Chasing away Chubby

Sunny Super Saturday!

This picture was taken June 30th.  It is my before pic.  This is me, I coach my son’s t-ball team.  That cute little guy is my son.  He just recieved his trophy. 

It’s Saturday.  I am sitting at my computer, 2 containers beside me…one a bottle of Evian, another a glass of V8 juice.  I have been sitting here most of the day.  I had to file for financial aid.  I hadn’t done that yet…I am sort of a procrastinator…so I filed that online and blogged and now am blogging again here.  I am hungry.  Not real hunger, mostly just I have that urge to shove something into my mouth, and since I am not going to eat until later, I am sitting here keeping my hands busy.  I actually went to the refrigerator once already.  That peanut butter pie looks really good…Actually it is not  solid, so if I just eat the filling it wouldn’t be cheating on my partial liquid diet would it?!? ***See the shit that floats through your head when your dieting?  I shut the door on the pie.  Good for me.

I worked out yesterday and have every intention of doing so again today.  I did 20 minutes of Denise Austin stability ball legs and core, and 20 minutes of yoga.  Denise Austion is  good.  I really like her workouts.  But she is just so damned peppy!  Some days I can’t take it.  I have to turn down the volume and put on some of my own music. But even with her annoyingly peppy voice I still buy her videos.  They all are usually pretty good, and I don’t get bored with them easily.   I am sore in my stomach…proof that the “core” portion of her videos are working. 

Yesterday’s weigh in went well. I weighed in at 222 which means my average weight for the week was 225!  :)That is a 2 pound loss and I am most definitely happy with that.  My weight today was 22 again, so that is 3 days in a row that my weight is 223 or under.  That is a good sign that there are good, lighter, things to come.

My BF is suppose to take me out to eat later.  The kids went to a ball game with my sisters so I have the afternoon free. That is good because I needed a break.  Their constant bickering was really getting on my nerves.  So when we go out to eat that will be my one meal today.  I think I really need to think through my one meal a day and make sure I am eating- not only stuff I want- but stuff I need too.  I have 3 bags of salad in the crisper that need to be eaten, so I need to plan on eating some salad and other good stuff instead of eating the yummy stuff  I want.  One meal a day, I got to eat  stuff that is good for me too.   On my liquid portion I drink alot of V8, water, tea, S/F jello.  I also bought some of Propel last night to drink later after my work out.  With my fibromyalgia I have to make sure I keep my vitamin intake up or I will be on the couch for 3 days straight and that is not gonna do anybody any good.  Well I am off to do some dishes and laundry and get ready to go out with BF. I will post more later!
