feb 10 - this is my version of e=mc2 -- shovelling snow + salads - bread&potatoes = -4lbs !!!!! finally, back to what i need to be doing, i hope to stay there . we'll see in another 10 days. - D.

january 31, 2011

jan 31 - another setback, 1/2 lb gained. it's depressing eating soup, getting on the treadmill, passing on the sweets and still gaining weight. the girls at work said to try something different so i think i might change up the exercise a little. i have a stepper and another gadget plus a ball so maybe i'll do a different routine each day. plus i think i'm eating too much bread and potatoes and i suppose i could cut way back on that too. i'll give it a go and see what the next ten days brings. - D.

jan 21-2011

jan 21 -  done. another 1 1/2 lbs. the extra christmas weight is gone and so i feel like i'm back on track. let it snow let it snow let it snow, the shovelling is doing it's job. right now it's actually raining so i guess it's time for the treadmill again. back in ten days, hopefully another lb gone -D.

jan.11/2011

jan.11 - back on track, i think. two of the three lbs gone. more snow coming tomorrow so i'm going to try shovel away another two! if that doesn't work , well, i have a treadmill, a stepper and yoga and i'm out of excuses cause christmas is over. back in ten days, another two, hopefully, lbs lighter. - D.

jan 1 - 2011

jan 1 - not good, not good at all. christmas, cookies, chips. 3 extra pounds, on, not off. crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nuf said. back in ten, with at least one of those three gone!-D.

dec 23-2010

dec.23--- oh, yeah, another almost 3 lbs, 2.8 to be exact. i'm very happy to say that i'm at the halfway mark. i just hope the next half goes as ,well, not easy, but quickly. i've asked santa for a little bit more energy because i know already that i'll be eating more over the holidays so i need to burn more off somehow. somebody snuck in and left shortbread cookies, coconut macaroons, peanut brittle and magic bars in my kitchen. evil, evil i say. not to mention the three bags of my most favourite potato chips. i hope i get lots of company. if not, the people i work with might be well fed after christmas. i could freeze it of course but then it's still there where i can hear it. i think i better ask for more willpower too before it's too late. - here's to the next ten days and , by some christmas miracle, another lb gone - D.

dec.13/2010

dec 13.- a bit better this time. not quite a lb, point 8 but at least it's going in the right direction again. i'm trying to adjust to my new 8 hr shifts. not used to working everyday. i think it will take time to get used to, i'd  like to get on the treadmill each day before or after work eventually, for now though i'll be happy with a couple times a week. it's like starting over and getting into a new groove, which, as soon as i do i'll probably change shifts again. oh well, always something new. - here's to the next ten days and another pound (hopefully) gone. - D.
