Valerie - yeah - May it be the first in a string of many.
Heather - Oh, dear, plumbing! I hate low-flush toilets. We have been in this house for 4 years, and this is the first time we've ever had them, since I love old houses (I grew up in one built in 1917 and then we moved to one built in the 1760s -- it had no indoor plumbing when we moved in, but a two-holer out behind the barn). We keep plumber's friends in every bathroom now.
Lilion -I'm so sorry that you're not getting good results. Believe me, I know what you're talking about. I don't think I ever realized how little "really tasty/bad" food it took to totally mess up my weight loss. Because I didn't record my food on the days I was "bad." I knew what "good" looked like, but not "bad." This is a change I really am trying to make - although, you would be appalled at what my Custom Foods list looks like on FitDay.
Go be judicial, for as long as you can.
So, let me tell you my horror story. Y'all remember how proud of myself I was to have handled the whole Macaroni Grill situation without eating pasta? Well, let me tell you...
I looked up the sole in MG's online Nutrition (and let me tell you it wasn't easy to find) to find out that the meal was 2000 CALORIES
. I would never have known, if I wasn't trying to record it (I still haven't put it in, I'm sick to my stomach over this). I WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER OFF EATING PASTA (although not Fettucine Alfredo).
So I went to the rec center, and worked out for over 0.5 hr. And went home and put left over turkey on lettuce with some salsa for dinner. Must have worked, cause my weight wasn't up this AM - of course, it wasn't down either.
Oh, God, this weekend is the office Christmas party. Maybe if I work out really hard all week - water aerobics tonight!
Positive thought for the day - I haven't lost much recently, but my size 22 stretch jeans are getting baggy. Maybe I am building a little muscle, and losing a little fat? That would be so acceptable.
TTFN
