanted for 4 hours. He basically didn't say anything but you're right I'm sorry. On the way to football he started asking about when we can find out if I'm pregnant or not and stuff like that so it made me feel a little better, but he was basically just sucking jup. I told him he owes me big and he better be thinking about how he's going to change things cause I'm not dealing with it. When we got home last night he got the stuff for tonights meatloaf together while I made banana muffins.
I did pretty good eating Sunday I had a bowl of chilli and 1.5 pieces of the pumpkin pie (it was low fat) and some popcorn. We watched Knocked Up before we went to bad. It was really good!
For breakfast I had a mix of cheerios and yogurt bites and a banana muffin. And lunch was a lowfat ceasar salad and a turkey sandwich.
Hope everyone is having a great day, I'm going to try and check on you now.
I'm so happy it's Friday. We have a radio station here that has callers sing this stupid song at 4 on Fridays and as much as I hate it I can't wait to hear it today. Friday, Friday, Fri-day! It's been a long week at work with lots of hot projects that just can't seem to work themselves out.
So I actually remembered to WI this morning. Down .5 from the last time I recorded, but I think it's actually 2.5 from what I weighed last Saturday, can't really remember.
Yesterday went pretty well, I drank 71oz of water and only overate by a few bites at dinner last night (as I was putting the left overs away I had two bites, realized what I was doing and threw the spoon in the sink). Oh yeah and DH was starving when I got home and I didn't really feel like cooking so I wanted to suggest getting pizza, well I stopped myself because even though it was crappy, I already at it once.
As for my goals I did pretty good this week considering the week was half over for me before I set them. I did ok on portion sizes, Pizza only once, worked out 4 times, brought breakfast and lunch everday, did really good with all stresses and I am yet to have a cigarette!
I figure I'll set new goals today because everything else in my life starts a new week on Friday.
1. I will control my portion sizes, if 1 portion doesn't do the trick I probably shouldn't be eating it!
2. I will limit myself to pizza once a week, unless it's Smart Ones, that doesn't count.
3. Will work out at least 4 times a week for no less than 1 hour.
4. I will take my breakfast and lunch to work every day.
5. Drink 64oz of water a day
6. I will not stress out over the things I can't control
7. I will not look for signs of pregnancy (I ovulated Monday and now have to wate 2 weeks )
8. I will not will not drink (above said chance of pregnancy)
9. I will not smoke (I haven't had a cigarette in 1 Month, 5 Days, 16 hours and 35 minutes. I have saved $55.03 and 18 hours and 20 minutes of my life!)
You know I had another goal I wanted to add yesterday but figured I might as well wait until today, but of course I forgot. Oh well!
Here's to a new week starting off with challenges. We are going to dinner with his dad and step mom tonight at one of my favorite restaurants for steak with mushrooms and what not. Thank god I'm going to work in part of my exercising first. I'm also going to ask for a doggy bag right away and put half the food in there.
I feel so fat today and I don't know why. It's really a bloated feeling either, I do't know. I should probably just start working and not worry about it huh?
Yesterday went pretty well, but my eating wasn't all that great. I was busy running around at work all day which was good being that I don't work out on Wed, but the food got the better of me. For Breakfast I had coffee (I've now switched to 1/2 calf for sake of "maybe baby") sausage egg casserole thingie, yoplait yogurt. Lunch was salami sandwich and campbell's vegetable beef soup. Sounds like I did good right? Snack when I got home cause I was starving, buffalo pretzel bites, about a 1/3 of the bag, then at pool I had 3 pieces of a sheet pizza. Now I'm upset because my goal to eat it once a week and I wasted it on pizza that tasted like cardboard. I swear cutting up the box and eating it would have been just as good. So then when we got home DH made one of the "Past Rice" sides, he says they have fewer calories and that's why he bought them, he was thinking of me, but I ate half of the package, I think it's only a 2 serving package though. I just thought it was nice of him to at least think about doing something like that for me because he normally refuses to eat "healthy" foods.
I probably only drank about 50 oz of water yesterday, but that is going to change today!
So today is going to be better. I can drink more water because I know I O'd and don't have to worry about taking that test in the after noon.
Here's to a new day! I'll get on during lunch and check on everyone.
So thanks to Angela I've decided to start setting goals again, because like here and Carolyn I also need some motivation!
1. I will control my portion sizes, if 1 portion doesn't do the trick I probably shouldn't be eating it!
2. I will limit myself to pizza once a week, unless it's Smart Ones, that doesn't count.
3. Will work out at least 4 times a week for no less than 1 hour.
4. I will take my breakfast and lunch to work every day.
5. Drink 64oz of water a day
6. I will not stress out over the things I can't control
7. I will not look for signs of pregnancy (I ovulated Monday and now have to wate 2 weeks )
8. I will not will not drink (above said chance of pregnancy)
9. I will not smoke (I haven't had a cigarette in 1 Month, 3 Days, 16 hours and 48 minutes. I have saved $52.04 and 17 hours and 20 minutes of my life!)
As for yesterday had did work out even though I didn't want to and I ate healty. I would write more, but my lunch hour is over.
Lunch - Salami sandwich with 1 slice cheese, lettuce, less than one serving Reduced fat mayo, bacon ceasar salad, not the best, but better than fries!
Dinner, two thin slice chicken parmesan over linguine
Snack - Terrible!!! 3 mini snickers, but they are gone now so that won't be happening again!
On the baby front, DH and I should have BD last night cause I think I O'd, but he put in a 12 hour day so he was pretty tired and we didn't. Maybe I'm wrong and I won't O until today.
