Hello

Stress is a mutha....leave home without it.   I am at 371 thank God, after gaining 4 pounds two weeks in a row is a real downer. I knew I did not gain all that weight in that amount of time. So I have lost 10 pounds in 1 week....the body has a serious sense of humor and I was not laughing. Ok my goals seem more attainable now.   I still don't have much time to get on line.

Hi Again

Life is moving forward, for some strange reason it won't just wait for me.   Well you know me, it is going to be 80 degrees today. I hope not to be in the house until night. Oh no my TOPS meeting is today. I want to be outside....:scared:

New Day Friday

Too many people have been talking about bacon. So what do I have this morning. Bacon and scrambled eggs. I have eaten 1 strip and about 2 forks of eggs and I'm almost stuck. I think that's enough until later.   I wish I had put my pedometer on first thing this morning because I was up and down the stairs and running around to fix my breakfast and lunch and get dressed. Whewww

Thursday

I did get my 10,000 steps in and it was not easy easy. I had about 100 to go before bed so I'm stomping around with my daughter and then realized I did not put the pedometer back on. Duhhhh so I gave it to her and told her to get it. LOL I walked in place with her and even ran as I did when I did not have it on. LOL so it said 10,130 something but I know it was more. LOL   What did I eat.   Baked potato, 1/2 porkchop, baked chicken, string beans I messed up I did have ice cream yesterday.

They feel really good now.   Gotta get them ready for the Summer.

Tuesday

Wigh In day I'm ready. I saw a scale on sale somewhere that goes up to 380. I'm thinking about getting it. Waiting until Tuesday weigh ins are so nerve racking sometimes.

OK I lied

Today it is 44 days until Spring. I'm not sure what I was smoking when I wrote 31 days but I'm glad to see some extra days to get some more weight off.   I am at 374 when I was at 372 last week. I want to get out of the 370's NOW. I have been playing in the 370's since November. That is unacceptable.   I have to say I got serious again in Decmber about losing weight and I have been pretty consistant with losing. See a gain last week was discouraging and I try not to let it bother me but

31 DAYS

31 days until Spring :omg: I'm glad I'm already exercising and not waiting for the warm weather to start exercising. 1.9.07 -3(376):eek: 1.17 -3(373):clap2: 1.23 -1(372) 1.30 +2(374):bored So I had lost 4 pounds since beginning bootcamp but put 2 pounds on last weigh in. I really hope it is muscle. I really think it is but needless to say I want the scale to always go down regardless.

Thursday

Back to the gym this morning 1 min on ellipt, 20min treadmill, lat pulldown.   I can see my body changing. I can feel bones ready to show through the fat. LOL   I love LBT and my journal, I feel so comfortable here venting for all the world to see. LOL:eek:   My heart is smiling for thickchickintexas

Gained

WT*&%*#(@ OK it's not really that serious but I don't like to see the scale go up at all.   Was 372 Now 374   Yes I pigged out after weigh in on a cup of light rocky road ice cream and a piece of cake from Safeway. I thought about jogging in place last night but I didn't. I went to the gym this morning and did 20 min on the treadmill.

MONDAY WOOOHOOO

It's Monday we get to do it all over again. LOL   I went to the gym Friday after work and Saturday. I did not go yesterday or this morning. I plan on going at lunch and after work today.   I did go to a program for Weight for God. I like any type of weight lost support groups. By their scale I have lost a pound this week. LOL I will have to kick some butt today and tomorrow to get my TOPS scale down. I was shooting for 3 pounds this week but if I don't hit 3 I know will fall amoung the s

Thank God

It's Fridayyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!   I'm here, I went to the gym when I got off yesterday and this morning. When I go I normally do 2 min on the eliptical thingy 15 or 20 min on the treadmill and between 2-4 weight machines working my arms and legs. I am normally there from 25 to 45 minutes. At home I run up and down the stairs. I need to incorporate more in at home.
