Nooo...I'm not talking about the grocery store found in some of the southern states, I'm talking about me. My eatting was bad yesterday I had a burger & fries for lunch and for dinner I had a subway sanwhich with the cookies. I didn't work out yesterday because my sister was going to do my hair, but becuase I was running late and she now has two kids, I had to postpone until today. It sucks because today is my bellydancing class, and I would finanlly get a chance to wear my skirt with the coins on it. (shing-shing-shing ) I showed the skirt to my mom and she loved it. She was trying to do her own bellydancing moves. LOL
Well another month and no weight loss. Actually jumped on the scale today and it read 227.4 which means I am up some pounds. I'm not worried because I can tell that I have slimmed down. My work pants which were size 18 now need to be pulled up everytime I stand up. The pants I had on yesterday were too loose at the leg, I could kinda feel the air blowing in the pants leg.
I know eatting is still a downfall for me. Also instead of making monthly goals that I don't seem to keep I will try small weekly goals instead. So here are the goals for next week since we are already in the middle of this one.
Drink at least 3 full glasses of water per day
Eat a protein and veggie at each meal
Aim to eat 4 small meals and 2 light snacks
Try to wake up early to workout
Try to lose 2 pounds for next week
Ok so there it is, I know what I have to do. I will keep you guys posted.
And keep pushing towards your goals. We can do it.

Eating
is my downfall too. And I know I don't get enough veggies by a long shot. Your goals sound good and doable. Good luck!
... for your comment on my post! Believe me ... if I can "run" or wog as I like to call it - anyone can!!!
I was running a couple of years ago until I screwed up knee and then threw my hands up. But have gotten back into it. I started out walking, then jogging a few houses and walking a few and slowly progressed. I joined the running group about 4 or 5 weeks ago (we had brief interuption due to Hurricane Gustav). I am in the beginner group of course but some of these beginners really should be in the next group. I am usually last or next to last but I have gotten to the point that I don't care. I am out there doing it. I need to work on my run because I signed up for a half Ironman next April and the run portion is a half marathon. My swim and bike are good. My "run" is ackkkkkk! Am also hoping will drop weight a bit faster with the running like before cause have to get a wetsuit for the Ironman *gasp* lol.
The really nice thing is that all my preconceived ideas about how I would be received being an obese person by all the "little" people in the triathlon and running group have mostly been totally wrong. Everyone is very supportive and encouraging. Now there are some that talk behind backs but I just choose not to waste time or energy on them and I figure that they may actually be intimidated by my determination and good attitude.
Good luck with your eating goals!!! That is my downfall also. With all the exercising I have been doing I should have lost a lot more. But have been comfort eating late at night. It helps me to talk with friends who understand. I have some I know I can call and say please tell me not to eat this and they will help me rethink it and figure out why I want to eat whatever it is. Because I eat to stop feeling or to numb feelings. So I hope you have someone like that!
