Misty's Diary

Tuesday is here. Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday.

My goal for the end of this week is stil 116 lbs (morning weight). Anyways, wanted to write down something I pulled off the net weeks and weeks ago:

  1. Winners are not born, they are made.
  2. The dominant force in your existance is the way you think.
  3. You CAN create your own reality
  4. There is some benefit to behad from every adversity.
  5. Every one of your beliefs is a choice.
  6. You are never defeated until you accept defeat as a relity and stop trying.
  7. The only real limitations on what you can accomplish are those that you impose on yourself
  8. THERE CAN BE NO GREAT SUCCESS WITHOUT GREAT COMMITMENT
 
It's Wednesday. Goal for end of Sunday is still 116 lbs. I haven't really weighed myself today. But I have been eating ok....not great, just ok, but not bad either.

Tomorrow will fly by.
 
While I have not been exercising these past few days, I have been keeping count of my calories and am doing well on that front. My period should end by Saturday, and I plan to weight myself on Sunday morning. We'll see if I have hit the 116. something mark. I hope I can.

Anyways, going to bed.....
 
I have 17 lbs to go. I'm going to change the ticker to reflect the change.

17 lbs is not much compared to other people over here. However, it is proving hard for me to lose. Don't know why.

The plan is to lose 2 lbs this month and then 5 in December and the remaining 10 next year.
 
Was reading a blog for interview prep. Came across this. Very inspiring:

Tell yourself, “I’ve had enough ‘miserable.’ I deserve ‘happy.’”

And you know what?

You do.
 
Oh man. I have *not* being getting my exercise in. The snow started a couple of days ago and that has just affected my mood. Today I felt like crap but I feel pretty good at the moment.

I have 17 more lbs to go and I want to lose them in the same way that I lost my lbs last year- through persistence and exercise and pushing myself until I notice a difference. I don't think I'll truly be happy until I reach my goal. Everyday it bothers me that I have the extra lbs to lose and I am ready to give it another shot and get rid of the last 17.

Tomorrow will be a new day. For now I gotta pray and go to bed! :D
 
I think I may have put back on a lb or two- *sigh* but that all ends as of tomorrow. As of tomorrow, I am following the regimen I did last year. I am also getting a hair cut this week and not going to color my hair. I am going to let it grow its natural color. I need a change.

Last year I did a good job of staying away from sweets and high calorie foods- and I'm going to have to do that again. My will power needs to come back. Also, weigh-ins will be every Wednesday starting Nov 26th.

And I don't feel like being all talk and no walk, so- enough of me rambling and down to some serious work.

The goal for end of December is still 5 lbs.
 
I binged today. Had an unecessary sneakers bar and an unhealthy sandwich. But tomorrow is a new day and I'm going to do better. Weigh-in day is next Wednesday, Dec 3!!
 
Focus on your goal, you can do it, It was only a small binge, let it go, don't dwell on it an move forward

YOU can do it !
 
Had a bowl of Kellogg's corn flakes with one tea spoon of sugar for breakfast- I'm assuming that is 210 calories or so.

Then I had a cup of tea....and I'm probably going for a second one- black tea with a bit of milk....

I'm anxiously awaiting the results of my interview-if I get through there is one more round. I *really* want this and it's driving me nuts just thinking about it. They said they would get back to me "soon". "Soon" to me means 7-14 days. So some time next week or Dec 10th the latest.

Argh. Anyways, off to the showers and then need to see if temp work needs my on-call.

Toodles!
 
So while my eating habits are all over the place at the moment ( as is the case when weekends roll around) I have been balancing it out with exercise. I got my arse to the gym on friday night for an hr ( 3 miles walking and weights) and also exercised for an hr today (aerobics).

My aim is still 5 lbs by the end of December. I've been wanting to start a food journal that I can carry around with me everywhere. I might pick one up when I go shopping- or I might be able to get one from work. I also need a calendar notebook.
 
So I have to get through this week. Days I can get my arse to the gym:

Tues *
Wed night *
Thurs
Fri night *
Sat *
Sun *


Monday wil be a tough day but Tues should be considerably less stressful. Ah, it's snow/raining all week too :( Better than full-on snow I suppose.
 
Well....it's been a crazy couple of weeks, I've been super busy and yesterday I was so exhausted I fell asleep right after I got home.

I'm not going to lie- I have not been to the gym in over a week now. It's terrible, I know. And I have my excuses- work, school, weather. I was thinking about things today and I do realize that if I don't work hard at this that ticker will *never* move.

I don't understand where to start from. Well, I can start on Friday night. Friday nights last year were exercise nights for me. It wasn't the night where I went out with friends or on a date or anything. It was me and the gym, and I was usually one of the two people working out. Strangely enough, I liked working out in an empty gym on a Friday night. I will give it a shot this Friday again.
 
ok it is time for a serious butt kicking, time to get back to that gym and work that butt :gnorsi:

good luck getting to the gym on friday, YOU CAN DO IT ! :)

Lol Trusylver! THANK YOU! *hug* I need a butt kicking! I will do it! And I will report back with an "affirmative, made it to the gym Friday".
 
Hey Misty! How are you?

I've been a gym slacker too! For some reason the cold weather has me all huddled up at home indoors. I need to get it going again. We can do it!!
