Vacation in 3...2...1...
You know what it means when a Fitblr hasn’t updated in a while…yep, they fell off the wagon.  I totally messed up my goal of being 245 for our trip to Montreal. Last week was terrible.  It was shark week, and it hit me hard.  I was bad, real bad, for a string of about four days…Saturday forced me back on the straight and narrow because I was with my husband all day, with no...

SW: 324 LW: 250.8 CW: 248.6 Change: -2.2 It’s about time!  I am pretty happy with this weigh in, considering I had a couple of off days.  If I had been super duper good all week, I think it would have been a little more, but there you are. I am finally at a new low, which is wonderful.  I hit 250 last December but then went crazy over the holidays and have been trying to get back down...

Yesterday ended with a definate mark in the plus column - good eating and two workout sessions.  Today is on track to be the same - we rode our bikes this morning and hiking is on the agenda tonight (we didn’t hike last night, but did a second bike ride instead.) I plan on tomorrow being more of the same, but I am afraid to hope for anything signifcant on the scale Saturday.  Worst case...

Well we’re halfway through the week, and what a week it’s been so far in the Land of My Diet.  As mentioned previously, the weekend pretty much sucked for my eating.  Monday I was awesome, and I had two workouts - a bike ride in the morning and the Do Life 5K in the evening.  I’m still sore from that, btw - I thought I was kind of in shape for the walking/running but obviously my...

It's 4:20 on Monday...
Perfect time for some…string cheese? Yep. True to my word I’m switching up my snacks and cutting out the fruit for a bit.  Instead of my apple with pB2 I’ve just got some string cheese.  This morning I had just plain cottage cheese with no fruit - which was not nearly as good. :-( I wasn’t a very good dieter this weekend.  I got some good bike riding in but the eating...

SW: 324 LW: 250.8 CW: 250.8 Change: 0.0 I. AM. VERY. DISAPPOINTED. Dude…it’s not like I’m 170 trying to get to 150.  I weigh 250 damn pounds.  And I have been working very hard, not half-assing it.  I haven’t been absolutely perfect, but it should not be this hard for a 250 pound person to lose weight.  I’ve been eating 1,400-1,600 calories, working out for at...

Friday
I am so ready for 3 o clock (which is when I get off on Fridays.)  There is a glorious nap in my future. I had a bit of a rough morning.  I slept in about 20 minutes longer than I should have before getting up for a workout.  Even when I managed to drag myself out of bed I wasn’t really feeling it, so I just walked my route today, no running, and then I skipped my circuit training when...

Not Monday
Back at work again after the long weekend.  It was kind of eventful.  Saturday morning we had planned a long bike ride, but woke up to one of our dogs having bloody diarehhea.  We took her to the vet, and she’s fine thankfully, but we never did get any riding done that day.  And my one cheat meal turned into a whole cheat day. Sunday we did a three hour bike ride, and eating was pretty much...

The Score - Saturday morning : 2  Me: 0 Missed my goal (of being under 250) by a pound…and woke up to bloody doggie diarehhea on the carpet.  SW:  324 LW:  252.2 CW:  250.8 Change: -1.4 So yeah, I didn’t make my goal of being at least 249.8 today.  I know 1.4 is nothing to sneeze at, I’ll take it.  In the back of my mind I wonder if my eating yesterday sabotaged my...
