Last week was a week of free days and it felt great to eat all that ice cream. I’m up a few lbs but that’s alright and I expect part of that to be water gain. I’m up like 4 lbs from last Sunday.
Anyway, today started the new period of weight loss and I’m back on the grind for the next 4.75 months, I would say longer but I expect to have a free week in for the week Christmas falls.
And besides, it’s keeping things real and I won’t drive myself insane.
I mean I’m in ranges and not over on anything yet but I also know that I can’t each anything else with FAT in it for the day, I’m already sitting at 61 grams of my allowed 63 grams. So, I’m sticking to veggies and fat free cheese and milk.
So, right now I’m in the middle of my calorie ranges and I’m not going to complain because at least I didn’t go over today. I had originally told my boyfriend I didn’t want to get a job until I was 230 lbs and that being 24 lbs away but I’ve decided that I’m just going to apply for a part time job at a convenience store here. Maybe I can get hired on, I’d prefer to do part time right now anyway, just do that and concentrate on losing the weight and then next year figure out what I want to go to college for. I was going to go for dental hygeniest but it seems that there’s no schools for it here and that sucks because what I was reading about it - sounded really interesting to me. I might still pursue it, I may just have to leave Odessa to do so, I don’t know.
I’m hoping amongst all hopes that I hit 200 lbs by the end of the year, just 54 lbs away, a lot less than what I had started at which was 287.5. So, fingers are crossed.
My mom had to be taken to the hospital yesterday because she dropped a huge piece of plywood on her foot and it start hurting her pretty good, it’s just a deep bruise so all is good but she had to be checked anyways because she’s diabetic and has neuropathy in both feet. So, I ended up going over on calories by a 1000. That sucks but I know that I’m working on a yard today which will kill a ton of calories and I know I have to eat lite today but then again, I have no choice, I feel stuffed right now.
Instead of the planned two days of rest from working out, it’s been 4 so far and I may take another, then start kicking butt again starting tomorrow. I haven’t decided yet, todays is scheduled for the gym and I kinda want to go and I kinda don’t. ( My back is feeling a little weird. )
I don’t know, I might still go … I stepped on the scale since I had one day this week that was completely outrageous and it read 262, so that would be 1.5 lbs down, providing it sticks till Monday. We’ll see.
I do know that I can handle to eat this way for the rest of my life, I actually prefer the healthy food over the junk food 90% of the time because I’m now noticing that if I have too much crap food in one day, I don’t feel so good the next day!
It had got down as low as 262.5 but that wasn’t to be and that’s alright, I did go over on calories by about 600 but now it’s back to the grind. I did learn though, if you’re going to go over if on purpose or by accident - come to think of it, you know damn well what’s gonna happen and you do it anyway, so it’s still on purpose. Anyway, I learned that if you’re going to do it, don’t do it before the day you weigh in, I probably would have hit 262 had it not been for that and so I mark that as a lesson learned.
The leader of the team posts the winner today ( me ) , so I’m taking the next two days off and then light to medium workout for two days, then I’ll be hitting the gym on Friday.
I’ve noticed that I’m gaining inches and that sucks but I’m certain that’s because of the backlash of doing 45 days of working out with no rest. So, I’ve gained fat somewhere and that sucks more than losing weight.
I ended up going over for the day * went out to eat *, going out to eat somewhere other than Subway usually leads to disaster unless I hadn’t ate that day then I do okay but considering I already had well then I screwed up. So, I changed up this weeks calories to soften the blow of today’s screw up. I’ll probably do a walk/jog session later tonight when it’s no so damn hot outside to help subside this screw up as well. I’ve already walked 30 minutes today and about 15 minutes on the gazelle so far but I feel that I need a little more to help out. I need to get back in the motivation with the food part, this is where I screw up the most, I am a queen when it comes to working out. That I can handle for the rest of my life, it’s the eating right all the time every day that gets me but I’ve noticed that when I do it every day and truly commit to it I don’t screw up, it’s when I let myself have that cheat day is when I screw up the most. I don’t think cheat days are allowed in my world or at least not right now.
