Kickboxing, doesn't sound easy

Okay I need to get 54 points today hmmm...can't see that happening. And that's not counting my bonus points I thought I'd get for losing this week. We'll have to see.

well I don't feel well today but I did get 30 minutes in of exercise. I walked a little but it was something so that is alright. Sofar I got 8 cups of fluids and it won't take much to get the other 2 in since it is only 4 here. I have eaten alot better today since I don't have an apetite at all. Got more then 8 hours last night and I lost 1 lb this week. That brings my total today to 39 (not counting the other two cups of water). Then that is all of my points for the week. 221 to be exact so I think that I did pretty good this week.

Thumbs down Overate at dinner--bleah



Once again, I didn't eat enough food during the day at work. I got home starving, ate a rather large (but heavy on the vegetables) snack, and continued to eat as i prepared dinner.

By the time dinner was ready, I of course wasn't hungry. I ate anyway and now feel totally stuffed and uncomfortable. I had to put on sweats because my pants were too darn snug--argh.

OK, I have clearly identified an ongoing problem in how I am handling food during the day: I need to make better choices during the day so I won't overeat once I get home. Also will switch to raw cut-up veg. with a low points dip for a snack during dinner prep. A defined amount on a plate, then I will put it away.

Successes:
Exercised moderately
Drank water
Ate fresh fruit and veg.

Tomorrow is another day...there is always another choice.

Okay points for the day is 16 with 22 extra points for weight loss. So total for the week is 184. Okay not my goal. Next week I will get at least 185. Just keep increasing it. I lost 2.25 this week. My scale at home didn't show it, but it's not accurate.

HAve agreat night all. congrats Gabrielle on the ton of points. Elana, tomorrow is always another day.

well my goal this week is...

workout 1.5 hours 3 days (90 points)
workout 1 hour 3 other days (60 points)
drink 8 glasses 7 days (56 points)
eat well 5 days of the week (40 points)
8 hours of sleep 6 days (24 points)
1 lb lost (10 points)
and staying on plan for 5 days (20 points)

I will cut me a little slack and go for 280 instead of 300 points. I am sure that I can make it either way but want to make sure. It may be a bit hard to do it since sunday is my usual day off and that is in the middle but I will make Wednesday my day off to make sure that I make it. (I already took yesterday slow so that is fine by me)

I made it last week and had a few set backs so I figure that I can make it this week also.

well this is what I have so far since I didn't post yet.
Thursday-
I did taebo for an hour and did pushups. (20 points)
I drank 8 glasses of fluids (8 points)
I ate well (8 points)
slept 8 hours (3 points)
39 points for thursday

Friday-
ran and walked 1.5 hours (30 points)
10 glasses of fluids (10 points)
ate well (8 points)
slept 8 hours (3 points)
51 points for friday.

That is 90 points so far.

I don't plan on going off of my plan today so hopefully I get all of my points but 3 for not sleeping 8 hours last night. I will check in later to tell you how today went though.

Default Disappointing weight gain

I was up 2.2 lbs. at my WW meeting. Argh.

Water 6 cups
Exercise 30 mins.
Sleep 8 hrs.+
OP for food--yes
Only 1/2 piece of Halloween candy--priceless

Could use some words of encouragement! The weight gain bothers me. I am only a few pounds above goal, but it's frustrating to be above where I feel best.

Elana, don't be too disappointed. Quick weight gains are not real gains (if you havn't been camping out in McD's, that is which I'm sure you didn't). The quick gains are msot often quick downs next weigh in. There are always so many reasons quick gains can happen, ie. fluid retention due to somthing salty, TOM, big steak dinner still sitting in tummy, you know, lots of things. Don't let it get you down!! Next week will be better.

Okay I was away, so I didn't post.
Thursday, 36 points,
Friday, 22 points
Saturday, 12 points,
Sunday, 9 points,

hmmm...seems to just be getting worse....I was away from home and didn't exercise, and didn't drink much as it's not good for traveling long distances,

121 for this post and 90 from before so I have 211 and have about 70 points to get in the next 2 days. That seems reasonable. Tomorrow is Taebo and pushups and an hour walk so that will take care of 40of the points so taht is real good and I may take wednesday off. Never know.
