dec.2/10

dec 2 - it's not good. no loss this time, in fact, i gained .2 lb. not 2lbs- point 2 which is almost like staying the same.i thought being on vacation for two weeks would be good. get on the treadmill everyday. but that didn't exactly happen. so, back to work yesterday. maybe eating at reguler times and getting to bed early will get me back on track. here's hoping, ten more days, one more lb. - D

nov. 22 - another lb, yeah. i'm on vacation now and not eating as much through the day, but, sadly, snacking more at night. i seem to eat better when i'm working. i guess it's partly because i put things in smaller containers which might be a good idea for eating that way at home too. i've also started taking yoga classes.wow, it's hard but i like it. i'm trying to go as much as i can during my vacation to see if i can pick it up enough to follow a dvd. so far i'm not too confident. early days. still on the treadmill too. alternating between the two is a nice break. i'll see if it helps any in ten days time. - another ten days, another lb - D.

nov13/2010

nov 13 - a day late but a lb lighter. not quite to the halfway mak yet but hopefully before christmas. that will be the hardest thing, getting through the holidays safely. i'm a little ahead of schedule losing fifty by fifty, but i'd hate to slip too much. if i keep on the dreaded treadmill and stick to the endless bowls of cabbage soup i might squeak through. i guess i'll have to give away most of the shortbread cookies and peanut brittle. or, perish the thought, not make them at all ! no, some things have to be done for the holidays. still lots of time before then to work on the next few lbs. so off i go - another ten (now nine) days another lb gone-D.

nov.2/2010

nov.2 - yes,yes,yes! another (almost) 4lbs. that makes a total of 21lbs so far.creeping up to the half way mark. i still don't really see a difference but some of my jeans feel a little loose. i've officially moved from "obese" to "overweight". not exactly something to brag about. it's awful how the weight goes on so easy but takes so long to get off. if you had to work that hard to gain , i'm sure most of us would be in better shape.oh well, that's how it is i guess. so, ten more days to get closer to the half-way point. off i go -D.

oct. 24/2010

oct.24 - another lb, this one wasn't easy.another all-you-eat buffet, ohhh. that's gotta stop. but i was pretty good, lots of salad, some fish and turkey and very little dessert. still it's way too much food at one time. then today we had pizza at work and i had a piece. that's because i weighed myself this morning. now i have ten more days to work it off. i should be able to as long as i stay away from the buffets. ten more days, one more lb.

oct.13-2010

oct.13---one more lb!!! pretty good for thankgiving week, i resigned myself to gaining back a little so i'm quite pleased.turkey and gravy, apple crisp, and it was good too.you really need a treat once in a while so that's mine, maybe til christmas.    16 lbs and counting, ten more days, one more lb

oct.3/2010

oct. 3 --- not too bad this time, 2 more lbs.i ate out a couple times, trying to stick to stir fry or fish but it's hard sometimes.i think the biggest help is getting on the treadmill as much as possible. i finally got myself up to 45 minutes, now they say women need at least one hour of exercise everyday!! that's not going to happen. i don't even do any on the days i work. i guess that means packing more cabbage soup and unsweetened applesauce for lunches. stick to what works. --- ten more days and one more pound to go.
