Weigh In 10/19/09

I lost 3.1 lbs this week!  I'm so happy with that.  I didn't work out very well but I tried to clean up my food.  Had a couple meals where we ate pizza but was good the rest of the week I think.  Hopefully, I can keep this up and finally get my workouts started again.  I'm hoping to walk today at lunch (if it's not too cold).

What The Funk!

So I realized today that I'm in some sort of funk that I can't seem to break out of.  I'm tired all the time, I'm eating like crap and I just don't seem to care about anything anymore.  My house is a wreck because I don't care what it looks like, there's dirty laundry everywhere and I have no desire to do anything.  I don't know if it's the weather or what but I just can't seem to get motivated to do anything anymore.

I've got to get back on track because almost none of my clothes fit.  I was wearing a 14/16 at my lowest this time last year and now I'm back up to 18/20's.  I hate it and I hate feeling this way but I just don't know what to do to get out of the rut.

I bought a bunch of healthy food for the next couple weeks and I'm hoping that if I can get my food under control I will also feel better and that will help!  We'll see what happens so check back soon for more updates.  I WI on Monday and I'm sure I've gained again with all the crap I've eaten in the last 3 days.  The first half of the week was great but Thursday, I just quit counting and things got real ugly!

First Workout

I did my first workout in the last 2 months and it wasn't too bad.  The first 5 minutes were rough because my legs were so stiff and tight...my knees especially.  Once I got moving, it wasn't too bad.  Going to try to walk today at lunch for about 35-40 minutes and maybe do a short workout tonight when I get home if I have time.

I didn't want to get up this morning but I'm glad I did.  I always feel better after a workout but it's sometimes hard to get up and get moving in the first place.

Weigh In 10/12/09

I gained 2.3 lbs this week with a new starting weight of 231.9 lbs.  Not happy with that weight and I am starting over right now.

Learning a lesson from the past

I just printed all my weight loss blogs from MySpace from Oct 2007-present.  I'm going to spend some time reviewing what I was doing when I was losing weight and see if I can emulate that going forward.  Hope there is something miraculous in those past blogs that will help me out here.

Weigh In 10/05/09

I've not been faithful to any sort of plan the last several weeks and the scale is proof of that.  In the last year I have gained back 1/2 of the weight that I lost in the first year of my journey on Weight Watchers.  Now that my sisters wedding is over, I hope I can get back to a normal eating plan and get back to working out now that I'm not sick anymore!

Current weight is...229.6!

I must get back on track immediately so I can lose the rest of this weight and get to goal.

Still Sick

I still haven't worked out, it's probably been almost 2 months now.  Still not feeling well enough to get in the extra exertion of a real work out and just when I think I can get in a walk, something happens and that gets cancelled too.  I feel like I spend all my spare time cleaning the house and it's not even that big.  It's just a never ending battle to keep it relatively clean...and then there's the homework! Don't even get me started on how long that takes.  Even 1 paper is an hour or 2 process because he is so obnoxious about it.  Will he ever grow out of this phase and just do his stinking homework?  Let's hope so!
