  • Bad day for me yesterday.

    English muffin - one side with PB, one side with jelly = 4 points
    banana = 2 points
    Spec K bar - 2 points
    left over lunch = 7 points
    Too many "drinks" AND popcorn!!! BAD BAD BAD

    No exercise.... had a gal pal having a very bad day so I sat with her while she drank away her sorrorws!

    That bacon Potato Cheese Soup sounds YUMMY. I think I need to get some of that! Is the whole can only 220 points?

    yup whole can was 220 calories.... YAY!

    anywho... get back on that roll today chica... good luck!!!
  • Yeah - Today is week 1 day 2 on the C25K running deal!
  • i really want to get into that but i have to wait for my knee to completely heal... they said i won't be able to run/jog (do anything over 2.5mph on the treadmill) for at least 6 weeks

    oh and i'm an idiot who doesn't do math well... (i always just say i'm too pretty to do math )... so ya.. the campbell's soup was 320 calories so i was over by 27 calories yesterday... still not bad though.
  • Yeah - Make sure you heal up before you start anything. No point in further hurting yourself!

    I'm very much dreading working out today. I'm in that day after drinking too much mode...all I want is greasy food and to lay on the couch and watch TV. I'm not getting anything done at work today...obviously!

    BUT, I will do it!!
  • i failed miserably yesterday. my mom had me come out to the bar with her. she wanted me to go so bad she came and picked me up (now that i live 1.6 miles from her it's easier for her to do so, rather than last week when i lived 25 miles from her)

    so here's my food log:
    2 coffee creamers 140
    PB Crackers 200
    100 cal reeses pack 100
    beef barley chunky Campbell's 340
    3 mini buirgers 300
    french fries 660
    Miller Lite (1) 90
    2.5 honeycombs 300
    1.5 cup skim milk 135
    Total Calories - 2265
    Over by - 865


    oh ya and yesterday is when i changed my calories from 1600 or 1400... so that made it worse

    luckily tomorrow i should get my WW Package in the mail and when i get home from work i will be reading up on it... and saturday my best friend is coming to hang out (mini-sleep over at the new place because she doesn't drive and since i moved, she is like 30 mins from my place verses before when she was 10) and she is going to read up on it and see if it's something she would be interested in. she can just get the calculator from ebay and share my materials. She weights ~240-260 so she has a lot to lose and it makes me feel good that she looks to me for advice since i've already lost ~40lbs (before i gained back)
  • Ouch Sally - We really need to kick ourselves in the *** today. I did horrible too. I was a little hung over so ate bacon, eggs, hashbrowns AND toast. Then last night we went to the Olive Garden...soup and salad...then no working out last night. AND, I found where my husband hid the scale, stepped on it, and was not happy. I just want to break that 160 mark!!!

    So yeah... I need to get on the ball. I think I might try this calorie counting deal...
  • it's not a bad thing i lost ~40 on it...

    so ya.

    and we really do need to get back on track... tonight i'm staying in and i still have ~600 calories left... 300 will go to my bowl of cereal i eat EVERY NIGHT when i get home (it's my comfort food or something) and the rest will go to something else... just not sure what that something else will be... maybe a sandwich?
  • I'll probably try to track calories now but will always keep up with WW points. It's just inevitalbe that I know how many points I'm eating all the time!
  • Hey girls! So I'm a bit late in finding this thread but I'm in DESPERATE need of someone to help keep me accountable. I did really well over the summer and lost about 12 pounds (from 149 to 137) and was very happy with everything. Unfortunately, when school started back up everything went to ****. My boyfriend moved back down here and I practically live with him, and he loves to cook and eat everything under the sun and he absolutely cannot gain a single ounce. I, on the other hand, have to watch what I eat and it's soooo difficult to stay on track with how busy I am and constantly stressed and having crappy food all around his apartment.

    I've thankfully been able to maintain between 137 and 140 since classes started back up, but I am back to feeling fat and down about myself and upset that I didn't keep up with how well I was doing. I've been pretty good about exercising, but still not as good as I should be.

    I need a swift kick to the ***!! And some serious motivation, cuz I'm definitely lacking in that department right now.

    Mind if I join you?
