perhaps we issue better food control when we know our exercise routine is bust for awhile.

This for me is huge.

I definitely ate better this week knowing I wasn't exercising - I tried to stay just under my range, meet my fiber and sodium requirements and have better overall nutrition. The food I ate counted, it wasn't crap.
 
Oh you're funny :)

I defintely think it's not just calories that count - last week, I stayed in my calorie range but filled a lot of my day with snicker fun bars and little in the way of good nutrition.

This week, I didn't eat that much less overall but lost 3 pounds.

I just know for me, if I'm eating crap and telling myself it's ok because I'm in my "range" then I'm NOT in the reducing mind set I need to be if I want to get this weight off.

And I really want to get this weight off.
It's a priority.
 
Thanks for the encouragement M2M and the welcome back. It is awsome to see the progessing you are making! I am going to try to not to eat crap, and only things that count. I weighted 105 pounds when I got married, dont think I would really want to be that thin again. Congratulations on your weightloss so far! It thought about you when I was walking and listening to my MP3 Player.:eek:
 
Thanks Heidi, and again, welcome back! It's good to see you posting again :)

OK - so I did it - I had my hair cut today (haven't done that since my birthday last January!) So while it's not super short, it's definitely shorter then I've ever worn it! The top layer and the hair along the sides of my face come down to my chin and then the bottom layer flips up at my neck.

Now, if I can only get it to look like this tomorrow!
 
Heya's M2M,
Thanks for visiting me! That is an awesome
reason for the goal you set! You can do it, as much walking as you
do the 4 lbs will melt right off! Goodluck and have a gr8 Sunday,
Tammy:D

Hi M2M!!! I can relate to the weight when got married thing!!! So many people claim it isn't possible to do things like that...but it can be done. I now weigh one pound less than I did at the alter, and it feel awesome!!

Thanks Tammy! I was 30 pounds over weight when I met Bob, so he's never seen me at a 'healthy' weight. Yesterday, he said if I stopped losing right now and just maintained it would be perfect :D As if! ;) I think there's a little bit of insecurity that's going along with me getting fit.

HEY! I think you have the same haircut at me! Oh, and now you'll definatly have a loss on the scale...lol...hey, hair can be heavy!

Oh, not my hair, I have thin, fine and not much of it, hair. As for the style - I think it's one of those styles that might be cute if that hairdresser guy came to live with me, but I have NO idea how I'm going to blow dry it like he did!

It does feel good, doesn't it beckster!?!

I was shocked to realize I am 29 pounds less then the day I got married, I guess I just hadn't looked at the math. I do know that I can't wear my wedding ring right now for fear of losing it. I'll get it sized when I reach my goal.

Well, I'm going to Disneyland today for a girl's day/night out. We'll be eating at Downtown Disney and havign Coconut Mojitos - I've never had one, but the graces assure me they're fantastic! ;) I think my calories will be back loaded today! I still plan on making good choices, or as good a choice as I can while eating in a restaraunt...or maybe I'll just drink my calories today ;)

(I'M KIDDING)
;)
 
Good morning Debi! Disneyland sounds like fun; I can't wait until I go back. (Although, the rate I'm saving, it'll take until I'm 80)

Congrats on losing another 3 lbs!!!

Oooh, congrats on the weight loss. And also, have fun at Disneyland! Man, I cannot remember the last time I went there... It's been years sadly.
 
hey m2m,
just stopping by to see how your weekend went. A haircut huh? Lose any powers? :D

Yesterday, he said if I stopped losing right now and just maintained it would be perfect As if! I think there's a little bit of insecurity that's going along with me getting fit.

I'm beginning to think that no matter what stage in a relationship you're going to get a bit of insecurity when it comes to fitness. I used to be the guy who was always self conscious... just let the hubby know your gettin' sexified just for him :D

Have a great week!
 
Oh mannnnn...my head hurts!

I had a great time yesterday at Disneyland with my girlfriends - wow that place is so much more fun after tequila ;)

I choose NOT to post when I got home last night ;)

I haven't figured the calories, and doubt if I will - I had a good breakfast which was about 220 calories, a handful of grapes before I left and a banana for a snack.

For drinks I had 2 cadillac margaritas, 2 shots of tequila, 1 guiness.
For dinner - I had an asada quesadilla with the sour cream & guacamole - I didn't have any of the chips or the Belgian Chocolates my friends brought in the car.

The quesadilla was big though - I definitely had more then a maintenance day calorie-wize, but considering what I would have done before on an all day and into the night trip to Disneyland, I feel I exercised quite a bit of control :)
 
Wow! Sounds like you had fun!
You can play with the Big Boys (drinking) LOL:D
I hope you have a good day :p
