Kick that butt!

Seriously I just feel like kicking my butt to get it moving. But even then I dont think it will get much action. hahaha I went walking today and bundled the cowboy up. He didnt last long. Sooner or later I will get a stroller that has tires that dont get flat and a buckle that keeps the little cowboy nestled in his seat.

I have not eaten anything yet, I have drank water but my body is just not hungry. I did eat a little piece of cheese but I felt like I was going to puke. Our bodies are crazy. I think I ate so much while being on the dot that my body is full. hahaha Wouldnt that be good news?! I am going to snack on some almonds.

Yesterday I weighed myself and I came up with 166.0 which isnt bad compared to most days. I know I ate more and I have just been lazy. I am just glad it didnt go to 169.0 because I was stuck there before.

A friend of mine just started the Atkins diet and she lost 28lbs in 3-4 weeks which made me excited for her but also sad that it took me 4 months to lose that much. I just need to keep kicking my butt and moving forward.

humdinger

so i have come to the conclusion that the weekends are just plain lazy, even though i am more busy with everyone being home my computer life gets put on the back burner. i will not be posting my food, that's just all there is to it.

this morning i had a bowl of kix which i shared with the cowboy and i have been drinking water. i ate a cheese tortilla with salsa and a yummy tag-a-long cookie. i am full but could probably eat more if i wanted to. i am trying to do 100 crunches and 100 oblique crunches morning and night. so that would be 200 of each a day which isnt too bad. did them last night and this morning so life is good so far.

we went and had a barbecue with some friends. i was pretty cranky and tired. so mostly i just stayed quite the whole time. oh the joys.

party day!

i thought i would be able to sleep in today, what with having no kids at home and such. no such luck. i was up at seven and ready to get going. what the crap is that all about?! the nerve of my body feeling awake and ready. hahaha

my eating was kind of scattered between the birthday cake and the yummy salad that was made. i also finished up the thai delicious food. water has been my bff the past couple days and i can say thanks to the flo for that. one good things can come of it.

how is your weekend going?

Yesterday!

I had a really good day and an even better day night. I went walking of course and we walked up to the cemetery which was great due to the inclines. I also took a picture when I returned home to prove I walked but my camera has magically disappeared. hahaha No it wasn't planned.

Eating today went well, I had apples a lot of water, chips and salsa and some yummy Thai Food. I am sure I sneaked some other food in there but let's face it, that was yesterday and I dont remember.

The man and I went on a date last night and it was so freakin fun going out. We went to Office Max and got a really nice pencil sharpener. I know you all will think I am a freak but seriously I hate getting a pencil and it not being sharpened. Then you cant find a sharpener, pisses me off if I want to be honest. But enough about that. I even posted on my FB how much I am in love with my new sharpener. Took pictures of it even, which I shall post later. We went to a bookstore and got a planner because yes I have appointments already starting for 2011, and had some yummy Thai food. Delicious!! Overall it was a really rocking night and I always love spending time with the man.

Eating Day 4, It's coming

Well this morning I woke up not very hungry. I had some lemon water and finished off my smoothie. Would it be bad to listen to my not hungry body, or should I just force food?

I so was not ready to walk this morning. 9:30am is just too late to walk for me and the cowboy. He usually likes to nap at that time so it really messes with my day. Tomorrow we are going to try and go at 8:30am. We did some little jogging at spots and it was fun to try it. Maybe it will help me like running a little bit.

I decided to eat some chips and salsa, which turned to mashed potatoes and ghoulash, which turned into cookies, which turned into . . . . nothing after that. LOL Really I should have just drank some water and I would have been fine and not dealing with a chain of events of eating.

(vi.sualize.us)

I feel something coming, and I am pretty sure it is something every woman dreads, men too possibly. I am starting my cycle of life, my dot, my aunt flo is on her way and I am not happy. She is making me irritable, making me sneak popcorn, and yes I had three bowls of soup for dinner. UGH! Dont hate me for being weak. It happens. Life moves on

ps: i love adding buttons to my sidebar.

pss: i would love to have my own button for my sidebar.

psss: does anyone want to make me an awesome button for my sidebar?

pssss: i will be your bestest weightloss bud in the whole freakin universe

psssss: thanks

Eating Day 3

(vi.sualize.us)

This morning went well. I did my smoothie and water and it kept me pretty full the whole morning. I also went walking with same friend. I almost said no because it was sprinkling rain out side but she pulled me out and we went walking. It was sooooo much FUN and I am so happy she pushed me out of my box, even if it did start to rain.

