I gained a pound this week. Actually 1/2 pound from last week, but after my “official” weigh in last Sunday, the scale dipped down to a solid 156, all through the rest of the week until yesterday. I’m trying to stay cool about it, one pound– big deal! But you know how that can weigh [...]
I’m bummed that the weather’s getting cooler. Just when it started to feel like summer, now it’s starting to feel like fall.
I’m trying to mentally plan ahead, as in what will I wear for my walks and runs? When our road’s covered in snow and ice, how do I get back into the [...]
I’m starting to notice lately, as I inch closer to my goal weight, that I am feeling a teensy bit of anxiety. When I’m out walking or running, lost in thought, lately my mind keeps returning to THE GOAL. I’m sure it’s natural to feel nervous about reaching your goal and maintaining it. The possibility [...]
I want to cry, for joy! I’m down 2.5 lbs from last week!! Not to count my chickens before they hatch or anything, but 2.5 pounds from now I’ll officially be in the normal BMI range! Yay! Then another pound will put me at the -40 mark. AAaaaaaaahahaha!
(This is me mentally jumping up & down). [...]
It’s hard to find motivation to get out and run in the hot and humid weather. I just want to lay about with a cold beverage and do nada. My brain is melting! My mornings are spent trying to shake off the heaviness of a semi-sweaty night, and I feel like a walking zombie. No [...]
Nursing a food hangover today. Dragging and listless. Yuck.
But damn, dinner was good last night at Chili’s. We never eat out anymore, so it was fun to go and get waited on. (Do you know by the way that they place the lighter choice meals in the back of the menu, opposite the desserts page? [...]
I’m so happy about my new haircut! It’s, swing-y and layered, and still looks long. Don’t you just love that just-got-a haircut feeling? She took a lot off, cut lots of layers & snipped the multitude of split ends. I feel 5 pounds lighter! Hooray! A great reward for losing 35 lbs.
Felt pretty lethargic today. [...]
It’s really hot. I blew off exercise yesterday after 27 days straight of walking and running. Felt like crapping out today too, but dragged my hot hiney to the treadmill in the COOL basement and got a run in. Aaah, so much nicer than running in the sticky heat with buzzing mosquitos. The tv [...]
I can’t believe it. I went all afternoon without so much as a hunger pang. It must be the weather… today and yesterday it finally felt like summer, high 80’s, low 90’s. After my walk tonight, I took my shower and then realized I should eat something. Could have eaten a slice of watermelon and [...]
Made DH take a few new pics… my fav is the new side view, although my arm is probably hiding some of my muffin tops. Also I may be sucking in my stomach a little…
Spring 2009 @ 171 lbs… and August 2009 @ 158 lbs
Side view, 171…. and @ 158
Back view, 171… and [...]
