I’m not sure what to report tonight. I know what I need to do. I know that what I’ve been doing works. I just haven’t been doing it lately. We had a baseball-themed “picnic” at work today, and, of course, I indulged. I could have just had a little splurge, [...]

OK, tonight’s post has nothing to do with weight loss, so if you don’t want to read, feel free to click off now.
I’ve been watching bits and pieces of the Democratic National Infomercial, er, I mean, Convention, this week, and I plan on watching bits and pieces of the Republican National Infomercial (sorry, Convention!) next [...]

Posted in weight loss on August 26, 2008 | 3 Comments »
This last week has not been good as far as my meal plan and exercise plan goes. I’ve been back from vacation for over a week now, and I’m still having trouble getting back on track. Note to self – next vacation, stick to the food logging and eating plan!!
As a co-worker reminded me today, [...]
08-20-08 – Back from vacation

OK, technically, I’ve been back from vacation for two days now. I haven’t posted anything yet, because, frankly, I’ve been having a hard time getting back into the daily routine of things. I’ve been back at work for two days, and that’s fine, but I’m still having trouble getting back into keeping my food and [...]

I wasn’t going to weigh in again until after vacation, but on Monday morning’s weigh-in, I was so close to the 35 pounds lost mark (I was 0.4 pounds away), I decided to check again this morning. It’s official – 35 pounds lost since the beginning of April! Whoo-hoo!!
So, my vacation goals now are (1) [...]

Whew, made it through the day today! My vacation officially started at 5 PM today, although I’m not actually going on vacation until Thursday. I must say I really need some time away from work. I was starting to get a little fried, so hopefully having off until next Tuesday will help.
Nothing else to report, [...]

This has been a very good week. I stayed on my eating plan for the whole week, with the only glitch being Saturday night’s dinner, which was at a restaurant. I overdid it a little bit, and ended up being 130 calories over my limit for the day. But, I was 130 calories, or more, [...]

Even though I’m only going to be going on vacation for half a week, I’m ready for it, and I’m going to make the most out of it. On Wednesday, my father and one brother are taking the bus into Philadelphia, where I’ll pick them up. They’ll stay here Wednesday night, then on Thursday morning, [...]
Got the 30 pound bling!

I’m thinking this was a good idea to start weighing myself twice a week! I was close to 30 pounds lost on Monday, but not quite there. Now, I’m there, and I’m part way to the 35 pounds lost mark! Hoo-aahh!!
