DAY 62-MANDA

Well, today is WI day and so far I am retaining 2 pounds of water.... :(
Shouldn't have eaten that nasty burger last night....I was just so hungry and I didn't have time for anything else!! Anyway, I will update with my weight later....I am hoping that it will go down a little throughout the day....hoping.

This week was "one of those weeks" for me, ya know? It flew by so fast that I didn't realize how far behind on reaching my goal I was! This week was what I have been fearing, but I am going to be proactive about it so it doesn't get out of control. So I didn't reach my 28 AP goal, but will try and reach the same goal this week. Also, this week I am going to be doing the Simply Filling/Core plan to jump-start my system. I need to lay off of the junk for a while because the amount of junk I've been consuming has slowly increased! I know that if I eat mostly filling foods (F&V's & protein especially) I can get back under control. I HAVE to go grocery shopping today though! Ugh for going to Stillwater....perhaps I'll go to Cushing instead.

Also, I have a new idea as far as goals go...I think that if we want to set multiple goals every week we can/should and we should be able to get 5 points for every goal we accomplish. What do you think?? This week I want an exercise goal (28 AP's) and a food goal (keep a running tab of healthy guidelines every day). Is that ok or should I make those two separate weeks?

Day 60! Go us!
I think we should look back and see how much weight we have lost in this first 60 days! I am going to look back and post it here later when I tally it up!

So, when I list out all of the things I need in a day and keep a running tab, it seems like I am more able to get everything in. I think I will do that from now on.

DAY 59-MANDA

Sorry for my limited posting capabilities yesterday. I didn't bring my laptop because I was carrying so many books around and it was either fit my lunch in my backpack or fit my laptop. :)

So! How was the meditation class?!?! Did you go to WI too? I am so curious to know how everything went.

I am PMSing and wanting to eat everything, so for the next few days I am on a "restricted" diet, meaning only one small crappy thing per day. Everything else I eat must be for fuel.

I got my 5k entry form and plan on sending it in today. I decided to run in the Pistol Pete one here in Perkins. It is the Saturday following test block, but I think it will be fun and keep me training (and hopefully de-stressed).

One little thing that I REALLY want isn't going to mess everything up. I don't want it anymore and am no longer eating everything in sight trying to make the craving go away.) =7 points



I am really, really craving junk food right now. Seriously.
I need some cake/donuts/chocolate/caramel/etc.

So I waited for my "craving" to pass for two hours. It didn't. I think I am PMSing, but I don't really care. Those 10 points were well worth it. :)

Weigh-in: Well I maintained. I was pissed because the scale yesterday afternoon said I was a 1 1/2 lighter than today. But oh well. I did reach my goal of exercising 3 times this week and inch loss was good this week. Hips -1/2, Waist -1 1/2, Bust -1/2, Arm -1/2, Thighs -1/2. I think I shall keep up the exercise. I'll go for 4 times this week.

Maintain(3) + On plan all week(5) + reaching goal(5) + inch loss(5) + WW meeting(5) =23

Daily: vitamin, water, protein, tracking, 8 hours, limited sugar/alcohol, activity(30 day shred), oil(I've started having that olive oil mayo on my sandwich-it's really good). 8 for today.

I have to start doing better with my fruits and veggies. If I don't have a serving in the morning it seems almost impossible to get them all in.
