Yikes - two weeks!

Yep - it's been two weeks. I'm getting lax with this blog and with going to my WIs. I'm going about once a week just so that I can remain a member and buy the vitamins and supplements. I haven't stayed on program, but I'm really living and eating healthy. I have about one night a week that I eat pizza and/or have a few beers. The rest of the week I pretty much stick to the program. For instance, I went out to eat and had a grilled chicken sandwich meal. I took the top bun off and sliced the bottom in half for my chicken. And I substituted the fries for a cup of vegetable soup. My weightloss has slowed but continues.

I work out in the gym about 5 days a week for 45 - 60 minutes. I LOVE doing cardio and I know that I have to start on the weights, but I'm feeling really good. Right now I have some clothes that are 10s and some that are 8s. The 8 GV pants I have on today are falling down. All of my shirts are petite medium - the large just hang on me, so they look gross. I've given all of my 14s and XLs to my older sis. I'm keeping the 12s and 10s and larges, because they cost a bundle and I still don't trust myself not to yo-yo back up.

I told the counselor at S4L that I wanted to change my goal weight to 135 and she said sure - it's my program. Rock on - she's my favorite! I'm almost there. I have school tonight so I'll go for a WI tomorrow. My last one was last Tuesday (10/24).

It's hunting widow weekend, so I'm going to go out to a club with a girlfriend who I haven't seen in months. Won't she be surprised?! Anyway, that's all I have for now.

I'm heeeere...

Weigh in day - new post - a little drunk. I've been really bad sometimes and really good sometimes. Usually when I'm bad, though, I workout like an anorexic on a chocolate bender. Anyhoo, it's Friday, I've had a few glasses of wine and I'm going to watch TransAmerica and eat as much popcorn as I want. So nyah! I'm a size 8!

Weekend *-up

Okay - so Friday I had a pretty good weigh-in (stats to follow this post). When I got home I went over to my dear friend's house across the street. She and her husband are moving about 4 hours away and I was helping them pack. We had beer and pizza. WAY off plan, but sometimes you have to loosen up right?

So I decided that the rest of the weekend I'm going to try the 3-day "de-carb" protein fest thing. I don't think it's working. I'm not going to tell the couselors either.

I just want to get through this diet. I'm SOOOOOOOOOOO bored with it. I miss cheese and pizza and burritos and chips and cookies and ice cream and half n half in my coffee and... Well, you just can't live this diet. It's so temporary and whoever tells you it's not is a liar.

According to my contract with Slim4Life I'm supposed to get down to 130, with clothes on! I can't do that, it just can't happen. I was 135 in high school. Okay - so I was 118 when I met my husband, but I was 23 and had about five jobs and never ate. I'm 42 years old. I can't get down to 130. I want to get down to 135 (nekked) and stay under 140. That will be okay - I can live with that. My clothes will fit - I'll be a size 8, a medium - I can live with that.

I know - nulla dies, blah blah blah

It's been a while. I'm stalled in the weightloss, but I've been cheating like crazy - with pretzels of all things! Not even beer! Everyone at bowling said I looked great, so that felt good.

I still need to lose 15 more according to S4L and I only have 5 weeks to do it in or I have to pay for more weeks (which I absolutely refuse to do). One of those weeks was a freebie too! If I go 3 times this week I'll get another free one, so maybe that's what I'll do. I just don't know.

I'm also thinking about going on the 3 day flush thing. I'll ask about it today if I go. My exercising is down to 5 days a week because of school. I should just go home tonight and do the treadmill before bed.
