3/1 Wed
Well today I didn't keep track of my calories.. I had one of those days where nothing went on like normal... I didn't eat my normal breakfast... grabbed a slim fast shake as I ran out the door at 10:30 to get kiddo from school she got hit in face with a ball and got a bloody nose then got an upset stomach .. so she came home early...which is funny cause it was early release day at 1 om anyway.. so we went and grabbed some movies like we always do on early release day...grabbed some chicken strips and a soda... came home took care of kiddo, watch movies then hubby grabbed subs from subway for dinner...had a subway melt with a ton of veggies and no chips or soda...so not the best thing but could have been worse.. had one cookie too...Trying to get as much water in me as possible tonight while I sit here.
One good thing is the scale is starting to creep back down to my had earned numbers... whooohoooo!! So hopefully by the end of the week I can report a loss again.
Didn't get my workout in today either.. maybe a good thing cause my back and elbows were really tense and sore last night and this morning but back on the horse tomorrow.
My wed. always seem to be goofy like this.. maybe cause my hubby has them off and so he is here at the house where I am usually home alone all day so I can get all goofy working out with out an audience...lol
But that's all for me!!! I would rank it BAD but not Ugly today!!

Seriously though, losing weight is very difficult. If it were so easy, there would be no obesity epidemic. True, your period does cause you to gain a few pounds due to added fluid, bloating, and swelling of "the girls." Also, some meds like Birth Control and antidepressants also cause weight gain. Those arent excuses. You didnt cheat, you have kept up with your exercise. And the only person you cant ever lie to is yourself.
Granted the single MTN Dew didnt sabotage your diet, but it didnt help either. Too much caffeine and sugar is bad for weight loss. Try Diet Mtn Dew if possible and then when you feel comfortable, drop that as well. I know there are lots of things I didnt want to give up, but then I realized there were so many other important things in life that I wanted that had nothing to do with food. Eat to live, not live to eat. That's what I try and do every day. You can do this, I know you can.

I found out about anti-depressants making you gain weight the hard way. If I knew about this side effect when the doctor put me on them..along with all the other side effects, I would never have gone on them. I gained about 60 pounds in total from taking paxil. I have been completely off of it for 12 days now.

Slacking at postsing
I know I know...I am a slacker for posting...lol... I am doing just fine.. pushing myself a few extra mins a day on elliptical... I LOVE IT...I go to the doctors tomorrow for the dreaded yearly.. but I am going to have them run blood work on me so I know what my levels are on everything so I have something to compare for next years...also to make sure I am not deficient on anything. I have just been busy and when I do come on here I just want to goof around and veg or work on my web pages stuff...trying to learn new things each day.. working the brain burns calories too!!
OH YEAH.. My new fav. BOCCA BURGERS....better then turkey burgers by millions...lol HUBY came home from work the other night CRAVING one...lol. how goofy is that!! Kiddo wants them every night!
Hope everyone is doing great~!!

Bocca burgers are great! They even serve them at my university student union. GRanted, they cook them where they just had greasy hamburgers sitting, but better than eating the hamburger! Also Morningstar brand I think it is has a spicy black bean (vegetarian) burger that's fantastic.

I will have to look for that burger by morning star... I used the ground meat by morning star and it tasted ok but broke down really bad.. kiddo was dying for hamburger helper so I used it in that.. I think maybe ok if you just add to the sauce but cooking with everything broke it down. But kiddo loved it and I was happy that I saved all the yuk from hamburger.

LoL Brain calories! Too true. I will have to try the Boca Burgers, I was just getting used to the turkey burgers, but if these are better then I will definitely have to give them a try!

Doing good!!
Well just a lil note to say I am doing good dropped more wieght!! 319 now. can't believe what a difference 24 pounds can make in how I feel... I put on a pair of pants that my mom bought me last spring, that when she got them I could put them on but they were tight in the thighs so I never wore them.. I put them on yesterday and they are really lose in the thighs now. like 2 inches bag on each leg... made me feel great.. I can't imagine how 299 is going to feel...lol.. I am going to have to break down and get some clothes though...cause I can't stand the really baggy feeling.. wich is funny cause before I liked baggy clothes like lounge pants. now I don't want to wear them out in public...they make me feel sloppy looking and I don't feel like a sloppy person anymore!! But I hate going and buying new clothes that I hopefully wont fit again in another 2 months... asked my mom if she can take some of mine in a bit for now just to get me by.. then when I reach my first goal on my birthday I will go buy some cool new stuff!! Can' wait to buy my first pair of jeans.. I haven't worn Jean in 3 years cause I cant get any that fit my weird butt...lol..YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHh..
Well all is good no ugly here this time!! Think I will go give my hair an update to go along with my new feeling about my body!!
