CUT IT OUT!
Guess cutting out soda (even diet) works wonders for jumpstarting the weight loss again.
Managed to lose 6 pounds over the last week cutting down to one 12oz cups of soda (fill 3/4 w/ice) per day. With no soda at all on Saturday or Sunday.
Doing great!! Now to keep it up and hope that the migrane from lack of caffeine goes away soon.

Starting Over
I am giving myself a few days to mentally re-prepare myself for getting back on track.
Slowly cutting out the Diet Coke that I live on to get thru the days.
My daughter took a picture the other day that made me want to vomit. I cannot believe I'm still fat and ugly.
Life has coming crashing down over the last year and it's made me go back in to eatting things I know I shouldn't be. While I now care about how much I'm weighing again there are times when food is still my go to person to console with.
Being a single mom now with 3 kids leaves not much time for me other than the few hours right now of peace in the afternoon. I know I SHOULD be working out in some form, but taking a nap or having sanity time sounds much better.

Thank God for Kids
Just as the title says...
Thank god for kids! Well just the oldest who does NOT know how to take a flattering photo. Made me realize that I'm still a horrific looking pig!
No wonder I have no friends.

STARTING OVER
Back at it. Seriously. Weather is getting nice outside. I want to do more with the kids than just sit inside and watch TV shows.
So starting weight today: 248.0

Gotta Get Going
Back up towards 250 again. NOT good.
But with school full time AND 3 kids when am I suppose to find the time to work out? It's hard enough to eat (let alone eat correctly).

BACK ON THE PATH
I realize that I can no longer go on like this. I'm getting bigger again. NOT what I wanted especially since I never made it to my goal in the first place. I stopped at 230ish and went back up from there. UGH!
So this week we cut out most of the soda in the whole house. Much to the dismay of the kids.
I also took up walking this week to be active.
6.27.09 -- 2.25 miles
6.29.09 -- 3.5 miles
6.30.09 -- 1.5 miles
7.1.09 -- .5 mile
7.2.09 -- .5 mile
7.3.09 -- .5 mile
7.4.09 -- .75 mile
I had to cut back on the mileage after Tuesday when I could no longer walk/sit without being in pain. I didn't go in to the doctor but after consulting with a few friends that are runners I'm sure I had the answer. Shin splints.
So I cut myself down to 1/2 mile and it didn't hurt so bad. Now this week will be between 3/4 mile and 1 mile each day. I can do it!!
I managed to show a 5 pound loss for last week doing what I did!

Really
I really need to get my butt in gear. I can't let my older sister be skinnier than me dang it!
I do wish you the best with what you chose, sis, but dang it I can't let you beat me!

Um....I was lost
Bad bad bad.
That should sum up the months of me not being here. I did at one point manage to get down to 225, but now I'm back up towards 240 again. How the hell did that happen? Oh....I know. I lost my motivation and found snacks again. Even if they are marked lowfat it doesn't help if you eat 2 or 3 of them at one time.
So I need to get back. Back to posting every day again. Keeping track of what I am doing again. Starting tomorrow. Yes....really. One more day of crappy eating & diet soda then I'm back.
I would have started today, but I want an accurate weight before starting again. Once I have that weight I will set myself a goal. Ideally I'd like to get to 200 by August, but I don't see that happening.

New Week
I couldn't get in any workouts last week. I mean I could have, but I'd have been in pain the WHOLE time.
I went to the doctor on Tuesday - the stupid dog bruised my calf muscles (thru both layers) so I wasn't suppose to over use them.
This week my goals are to work out more than 2 weeks ago.
