50 Pounds to Subaru Journal

Hey hun ... Ive been reading your journal and it looks like you're doing well! 20 lbs!! Thats awesome! Keep it up! Yes, exercise is like magic ... for me, it's just the whole getting to the gym haha* But you are right - it works wonders!!!
 
Oops :) Yesterday I went a little wild. I didn't exercise, and I ate a bunch of stuff. I didn't count, but probably ended up around 2300 calories.

But that's OK, I'm back on track today again. I needed the celebration day.

Someday I'll learn how to celebrate without food.

I slept at my mother's last night, so I don't know the damage I did yet. I was running 5 days ahead of my goal line yesterday, so I have time to make this up.
 
Homecooked food is the devil ... haha well not really, it's actually great and usually good ofr ya BUT I know when I go home my mom cooks too much and I also eat too much! haha* but luckily for you you are ahdead of schedule and doing totaly awesome!!!! Go YOU! :)
Thank you for your post ... It gave me what I needed to get through today ... I was feeling kind of down on myself becuase it seems like just such a hard journey, but you made me realize that with a few small changes and realizing a few things that I can;t live without and how to revise them .. that i can do it. Nothing comes easily and weight loss and fitness isn't going to either ... it didn't take me 1 week to get to 222 lbs, right? So I know it is not going to just JUMP off of me! haha* Thanks for the advice :)
 
I'm back up to 194.0 today, but that's to be expected after a day of solid eating.

I have a lot of stress at work right now. We are worried money issues and thinking about what staff we should keep. It's tough because I work for my church, and I also serve on the church council that decides where the money goes. So it's like I have to consider if we should keep my own job. That's messed up.
 
Don't feel too bad about the extra pounds, I think a lot of us gained a little this week - I know I did. But next week will be better.

And Yipes!! What a tough possition to be in, hopefully you'll figure something out that doesn't involve you losing your job. Good Luck!
 
I had the meeting with our chairman yesterday. It went very well and I am glad all of the weight is off me now. We will be talking more with the entire council on Monday night.

I have slacked off and have gained again. Last night I went and bought all new food and have recommitted. I think part of my problem is that I was aiming too low on my calories, only eating salads and lean cuisine pizza. There is only so long I can do that. So I got more fruit and the makings for cabbage soup, and I'm quite happy. I discovered fruit in my first month or so and kind of forgot about it. I finally remembered that fruit is how i satisfied my sweet tooth that first month.

I don't know how much I gained, but I will know tomorrow and I'll post then. I'm going to go work out now, and then I'm going to make sure I get started in the mornings again too. For reals this time :)
 
Heya's Bean,

Argh! Up to 195.2 this morning. Back on the bandwagon though!

My primary temptation right now is the taco bell chicken enchilada grilled stuft burrito. 680 calories of splended taco bell-ness.

I've been away for FOREVER! My computer broke.

This is kind of funny - I was about to say that once again I am not doing so well but am "recommitting". But, it seems like each time I say this the number I've "Jumped up to" is lower, so hey...I'm doin' alright.

I'll post real numbers and do the tag deal tomorrow
 
Hi Beany!! Sucks your computer broke but I'm with HB - thats just what they 'do'..lol

Keep up the great work!! You're doing fabulous!! :D:D:D
 
Hey hey! Forget what I said earlier about getting back on the bandwagon, apparently I never fell off! This morning I got up to step on the scale for the first time in days to discover I was at 191.6! My target goal for today was 191.7! I survived the holidays!!!!
 
Computer's been down again. Well, the internet at work is anyway.

I'm pushing through till tomorrow, end of month goal is 191.0, and I'm currently at 191.2, so right on track. Here's hopin'!
 
Well - I made the end of the month goal at 191 and then have been destroying my progress this last week. My internet went down again so no support from ya'll. Then, I was on the rag. Then, I got a cold. All of these things conspired together to keep me sitting at home and eating on a whim.

I really want to get back on track and am going to do what I can tomorrow. I'm going to read all of ya'll's journals and get reaquainted with the goings on around here.
