WEIGH IN GOAL!!!

Got up this morning, and had a good think about yesterday.  Lay in bed chatting with the Husbeast, and we agreed that we are pretty lucky people and have nothing to complain about.  Its true.

A case of the grumpies has been knocked back.

ALSO, today is goal day, and you are going to laugh at this.  I just realized that I made my goal weight yesterday.   296.6.  I was thinking my goal was 296.0    Jeez, pay attention lady.  

so I am happy to report this mornings weigh in!

295.8lbs

WOOT!!

I need to go in and adjust all my goals for the sooner date of my Iceland vacation, so I will do that today or this weekend. Where ever I can find the time. 

YAY YAY YAY!!!!

Sunday Weigh In

Got up and weighed in!

Feb 12, 2012 - 297.6lbs.

That's down 5.8lbs from last Sunday, but only down .2lbs from the week before.   I have been doing some fluctuating in changing my eating, and exercise.  So I'm happy with this.   I have 6 days to get to 296 - my goal for that date.  I'm hoping to get down to around 294, so I'm going to work hard.

I haven't updated my goals yet - but I'm going to, I'm going to aim to lose 20lbs a month for three months.  I know that is a significant loss/change of behavior.  I am going to be uncomfortable, and keep my focus.

WOOWOO~

That being said, we are having our "gaming" day with friends, and they are particularly uncaring about the calories that they consume.  Today is going to be a challenge, but I'm up for it.

Right Pony... I'm doing this for me and you

Today...Pony of the Day is brought to you by this website.

Sunday Weigh In

First thing... weigh in. 

I guess I never decided on an official weigh in day, but I try to weigh everyday (and write it on my pink sticky notes next to the computer), but don't want to bother to post it.  I did update the side bar with each day I tracked, and am VERY pleased with the trend.

Today's weigh in:  297.8lbs.  That's -8.8lbs

I'm still 2 weeks out from my -10 goal, so I'm very pleased!!!!!!!  Keeping on going just as I am now and I should be in good shape for that first goal. :)

We had some friends over for breakfast today.   I am not used to cooking for a big crowd, so I'm glad they brought along some mini kolache's to add to the mix.  It was 11.15 before we ate anything!  So really it was brunch. 

I made "healthy-ish" pancakes.  I mixed Bisquick, Bobs Red Mill 12 grain pancake mix, eggs, & water.  Mixed with a strong arm and then in a pan with fat free spray.

I counted it all out and each pancake was 1/2c batter (used my measuring cup to pour into the pan) and came in at 190 calories. Not too bad, they were a good size.   I'm only just getting hungry now, and its been 5 hours since we ate.    I've got dinner planned out, so I'll be down getting that ready once I'm done here!

Hip.... its feeling better, not 100% YET, but much better.  This morning I was moving around with no pain, just a slight stiffness.  Now, after some stairs, in and out with the dog to the groomers, rough housing a little with the friends kids, and standing all morning...its feeling tired and sore.   More ice tonight and back to bed early.

Meatless Monday, Weights & Weigh In

MEATLESS Monday!   I come home at lunch and watch The Chew most days - it is bliss being so close to the office.  Today they had meatless monday as the theme and it fit well into today's eating, so we decided to skip the meat tonight at dinner to round out the day as veggie only.

After work I got in a 20min walk with the dog, and then hit my weights program.  I was determined to get in three sets.  AND I DID!!

Set 1.
10 sumo squats with KB between legs /crunches - 50
15 KB swings / planks - 15 count
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm /wall sits - 25 count
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm / push ups - 20

Set 2.10 sumo squats with KB between legs / crunches - 40
15 KB swings / planks - 12 count
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm / wall sits - 25 count
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm / push ups - 20

Set 3.10 sumo squats with KB between legs / crunches - 50
15 KB swings / planks - 12 count
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm / wall sits - 25 count
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm / push ups - 20

And here I am... all done and sweaty.

 


The dog was less impressed......




















Food was much better today,  ate well, and enjoyed my food, but didn't feel panicy or like I needed to consume more.  I saw the treats that were out on my co-workers desk, but really didn't have much interest.  I was really busy today, so that always helps.

Weigh In:

The good stuff.... I weighed in this morning with low expectations, that were not unfounded.  My feet and hands were puffy, I was retaining water from all the salt that I had on Saturday and Sunday and I could feel it.  My feet were swollen all day today in fact, it wasn't until I finished my weights that I finally felt mostly normal.

1-23-2012 - 306.6 lbs

I'm excited for next week though - I think that it will be a significant loss, I'm wearing my favorite hoodie right now and it feels a looser, so there are things afoot!!
