Just checking in for the weekend here. Heading to the gym in an hour for my personal trainer 2 hour session. Hoping it goes well. This morning I stepped on the scale and wanted to cry. I changed my medicine (well, I started it a week late because of payday falling wrong), but anyways, I think its contributing to the huge gain I am showing right now. If I can't drop any in the next 3 days, then I might consider using my last freebie. We will have to see.
Went to the gym for my personal trainer session. He kicked my butt. I HATE him. Haha. I was crying my body hurt so bad. Not only that, but I could barely walk now. Haha. Oh well, I know it will be worth it in the end. Hope everyone has a good one.
after the week i've had, i am still just too exhausted to workout...and have a headache. DD has gymnastics in the morning, so hoping to have a chance to workout tomorrow when we get back from that. may stop at the other youth center nearby to let the kids play while i walk the track (it has a tall fence around a huge playground with recycled tire padding underneath with a track around the playground and mini hockey field)....so will try to get some mileage in there, it's supposed to be another nice warm day tomorrow.
i'm up to 153 due to TOM leaving and my overeating the wrong things. today i was under calories and according to my HRM, just in normal activities today I've burned almost 4500 calories. but dont know if that will help when i get on the scale tomorrow...been trying to keep an eye on my weight so it doesn't get too outta control. but hope to get a good night sleep tonight, since i'm tired and ready for bed (which is odd for me, i normally go to bed by midnight and its not even 10pm here)....
i got the last of the fleece fabric i needed to start on hubby's quilt today. so hope to get it started soon so i can get it mailed before they stop accepting mail (to prep for coming home!) less than 3 months left - we're counting down the days
I have 102 minutes to catch up on for this week. i do plan to do better next week. and pray no other traumas/situations arise next week to stop me or unmotivate me to workout.

wtg on your workout with your new trainer...i've never worked out with a personal trainer before...lol guess i'll get my chance once hubby gets home - since he's now a personal trainer. i'm trying to stick to the workout/calorie plans he's set up for me....but some days it's easier than others.
best of luck to you. and everyone else.
Hi Red Team,
I didn't have much of a chance to check in this past week, just don't know where the time goes to. I haven't been doing very well this challenge, I think I let things get to me too much and stopped taking care of me. It was so easy for the sugar to slip back in to my diet. I've started eating grapes again as a way to wean myself off the sugar and because I love tham but I am noticing that once I get the sugar totally out of my body for a few weeks than I don't crave the grapes as much. It sounds weird but it works.
Army Wife, I'm so glad you are ok, when I heard what was going on I was worried about you. Thankfully DS is at Leavenworth so I didn't have to worry about him, but I called him anyway.
Shan, I would love to have a personal trainer kick my butt, but that won't be in the buget for a long time.
For Our Biggest Losers, and for the Blue Team, Congrats on working so hard.
Hi all, hope you are having a great start to the weekend! My weekend started late yesterday morning, as I took some PTO (paid time) from work and went to the zoo with my dad for the afternoon. It was a fun time.
Woke up and did my weekly weigh-in to discover that I'm down another 1.2lbs! Such a nice thing to see. I am now 99% vegan, still have the occasional dairy sneaking into some of the nutrition bars I'm finishing up, but no more drinking dairy, no cheese (less for vegan) and no eggs. This seems to have really pushed my body into a bit more weight loss which is great.
And, Thanks for the encouragement Mrs. Vegan, I'd love any tips you have. I've been listening to the Vegetarian Food for Thought podcast by Colleen of Compassionate Cooks and I adore her.
Anyway, off to get myself showered and ready, as I'm going to go to an arts & craft show for a bit before I get some writing done this afternoon. Have a good one everyone!
DOES EVERYONE KNOW THAT IT'S MONTE CRISTO'S (ANTONIA) BIRTHDAY TODAY!
For you my friend: May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
just finished my wii fit plus workout - it was all training and aerobics....i'm pouring sweat and am gonna get kids to bed so i can shower....glad to have my HRM back
i did wii fit for 81 minutes and got 1100 calorie burn - which includes 10 minutes (each) of running, hula hoop, and boxing. I get really into the boxing - cuz it's so fun (plus the fact that i burned 254 calories in 10 minutes) LOVE IT!!!
I love all the new stuff in the fit plus this was my first chance to test the fit plus activities with my HRM. i'm thrilled. so far i've only eaten almost 1200 calories in food but havent had my snack yet tonight...but between my wii fit workout and my walk at the track this afternoon - i've burned 1361 calories. so i basically will have worked off all the calories i ate today...so hope the scale is nice again tomorrow.
i was 153.8 yesterday, and today was 152.4.....so hoping to make the scale continue to go in the right direction...
well i'm off to get the kids to bed, so i can get a shower, and then watch my DVR'ed Suze Orman show from tonight
Been doing alot of thinking today, trying not to fall into a pocket of deep depression. TOM is basically over and if this morning was any indication, tomorrow's WI will not be pretty. It's all my fault of course. I lost complete control this week. Tomorrow is a new week, I suppose.
