Yoga day

Today is the first day of the rest of my yoga.  I am not a huge fan of yoga, but I promised my sister I would give it at least a month.  Today will be day 1.  I have an impingement in my shoulder, so I am hoping that the combination of yoga and easing off weights will result in bye bye impingement.  We'll see.  Hopefully, I will LOVE yoga and want to stick with it, I figure regardless, after a month it will be part of the routine and just what I do.  We are also adding spinning to the routine.  Yikes!  I hope I make it!!

New month

New attempt to blog!  So, nothing has really changed.  Oh, that's not true, I have started eating breakfast.  I also stopped working out with my trainer and am going it ALONE.  I have picked up Pilates and this week will also pick up yoga and spinning.  If you haven't done Pilates Allegro, I highly recommend it, it's my new favorite workout!  Very much fun!

Wednesday

Do you ever get tired of eating the same things over and over?  Apparently, I don't.  I eat a turkey sandwich every day for lunch and have for the last 3 months or so.  Sometimes we will go out to lunch, but the turkey is my standby.  And now I have noticed that every night for dinner (unless I go out), I have 2 scrambled eggs with ham, cheese and green chile.  Weird.  Of course, it makes keeping my food blog insanely easy since all I have to do is copy my meals over, but why don't I get tired of this?  Shouldn't I get tired of eating the same things every day?  I guess if it ain't broke, don't fix it, but it just seems weird to me. 

And before people start commenting with other things I can try, I do eat other foods, I am not looking for recommendations, just noticing a trend.  Thanks though!!

Tuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuesday

My Mom sent me a Starbucks card.  Here I was lamenting my lack of Starbucks to myself yesterday and when I got home and checked my mail, STARBUCKS CARD!  Sa-Weet!

So obviously, I had Starbucks this morning.  I think when you are addicted to something, they say admitting it is the first step.  SCREW YOU!  I ADMIT NOTHING!

Last night was all core exercises at the gym with my trainer, something about working 29 muscles blah, something else, blah blah.  It was hard, good, but definitely hard!  I passed on some of the exercises to my Mom so when she went to the gym this morning she and her friends did them.  They were not happy with me! :)  Tonight, no gym, paper writing, but gym WThF.

Monday

Another day another 500 calories.  So far, I have had a glass of milk, but I have big plans.  I am brewing (ok, I made Phet brew) coffee and I am contemplating either a piece of peanut butter toast or a bowl of oatmeal. 

I have papers to write, but really, what's more important my graduate degree or my weight loss blog.  I think we ALL know the answer to that one!

I am a tad disgruntled with my body today, yesterday I weighed 162, today, 164.  LIAR!  I did NOT gain two pounds in one day, thankyouverymuch.  Still I let it get to me, even though I know it's not real.  Perhaps, I should stop weighing myself, but really what would be the fun in that!

I am beginning to think

judging from my blog this week, that I am really not taking this eating right business seriously, as I am sitting here with my mocha frapp with whip cream.  Hmmm.....  Makes me look bad.  Makes me feel like I should make a change.  Makes me feel like maybe, instead of changing, I should just stop blogging.... :)

Anyone want to run a 5k with me in October?  I want to do the Strides for Life colon cancer 5k, anyone?  Bueller??  Fine, I will find someone else to run it with me.

I did go to the gym last night, hit the elliptical machine, bruised my hand.  HA!  I crack me up!!  Tonight I will go again, I like going on Fridays, there is no one there.  Oh, yeah, yesterrday?  Ate a krispy kreme donut.  SO freakin good!

Nothing but a coke and a smile

Nothing says healthy eating more than a coke for breakfast.  A little more high carb than I am aure my trainer would appreciate, but I did wash my coke down with a scrambled egg on toast.  So that's ok, right?  Right????

I did not go the gym last night, I walked the dog then melted into my couch and becaome one with the cushions.... comfy..... So tonight, I am going to the gym, tomorrow too, I PROMISE!!!

I ate a crappy lunch yesterday, ramen noodles with a slice of cheese melted into it, yummy, but not a lot of protein going on.  So I tried to make up for it with 2 scrambled eggs for dinner, some certain online people would not let me eat a bowl of cheerios.  Hmph!  So today, iam having a crappy coke and then will make up for it with a heatlhy turkey sandwich.  And some baked cheetos. :) 

Ugh!

So, after telling me to eat peanut butter for breakfast, my trainer said yesterday that I was consuming too much fat.  Um, HELLO!  PEANUT BUTTER!  So, now, I am planning on replacing the peanut butter with edamame, but still, I don't know if I can do edamame for breakfast.  And really, that's what this was all about, getting me to eat a real breakfast.  Then, I talked to my sister (personal trainer also) and she is all yes to the peanut butter.  My head hurts and I am still fat.  Not eating is much easier than eating.

The first day of the *snore*.......

So, today we try something new, today we are trying ExtraPounds.com.  I am trying to lose weight, I have lost 25 pounds (well, 20, I am fluffy this week) to date, but I need (want) to lose 10 more.  I want to weigh 150.

My problem is I don't eat.  So my trainer set me up with a eating plan, except here it is 10am and all I have had is a SB mocha frapp lite.  I am pretty sure that's not how the plan was supposed to go.  I am supposed to be eating a slice of bread with peanut butter.  Yeah.  Anyway.  I am really hopeful that this will be motivating for me, if I put my food laziness in print for all to mock.

And really, ExtraPounds people, a spell check option on the blog would be nice.
