impulse purchase

I bought a danish cream cheese ring thing today at the grocery store....shaking my head as I walked to the checkout and paid for it. I was still shaking my head as I consumed half of it. What makes it even worse is that I was over at my parents' this afternoon. I was looking for bread to make a sandwich and opened the wrong damn cabinet. I found the cabinet where they keep their girl scout cookies and reese's PB eggs. Good lord. Who in their right mind can hang on to GS cookies for an entire year?!!? I mean, my daughter sells them and I push the fact that they can be frozen...but lord I had no idea people actually DO freeze them! Much less my own parents! So in addition to the danish I had 5 samoas. And Tuesday night this week I went out to eat with my parents at Taco Mac. Yeah I had a 28 point chicken burrito. So I've eaten all my extra points for this week and I in the negative! I haven't exercised in lord knows how long.

groan.

working the system

I gave in to my cravings today and ordered Papa Johns. I ate 4 pieces for 29 points. I feel so sick. If I vomit up the pizza, can I get my points back?

I have hardly exercised this week. This will be the second week in a row that I have eaten all 35 of my weekly points. Coupled with not exercising properly, I am not looking forward to the scales tomorrow morning.

weigh in

I am still at 295...where I have been for 2 weeks. For this I cannot complain because the way I have been eating, I would expect to be at 305. I will try and do better this week. I already have on exercise gear in anticipation of my next break from work when I will do my walk away the pounds DVD. Screw Jillian Michaels. I will do her when my breasts are small enough to not give black eyes during jumping jacks.

under the wagon... being run over by cupid (little turd)

Where has my will power gone?! I was doing so well! and now....I have been so bad. I am making some seriously poor decisions regarding this weight loss stuff. I went to the grocery store today and bought all kind of nasties. A piece of chocolate cake (at least it wasn't the whole cake) and TGI Fridays chicken quesadillas and these nasty little egg roll things... I was hungry and a little down. *groan* Now I am stuffed and a lot down. I know these cycles yet I still perpetuate them.

I put in the 30 day shred with Jillian Michaels and it was just as I suspected. I hate her. My boobs are far too big to do jumping jacks. When I go up, my boobs are still down. When my body comes down...my boobs are just now getting up! (and yes...I was wearing a very very tight sports bra). The recoil alone is going to kill my back. And then there are the pushups... and yes..Thats level 1! I dunno about this DVD...

Valentine's crashed my wagon

ooooooooooh the shame...I have so fallen off the wagon. I was doing great until the last 3 days when I decided to make red velvet cupcakes for my class and my daughter's class. I was unable to resist the creamy goodness of the cream cheese icing. I also put a Hershey's Kiss in the bottom of each cupcake to make it even sweeter. *rolls eyes* What was I thinking bringing that kind of temptation into the house?

Valentine's is my fav holiday for class parties. I always loved making the little Valentine's mailboxes and the goodies... ooooh the goodies! Valentine's is almost as good as Halloween as far as treats are concerned. I was weak against the power of the cupcake.

Today was especially bad. I brought the cupcakes to my class and had one. Then we went out for Mexican. Then I came home and had more cupcakes. Yes. Plural. CupcakeS. We won't talk about what I did to the container of icing. It's too ugly.

Lets just say that at 3:30 p.m. eastern, I am already 5 points over for the day, and I haven't had supper yet.

There is a lesson here, and it's that I now realize how even a little junk makes you crave more and more.

In an ironic twist, I ordered a new DVD today. The Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred, and it came today. I do not think I am going to like her very much...but from what I hear, it's supposed to be a good DVD.

Okay tomorrow is another day. I will try and do better.

Thank you for listening.

Been a while...

So I was a slacker this week about posting... I was mostly under my points but I think one day I went way over by 10 points! But that's okay because I was under by 16 points another day...it all comes out in the wash doesn't it?

I didn't lose any weight this week nor did I gain any. I am okay with that. I haven't exercised much this week though. I should do better.....regarding posting and losing weight!

:D

mmmmmmmmmmm BBQ

I have decided that if i can make it through 4.5 hours of radiology lecturing w/o ripping the vending machine off the wall and smashing through the glass to gorge myself on as many snickers bars that I can fit into my mouth, then it's been a good morning. Today was just such a morning. Although I desparately wanted to eat the entire contents of the vending machine in an effort to stay awake and not throw myself from the tallest ledge I could find, I managed to resist those urges. Instead of a snickers bar, I allowed myself a bag of baked lays (2 points) and a diet coke (I needed the caffiene).

I also did my 3 mile walk away the pounds DVD today.

Breakfast was shredded wheat and fat free milk. 3 points.

Lunch was a ham sammich grapes and pineapple. 7.5 points.

Snack was baked lays and yogurt covered pretzels. 7 points.

Dinner was a glorious BBQ sammich from DQ and a casear salad. 11 points.

That's 28.5 points thus far. I may indulge in something a little later. Right now my domestic and scholastic duties are waiting.

okay finally exercised again today

Today I am officially back on the wagon. I did not exercise any last week, but today I have done it. I must keep it up! (she says trying to beat it into her head....)

This weekend I was a little down. Bad few weeks at clinicals coupled with lack of exercise and I wasn't eating as well as I could have. I went over my points by a couple the last two days. I know it isn't a lot, but I was not exercising and I was feeling sorry for myself. I am an emotional eater... if I could curl up with some pizza and cheesecake I damn sure would! So next week is going to be better....exercise wise and attitude wise.

Today I had shredded wheat for breakfast and skim milk. 3 points.

I exercised and then had a late lunch consisting of one of those kangaroo pita pouches things filled with casaer salad. 4 points.

Dinner was 2 turkey dogs with buns and ketchup. I also had some stir fry veggies. Not the best combination....but it filled me up. 13.5 points.

Snacks included fresh pineapple and yogurt covered pretzels. 6.5 points.

So that's 27 points for the day, 8 under my 35 total. Yes Sue :) I know I am supposed to eat all my points, but it's 9:30 p.m. right now and I am full up to my eyeballs. I am going to study and hit the sack and dream of cheesecake from the cheesecake factory... and lots and lots of cheesy pasta... mmmmmmmmmm....
