Before After

Must be a sign.

 

I had a whole entry venting about how I feel I have done so poorly this week but I sneezed and looked back at the screen and it was gone. Poof! Just gone. Maybe that's a sign?!

My eating may not have been so bad this week but it's really the exercise piece I feel I've failed at. Since Tuesday I've only been to the gym once. That is UNACCEPTABLE! I really should have done better. Working this weekend really set me off my schedule. I know that's not an excuse because it's just poor planning. I went in late today, so got off late and the gym was closed by the time I made it home. Roomie is home so I can't do my DVD workout. So I'll have to do 2 workouts tomorrow and Monday to get my 5 workouts in this week. I just really want to maintain. A loss will be a shocker. A gain will be such a disappointment but expected. We shall see though.

Funny story of the day...KillerHair reminded me when I read her blog...I got a message from a guy on msypace the other day. As soon as I saw his picture I KNEW who he was...The first guy I ever made out with in middle school. I didn't want to but I did it because I wanted to be "cool" to my friends, you know how middle school is!! Well I was overweight then too and all the boys would be like "she's pretty, she just needs to lose weight" and it was awful. I'd cry and cry because they teased me. Even my bff @ the time. It was a bad time which is where my low self esteem stems from. WELLL, he messages me and says "YOU LOOK FIERCE" and instead of saying "really? thanks" I say "I'm not the chunky girl from middle school am I?" and he messages back "Not at all!" HA! I felt good about that. He'll never know how their jokes and smart comments made me feel. It really sticks with you. 

Today's Eating:
B-1/2 bagel w/cream cheese and bacon- 4.5
S-apple, handful of m&m's- 2.5
L- Sammie, grapes, 1/2 bowl of soup- 6
S-100 cal Sun chips, Smart snack- 4
D-Chili's baked potato soup, guiltless chicken w/fresh veggies and corn on the cob (add in a few bites of roomies paradise pie)-  17.5 :(

34.5 points...Over by 4.5 points. It's not the bad but it feels worse, IDK. Still have most of my flex points left but still feel bad about the way I ate today. I gotta stop snackin so much...I can't help it I just feel so damn hungry all the time. I really should look into a appetite suppresant or something.
 

That's all for today, enjoy the superbowl and STAY OUT OF THE QUESO!! ;)

Comments to this post:

middle school

is THE WORST.  I remember feeling so awkward and fat througout, although honestly, if I had the body now I had in 7th grade, I would be such a hottie!!!  I just developed early, and was thick, and much heavier than all my skinny twiggy friends...argh.   It's such an awful time of life. 

Well good for your middle school NSV.  Keep it up...you owe it to yourself to fufil you're fierce potential!

Love, TT

It's Ok

Dont beat yourself up too much for not getting all of your workouts in.  Things happen!  The important thing is that you have acknowledged the fact that you do need to incorporate more workouts in.  Working and going to school makes that difficult I know!!  Didnt know you had a myspace page.   Mine is www.myspace.com/mlt1017 .  So make sure you go up there and add me:)

Go Giants!!  :)

Heya!

Hey girl.  Don't get too down on yourself.  Crap happens, you know?  "Days" happen and "weeks" happen. 

I bet you feel really great about that comment.  You are fabulous!

I think

You still did good considering. I feel bad this week as well. I feel like I've gained and I'm nervous about getting on the scale tomorrow. Sorry I really don't have any encouraging words at the moment. All I can say is try to do your best and don't beat yourself up. This week is a new week!  Hey I have a myspace too! If you want to add me as a friend that will be cool and if not that will be cool too. My page is marked private, so you will have to request me first. Anyhow Lets not dwell on the past lets dedicate this week to giving it our all and doing whatever it takes to get it done! We can do this! Have a goodone! Oh my address is www.myspace.com/missv77

Hey there

Please don't beat yourself up about the workouts.  Some unsolicited advise to do with what you will...   "when you miss a workout, you miss it.  Put it behind you and move on." 

Trying to "catch up" keeps you in reactive mode rather than proactive. 

Just commit to having an amazing week this week.    We all know you can do it!!!! 

Think the store from middle school is great! 

They called me tree in middle school.  Stick thin, no boobs, big hair.  Just goes to show that either way you go, the teasing is there. 

Hope you have a great week. 

 

Stay away from the M&M's!!!

Lol..sorry...going through some things with M&M's these days!!!  Don't try to do too much exercise in one day!
