The Struggle Continues

Holy Moses! I'm still alive and kicking, not much happening on the weight loss front. The only saving grace in the matter is I'm not gaining but crap I'm not losing either. I know it's my fault for not being as diligent as I should have been. There have been a few family matters that cropped up ( my mothers health) that have had me a bit stressed out but that should prompt me to be even better. So until next time.Michelle

My Thanksgiving was BRUTAL? How about yours?


Can we say binge? I didn't do good with my holiday meal at all! I'm not going to beat myself up over it though because I didn't really TRY to be good. Up until the holidays I'd been pretty good and now that Thanksgiving is over I'm going to stay on track until Christmas! Hope everyone did better than me! if not don't beat yourself up about it,lets just do better!

I'm Back!

Ok folks I bailed out on blog for a few weeks but I'm back! I had a little summer romance that kept me occupied for a bit but I'm back! Not too sure if the summer romance is following me into the fall but we'll see . I didn't get too off track though and did manage to lose 4pounds in the process. Also my youngest started kindergarten this week that means more time for just ME! Ever just need ME time? Hell I do, so I'm more excited than SHE is right now that the's going to school! Ok just checking in for now and back on the straight and narrow for me and regular blogging! Have a good one,Michelle

Time Flys!

My goodness! I missed a few days of blogging but I certainly didn't mean too it just kind of happened! I didn't get to take my Saturday pics this week, my sister wasn't around but like I said before, no big changes in that arena. This weekend I'll try just setting up my tripod and using my camera settings so I can take the pics myself.

The eating has been going ok. BUT I went to my moms house on Sunday and she had a big Sunday dinner. I didn't go overboard or anything but it was unplanned.


Let's see what else? Today I officially have a Teenager! My baby is 13 today  awwwww seems like just yesterday I had her. Hope everyone is well,Michelle

Back on Track


Just a quick blog to write that I got back on track today! I was home all day just watching Animal Planet with the kidlets today. They have a lot of kind of interesting shows that I would have never thought anyone.....let alone myself would have had the slightest interest in. I've been watching a show called Whale Wars.....I'm telling you ANYONE or  ANY TOPIC can warrant a reality show these days!.

Also tomorrow is picture day , I'm not anticipating any visible changes......but I'll take em anyways! Have a great night,Michelle



Whale Wars- Check it Out!

Sugar to Shit (Grrrrr)

So my morning started out absolutely fabulous! I went to bed on time the night before so I woke up nice and refreshed ( ha!), my ankle that was bothering me the previous day was also feeling great and my limp was gone ( yea!).

My morning plugged along and I even was using my food tracker app! Easy peezy! I was eating good tracking my intake did great all through lunch! Let's all scream SUGARRRRR!



Then it all turned to SHIT!



I was walking in the mall and got to feeling a bit "munchy" and HAD to have a pretzel with cheese. So I ate it.

That should have been the end of it right?  Noooooo.

Walked  a little more and walked my big behind right up to the counter at Baskin Robbins and ordered a single scoop cone. Now at this point I really felt bad because there was NO hunger involved! I just wanted it.

Now for the next part of the demise of my day here's a little background.

Anyone else watch those blasted food shows ? Well last night  on Man vs. Food  he was showing these awesome burger joints. Well they showcased a burger called the Jucy Lucy ( yes that's how they spelled JUICY!) This burger was basically two thin patties that between them you load with cheese and then cook.

So you know what I said right? " I can make that at home!"

And I did.

 

So that was my dinner. My homemade Jucy Lucy burger. My only saving grace was that I REFUSED to make any type of fries to go with it! Goodness. Just a terrible eating day for me. So now that I've blogged about it, confessed I'm going to move on and have a better day tomorrow. I hope YOUR day was better than mine. Wish me a better day tomorrow,Michelle

Good Day/Bad Day


So today my entire morning was filled by a absolutely BORING.........let me say it again BORING agency meeting. The highlight of my day was they provided lunch......... and not just a free lunch but it was actually fairly healthy and I was able to stay on track. Some little box lunch that was put together by one of the local delis.