I went to visit hubby for lunch which is never good as far as food is concerned. LOL We went to Denny's because that was are only choice along with Subway and we were going to eat there but let's face it the cowboy would not eat there food. So we ventured to Denny's and I ate a little bit of salad, a few onion rings, some seasoned fries and half of the turkey bird sandwich, dont forget ranch. Not the best but I am so full right now I dont think I will have to eat dinner. LOL Gives me time to work it off.

I will update if I do eat something but seriously I am so full

ps: i did try my dinner mmmm yummy sweet bbq pork chops and mashed potatoes, but seriously only a little bit.

bad thing for today: eating out - really i dont care how you look at it. eating out is always mostly fatty.

good thing for the day: walking in the rain and seeing the hubby at lunch

Eating Day 2

i have the cutest smoothie buddy!! he always finishes his before me. LOL mostly because he has less but who cares. (dont mind the dirty face they are born that way)

my yummy drinks for the morning. mmmmmmmm delicious! this morning i made my smoothies. ingredients include: orange juice, bananas, carrots, almonds, bok choy, lettuce, blueberries, grapes, and apples. these two smoothies hold me over until dinner. I also ate a half of almond poppyseed muffin which was really filling, i could of done with a quarter size of it and been good.

i went on a walk with a local friend who is trying to lose weight as well and it was really awesome to visit with her and get to know her better.

i drank my second smoothie and ate some cheese with it. yum yum :)

for dinner i had some ham, green beans and home made macaroni and cheese. tomorrow i am going to eat at lunch so i am not starving by dinner time. mmmmmm that could be bad.

and if i really wanted to be honest i would say that i had to have a couple baby spoonfuls of mashed potatoes (to show cowboy how yummy they were) and sneaked a few cheetos but that is only if i want to be honest.

bad thing for the day: almost getting eaten by dogs while on our walk, seriously it was freaky, thank goodness for sticks.

good thing for the day: new razor blades - my legs are now silky smooth LOL yay!

Weigh-In Week 16

164.4

I know what you are thinking.
My feet are getting super sexy!!
hahahahahahah
Just dont look at my legs,
they are super hairy.
hahahahahahaha :p

The apple day really helped me yesterday.
It helped my body.
It helped my mind.
And now I know I am back on track.

Eating Day 1

Well I did pretty dang good for today. I drank lots of water ate two carrots, because I didnt have apples, and then ate three or four apples. I cant remember. LOL I did end up eating dinner mostly because yesterday I didnt eat anything due to sickness and I didnt want to hurt myself. I even stopped my eating and havent eaten anything since 5:30pm-6pm. I ate green beans, mashed potatoes and hamburger ghoulash. I had some major temptations today especially since cookies were sitting on the counter and I could smell them. MMMMMMMmmmmmm. . . . . . I wonder if we gain weight from sniffing the cookies. hahahaha I ended up throwing them away. Was going to take a picture but oh well. I even did a few crunches but I moved quite a bit today with organizing cupboards and cleaning the refrigerator and freezer. My legs are sore from the normal hustle and bustle. Now off to dream land.

ps: yay tomorrow is my weigh-in day

pss: this was my 100th post *woot*woot*

It's a New Day!!

. . . . . and I am going to kick my butt into gear. That's the right thing to say after being in such a slump but truly I want to stop getting sick and I know it has a lot to do with my eating habits and stress. Today I am going to flush my system and by doing that I am going to drink lemon water all day and eat apples. By doing this I know I will be sending my body the message that from here on out only good food. I am also going to try and be more accountable for the food I put in my body. Yes I will be posting a list of food I eat everyday. Doing this mostly so I can stop eating all those darn cookies. I definitely dont want the world to know about my cookie love. Lately I have been craving a lot of meat, no i am not on my monthly, like steak meat. Not so much today but really I dont think it is all that bad to eat meat on occasion. (sorry that was a random thought) So here is to a new day and flushing the system. Happy Apple Day!

It has been a crazy week with balls and funerals and shopping. Lots of shopping I should say. The charity dinner went well and I found a beautiful black dress that a friend let me borrow for the night. It was truly amazing.

After this weigh0in I kind of got crazy which I usually do. I had an eat day where I ate Chester's Fries and cookies all day. Seriously that is what I ate. It was pretty sick. I still get enough of those Chester's Fries and I just need to throw them away or give them to the kids because they are seriously giving me the runs. How is that for juicy details hahahahaha Life is crazy and exciting all the same.
