First Week Back with Losing Victory

Hmmmm, I have been back on track for a week and happy to say I am down 6 pounds! I am so happy to be back on track. It has not been as difficult as I thought it would be but, I am having trouble getting my walks in each day. I really can't handle the cold--because I don't want to. By the time it warms up enough for me to take a walk, I have to go to work. Then by the time I finish work, get home and have dinner it is dark and cold again. Luckily we are moving the clocks ahead this weekend and it will be lighter later. I am really excited about that. I love the lighter nights.

  1. What?!?! I love a good walk in the cold!! Get out there! You warm up quickly if you move quickly! It's just when it rains that I hate it!! Well, done for getting back on track though! I suck, but I did finally get back to the gym! I LOVE that good sore feeling afterwards!!

  2. where you been Mary?? Whats going on? I've gained a stone!!! (14lbs!!) I'm a cow! SO, back to it. I've started watching what I eat and I'm hitting the gym 4x this week (today is number 2) So, in the last 2 days I've lost 4 lbs. Makes me feel better, but I see those pictures of lori and get fed up with myself. Lets get back on board!!

  3. I have been bad! Really bad. I guess you can tell how bad because I am not posting. I keep waiting for the mood to strike me to get back on board. I don't know what happens that suddenly I am so on board No one can stop me and then I lose it and No one can stop me. I am trying not to blame anyone because it all boils down to my decisions but, it doesn't help when those around you don't help. John is one of the absolute worst. I know it is not his fault but he cooks dinner most nights--because he gets home first. I keep telling him to stop making potatoes, pasta, rice--and just protein and veggies. Ok. I am going to start posting to help keep me on track. I do think it helps because I have to be better if I want to post.

  4. If he makes the starch, eat everything but the starch. He'll learn, because he'll either have to eat the leftovers himself, or throw them away. He'll either get sick of them, or hate the waste! Don't let it take you off course.
    Of course, I am my own worst enemy. I've been making SWEETS! And I never used to do that!! Even going out to dinner, Hayle and Pete would order dessert, I never would! But I am craving sweets. But I see the results on the scale, and I am determined to stop it!! Ok, let's go!! I did make it to the gym today and did my cardio!!

  5. I know what you mean about the sweets. I have been on a sweet kick for way too long. I just want them.
    I also have a tough time passing up the starches when I see and smell them. I don't have to have them until I see or smell them. Then I can't pass them up. And John loves snacking on potato chips. I really need to get him on board to help me. I can go all day and be good and then he sabotages me at night. Not that that is really an excuse but, he knows I have no will power. We have been through all this before.
    I am glad you commented to kick my butt. You are giving me some motivation and tonight I am going to talk to John to get him on board. This bullshit has got to stop. What a waste of a year of hard work. I have not gained it all back but more than half. Thank you for commenting and waking me up. Game on!
