So far so good...

Well today was a tiny bit rocky. I did well at breakfast and at lunch. But after lunch I ate a few of my co-teacher's Combos and then I ate about 15 M&Ms... then I ate 2 Starburst during last hour. I guess that is not that bad. I have not checked the calories on my calorie counter, we shall see. I can not go for my walk, because it is raining cats and dogs. I will just have to hit the cardio DVD I guess! :)

Hope dinner goes well!

A good day...

I know it is just the first day, but I did really well. I only ate 1150 cals. and I can have 1250. I went for a walk for 45 min. Which is more than I normally do...

So I say...Good Job!!

Ok... it's really bad now!

So, I blogged at the beginning of September about gaining a lot of weight over the summer. Well, it is official! I am fat! I have topped the scales at 151 Sunday. I am so angry with myself. I know I can do it. I am just so f'in lazy. I just need to get my fat bottom off the couch and take a jog or even a really good walk. I need to do it EVERYDAY. I have decided to bring a pair of walking shoes to work and take a walk around the building during my prep hour. That will at least get in a good 45 min of light cardio. My co-teacher said she will walk with me when she can, so that is good.

I also am going to consciously make the effort not to eat after 8 p.m. and also try to eat good healthy foods. I know I will have to go on Mc Donalds trips sometimes, since I have a husband and a son who can not live without it. BUT I am going to eat a salad or a grilled chicken sandwich.

I really have to try. All of my school ( work) clothes are too tight. My shirts don't fit through my belly and my pants hardly button. I don't have enough money to go out and buy new FAT clothes. Besides, maybe being uncomfortable in my clothes all day will be good motivation for me to keep it up!

Let's just hope that is all works out... for my health's sake. And who knows, maybe the good walks with Thurman will keep me from being so tired after school and duing the evening!

Let's get started! And really keep it up this time!!!

Wow what a bad summer!

Okay so I have not been on here all summer. Maybe that is because there has been ABSOLUTELY NO weight loss!!!! I have actually gained like 7 lbs!!!!! So here I go again....trying to tell myself that I am going to get the weight off and get in shape. I really am going to start tomorrow, by either going for a walk/run early in the morning. I am going to try to get up at 5:15 and go for it, if that does not happen then I will go after school. I WILL go no matter what though. I am also going to try to eat very good for me meals... this is going to be the hard part. We shall see.... wish me luck. I have not had much of it so far!!!

Father's Day Dinner

Well, my day of dieting will be ruined here in about one hour! We are going to Lottawatta Creek for dinner. It is Josh's day and we told him to pick anywhere he wanted to eat! Why there Josh , WHY! :) I can say that I am going to try to contain myself, but I know that I won't be able to while there! I love that place! I will not want to eat a salad! BOO:) Oh well, just work extra hard the rest of the week! :)

Had a great time... but now it has to be ran off!

So, one of my best friends got married last night. It was so nice. I had a GREAT time at the reception. I ate too much, and drank a lot... so now the result.... having to work extra hard at the gym today! BOO... I wanted to get today off! Plus, I am bloated from PMS! God, I hate this week! I really wanted to try to get another lb off by this weekend! I want to look better in my wedding dress! Oh well, we shall see how it goes! :)

A good run!

When I first started working out back in April, I could run for 2 minutes and NO longer... well....I stopped working out, but started again almost 2 weeks ago. Two weeks ago, I could only run the usual 2 minutes. BUT I have been going to the gym pretty much every day, and everyday am getting better at running. Well, tonight on my usual 3o minutes on the treadmill, I was able to run for 18 of those 30 minutes!!! One section was a WHOLE 10 minutes straight! I know that does not sound like a very long time, but for me it is a MAJOR accomplishment! I am proud of myself!!

GO ME!!!!
