  • Alrighty I am starting a new thread today.

    Life goes back to crazy for me today. Swim team MWF and Lessons TTH. So I will be working out On swim team nights at the gym.

    Yesterday I pretty much lounged around, with an hour of swimming with the kiddos.

    Today

    W 80 oz
    E run
    E 1400 cals.
    D no sugar; housework.
  • Hey Jeni -

    I have been MIA for many months - and doing lots of yo-yo dieting over that time.

    I think I am going to ease back in these last two weeks and hopefully be into this full swing for the next WEED challenge.

    W - 64 oz.
    E - a little bit of a DVD in the morning; small walk in the afternoon
    E - 1350 calories
    D - avoid late night snacking

    I hope everyone is doing well.
  • Glad to see you back PopcornGal!
  • I have had 2 horrible days. Right back on track! I am worth it!

    Welcome back Popcorn!
  • W 100
    E Running tonight
    E POP, need focus
    D Quit dwelling on bad stuff
  • Good morning -

    Thanks for the welcome back Jeni and Mavis. It feels good to be back. I really like the WEED. Even though no one is checking on me just by announcing my daily WEED here helps me stick to it when I want to eat at night.

    I think that not only does it help that the WEED is daily but breaking it into the four parts makes it like four mini goals to keep me focused.

    So yesterday was successful. Baby steps helps.

    I really appreciate the support this site provides.

    Mavis - I am with you about dwelling on the bad stuff, it is so easy to fall into that pattern. I think the weather being rainly and gloomy doesn't help especially after a long winter. When the weather is better, I think I am more positive. I think by making that your daily affirmation today you will find your food focus better to stay on plan. Good luck.


    Today's WEED -

    W - 64 oz.
    E - warm up and L1C2 of 30 Day Shred in the morning; short walk before class tonight
    E - 1325 calories
    D - bag up some snacks into smaller portions
  • WEED is all going okay today! Not much to report.
  • Yesterday was good except for 5guys for dinner.

    W 100
    E Running tonight possibly. Long day ahead
    E POP
    D Keeping at it

    Thanks PG and I think you are right, so tired of the rain!
  • No time yesterday to do two miles after work so I only did one mile. But I got a short walk in.

    Otherwise WEED was successful.


    Today's WEED

    W - 64 oz.
    E - kettle ball exercises in the morning; short walk in the evening
    E - 1300 calories
    D - practice obedience exercises with the dog

    Have a good day everyone
  • Hey ladies!

    Popcorn - good to see you back!

    Jeni & Mavis - hi!

    Doing good, DH is out of town for work until tomorrow night Just trying to get the last minute list of things finished up before the baby. My gardens are a mess and need some serious weeding but I don't know that that's going to happen - oh well, the exterior of my house will just be 'unsightly' for a little while. Getting our vegetable garden in this weekend will be an accomplishment in itself. Weigh in's tomorrow...eek!
  • girls.

    I've been out and naughty (and not in the oh-so-good way I would like to be ). Monday, I woke up to chest pains and numbness in my right arm. I ended up in the hospital and was diagnosed with a pinched nerve. So they drugged me up and sent me home with orders to take the rest of the week off. I go back to work on Sat. My eating has been just shyt. There will definitely be a gain on Friday. I start my new shift Sat (overnight: 10 pm to 7 am) and I'm hoping both my eating and sleep will get back on track now that I will be having steady hours instead of the insane hours they were giving me. Since it's almost a given that I will not be able to go home for a visit this summer, I'm looking into taking summer courses at school. The only problem would be that I would have to pay out of pocket since I'm getting my summer financial aid request in late. We'll see what happens. Hope you all are doing great!

  • Today is the first day of the rest of your life.

    W 100
    E Running
    E OP
    D We always say, if I had it to do over again. Well, I have it to do right from this time forward. Let's try that.
  • My mom interupted yesterdays workout. But I am going to get a good one in today.

    W 80 oz
    E run
    E1400 cals
    D shop for food.
  • Yesterdays WEED went well.

    Tuesdays and Wednesdays are going to be hard for me to get exercise in since those are the class nights. Class doesn't provide any exercise either because the dog and I are running in sixty second intervals and we only get about 4 turns tops. So I can't count that as exercise.

    Jeni - I hope today's workout is uninterupted.

    Emily - thanks for the warm welcome. Congratulations on the baby. This gives all of the WEED women something to look forward to.

    JasonsLea - Glad it was only a pinched nerve. A regular schedule certainly does help with weight loss. I am trying to force myself to get in a regular bed routine and it just isn't happening.

    Mavis - nice daily affirmation. I may have to adopt that.


    Today's WEED -

    W - 64 0z.
    E - Shred L1C1 in the morning; walk in the afternoon (please stop rain)
    E - 1300 calories
    D - more obedience training
