Can I do it? - a diary from a repeat offender

BE STRONG!!! You are tougher than the chocolate!! *Sends good vibes & super girl strength your way*
 
Well guys I did it! Only 15 minutes left in my shift! Got some paper work to do and I am out of here without touching the chocolate!
I am so proud of myself!
Drank 3.5 Litres of water today, am going to fill my 1L bottle once more for the drive home... (1L= ~34oz)...

Good for you!!!

I know exactly how it is... Today I went to the store, I walked past the Krispy Kreme Donut stand... the candy section... the ice cream section... UGH!! I'm such a sucker for sweets. I was holding back with all the force I had... then I thought of someone's signature quote that says "Nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels." Something like that. And I just kinda refeshed myself and walked toward the produce section for more bananas. :)
 
BF just told me that he went to the gym at his work this morning and he has a new appreciation for the work that I have been doing on the elliptical!
He said he had a hard time doing 20 minutes... rookie! :rolleyes:

So cute though!
 
Well I weighed in this morning and I was down 3 pounds. This was a pretty focused week for me and it paid off! :D
I am so happy about that!
Hopefully this week I can do the same!! 17 pounds to get to my CUBA goal!!
go, go, go!!

Hope everyone else had a good weigh in!?
 
Haven't been on for a few days...
Been doing okay though.. worked out Saturday, Sunday and Monday so far.. (Today is Monday)
Did really well with my eating today.. opted for salad bar instead of french fries with my lunch. I had to go out for lunch with a group from school.

I am really fearful that 3 pounds was too big of a loss and that I will gain some of it back this week. It's going to be tough to keep it off and lose more this week!? :eek:
Maybe not who knows?

I have posted some new pics on my before and after page... I don't know if there is much of a difference...

Well I lost another 3 pounds this week! I haven't been here much but I have been working my program! (I know I sound like an alcoholic!?)
I worked out every day this week!! And ate mostly fruits and veggies!!
Feeling really good that I can keep it up for 8 more weeks!
I had a little exciting moment this week that if I can lost 2-3 pounds every week until my trip I could exceed my CUBA goal and I might be in the 160's when I go! That would be so great! I don't want to expect too much from myself because I know 1-2 pounds is realistic...
But a girl can dream can't she???:p :D :p :D
 
Sitting here soooo bored!;) zzzzz
I am working at my crisis counsellor job tonight! And the phone lines have been reeeeeeeaalllllllly quiet. But hey no chocolate in the room this time! SO THAT'S GOOD!

Got a little over an hour to go and then almost an hour drive... can't wait to be in bed!

Hope everyone else had a good Saturday?

Didn't binge on anything but smoking came to mind... (Been quit almost a year!) Didn't smoke either...will be strong, and make a nice healthy supper!

Gonna go to spark people for some ideas!
Have a great night everyone...

Hello Rotten,
Was in the diary neighborhood and stopped by to say
hi and see how your doing? Sorry you had a stressfull day!I have
been craving crap for 2 weeks now I was hoping it would pass by now
but lastnight I managed to eat 1 cupcake 2 cookies and a twix out of
my kids halloween candy geeeesh!I went and bought some more slim
fast peanutbutter crunch bars(I reccomend these if you have a sweet
tooth)dead on a butterfinger!
Well hope your Tuesday goes better for ya and spark does have some
gr8 recipies!Tammy:)
 
Funny you would suggest those... that's exactly what I had this afternoon instead of hitting the vending machine for a treat...
Another good thing is the Thinsations... the oreo or chips ahoy ones are good and they are only 100 calories each packet.
Gonna try the Japanese Chicken from Spark people tonight...
 
Rottengirl came from a message board that I used to belong to about rottweillers... I have a sweet girl who is a rottweiller dog and that is where rottengirl came from... I assure you there is nothing sinister about it. :D
 
Rots are awesome.

When my wife and i got married we had a german shepard that was colored like a rot. Anyway a stray rot was out and about, and someone thought it was my wife and i's dog, so they put him in our back yard. well, i had to let the dog out, and i was certain I was going to get mulled (sp). So i opened the gate, and took off running as fast as i could to get away. well then i felt this wet feeling on the back of my knee, and i thought to myself...oh great, the dog just bit me, badly and i am in shock. thats my blood i feel. well, it wasn't, it was the dogs wet tongue. he was the friendliest dog ever.
 
Yes they are amazing dogs! IF THEY ARE TRAINED RIGHT! Some people get a rottie just due to the 'tough' dog reputation and they are abusive or neglecting of it and then that's where this breed gets it's bad reputation. They are dogs that LOVE people, and the biggest punishment that I can give my dog is to make her go lay in her bed away from the people... it just breaks her heart. She is sooo sweet.
I am a teacher in a small town, I used to bring my dog to school with me when I worked with the high needs kids. They loved her!
It's funny though, we aren't too worried about being broken into because people know I have a rottie, but we have jokingly described what she might do if someone were robbing the place.
First of all, she's a big chicken shit, so she might sit in the corner of the couch, really still and hope to not be noticed... but if she is noticed she will go up and lick the robber to death..."sure you can take that TV and that computer, can I get the door for you? Can I give you a kiss on your way out!?" LOL...
We also have a miniature pinscher that is her mini-me. They are quite a funny pair... but the min pin is the rough and tough one. She will growl at the rottie and be quite ferocious.. Our rottie is actually quite afraid of her.. The 12 pound min pin is the alpha dog in our home! It's hilarious!
Well Tri, you got me talking about my dogs, I never shut up then!
:p :D :p :D
