My grandparents anniversary party went well. I overdid on salted nuts and ate three Hershey’s kisses. I only had one bite of cake because it wasn’t very good and so I wasn’t going to eat it just because it was cake. Not too bad. I passed on all the pasta and stuck with the salad, grilled chicken breast and green beans. I did have a small glass of red wine, cause it was a family event and I didn’t have any valium.
Exercise has been my downfall. I just haven’t been doing it. I still don’t know why. I just did an hour on the elliptical tonite and I feel fantastic. I love doing it WHILE I’m doing it. So I don’t know what this mental block is I have. I have to figure that one out. Once I figure that out, I think everything else will fall into place.
Unfortunately, I weighed in at 160 this morning. UGH. I went out to lunch with my mom and sister yesterday. Mexi-cali which is my fave. We went thru 4 baskets of chips and salsa as well as our entrees. And then I took the kids to see Bolt. I ate a TON of Skittles and a whole package of Red Vines. I don’t even LIKE Red Vines!! Plus, there were many handfuls of Wheat Thins at work. My mom has boxes of them all over the store and office. They are everywhere and I find myself eating a handful without even realizing what I’m doing. I need to get a handle on that.
My water intake has been lacking just like the exercise. I drink Coke Zero all day long. I’m sure this, the lack of exercise and all the extra sodium are what has contributed to the extra two pounds. My goal is to have those gone along with two more by Friday, weighing in at 156. I can DO this. I figured that if I lose 2 pounds a week over the next 5 months, I’ll be to my goal weight of 115 ON my birthday. I CAN do this!
