Epic Fail
Epic fail last night, guys. We all went out to pizza, I didn't have anything, and then my roommate and I came home and were talking about deep stuff and I ate a piece from the to go box! At midnight. Did I stop there? No, of course not. I had a few bowls of cereal after. Sheesh! The night before I had frozen yogurt really…

A Sugar Free Day
My goal today is to not eat any sugar. Don't worry - I'm not depriving myself! I overate on the sugar yesterday and I remember the days when I was totally weened off sugar, and miss them. Today I am trying a sugar free day (and when I say sugar, I mean sweets :) ).

Anything healthy at Maggiano's?
I know I can get the broccoli or the asparagus sides, but does anyone recommend a dish at Maggiano's that is reasonable in calories? I can't overdo it because I am running a half marathon on Sunday. thanks! <3

Thanks alot, scale!!!!!
Honestly???? What gives??? I get on the scale and weigh 3 more pounds than last Tuesday morning??? I am 2 weeks into a training program for a half marathon, and I gain weight??? Here's what this last week looked like for me: Tues: Weigh in and cross training (an hour of spinning class) Wed: 4 mile run (hill intervals)…

what have I done???
I hate myself right now...I'm pretty much back to where I've started. I've let myself gain 10lbs. Not cool. All because I freakin' crave carbs and sweets!!! x0 I suck. I feel awful and I feel like I look awful. The hardest thing is I know its my own fault, and only I can stop it. Why the heck can't I practice more self…

hip hurting from running
I've been running a lot for a year now and my hip has never hurt, until about 2 weeks ago, I did a 6 mile run (I hadn't done a long run like that for one or two weeks), and after that, my hip hurt. But its not just the joint, my muscles feel sore at the top of my pelvis, then right behind it, and then down where my hip…

Cheesecake Factory
So I was invited to go out to dinner tonight. I ran 6 miles, and just ate a tuna sandwich w/ some quaker rice cakes and some lowfat ice cream. I still have about 700 cals to spare, so instead of turning down going out and also instead of messing up my day, I MFP'd a slice of Oreo cheesecake and saw that it is 460 cals. I…

punishment
I totally cheated yesterday and ate a big ol' meal of turkey and stuffing and mashed potatoes, etc at this cute little English restaurant. So its not really punishment because I love it, but I made myself get up for a 6am run (usually run after work these days). I did 5 miles at a 9.5 minute per mile pace! That was 30…

kick my own butt
I seriously need to kick my own butt and rededicate myself to MFP, considering I had a week long hiatus from exercise and heating healthy. Well...I did run a couple of days, but MAN! I haven't OD'd on cake, cookies, chips, and ice cream in so stinkin' long! I feel the effects of it for sure...MFP, I vow to get back on…

Sugar coma...
So the temptation challenge on the last episode of Biggest Loser...I'm pretty sure I just reenacted that last night, minus the hidden cash and golden ticket. And I don't think I downed 4,000 cals, but MAN! I sure went to bed in a sugar coma. NEVER AGAIN. Ugh, my body couldn't handle it. *Sigh*...new day, new day. :)

mmm...donuts...
Someone brought donuts to work this morning, and even though I want a deliciously, sweet and soft cakey donut smothered in a thick, chocolatey, goodness glaze, I will only enjoy it for the quick minute or two it takes me to eat it, and after it will be nothing but a day of regrets and extra miles at the gym. There - talked…

gym or sleep...?
I would rather just flop on my bed and fall asleep, but I am going to the gym for a good workout instead. Bob and Gillian would be proud!

what did I do to my calf?
So I was stretching my calf by putting my foot up against the wall and pushing my body forward, and I felt a pop in the center of my calf muscle. Now it is sore. What does that mean??? I can still walk, it just hurts a bit...

blah
Don't you hate the 'i feel fat' days? That was today. I guess it didn't help that I ate bday cake. Tomorrow is new, tho, and my goal is to post my next note under the Success Story category and not the Motivation and Support! I've been putting too many whiny notes there lately...sorry about that...:)

>:O Why?!!!
Ok. I don't get it. I've been running outside for about 7 months now (4-5 miles a morning) and lost a lot of weight, which came off quite fast. I hit a plateau at the beginning of the year that lasted up until a week or two ago, when I got a gym membership. I wanted to change it up, get cross training and all. For the last…

substitute for ice cream
I LOVE ice cream, and while its totally fine in moderation, I found I was eating it almost every night (just 1/2 a cup, but still). So I decided to switch to frozen jello sugar free pudding snacks, and they are amazing! They freeze a little harder than ice cream, so it is a lot slower eating one, and I feel like I'm…

chocolate and sugar
Ok. So I am NOT having any sugar today, except for one little piece of chocolate after dinner. After all, I am swiss. :) But seriously, I really really need to cut back on sugar. I burn 500 to 800 calories a day, and I have not gotten over my plateau, and I know it is because of my eating. Also, I am switching out 1…

First 10k!!!
Hey! I run my first 10k next month, so I ran 7 miles today to see if I could do it and I did!!! I used to hate running, so this is a big feat for me. Now I absolutely love it! It feels great! :D

chocolate!!!
I ate too much chocolate again, guys! Tell me to stop! I lost a bunch of weight at the beginning but slacked off on my eating habits and I haven't lost any since. I know what I need to do, I just get so weak! >:0

trying to get back on track...
Alright friends, I need a pep talk. Getting back on track after the holidays is harder than I thought. I ate way to much and have only exercised for 30 min this week total. Pathetic! Tomorrow is a new day. Please pep talk me!

keeping in check over the holidays
I was worried I wouldn't be able to do well over the holidays. My mom cooks amazing things and I want to eat them all! I decided that I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't gain any weight, and if I didn't loose any, it would be ok. I also started running stairs before I came home so that I could have some sort of work out…

almost started the day bad...
So I am sitting here at work where there are a lot of Christmas goodies lying around, and I picked up a Sees chocolate and thought, "I can have just one." I put it on my desk for a little bit later, and then I got on this site and were reading some of your posts, took one look at the chocolate, and threw it in the trash!…

what's up w/ the scale?
Sometimes I get on it and I weigh a certain amount, and then sometimes I obsess and get on it the next day and I've gained 2 or 3 lbs, but I've done nothing wrong w/ my exercise and eating. Especially since I am burning around 500 calories a day and always eating about 300 cals under my limit. Maybe its because I'm gaining…
