Diet Daze

I haven’t posted in a few days, but I’m still dieting.  I went with my husband on his National Guard weekend, so I didn’t post these past few days.  Basically, I’m back where I was on Thursday.  I went to a wedding on Friday (small disaster– subway during the day because DH was part of [...]

I tried something new last night, and it was so good that I had it again tonight:  fish tacos.  Now, for some of you, fish tacos might not be all that adventurous, but I had never had them, so I made my own (very low calorie) version at home.  I usually bake my fish, but [...]

So, if you’ve read my recent posts, you know that I’ve been very low in calories while my diet is supposed to be around 1000-1200 on most days.  I hadn’t been counting the flax oil capsules that I take (nine per day, three with each meal), and that in itself is 90 calories.  I only [...]

Today went very well.  I ate just what I was supposed to, and I had a really great workout.  I’m also not hungry at all.  It’s only 10:40, though, and I don’t go to bed until 2 am, so there’s still time, lol.  I do have a planned snack, though, so hopefully that will carry [...]

Well, this weekend could have gone perfectly, but I did a little too much baking.  I had muffin and cookie mixes that were going to expire, so, rather than let them go to waste, I made up the cookie dough and baked the muffins.  My husband will eat the muffins (that is, if I don’t [...]

Today started off poorly (I succumbed to a cookie dough ball for breakfast), but I decided to straighten up and do well for the rest of the day, and, surprisingly, that worked.  DH suggested pizza for dinner since we’re re-plumbing the house this weekend (no water, and we’re trying to get it done ASAP so [...]

Once again I’ve been doing a lot of travelling and have been really busy during the week, making it hard to blog.  I’m basically just holding steady, I guess, but that’s better than gaining.  When I’m away from home, I find it really hard to eat well.  For one, there are usually poor options for [...]

I sort of disappeared for a while after I re-signed to start my program for another 17 weeks.  I’ve been maintaining more or less for the past couple of weeks.  My grandfather had knee surgery, and I went home to stay with my grandma who had a stroke recently and can’t really take care of [...]

I haven’t posted in a few days, but it’s not because I’ve fallen off the wagon.  I went with my husband to his national guard’s weekend and wasn’t near a computer.  Things are going well, for the  most part.  Unfortunately, I haven’t been all that adherent to plan, but I made good choices, so I’ve [...]

NSV is a non-scale victory, in case you were wondering, and this was mine today:
I had a staff meeting that I was supposed to go to from 3-5 pm.  However, I teach at another college (usually) until 3:30, so I always have to show up an hour late, and my boss is okay with that.  [...]
