Self-Sabotage

I stepped on the scale this morning and it said 170 pounds. Well I did it. I managed to undo week and weeks worth of worth in a matter of days. Its that special time of month and I am sick and I gave into every urge. My husband and I polished off a bag of chips two days in a row. I have had chocolate covered pretzels almost every day. I find myself sneaking carbs and craving salt. I skipped my weigh in last week and now I see I will have hell  to pay come this Tuesday. I was not always hungry. I have been emotionally eating because I feel like crap. And I have let my husband become an enabler. I have been exercising but that does not overcome the fact I have been eating at least twice as much as I should. Ad I can feel it. And see it. I have to get a hold of myself. And writing it down it where it starts. 

Week 30 Update

So there is no weight update for week 30 because I was sick at home and did not feel like dragging myself out into the impending snow to get bad news about how I put on a bunch of weight. Because as far as my scale at home is concerned I have put on at least 3 pounds. Defeat sucks. 

Week 29 Update

Alright I lost 3.8 pounds this week. Which is pretty good considering I was very bad on sat. Pizza and alcohol and chips. I was able to keep up with my exercise, I only missed one day. I also found out some people I know have joined the program. I wish them the best of luck. Vegas here I come. 

Week 28 Update

So I lost a little under a pound this week. Not bad considering I went nuts onchips while watching football this weekend. We had group and no one showed up again. Ended up being the speaker, myself, and the new chick. So we spent the whole time talking about the program and answering the new chicks questions. I have been proud of myself because I have been walking. And its mad cold outside. But thanks to long johns and goose down jackets and mittens I am still out taking walks. I feel better when I get some exercise in. I also tried running on the treadmill again. Didn't do too bad. Could go for about 2 min before I had to stop. I have been doing interval training - switching between 1 to 2 min running and 1 to 2 min walking. I was also able to increase my weights at the gym. Finally! So that leaves 6.4 pounds left. I want to try and get that off before we go back to Vegas. Here's hoping. 

Week 27 Update

Happy New Year! I lost 2.2 pounds this week so I am clocking in at 167.2 pounds. We had our first group if the year and I was the only person there. So I got a freebie one on one with a nutritionist. Which was cool. I realize sugar is still my weakness. I also found that I was not doing the serving size correctly for somethings to count as an exchange. But now I know and that is half the battle. She also was surprised that I took the time to get a food scale. I find it very helpful. Especially since I can start to eyeball how much of something I can have, which is good when the scale is at home. I can make it thru some cardio without too much hip pain so that is also good. My lunch choices have been working out. I found I do not even need to have the shake on the road. I still carry it just in case though. I am also totally addicted to wawa coffee. So I will cont with the weekly meetings until I get down to 160 pounds and then transition to maintenance.
