A personal blog on the battle of the buldge!
A lady that is on NS and lives close to me is trying to set up a lunch date to meet other people that are on NS in our area. It is for April 29th and I need to decide pretty soon if I am going or not!! I kinda want to go but I've never really been a very sociable person and I really don't want to go by myself! I'm trying to convince Jordanna and Denise that they should come with me but I'm not sure if either of them want to go!? So now I need to decide if I should go by myself and venture outside of my comfort zone to meet new people? Or resort back to my old self and not go!? I'm pretty sure I know what everyone will tell me to do and I know what I should do. I think I'll try and talk to Denise about it tonight and see what she has to say!? I'll probably go with or without them, but I do hope at least one of them will join me! ;)
Since I will be away tomorrow morning I wanted to post my Fun Friday stuff today. So scoll down to see today's post! ;)
This clip is too funny!! I could not believe the number of people that had no clue as to what they were signing! ??
I'm also hoping that I will do ok this weekend with all the family activities and meals! I honestly don't think I will be seeing any big numbers on my next weigh in either. With having this cold I sure don't have the energy to excercise and with the challenge of going to two Easter dinners I may endulge a bit more then I should!? But there's always the week after - right?
I feel like crap today, I feel like a wind-up toy that has been wound too tight! I'm trying to fight off a cold that I think I caught from my hubby, so far it's just a mild sore throat but I'm hoping that it doesn't turn into a full blown cold (like he has). So I loaded up with drugs last night to try and fight this bug but I think I'm the only person in the world that can't sleep after taking cold medication! I was so tired but all I did was toss and turn all night! The last time I looked at the clock it was 2:00AM !! I'm beat today, when I don't get enough sleep I tend to get grouchy and it doesn't take much to set me off! So look out! ;)
It doesn't help that my weigh in today was not the best, not the worst either but I'm still a little upset by the efforts I have been putting into this weight loss thing. Last night was grocery shopping day so we decided to grab a bite to eat on our way, we went to Dairy Queen, all I really wanted was a ice cream to make my throat feel better but instead I went for the vegetarian quesadilla. I'm sure it's one of their better choices but it had way too much cheese and I could feel it hit my stomach, I should have just stuck with the Chicken Caesar salad. I really need to concentrate more on my portions and stopping when I feel full! I've always been a plate cleaner - not finished till my plate is clean! Even if I feel like I'm going to burst and there is only 2 more bites, I'll consider it a test and force them in! I must stop when I start to feel full!! I feel that I have seen a huge physical change in me but I still need to work on my mental state, if I can't correct my "fat" mentality it won't take long and I will be right where I was 8 months ago! I need to focus more on my lifestyle - get those 30 minutes of exercise in (even if I'm feeling a little sick) and either take smaller portions or I need stop feeling guilty about throwing food away and just not eat it! So since it was grocery shopping night I never got my walk in either - I knew I wasn't going to be seeing any loss this week and I was right!
Week 32 =183.8lbs
(+0.2lbs)
I suppose it could have been way worse and 0.2lbs shouldn't really count - it was probably cause my hair was still wet! ;)
I can hardly wait for this weekend to get here, even though it is going to be filled with lots of "diet" challenges. We have a family dinner on Friday and another one on Sunday!! It will be a test of my will power and hopefully I'll pass - I guess the next weigh in will be my score!? :) I can honestly say that loosing weight was way easier when I had more of it too loose (which makes sense) and I am glad that I was a little stricked on my diet at the beginning cause I'm sure that if I was slack about it then I still would be now and it would be twice as hard to drop this weight!
On the plus side, as some of you know I had my dentist appointment yesterday and my teeth are nice,white and polished today! I hate getting them cleaned, having them scrap my teeth and the fluoride treatment is even worse but it is totally worth it!! Thank goodness for benefits !!
Happy Hump Day! ;)