I  had a turkey and swiss sandwich, a small ( and I mean small, damn thing had like 4 chips in it?) bag of chips and a small cookie. It wasn't too bad.

Bad news is my ankle hurt like hell ALL day, If it just hurt a bit I would just tweak a few things, my walking shoes etc, but it's freaking me out a bit more because it's the ankle I broke two years ago I have a bolt on the inside of the ankle and a long plate along the other side. The plate side is killing me! I'm even limping a bit. I'm hesitant to do any type of working out,walking( treadmill) on it until I have the doc check it out for me. I had a really nasty slip and fall as soon as I got to work two years ago and on paper I was rated a bit disabled because of it but it's never given me any problems until yesterday. So I'll get it checked out.


Let's see what else? Oh during the above mentioned boring meeting I downloaded a workout app to my iphone called ifitness and later on another blog I heard good things about a calorie/intake tracker called Lose It! So I'll start using those tomorrow. Hope everyone had a great day,Michelle

**it Us Fat Folks Need to STOP!!


#1 -And please believe this list WILL grow!


Stop trying to find someone fatter than you to call fat! I mean REALLY? What purpose does it serve? Now I'll be the FIRST to admit I've done this! ( and don't play........you have too!) no one wants to be the REAL fat one! So you find or see someone bigger than you, and the FIRST thing you think...... well at least I'm not THAT big! Or the old well I'm this big....but I'd NEVER let myself get THAT big!

In two words.......

BITCH PLEASE.


I never thought I'd be this big either, but here I sit, big as all out doors. It doesn't matter that other folks may be bigger, MY ass is still fat. Other folks need to realize this as well......if you do this....stop it. It doesn't matter if you weigh a measly 15lbs less than someone else your ass is still fat too. So instead trying to build yourself up by putting someone else down, let's ALL get the extra weight off and get healthy!

Could It Be?


That exercise is slowly but surely becoming part of my life? Let me tell you a lil something about me.................I hate  exercise,no let me start over since hate is such a strong word. I strongly dislike exercise. I always have. In the past I pretty much only exercised when I found myself with 10lbs I wanted to drop. I'd do it and that was it. I never had ANY intention of continuing once I had what I wanted.

I now realize maybe if I had just found something I liked to do I wouldn't be in this predicament now! Everyone that exercises doesn't LOVE it. But they do it because it's good for them. That's how I want to be. Hopefully with time I'll get there. Cross your fingers for me!

After almost talking myself out of my treadmilling yesterday,guess who jumped on today and it wasn't even my long workout day?MEEEEEEEEEEE!!

AND

 I was down another 1/2lb on the scale! This time around it's definitely coming off slower but as long as I KNOW I'm eating right and exercising, I'm not going to sweat the scale....AT ALL. Hope everyone is having a great day,Michelle

Ummm Excercise?


Hey Yall! I skipped a blogging day yesterday, I was using my mini HP and for some odd reason it was acting up. I'm not too happy about that  and will have to look into it. I have that lil baby with me all the time and it's perfect for blogging ,surfing etc. ANYHOO!

So I was on the treadmill today and was DREADING it! I mean to the point where I was really talking myself into getting off after 15 min even though I was only in minute THREE! WTF! Now mind you I've only committed myself to 30 minutes anyways......So for me to feel like flaking out after 3 minutes LMAO!  But I fought the good fight and stayed on my entire time......the last 2 minutes I was even singing, but honey let me tell you...when I stepped my big ass off that treadmill I was like where the hell is the energy I'm supposed to have? Helllloooooo where are you?


Anyone else out there watching the show Ruby? I'm a self confessed reality show junkie but I'm new to her show. I find her to be pretty entertaining so far so I'm going to continue to tune in and see how she progresses. Hell hopefully  we'll drop the pounds together!


Side note: Ruby said she hasn't worn pants in about 30 YEARS? Geez I can't even imagine! Go Ruby! In case you've never heard of the show here's a link. Check out Ruby!
