I did weigh myself on Wednesday – 199.2. Not too bad.. that’s about 1.5 lbs more than I was a month ago but it’s still 12 lbs less than when I started last year and it’s still below 200 (barely). Yes!
My goals, kept on SparkPeople, are to keep between 1200-1500 calories and to [...]

Staying OP so far this week. I’m a bit upset that WI on Wednesday didn’t go very well. What I’m really hoping to see is loss of inches at the end of the January Exercise Challenge. I’ve been working out diligently and consistently for the past 2-3 weeks. It has been [...]
He isn’t out to sabotage me
Posted in Daily Updates on January 14, 2008 | 1 Comment »
So my bf likes to bring me beer, bourbon, cookies, ice cream and potato chips as a sign of affection. Add to that the chicken, shrimp and po’boy restaurant that he frequents and the McD’s he buys for his kids every Friday. I often can’t help but think that all he wants to [...]
Gearing up for the weekend

I am trying to psych myself up for this weekend. They are typically the days where most of my weekly points are used up without mercy. This has got to change and I’m the only person who can change it, right? I need to reread previous tips on how to handle the “off-days”. [...]

Finally I had a day of peace. The kids are back in school and I have this week off before the new semester. It was so quiet I didn’t know what to do with myself. Most of the day, I confess, was spent on my butt watching daytime TV and playing video games. [...]

I can’t wait until the kids start school next week. They are driving me nutso! They are loud, obnoxious, messy and … well … kids. I love them and all but am dying for the break. They are finally enrolled in pre-school and after-school care starting Monday. That gives [...]

I am starting my new year at 201.4 after a 5 lb gain in a month and a half. But let’s not dwell on the negative, right? I’ve learned a lot this year and am ready to add to that now.
1) My weight loss goal is attainable. The weight so far [...]
Normal days

It’s still the holiday season and there won’t be a “break” from the noisy kids for another week, yet everything feels back to normal. No more balancing road trips, Christmas presents and decorations on top of regular daily activities. Finally there is some breathing room.
I’ve never been much of a New Year’s [...]
