Ending the day

So a little pasta for lunch. Small chix cheese steak for dinner. A little Life cereal for a snack. Eh.

For Your Consideration

So yesterday I did not exercise eventhough I could have. I feel like a bad girl. Anyway ended the night with 3 garlic knots and lobster crab Manicotti with aurora sauce. That must have been 1000 cals itself. I don't know people, I have trouble with consistently.

In good newa I did 45 mins on the elliptical, 100 step ups and arms this AM. Only a bowl of Honey Cheerios so far...

Today

Feeling tired and cranky. Trying to get myself geared up for exercise but having a hard time. Honey nut Cheerios for breakfast. Half a banana for a mid morning snack. Some Smart ones mini pizzas for lunch. So far so good.

JAn 22

So yeasterday was OK. Average eating. No exercise due to acupuncture and HOme and GArden Show taking up the whole day.

Consistency is Key

OK so consistency continues to not be my strong point.

Jan 15--good day--35 mins elliptical, 100 step ups, light arm weights--good eating

Jan 16& 17---no exercise--ate out 3 times which never helps. Trying to keep portions smaller even if food is not so great. Lots of errands and obligations getting in my way.

Jan 18--good eating--40 mins elliptical, 100 step ups, light arm weights

Jan 19--adoption info ,mtg fell thru, feeling sorry for myself, took nap instead of exercise, goos eating overall--english muffin and juice, 1 slice broccoli pizza, 1/2 slice plain, small (like i mean 1950s small0 soda, 99% fat free organic turkey tacos, small (1/4 cup ) ice cream

Today--english muffin, hot tea, 1/4 cup red Naked, small turkey and cheese sandwich, 1 cup pineapple, seafood burrito, handful fresh cut fries---------45MINUTES ELLIPTICAL---I need to be more consistent with everything in my life. We need to stop eating out so much. Heidi Montag needs to stop.

Surprised myself.

So far ate--egg and cheese on one half english muffin, tea with skim no sugar, 1/2 serving of corn, 1 garlic toast (which they say was 80 cals), and salad with hard boiled egg, shredded cheddar and ranch, small coke. I had too people---coke is my orgasm. Weight Watchers cheese pizza (370 cals) and an Honest Tea (70 cals). I will have a snack tonight but I don't know what. Surprise---I totally decided not to exercise bc I felt so tired but ended up doing 25 mins on elliptical, light arm weights, 100 step ups.

I know I should be tracking the cals bc they sneak up on you. But I am just too busy for that. I just forget or I don't have easy access to try and look up cals. I have been ion the wieght game so long that I think I judge fairly well. Writing here has helped I think.

I continue to wait for encouraging comments from my friends.

For Jan 13

Rough day. No time to exercise--Rainforest program after school and a poop explosion by the dog. However, ate well.

For Jan 12

Good day, I remember eating good but of course can't remember what. Did 32 mins on the elliptical burning 270 cals, light arm weights and 100 step ups.

Good Day

No exercise due to Daisy Meeting after work but... egg and cheese on an englishe muffin, turkey sandwich and about 15 Sun Chips, Scrambled Cheesy Eggs and and english muffin. 15 SunChips for a snack. Not too shabby. For me. Really people!

Jna 9th Continued.

Lunch was at Panera where I checked calories so it wasn't too bad. However, my daughter picked Red Robin for dinner which was rough.

No Good

Bad day. Raisin Bran for breakfast. Fish and fries for lunch. Three slices of pizza for dinner. Organic fruit bunnies after dinner. Two cups of Honest tea. Horrible day of running around and daughter's dance recital. Too lazy to cook. Also no exercise due to running around.

Continue.

OK following up from yesterday---Cobb salad (prob ate too much bacon and ranch dressing but still better than norm)--like 10 of Ava,s fries and a few onion straws, late night snacked on some SunChips. i know for all you peeps out there this may not sound super healthy but for me it is doable and may evolve into something better. I am sick of dieting for 10 years so the psycho calorie cut makes me want to quit.

In happy news, my husband was able to take the little lady to her dress rehearsal. With the extra time I did 25 min on the elliptical and 100 step ups. So there.

Started today with raisin bran and skim milk. Will prob eat out for lunch.

It has begun. Finally.

OK, OK. I know I have not folllowed through, however, I was on a 2nd antibiotic for a chronic sinus infection as well as had a NAET allergy tx which always causes a bit of insanity. Anyway, I worked out today for the first time in like 3 months. Twenty minutes on the elliptical and about 10 minutes of light arm weights. Nothing amazing but a start. Last year at this time I was working out 5 days per week and was up to 45 min on the elliptical or 1hour on a walk. So far today I have consumed an Honest Tea, some Craisins (sugary I know but now they are gone) and a Fiber Bar. About, 280 cals - 170 burned....if the elliptical calculations are truly correct. Tonight I refuse to cook, however, Steven is bringing home chicken salads. So there, bitches, I am finally throwing down.

Tired

Too tired, long day.

Good Idea

So my friend had an idea to blog for one year on her mission to lose weight, feel good and be healthy. As I am always on a mission to lose weight, I thought Iwould follow suit. Try to hold myself accountable via the blog and my lady friends that I will ask to read it. Now I have a decade of history starting weight loss programs and lifestyle changes. Many have been successful in the short term but none in the the long term. So here goes another try...
