ups and downs
So... earlier this week, my weight went up a few more pounds. i freaked...but im sure it was directly related to eating wayyy too late and going to bed soon afterwards. yesterday was a pretty darn good day though. i didnt get to working out cuz my friend barbara was down (her mom is going to have back surgery so she is worried about her) and so we went shopping. i got 2 new bags, super cheap on clearance. by cheap means i spent less than ten on the 2. i did have a frappacino... green tea. and it was yummy. that and a having a few pieces of bread were my indiscrections yesterday. but once in a while a frapp is great. especially a green tea one. i went food shopping with robert afterwards and i got oatmeal, small lil 1 serving low sodium can's of v-8 and these cool lil starkist lunch packs. its like tuna, reduced fat mayo and 6 crackers...i had one yesterday and liked it and being on a budget they were super cheap. so those are my lunches. i also bought a bag of apples, and then dinner stuff chicken, and veggies. i make some rice or couscous with dinner, but im gonna make LESS of it so i dont have as much. overall yesterday wasnt bad and i think i did pretty good.
just being nosey, i got on my scale today. I had lost about 1.5 lbs. granted thats out of what i gained this week, so it was sorta like 1 step forward 2 steps back, 1 step foward....but its movement in the way i want :).
also yesterday i decided im giving myself 2years to get down to my goal. that seems like forever...but doing the math. if i lost an average of 1-2 lbs per week it would be roughly a year and a half. thats about 5 lbs a month...which i dont think is too ballsy and is doable. so my goal is 5 lbs a month...for now :) if i do more...fabulous.. im not aiming low...im just trying to be realistic...and as with all great things...they take time.
well this is the fabulously gorgeous newlywed that is lookin hot, signing off :P (there is a good affirmation rasberry ! haha)
which btw that reminds me, that paul mckenna guy was saying...we put ourselves through more abuse than anyone...we wouldnt take someone calling us a "fat cow", but we will look in the mirror and call ourselves one...
that, if anything else, spoke to me. no more calling myself fat or anything else negative. i need to follow my husband's direction. (he is always like, who's my sexy girl?! ) lol.
