Today Blew Big Time

So today sucked big time on the weight loss thingy....I guess I am going to wait until after the holidays are over to really get on the weight loss bandwagon. I haven't been that bad but those darn brownies have been calling me for two days now. I can't wait until they are all gone!!

Anyways, I am off to start dinner and get the kids started on cleaning up before bedtime..Better luck tomorrow!!

43 Things : Lose Weight

Lost .4 pounds!!

Yes I weigh myself every morning..like clockwork...I get up first thing go to the bathroom and then immediately get on the scale.

I lost .4 pounds over the last day.

No I am not changing the damn ticker again because stupid tickerfactory doesn't let you make a ticker that you can change without making an entirely new one. I am searching for a better alternative to Tickerfactory.

Anyways, Today so far has gone well except for I was sick when I woke up. So far today I have had about 3 swallows of coffee and a mountain dew. Wonderfully nutritious don't you think??

I am busy busy busy today so I probably won't eat a whole lot.

Gotta get back to work,

Note To Self:

NEVER ever ever go to Krogers on an empty stomach!! My mother has always told me this but for some reason I have never listened. I went in today to get a few things and ended up spending nearly 300.00!!! On the upside of that we have enough groceries for almost two weeks stockpiled!

Today I have pretty much been good food wise. I have had several cups of coffee and really nothing to eat unless you count that one mouthful of ramen noodles I made for the kids for lunch. Don't get me wrong...I am not trying to starve myself today I have just been very busy and coffee tends to work well for me as an appetite suppressant. I am planning on switching to hot tea though after this cup is finished.

Check my other blog to see what else is going on with me.

Well I am off to finish my chores for the day..
Be back later..

Down A Little More

I got on the scale this morning and saw that I was down a little more!! Hooray!! And this is without exercise!! Imagine what will happen when I add in some running or Tae Bo!!

I will be making lots of goodies this weekend..Fireside Coffee Mix, and Rum Balls..Yummy. I am going to be good though and not eat all the rum balls.

Will come back on later and post more about my day after it has happened. Off to drink some coffee!!

I Should Have A Halo After This Afternoon

I should be wearing a Halo on my head right now....I did not eat one single cookie at the Christmas Parties today!! I am so proud of myself!! Now dinner tonight will be a different story. I am starving as all I have had today is that wonderful burrito this morning. Maybe I will have some yummy veggie soup tonight. It is going to be cold.

Anyways, Gotta go and get some cleaning done and figure out what I am going to cook for dinner.

Already Blew It Today

So Bart calls me after he drops the kids off at school and asks me if I am hungry....

DUH!!! Of course I am hungry!! I wake up hungry and go to bed hungry...My appetite is completely out of control!!

So of course I say, "yes I am hungry" To which he replies.."since you can chew now do you want a supersonic breakfast burrito?" To which I reply.."sure I haven't had one of those gut bombs in awhile"

Here is the nutrient breakdown of a Supersonic Breakfast Burrito:

About 3 greasy chopped up fake eggs....
Chopped up greasy sausage...
Greasy Cheese..
Onions
Tomatoes
and Greasy Tater tots thrown in for more fat content...
Oh and let's not forget the Jalapenos...
They are large and very filling...
and if you get the combo they serve it up with a coke and some more tater tots..
I absolutely love them!! My thighs and stomach however hate them...I can feel myself spreading now!

Here is the nutrition information on the REGULAR breakfast burrito from Sonic..Keep in mind that the Supersonic is probably twice as much as this one...

Sonic Breakfast Burrito (214 g)
616 Calories

1535 mg.Sodium
26 g Protein
326 Calories

Let's just say it is not a healthy breakfast..
Anyways...I have Christmas Parties to go to now so I will have to try extra hard to be good while I am there around all the cookies, candies, and cupcakes...

So Here We Go

So here's the story. I just turned 30 last month. Not an earthshattering experience but I realized shortly thereafter that I had put on about 30 pounds in the last two years. So I made a decision. I refuse to be 30 and FAT!

One of my new years resolutions for 2006 is to start eating healthier and drinking more water and getting regular exercise in order to lose about 30 pounds. If I can accomplish this I will be down to 133 pounds. (actually I would be happy at about 10 pounds heavier than that but why not set a harder goal right?)

I know what I need to do to get there but the hardest part is starting and sticking to the exercise part. I am always very gung ho at the start and then get bored nearly immediately...either that or I overdo it and burn out within a couple of weeks.

So anyways...there it is..my reason for starting this blog. I am planning on using it as a way to hold myself accountable for my eating and exercise habits. Let's see what unfolds.
