It's been too long!

I'm so sorry I haven't posted lately! I've been trucking along with the weightloss and adoption process. We have turned in our adoptiove parent profiles to the agency and now with our home study done we are just waiting to be matched with a birth mom. My DNDH and I are so excited that we are finally going to get to be parents. The infertility struggles are behind us and we can focus on our lives now, we have actually ended up closer after all of the struggle and hardships that infertility caused.

I'm down to 217.2!!!! My next short term goal is 199!!!!

Even on Sunday

I worked out for 30 minutes 5 times this week, and for 15 minutes once. I'm hoping to have just as a good a week this coming week. They say it only takes 6 weeks for a behavior to become a pattern. I seriously hope that I can develop the habit a little quicker than that!

Progress!

I'm down 1.4 pounds! Say it with me now WOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!! At this rate I will be very close to where I want to be by this time next year!

Still Trucking Along

I was moderately good today though I indulged myself a bit for lunch. I went with a co-worker to lunch at an Italian restaurant  and I order pizza, but I scraped the toppings off the crust and just ate the toppings. I felt like such a goober, but the waitress knew what I was doing and told me she's on SB too!

I worked out tonight again, it was a very short work out and I only did 15 situps but at least I worked out some. It's progress.

It's a Good Thing

I've been on my diet even though I haven't been posting. My mom and I went back to Curves and started our daily exercise routine. We went the last two days. I'm hoping that I see a better weight loss this week than I did last week. I know that it's good to lose 1-2 pounds a week, but I would like to see a whole pound or so, not the .8 from last week. I'm being greedy I know, but still I wish I could start seeing the results. I'm impatient.

.8 Pounds

Frazzlin', lousy, sucky .8 pound loss. I'm disappointed and angry at myself for not trying harder to work out. My back couldn't have taken a real hard work out and the Total Gym or bike would have been out of the question but I could have found SOMETHING to do, but I didn't, and all I have to show for my being good on my diet is .8 sucky pounds. I'll be better in a bit. 

Weigh In Tomorrow

I think I have done okay, not great, but good. I stayed on Phase 1 for 6 of the 7 days of the last week. I'm going to convince myself that 2 pounds a week would be nice and acceptable. I find myself wishing I was one of those people who dropped lots of weight quickly on SB, but if I did I wouldn't be as appreciative of the hard work it's been taking. I was completely terrible about working out this week, I let the sore back be my excuse, I need to stop the excuses, I was doing so good with it until I twisted my back, I will be again.

And All Was Right With the World!

I have been very good with the exception of the fried chicken. I have stayed away from bread, ice cream, cookies, carrots, corn, and potatoes. Tonight I will stuff myself full of Boiled Shrimp!! My Father In Law and DNDH took my nephews tralling(sp) today as shrimp season opened yesterday and they boiled what they got!!! I have been CRAVING seafood and have not had a chance to really eat it even though it's on the Phase One goodie list. I am going to eat it until I pop!!!

Monday, Monday

Sorry I'm so late to post I've had a busy busy day. I seem to have aggravated my back somehow and was still feeling it a bit when I got home so I decided to forgo the exercise tonight and instead will pick up a work out on Saturday and Sunday instead of just Sunday. I'm laying in bed watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, I love these movies and the books. I'm so sad the series is done. Oh well, I guess now I'll have to find a new series to read. Any suggestions?

Still Hanging In!

Nothing new to report but I'm trying to make myself post everyday. I was good all weekend the only thing I had that I shouldn't have had was fried chicken. Nothing else, just the chicken. I would like to feel bad about it, however I don't, it was wonderful!
