Can’t Solve Problems With Food

I just read this on the myfitnesspal.com discussion forum: When you try to solve your problems with food, not only do you not solve your problem, you create another problem. It makes total sense! I think I have come to an understanding of emotional eating. I am learning my limitations and doing my best to [...]

155.8 – Yay

I don’t know what’s up, but I am continuing to lose more weight. Not complaining, it’s just that I am really not trying. Just doing what I normally do. 155.8 – that’s another .8 from the last weigh in, for a total of 44.2. Holy Cow! I guess I will keep losing until I settle [...]

156.6 Another Pound Away!

Weighed in this morning! Another pound lost. 156.6! It’s strange I keep losing even though I’m not necessarily trying. It’s gonna be a shock to my ego when I STOP losing though, isn’t it? I need something else to motivate me. A new goal!

Women Food and God

I usually don’t watch Oprah, but her show caught my eye yesterday afternoon. A follow-up of woman who had previously lost 175 pounds only to gain it back again, was one of the show’s subjects. Her words hit me like a ton of bricks: Looking back, Kathrine says her biggest mistake was not losing the [...]

First Bike Ride of the Season

I am so proud of myself! Wow! My DH and I went on our first bike ride of the season (40 minutes trip). I kicked ass! He had a difficult time keeping up, and I wasn’t even going at my peek! I tried to burst a couple of times and it was amazing. Usually, when [...]

161.6 – You’re Kidding, Right?

Well, I guess my obsession with the scale is back, or maybe it never left. LOL. I weighed myself yesterday AM and I was 163.4, up a little from Saturday (162.8). This morning I weighed in, and was shocked to see 161.6 on the scale! I don’t know if it’ll be short lived, but it [...]

Weigh In – 162.8 – Hurray!

Well I did it. I didn’t weigh myself all week! It was a little difficult initially, but as the week progressed, it wasn’t such a big temptation. Some things to mention. I finally got my period yesterday, after a month and a half (pretty sure I am going through some sort of hormonal pre-menopausal thing) [...]

No More Scale

I know I am obsessed with the scale and I must stop weighing myself so much. I am setting a new goal! Only one weigh in every week! I am just making myself crazy especially when I seem to be at another plateau. So today I weighed myself and I was still at 164.4. I [...]

Yoga Revisited

This morning, I woke up and my whole upper body was wonderfully sore! I have been working out every night, and last night I thought there might not be enough time since we went out to eat to the Outback, but I looked at the clock, it was 7pm, and I thought okay, let’s do [...]

163.8 pounds – Thinking About Summer Cheats

Phew! My weight is steady at 163.8 pounds. Got through the weekend, thankfully! I kept seeing food on the TV and all these feelings started. The McDonald’s commercial offering 2 fish fillet sandwiches for $3.33 taunted me. I love fish fillet sandwiches and I could eat two at a time when there was a deal [...]
