I had a very long post that was eaten by my firefox freezing. I am still somewhat upset. haha.


I did well this week. I also hurt myself and have sidelined myself from any miles for at least 10 days. My foot is already feeling better though and I have done chair aerobics yesterday and hope to get it done tonight as well.

So, despite being at my folks house this week and using all of my WA points already, I managed to make my first goal!!! A loss of 12 lbs total!

We'll see how it goes this week, but I'm essentially very proud of having been on vacation, at my mom's no less, and be reasonably able to have stayed on program.

I'm a terrible blogger too, but now that I'm back will be better!

I am a terrible blogger. My wi this week went well with a 2.8 loss. I will take it. I've done well going to the Y but am dealing with severe knee pain and my left ankle but not the ankle (I know makes no sense) hurts. I think my husband is giving me his appt. on Wed. I need to get them seen. Speak of the devil he is hovering to sit and watch a movie.

To my blogging buddy: I missed you this week and have a package all ready for you! <3

I'm going through some horrible emotional pathways right now which make my road to weight loss an even harder journey. I am an emotional eater. Last night I ordered pizza then proceeded to eat 5 slices. 25 points down the drain. They were not even worth the 25 points. I felt like crap the whole night and knew I was eating it to stuff my feelings.

I woke up this morning knowing I was not going to beat myself up for it. I accounted it and moved on. Someone from the ww boards told me that and I find it such to be almost the most valuable advice I have received to date.

I need to find myself another outlet for my emotional eating. I'd love to be thin enough to just run but that isnt on the table yet and well, I'd love to go even for a walk alone but I am a stay at home Mom and alone time is hard to come by. Today I slipped on my mp3 player and danced in my chair and sang. Sounds silly but it worked. Now I need to learn to try something harder next time. Maybe my 1 mile dance video (which I love btw)

I keep trying to tell myself that a healthy,skinny me will still have emotional days and have to go through hard times and its the choices I make now that will forever shape the future me. I want a healthy me for my girls, so I can live a long time with my husband, so that I can do things with my girls I can't do now.

My blog buddy and I are alike in so many ways, its what makes me feel so close to her. Her and I are on a long road trip but we will make it out stronger and healthier. And in the end we will both sit back and be glad we took this journey.

I continued to struggled today....sort of. I don't get the mood swings.

I changed my weigh in day to today because Monday's are tough for me. I am worried I've screwed up my program (superstitious) by doing that. It's good because I'm down 3 lbs so can say good by 290's. I'm down to 288. That said...I did fantastically this morning with whole wheat toast for breakfast, drinking my water, saying no to coffee and eating my brought lunch rather than going out.

Got to the part and had two and half beers, veggies and fruit then had a handful of doritos, a cookie and a small brownie. No biggie, except that I ate the brownie on impulse. It scared me. I don't want to lose ground.

Blah blah blah...poor me, I know.

I also haven't exercised much this week because I've been working very late. On the positive side, my daily steps have gone up from an average of 2000 to between 4000-6000.

Somebody just tell me one slip does not a complete fall make.

I'm looking for some good links. People on the same journey as we are. So if you happen upon us and would like to have us link you let us know.

It is nice to have people walking with you on new adventures in life and this adventure is a long hard one paved full of rocky roads. Support is hard to find.

WI today-2.6 pounds. After my gain last week I was totally worried today. But I will take my two pounds and say see ya! I didn't exercise much this week either, I've been sick with a chest cold and the only energy I have is being zapped by it.

When I entered my loss on ww it warned me I was losing too much too fast. Seems like it isnt enough fast enough for me though. haha. I think Biggest Loser really makes it hard for us normal folk to lose weight healthy because we see them drop such huge numbers so fast.

I've lost inches everywhere but my arms and waist but face it, I'm still bloated and once that is gone, so will an inch or so. The most exciting part of my wi was realizing I am FIVE pounds away from my first goal. FIVE! No way! I can't wait until I hit that.
