time to reset my goals

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

I think i did okay but not good on my goals, i didn’t really get serious about 2 of them until halfway thru.
Goal #1 was to lose 8 lbs in 3 weeks. I only lost 3 1/2.
Goal #2 was to get over my fast food addiction. I resisted 7 times, and caved 4 times in [...]

i’m jealous

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

I am just now getting close to my pre-thanksgiving weight. Most of the people’s blogs i read went right back to theirs in a week. Not me. I gain 8 lbs in 3 weeks and 3 weeks later i’ve only lost 6 1/2! WTF!
Today was another school day. Thankfully my instructor for the 8am class [...]

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

But i am working on it. I got the wii fit game today and i have played it twice for a total of 1h 45m. I got all sweaty and everything. My daughter got on it this afternoon and beat most of my records, so i got back on it this evening and tried to [...]

had to be at school by 8am

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

I am so not used to getting up early. Somehow i managed to get out of the house by 7:15am with my lunch packed and my trunkload of ceramics tools, having already had breakfast. Of course i still had to stop for gas, so i was about 5 minutes late for class and had to [...]

my last semester of college begins today…

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

And i am at home. I only have classes scheduled for tues and thurs but i need the other days as work days. That’s the way it is with art majors, we have to put so many extra hours in a week that we wind up using every extra available minute as studio time. I [...]

it’s wine night

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

I came to blog my calories simply so i can see how many glasses of wine i can afford tonight. I didn’t eat much today, so i should have plenty of room in my 1200 calorie budget.
Breakfast was 1 c. fiber 1 cereal (160) with 3/4 c. 2% milk (97). I only had 1 cup [...]

i must have acute wiiitis!

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

LOL Actually i just saw a story about wii injuries on the news, so since my arms are still sore 2 days later i immediately diagnose myself as having acute wiiitis!
I got a reasonable night’s sleep last night. I took a melatonin and i assume that did the trick because i was sleeping soundly [...]

I am sore today from boxing and tennis on the wii last night. I guess that proves it was a real workout. I didn’t crawl out of bed until 9am, so i didn’t have time to get any exercise before i had to do my errands.  I also didn’t take the time to eat anything [...]

i don’t know what goes on with me

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

I am a first class self-sabotager. I had the whole day to do whatever i wanted and what did i do? Nothing. I checked my email, listened to the radio, read a few blogs and played spider solitaire. No homework, no exercise, no house cleaning. Nothing. I’m even being lazy about dinner. Lousy hamburger helper.
I [...]

i love having the house to myself

Posted by: billie In: blogging helps

Unfortunately these nice long days of home alone time will be ending next week when i start back to school.  My place is nice and quiet all the time anyway, i don’t know what i’m really complaining about. There is just something about the solitude that is so lovely.
Except for being able to focus on [...]
