No More Excuses -- Week 29

smwert

I am not happy with myself either. Bad week. Too much sodium, too much food, too much alcohol. And this weekend is full of events. I feel like staying home - but that will make me feel worse. I just need to find some motivation to make god choices.
Usually I lose during the week and gain it back on the weekend. Have to turn it around this weekend or I will gain more back.
The bigger I get the more depressed I feel. The more depressed I feel the more I want to eat and drink. Must get off the hamster wheel.

Wish me luck!

I am soooooo with you on this. I am on the same wheel!!!! I was so upset with myself all week. I think I am pulling out of it though! I HOPE!!! Went to Curves last night, and then went for a walk as well. As I suspected it is TOM time!! YUCK! But I have GOT to quit using that as an excuse. It is convenient and I need to get away from it. I need to find something to change up my routine a bit I think. My hubby and I have talked about playing tennis at night. Neither of us are really good, but running around the court would do me some good....so I think that is going to be a plan for at least 3 nights a week!

Hope you have a better week-end!!!!

Okay so here I go.......This is the beginning of a new week, and a great opportunity to start a new!!!!! I saw this bulletin on a local church about "Failure is only the opportunity to start a new journey with a better plan!" Well that is me this week. I did step on the scale this morning and it wasn't good. Not as bad as I was afraid after the last two weeks, but.....it was 3 lbs higher.. YUCK>>>>>and I refuse to sit idly by and accept it. So.....here we go. I am going to log every day, make smart food decisions, and exercise everyday. Here is my plan: Log what I am eating in the morning, then as far as exercise... Curves every night, M-W-F walk my 2 miles, T-TH work out on the Wii, Then Saturday....Have fun but still make smart food choices..... So, now that I have made my plan public.....I need you all to hold me accountable!!!!

Okay so now I feel better. I am off to finish my housework for the day. Talk to you all tomorrow to check in!

Well I am back on the grid. Been stuck in a log cabin in Minnesota for a week with internet so slow, anything beyond checking email was a huge hassel. My diet has been terrible but I have been working on the cabin for about 15 hours a day (cabin looks great), so I didn't gain any weight.

Now the bad news, my 94 year old grandfather fell and broke his hip a week ago and then died from complications a few days after the surgery. Funeral is tomorrow, to make things worse, a tornado hit about a quarter mile away from where my grandparents live, (google dwight, ill to read about it.

Send me your weight ins, I should be able to get the chart updated by tomorrow evening.

Happy Sunday all...I helped my aunt move yesterday. It was a 2 hour drive to her house and then a 3 hour drive to her new place. It was a terribly long and hard day but we got it done. I ate at McDonald's for lunch and dinner but I think I burned it off on the 112th trip up the stairs of the historic Victorian house she was living in. I am sore and extremely tired today but I got a good nap. It is very hot here, about 94. We won't have our new pool up until we get back from the beach so I am hiding from the heat. I will be packing M, T and W this week and leaving Th. I will do my very best to log and exercise but I can't promise anything. Hope you all have a great ending to your weekend. Talk to you soon.

True to my word so far......I have completed my food log for today up to dinner. I have about 450 calories for dinner. Any suggestions? That doesn't include the exercise for today though....which should add about 400 -450 more. It is suppose to be 105 here today!!!! EGADS!!!! My walk may happen at midnight when it cools down!! :laugh:

Here is to everyone having a great week!:drinker:
