My little black diet book

So at work we have had to put up a lemonade stand and different people have run it every two hours. I am really glad it is over. You couldn’t go anywhere with out being hit up by someone to get some lemonade that was super sweet and had way to many calories. The hard part is you have to support you coworkers. So you get your glass of lemonade.  Then there were no healthy snacks.  Totally sucked, I am not the only one looking for a health alternative. So needless to say it was a little hard to sell. I must say I am glad that stress is over. Now on to being in the fish bowl… NOT COOL! This is going to be super stressful, but I will stick to my life change!

I have felt horrible the last two days and it is pulling into the third. I hope today is the last of this bug that I have. I forgot how bad it sucked to be sick. Normally the only thing I have to fight of is allergies. At least with allergies I don’t feel like I have been on a fishing boat in the middle of a storm. I have, however, been eating appropriate portion sizes and watching what I am putting im my mouth. I have dropped down a pound since being sick. I guess if I were to look on the bright side, there is at least one good thing about being sick.

Yes I did it. I had a lot of fun and only had two drinks…Normally I am slamming back shots of jager with my sister fience. I am the only one who will drink them with him. I was very aware of my diet and what made me pack on the last 50 lbs sooooooo I drank lots of water yesterday and  took the stairs. As I always say, it’s the small things that count!

So the big day has arrived. I have had nothing but junk food all week and I will probably have more junk food today. My plan of action, portion sizes and drink lots of water. I have had way to much soda lately. I am going to have to go back to no soda at all for a month to get back on track. I had done so well giving up soda pops.  I have not weighed in for a while, I have occassionaly checked my weight. I keep going up and down on this last pound. I know if I stop getting so stressed out at work that I could start losing the weight again. That and go back to eating the fish. I said I would last week but I didn’t meet my goal. (  This week will be different. I have managed to get up early by 30 mins each day so I can now start to exercise in the morning. People were right. It is so much easier to skip exercising in the evening after you have had a long day. If I just put it first then maybe I can stick with my goal. Besides I want to go to Cobo San Lucas in the spring and that is when I am getting a dress for my sisters wedding. So with my time running out and my need to lose the weight growing stonger I guess I should get off my butt and do something during the superbowl besides just sitting on the sofa eatting chips and little Smokies.  Who’s idea was it to make those little sausages anyway. I love those things and they are so dangerous to my diet!!!!!!

Yeah, I am my biggest road block to losing. This week, the only healthy food choice I have made was to eat tuna for lunch.  So I have lost my commitment to myself. Time to regain it. I am going to start keeping a food log on here. I will start out with what my goal is for the day. Then if I deviate from that I will log what I did wrong. If I was not able to stick to the plan then I will write my general mood for the day.  I guess while I am at it I will keep an exercise log too.  Make sense to me, I haven’t been exercising lately either.  So here is to helping me!

Today was not my best day. I woke up late. No exercising in the morning. Grabbed a thing of Oatmeal and a can of soup. I managed to eat the oatmeal for breakfast. I didn’t get a morning snack, lunch or afternoon snack. Things were just out of control today. Before I knew it, it was already 6pm.  I really wanted to stop by Toco Bell and eat half of their menu. I did manage to stay away from the Toco Bell, but only to find Wendy’s. I must say compared to the 2 bean burritos, 2 crunch tocos and nachos bell grande that I wanted, the Grilled chicken sandwich and spicy chicken sandwich was a good choice. I didn’t give in to the temptation of the fries or cheesebergers. I am very happy with my choices. Now as soon as my stomach settles I will pop in that exercise tape and get my boot camp work out. I used the slim in 6 yesterday and got the farthest I have been on the tape. I must say even thought the day started out bad I feel like my choices were ok today.  Yesterday wasn’t bad either. Now only if the scale would see it my way and let me lose a few lbs!
