Reaching For the Dreams....

Ok, I'm up 3lbs... it's frustrating, but I can handle it. Volleyball practice tonight, and horses before that. So, we're good.
 
Just keep an eye on those calories Xorie - and the sodium - you can kick those 3 pounds!
 
Ok, so volleyball was really fun. I was hungry when I got home, but I stayed strong and resisted the urge to eat a pickle. (I'm addicted, and they're loaded with sodium)

And i'm only up 2lbs now. :D

didn't get to go to the horses today, but I AM going tomorrow. Can't wait. :D Got my Jessie something that hopefully will help with her artheritis. *crosses fingers* As of now, she's only sound when she walks, and I want to be able to ride her when summer comes around. When I'm lighter than I am now. :)
 
weighed in at 194 today. Only one pound to drop to be back at where I was. Breakfast was a bowl of fruit loops. I haven't had those in a loooooong time. They were yummy. :)

I dunno what lunch is going to be. Horses after school, then straight to volleyball practice with the boys. The last one before playoffs on saturday. If we win on Saturday, we go to the championships on Sunday. Cross your fingers everyone!

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness...

I Think that i'm going to die...

I just got back from a VERY intensive volleyball practice. My arms feel like noodles, and my abs hurt, and my left buttcheek hurts everytime I take a step.

ouch...

BUT, This is REALLy going to help me lose the weight again. If I just eat right, then, BAM, the weight's just going to fall off. So, it makes me happy. :D

Dinner was a small serving of my grandma's chili. It was good, and I only put a little bit of cheese on it.

LOL Xorie girl you are SO freaking cute. I have never actually laughed out loud when reading someone's diary until I read this gem of a post. Work that left buttcheek! Hilarious....ok I wanted to say I completely understand your craving. I had ONE unhealthy thing left in my refrigerator last night and they were these terrible shrimp eggrolls that typically I don't even like. It didn't matter though, I baked them up and before I could actually eat one, I tossed them in the trash. I know it's wasteful and all but I was actually about to eat them even though the thought of it made me naseous? Crazy. I'm happy to see that you've since dropped those three pounds and you're back on track, and just know that I've been dealing with the same thing, we're in this together ;) I am certainly keeping my fingers crossed for you guys, and I'm sure you're going to do great. Keep it up Xorie!

I'm glad that I made you laugh. It's always a good thing to laugh, as it's the very best medicine. :) Good for you on not eating the eggrolls. I kinda did the same kinda thing today. Mom brought home doughnuts from her work, and I threw out the last two, so they wouldn't tempt me.

and I'll keep working BOTH buttcheeks, thank you very much. I don't want the right one feeling left out. :D:D

I saw 191 on the scale today! :D

But I won't change anything until Monday, when we weigh in.

I'm keeping the salt content down, and it's helping. Amen to that. Dinner was some penne pasta with 2 small meatballs. I made just enough for me, and that was it. Then, 1/4 of a Banana nut muffin from costco. I'm proud of myself for not gobbling down the whole thing. Costco definately makes the best muffins in the world. :D

Snacks were 1/2 a cinnamon raisen bagel (the other half went to Jessie :))
and an apple.

It was a great day today, the sun was shining, I controlled myself, and the day was just good. :)
 
You gutta love those types of days. I love it just being so beautiful out, and eating healthy foods. It makes my self-esteem and happiness levels sky-rocket.
 
Today's weather? Not so nice.

but oh well, the game is today! I'm excited, and I'm not even playing. :D

Breakfast: 1 bowl of POPS cereal and 1/4 banana nut muffin (another quarter from the one I started eating yesterday:))

Lunch: pasta

Snack: last half of the muffin I had started.
 
WE WON!!!!


Omgosh... I had a whole new team out there today. I was astounded, really. I knew that they had the capibility to win, but wasn't completely sure because they have the tendency to argue, yell at each other, or think that volleyball is a one man game. Not today. They were talking, high fiving, and 3 hits almost everytime! I'm so proud of them! :):):)

Other than that,

Dinner was 3/4s of a chicken and cheese quesadilla.

So, I've had a bowl of cereal, 1 full muffin, a bit more pasta than I should have had for lunch, and 3/4's of a quesadilla. and an apple Not too bad if I do say so myself.

Wish us luck for tomorrow! We go to the championship game at 5:15!

Thanks. This game is against one of 2 teams we lost too. Yesterday's game was against the other. BUT, I think we can beat them, just by looking at how both my team, and Villa (the other team) played. *rubs hands excitedly* Well, I would LOVE to have my guys win this thing. We'd get a trophy, and a banner for the school gym. AND, we'd be doing it the first year any of these guys have played volleyball as a team!

And I just can't wait for next year! :D
 
Good to see another volleyball player, I thought we were a dying breed. We have taken out the compeition 2 years in a row, but recently we split into 2 different teams to make things more interesting. (Came up with the name Hot Shots..... seemed like a good idea at the time ;o) Remember, the more fun ou guys have as a team, the more success you will have!!! Good luck with your future successes

Oh good, another volleyball player! :D Thanks for stopping by my diary!
 
I'm getting better at making just enough to eat, and no more.

I realized recently how much i'll eat if it's in front of me. I was shocked really. So I'm now making my food with just enough, then putting everything away so I'm not tempted to get more. Like putting the cereal box away after I pour myself a bowl. or like today, making only 8 spinach raveoli's so that I couldn't eat any more than what I made.

Lunch: 8 Spinach raveolii w/ tomatoe sauce and an apple
 
^ Thats a really good idea, I do that also :D It works too, and if you force yourself to walk away from the kitchen, you think.. I can't be bothered going back in the kitchen now, LOL.

I haven't been here long or kept up with anyones diary, but from your Ticker, thats amazing! You're doing so well :O I'm inspired :D I hope I do as well as you.
 
ok...wow...um...my little brother just picked me up.

I can't remember the last time that anyone picked me up...


it's kinda nice. :)

And sorta frustrating cause my little brother is 4 inches taller than me....:)
