Here's to a great start to week 3 :)

My enemy!! The weekend....

Didn't do terrible, could've done better. Why is it that I am not able to exercise on the weekends? it just doesn't happen. There are just too many other fun things to do with my family and sorry for my bum, but that has to be the bigger priority right now. The main thing is if I'm not able to get the exercise in then I really have to watch what I am eating- big time. I think that I did really good, all things considered I could've really pigged out. We went to a lunchtime show at a stadium- hello, fries, hot dogs, popcorn, ice cream, etc- NOPE, none for me thanks :) ChuckEcheese today, I ate at the salad bar thank you very much...... though..... yeah that birthday cake was just too yummy to pass up and I actually had to physically move where I was sitting so that I didn't continue to eat more of it. Anywho.. heres the breakdown!

I Need to start drinking more water and tracking it better. No more coffee drinks- takes up a 1/4 of my cal intake for the day, but those pumpkin spice lattes are sooooo yummy!!!

After eating cake last night- there was still a half sheet left and yes this is wasteful, but I dumped the rest down the garbage disposal. Its better than me eating it all today!

Here's to a great friday :)

Still here.....

Hmmmm.... the whole point of this thing here was for me to blog daily and keep myself accountable. So easy to fall into and out of habits! Not really, its just been a super busy week with Back to school nights, dance classes and girl scouts starting, etc. Just stuff but I am still doing good- still going strong. Eating well and exercising.

I am a big list person. I make myself a monthly, weekly and then daily list. I have my food intake, exercise written down just don't have time right now to copy it all to here. I will try and do a big week post on here tomorrow. Tonight I'm going to go watch biggest loser and get re-inspired!

Weekend and weigh in...

The weekend was okay- well better than okay, I had a blast. Just okay as far as eating goes. 2 kid birthday parties, on Saturday I didn't even give my eating a second thought- hot dog, hamburger, salads and chips and then cake!! Ofcourse not a bit of exercise was to be done either- go figure. Sunday on the other hand I ate only carrots, grapes, melon and popcorn at the party- not gonna sabotage myself the day before weigh in again!

Sooo.... got up this morning and....

165!!!!!! Yay me!!!! There is nothing like seeing the number go down to keep the motivation going :)

After that got to the gym and did 30 minutes on a sort of elliptical machine and then a 30 minute bike ride, felt great- I did not track my calories today, but am afraid that I am under again.

To be honest I'm feeling totally icky lately- I think I need to have my bloodwork done and my THS levels tested cause I'm an emotional wreck and sort of feeling a lot like I did right before I got started on the synthroid. Anyway- it doesn't make me want to eat... like AT ALL. It was 1pm before I ate, and only because I knew that I needed some fuel in my system.

So although I should feel totally elated about my loss I'm not. I'm just feeling like a big old mess....... yup.... time to make that appointment.
