The Road to Change...

Thanks guys!!!

So, I've been doing okay. I worked my ass off at Curves yesterday. Usually I do as much as I can without getting myself out of breath. If I'm out of breath then I stop running in place and just start walking in place. Well yesterday I just ran, ran, ran. I was sweaty and I felt like I really took advantage of it and gave myself a good workout. I'm dishing out 40 bucks a month to be at Curves, I think its time I start working out as hard as I possibly can.
 
At Curves today I saw that I was on the board with only about 5 or 6 other people for the most weight loss in the month of December! Wahooo. :D:D:D
 
Excellent chicky - that sounds like me when I work out at Curves - the wmn workign there always comment on my flushed cheeks lol - well as my aunt says the take the money every month - Im glad to hear and see you are doing well :):):)

Thanks Guys...

So, not much going on. But I'm down another lb. So that's pretty good considering I found myself in the kitchen last night eating french bread! Ack. Buut, I didn't go over my calories, but I still shouldn't have ate it.

Anyhoo. I'm gonna try to do a Curves challenge called Amaze Yourself or something like that. You do one thing everyday. So its something to do at least. Sounds fun, I think there's a prize, I didn't read all the details yet.

Have a great night everyone, I'll try to get around to journals soon. :)
 
Congratulations on another pound down, and pushing yourself at Curves! It's so hard to keep going once you hit that point where you're tired, but you did it!
 
Last night, getting ready to eat my last snack for the night, I took a bag of Mini Rice Cakes to the couch, and I was gonna read a book and eat 1 serving, which is 9 rice cakes. So I ate 9, then I said well I'll just have one more serving, I'll still be in calorie range. But as I got immersed into the book, and my hand kept going in, and the rice cakes kept going in my mouth. I knew what I was doing but for some reason I didn't care, I couldn't stop. I ended up eating the WHOLE BAG!!!!!!!!!!!! I counted the calories and it was about 630 calories. I went over my calories for the day by 200. But DAMMIT!!! I haven't over ate in that sort of way in months!!!! A whole bag? Ugh. And afterwards I felt so sick. My stomach was cursing me out something terrible.

I'm so ashamed of myself. So I'm confessing it, getting over it, trying to figure out why I did it, so it doesn't happen again!!!
 
Hey CFL,
Guilt is an over rated emotion - you just go forward.

Any mindless, hand to mouth eating is so hard for me. It's just too easy to do just what you did.

I'm sure next time, you'll remember the thrashing your tummy gave you, and you'll stop at a serving.
 
I know why I did it. I'm lying to myself if I think I don't know why. It's the same old sabotage thing. It's when the bad Jen sits on my shoulder and whispers naughty things in my ear. Damn her!

Yeah, you're right. Just move forward... Thanks.
 
Don't damn her Jen - that bad Jen is the same tough Jen that also comes out when you're in danger, or when you need to be strong.

She just needs to play for the same team ;)

We all have those moments, tomorrow's a brand new day :)
 
Hehe. Thanks M2M. :D

I just got done exercising and its amazing how exercise can cheer you up. Yay for endorphines. :)

Now, I just have to express how much I hate those commercials (just got done seeing one) about a magic food that helps you lose weight.

1. The Yoplait one where the woman is walking around eating yogurt and walks by a bikini hanging on the wall. And then suddenly after a few months she can fit into it.
2. The cereal commercial where the daughter wears her moms old jeans and her mom is eating cereal and watching her daughter wear them. Then after a while she asks for the jeans back and they fit.
3. The milk ones where they show a glass of milk and people walking in front of it, to demonstrate what their body can look like if they just drink 8 oz of milk a day.

Really tees me off. I know those things can be really good and beneficial to your diet, but they don't show those people working their ass off in a gym, or walking, or running, or doing anything athletic.
 
i completely agree with you. this is why when commercial start i start switching programs for several minutes or go and do several squats and don't look at tv. they can really be frustrating. as for that voice... it will shut up eventually. at least i believe so.

have a great day :) Lena
