Kaitie's Open Diary

In many cases a lot of vegetables are catabolic and a 200 caloric intake may equate into a 400 burned deficit of calories, again a lot depends on a lot in this situation, what veggie(s) ?? canned with sugar added ?? cooked in butter ?? blanched in oil ?? and so on. Outside of small amounts of roasted red potatoes, there isn't great hope for diet-type results for that family. All one can hope for is diligent portion control.
 
We haven't had a teacher's room for 3 years. We're too overcrowded with specialists. We don't even have a fridge or a microwave. My concern is stress and varying what I bring to school enough that I can eat it until the end of the year without being tempted to just skip lunch and get a burger on my way home. Variety is the key here :)
 
Your doing great Katie!Your exersice routine looks like a butt kicker.I do 60 situps and thats realllly making myself after 40 I hurt lol!And congrats to your husband I think he can do it.I have lost 19 lbs in 21 days and not just water my pants are loose (18's) my face is thinning and people are noticeing you gotta remeber I weight in april 255 so some people haven't seen me since then and I lost a total of 43 lbs this year, I think I wrote this some where but at the end of may my parents house caught fire they were rushed to university hospital and there they stayed over a month on vinalators do to smoke my mom had to have a trache tube put in well I fell off the wagon in june made it from 255 to 214 then bam ate do to deprssion!They are fine now except house has until oct to be finished!

^ Great job with the sit-ups...they are not easy. :) But the results are going to be fantastic!!! *dreams of her flat tummy*

The good news is that my clothes are all baggy....my shirts too, the sleeves on my tanks tops keep fallin' down!! Yeah!!

The bad news...I was way higher on my calories this weekend than I wanted. Nothing over 1700 calories but still...I was trying for 1100-1200. I'll snap back to it tomorrow. I hope I can get that pesky pound off by Tuesday so that I can officially say '15 pounds' when (if) people notice that I've lost weight.

More good news! My brother-in-law who was left flat broke and heart-broken when his bitch of an ex-wife left him 1 1/2 ago is getting MARRIED!!! Yeah!! I love his girlfriend, she's so freakin' nice and they look so good together!!! YEAH!!!

Ok, see ya'll later!
 
YAY Kaitie!! Baggy clothes!! Good for you!!
Good luck on the weigh-in tomorrow. I'll cross my fingers for you. :)

Wahoo! Thanks everyone!! I just love coming here and seeing all of the friendship and support! *hugs everyone*

Today was good! Probably burned about 2000 calories building Shadow his little dog house---ok John probably burned that much...but I did my fair share of the work!

Went to the gym and did:

150 sit-ups
150 torso twists
60 reps on the compound row machine
30 chest presses
30 overhead presses
30 bicep curls (oowwwy)
3 miles on the bike

Does anyone know how to make yourself less desirable to the pesky mosquito?? I swear, there could be 50 people in a crowd and every mosquito attacks me!!

I wish! I'm allergic to bugspray, so I never use it:eek:

Here's wishing you a great, calorie-burning week!
 
Thanks, you too!!!

Tomorrow I get to sit with all the other music teachers in the district and listen to some random person drone on and on for 6 hours about something that probably doesn't relate to my subject at all. Oh joy. I also get to see my old collegue who is a complete idiot--thank goodness he transferred to another school this year, I don't think I could put up with him on a daily basis again. When I met the new music teacher at my school (who seems really nice) she asked me why he left and my intention was to only say 'Because he didn't get along with the principal.' but unfortunately I have this nack for saying things outloud when they should be left unspoken...and when she said 'Why didn't they get along' I blurted out 'Probably had something to do with her (the principal) not wanting him to call the kids idiots anymore.' As soon as I said it I had one of those 'oooooooooooh' moments but can't take it back now. I just hope that she doesn't say anything to him tomorrow. Anyway, I should be off to bed--I actually have to work tomorrow after a nice 10 week break. :)
 
OY FREAKIN' VEY I hate staff development day. So I'm a music teacher---why was the entire 'development day' on writing? It took my stupid supervisor the entire day to tell us the 4 types of writing? Oh my heck, it was all I could do to not scream. And to top it all off it started to rain and my puppy was outside---I had high hopes that he would use his dog house but I guess I'll have to wait to find that out because he got himself completely tangled around something!! I hope he wasn't tangled up the whole day...poor little thing!!
