What a gloomy day. All of this rain and the having to put the clocks back an hour, really has my system all screwed up!!! I am hungry and tired earlier!! It is getting dark before 5 o-clock!! It is now light in the morning when I leave for work, but it sucs in the evening! Also, I am craving lunch an hour before!! Isn't it unreal how your body thrives on routine?
Well I went to the gym last night. I think I may have almost overdone it!! But it was awesome!!! I did 30 minutes on the elliptical on level 11 Cross Training, 20 minutes on the bike on level 10 random and a 42 minute boot camp class. The class is supposed to be cardio kickboxing, but the instructor likes to do a boot camp once a month. This is like an Army boot camp were you do 3 minutes of really high intensity cardio followed by 1 minute of weights / stretching / squats. Not even half way through the class I was kicking my but for doing 50 minutes of cardio previously!!! My legs were like jello!! But I had fun and there was only 3 of us in class because it was Halloween and the class was at 6:45.
My food intake was good yesterday. I ate 21 points. I had one extra point for a Halloween treat…. A mini tootsie roll!!! I almost had two, but I put the second one back in the bag and walked away!
Just a thought about the little things in life…. Trevor and I are always running around crazy in the morning, with no much time to spare!!! This morning was as usual and I had placed my multi-vitamin, which is yellow, and my trusty Prozac (which is yellow and green, on the table beside my bag so I would not forget to take them before I left. Well I kissed my wonderful husband good bye and went to take me pills and there was a green jelly bean beside my pills…. So now I had yellow, yellow and green, and green and a little treat before work!!! At first I thought I was losing my mind, but later in the day I realized, after I talked to Trevor, that in his busy morning he had thought of me and went into the cupboard, opened the bag, an placed a Jelly Bean with my pills to make me smile!! It worked, I am still smiling!! What a Sweetie my Trevor is!
I wanted to shout out a huge congratulations to Paulene!!! You go Girl!!!! I so want that feeling of success again!!! Gosh you inspire me!!! You continue to amaze me with your strength and drive to succeed! You have me so motivated to start my new challenge!
I am off to weigh in….. I will grin and bare it! Hopefully it is not as bad as I think!! I will still be upset with myself, but usually a nasty gain gets me right back on track!!! Plus I love going to meetings, to see all my fellow Weight Watchers. We all have so much in common!!
I am feeling slightly embarrassed because I have been stuck for a while now!!! This is supposed to be about my weight loss!! My weight was not moving at all, no matter what I did, then I got kind of sick of that and now I am back to doing a half assed job of it on the weekend! I have got to get this ball rolling again!
Have a great day!

Happy Halloween!!!
Well I had a fun day yesterday, but eating wise, it what so not good. I saw / felt it coming!!! I ended up having some Pizza Hut and some other goodies. I felt like I could eat and eat and never be satisfied, so I did eat and eat and no I was never satisfied because I feel it today too, but I am trying to fight it!!! I actually woke up early this morning and felt sick because I ate too much!! Why would I do that to my self? I just feel like eating and then eating some more. I actually feel like I am really hungry, but then I eat everything in site and don't feel satisfied!!! I can't be the only one in this world who does this. TOM is on its way with a vengeance!!! It is such a bad excuse, but this is where it starts every time I fall of the healthy wagon!!! It all starts with a bad weekend before TOM and if I don't get it under control, the whole month, if not more, goes to shit! I do so well for a while and then this happens, where I can't seem to get my groove back.
Well I got up this morning, with the PMS / Monday morning blues and took my Prozac, and decided right there and then to stop beating myself up about the weekend and start over today. I soooo don't want to go to weigh in tomorrow, but I will!!! Sometimes life Just happens! I guess it always happens! But I need to go to my meeting! They will help me laugh off the gain!!! Either way, I start my new challenge tomorrow: 2005 Christmas Challenge. My goal is to get below 147 lbs in to virgin fat (fat that has never been lost before!) before Christmas!! Depending on how much I gain (shit!) tomorrow it will be about a pound a week! Actually when I put this journal entry up I will move my Birthday challenge down the page and put up my new challenge!
Anyways I am back on track today and I don't plan on giving into temptation! I am going to the gym and I plan on doing 45 minutes of cardio and then 42 minutes of cardio kickboxing. It just pisses me off so much that I work so hard, by eating well and working out and then PMS and TOM come along and blow it all out of the water and then I have to work even harder…. Blah!!!! But I am picking myself up and dusting myself off and am ready for a good week!
Oh ya, I wanted to congratulate one of my best friends on losing 20 lbs!!! You go girl!! Thanks for the Jelly Beans and wine!!!
Also a congratulations to Phillipa for getting off of that plateau with a 1.9 kg losss!!! You go girl! I need to stay on track, change things up and challenge myself again!!! Thanks for the motivation!!
Well, that is it for today. Have a good one!
