The last few days

You probably noticed that for the last few days, I haven't posted.  That's because honestly, since Monday I haven't kept track of what I'm eating...at all.  I've had wicked PMS, and couple that with the sickness my family has been dealing with for over 3 weeks and I was just kinda too tired to care.  I haven't slept well in ages, and now with the kids and Andy up all night coughing, I'm overtired and cranky too.  lol...  With not caring what I eat, of course I've been in stomach agony and having really bad heartburn.  I know I have to eat a certain kind of diet, but I've been letting it go.  But today I'm back, gonna eat clean and light and drink lots of water despite the fact that I have major cramps and really just wanna sleep.  At least yesterday I did walk around the track like 7 times, mostly to burn off stress.  I'd love to do that everyday. 

So be on the lookout for a post tomorrow.  Gotta get back to it...I have a long road ahead of me.

Friday and Saturday, 3/9&10

Friday was a pretty cruddy day.  We were supposed to go in service but because of the girls being really sick, we didn't go.  How we're going to make our hours this month is beyond me.  We didn't go out yesterday either.  Bailey is running a temperature off and on and the way the girls are both coughing, along with Andy, it sounds like we're in a TB ward.

Sunday and Monday

Sorry I forgot to post the last 2 days.  Been kinda hectic.  My chest has been hurting really bad, like gallbladder attack except I don't have one anymore, so I've been trying to keep track of what I eat and if it triggers pain or not.  I can't eat anything fried, I've learned and I've cut down on my second cup of coffee because that seems to hurt too. 

Okay, here are Sunday's numbers:
Eaten: 1616/1650

Saturday, March 3, 2012

I am not even gonna put down what I consumed and burned because I was wayyy off what I was supposed to do and honestly I'm embarassed by it. 

Today I'm drinking LOTS of water and being very careful with my calories. My back is in a lot of pain but I'm going to still try and walk some today.

I'm going to stop weighing in daily and only weigh on Monday and Wednesdays.  I think that'll be better because of how weight fluctuates.  I know I like to weigh daily but I'm having a frustrating time lately with it going all over the place.

Wednesday, February 29, 2012

Burned: 2229/2400
Eaten: 1266/1650
Deficit: 963/750
Weight: 192.9
Water consumed: 47 ounces

Yesterday I had a migraine for most of the afternoon but I met my deficit goal so I'm happy about that.  The weight is coming off slowly but at least it's coming off.

No more hiding...

You can tell when I'm not doing great in my weight loss because I kind of hide for a bit.  But I'm back on track.  I've been really upset about how badly my back is hurting and how I'm just not finding relief which means I had to leave off from doing my Turbo workouts for a bit, which I loved.  I'm not quitting but definitely gotta get where I can even walk without pain before I try kickboxing again.  My workouts have been walking in place for now, until everyone is doing being sick and I can go outside again. Plus we're in for a few days of rain too.  I'm trying to stay more active throughout my day, walking in place while I type at the computer for instance, or doing more housework to burn more calories.

Here are yesterday's results.  You'll notice (those who have read this blog before) that some of my targets are different.  But I'm still at it.  My goal date is: December 28, 2012 and my goal weight is 128.
The first number is my actual number and the second is my target.  (actual/target)

Burned: 2476/2400
Eaten: 1368/1650
Deficit: 1108/750
Weight today: 193.1
Water consumed yesterday: 77/97ounces
Workout: walking in place for 30 minutes

Thanks for following me on this journey.  Any thoughts on vlogs?? :)

Not doing so great...

Okay, so I was gung ho but now I'm not doing so great...but I'm back on track today. 
I revamped my goal to make it by Dec 31st.  That means burning 2550 calories a day, and eating 1800, creating a 750 deficit instead of 1000.  I might burn more...I might eat less but that gives me a good balance to work with.  I'm seriously gonna get to my goal this year...no matter what!

Wednesday, Feb 8

Yesterday was a kind of emotional day for me.  That is really reflected in my eating.  Plus the fact that while we were working outside it was 44degrees, freezing cold and wet, we kept having to take breaks to warm up and during those breaks I would snack.  I'm not proud of yesterday's numbers:

Eaten: 2588/1500
Burned: 2588/2500
Deficit: +17/1000
Workout: 3 hours gardening in the cold

I also didn't drink enough water being so cold but today I'll do better.  A small setback like yesterday isn't gonna keep me down.

I was planning on starting the 5-day inferno but I underestimated how exhausted I'd be and sore after all that yard work.  So this week my workouts are the yardwork because by the time I'm done every muscle hurts. :)

I'm not too awfully sore today, my back does hurt, it hurt all night along with my stomach.  Everything I eat hurts my stomach.  I've been trying to stick to things that are easy to digest but also using beans as protein instead of meat.  I've been drinking 80 oz of water, yesterday I drank 96oz. I'm not gonna give up I'm just going to keep doing what I"m doing because I know eventually I'm going to lose the weight.  It can't hang on forever with a deficit.
