Day 18: Wow… I suck.

by Cindy on September 2, 2012

Okay, so my fears came true. I got really busy with work/family life and I let the ball drop on my tracking here and at My Fitness Pal. Tomorrow starts a new week, and I’m forcing myself back on the bandwagon. :)

Day 13: It’s my birthday…I can cheat if I want to….

August 28, 2012

Happy birthday to me! Tonight, I officially turn 27. It’s a pretty amazing thing for me every year because my dad always tells me the story of the night I was born. I was born 12 weeks early, thanks to placental abruption. I wasn’t due til November, and had Mom & Dad not decided to [...]

Day 12: Need to Get Better with Posts

August 27, 2012

I’m tracking well over at My Fitness Pal, but I’m already getting slack about posting here. With work being so busy today, and my birthday tomorrow, I feel bad because I probably won’t do an in depth post… but at the very least, to prove myself… I’m posting the link to my diary. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/LWatrous

Day 10: Need to Exercise

August 25, 2012

I need a better routine. Getting up in the morning before the little man isn’t really ideal, because I don’t want to accidentally wake him. Exercising while hubby and kiddo are at school takes away from my work day silence, which is certainly golden and necessary given my work load. I am going to try [...]

Day 8: Weigh In #1

August 24, 2012

I weighed in at 174, just one pound lost this week. Not too bad, I guess. Not what I wanted to see, but today sucked. I ate the last two Papa John’s Breadsticks, for breakfast, at like noon. Considering I got up at 7am, I need to do *way* better. I ate a fiber bar [...]

Day 7: Okay, maybe not

August 22, 2012

Hey! Today’s day 7, but I won’t weigh in until tomorrow, so I’m always weighing in on Thursday. I don’t have very good feelings about what to expect, mostly because I feel so damn cruddy. Breakfast I didn’t eat breakfast today! I just didn’t feel like it, but I drank some  hot Chai tea. Lunch [...]

Day 6: Feeling Better

August 21, 2012

Wow. I’m six days in and still loving it. This feeling typically wears off within a few days after this point–so if you’re out there, help keep me motivated. I’m feeling better, but still not tip-top shape. Breakfast  16 oz. chai tea: 0 calories 3/4 c. vanilla almond Special K: 110 calories 8 oz. skim [...]

Day 5: Blah

August 20, 2012

Today, I sent my husband off to the first day of his second (and final) year of Culinary school. You’d think it’d be easy to lose weight around here since he can make such yummy food, but therein lies the problem. His food is yummy, and it’s not always healthy. This year is going to [...]
