Or is it that I should be committed?!
A.M. weigh-in: 155.4
It’s amazing that I actually lost weight considering the amount of BBQ chicken pizza I consumed yesterday.
TOM showed up this morning, and I can already feel the return of my (relative) sanity. My hormones make me CRAZY - this is so not right!!
I’m bound and determined to start blogging everything I eat: the good, the bad, and the churros!!
I pulled a muscle in my shoulder at Disneyland - is that a sign of old age, or what?! Between that and my knee, the gym is out right now. I have my knee MRI follow-up appointment next Tuesday, hopefully I’ll get green-lighted for surgery in the next month and this will all be a distant memory!
Weight Watchers tonite. I’m taking a pass on the weigh-in. It’s up, way up - but it’s not accurate due to bloating, etc… and I don’t want to get all bummed out. So I’m going to the meeting, but it’ll be another 2 weeks til I weigh in again (I’ll be at Disneyland next Wednesday for Skye’s 5th birthday!) Things will be settled back into a more normal range by then. I’ll take that one when it comes. At least I’m not bailing on the meeting completely.
Breakfast: banana, 1 packet lower sugar oatmeal
Snack: 1/2 c hummus and 2 c. snap pea pods, handful movie-theater type popcorn
Lunch: Smart Ones fajita chicken pizza (awesome! Very flavorful!!)
I’m going to see Ghosts of Girlfriends Past tonite. I love Jennifer Garner (and Matt ain’t too hard to look at either!) I am determined not to have a snackfest at the theater!! NO NO NO!! But if I do, I WILL blog it. Maybe I’ll shame myself into some type of self-control if nothing else!
UPDATE 2:40PM
Snack: WW peanut butter bliss bar
I’m totally out of Diet Coke and need to make a run… am seriously considering going thru McD drive thru for Diet Coke and an ice cream cone. Soft serve is mostly air, right??!!
UPDATE 4:49PM
Snack: McD ice cream cone - totally eaten and very satisfying.
I’m looking at it like this: it was one of those cravings that I would have stewed about all day and ended up eating a box of Junior Mints and probably some nachos at the movies cause I didn’t get the ice cream cone earlier. Craving is appeased and I’m getting work done instead of sitting here still obsessing about it.
Dinner: Eating Right Butternut Squash Ravioli frozen entree
Food SHOULD be done for the day. Really. I don’t need to eat any more. I will be strong at the movies. Matthew McConaughey is yummy enough!
UPDATE 9:47PM
I decided that I was being a total chicken-shit and weighed in at Weight Watchers tonite. At first, I really wished I hadn’t since I hit a new all-time high of 160.2!! But now, I’m really glad I did cause it has fired me up. I’m sitting here right now wanting to go graze in the kitchen even though I’m not at all hungry, just tired and a little restless. And then I see that number in big glowing red numbers in my head and I just down that grazing instinct real quick. I’m going to hold on to this for a while. Maybe this was finally the kick in the ass I really needed!!

I have gone thru a drive thru for just a diet coke more times than I am proud to admit. But if you do it and need a treat, grab the $1 menu yogurt parfait. It is actually good! And not just good by McD standards but actually good.
McD’s cone is only 150 calories! I treat myself to that too when I need an ice cream fix … although it doesn’t really taste like TRUE soft serve ice cream.
Had to chuckle about the churros - I am glad I am not the only one who succumbed to them last night. And I am deep in the PMS, when I literally turn into a different person. Tonight I was driving to the gym and debated hitting the dunkin drive thru instead.
Nah, I went to the gym.
That is the number I hit that made me just about cry since my low was 139! What the frick could I have been thinking to allow myself to get back to the 160’s?! Just that word “sixties” makes me want to kick my own ass. HARD. So now I am at 156, but it is not dropping fast. hopefully just due to the weight lifting. Hopefully.
