Putting things into writing....

...makes you realize how bad you're actually eating!

This was a bad weekend for nibbling, but I did actually make it to the gym on Saturday and will be going for a run tonight, as I have to work late.

Baseball season begins....

...I just got the call, and the baseball season has begun. Tuesday night begins a double-header every week of baseball - yipee! More exercise to add to the regime. This week during my call, we discussed accountability - and I'm going to be e-mailing my food log (as we seem to talk about accountability on my part all the time, but now we're doing something about it) to my coach every day. As well, she is going to e-mail me regarding the days I've promised to go to the gym. All in the name of...... 155!!!

It doesn't pay to binge....

So last week was a right off, so much for a Tuesday morning return to the regime! More like a week Tuesday, but now that I'm back on track I'm feeling really good. Exercise hasn't been that great this week, I've been to the gym once and would like to start walking in the morning, now that the weather has finally turned nice.

My binge caused me to go up over 160 pounds again, which irritates me every time I get on the scale. 160 is a big hurdle for me to get over and will be my focus in the next week.

Weekend Binge

So I went away this past weekend for four days to Halifax for our shareholder's weekend - and I ate alot. I have to admit I knew it was going to happen and I really enjoyed myself. But....I was also planning how I was going to return to the new "norm" on Tuesday morning and thought about how much I was going to enjoy it. After having fish and chips for the second time this weekend on Monday, I was already beginning to crave my raw veggies and salad lunches! I started off this morning with my bowl of cereal and then had a balanced lunch - I've been drinking water all day and I actually had a cup of Jasmine Green Tea this moning. Something new I'm incorporating into my diet!! I checked this morning and I gained two pounds while I was away (not bad considering what I ate, but we did a LOT of walking) and this week begins the drive to 155!!

Green Tea & Protein Bars

So I was at Wal-mart last night and finally remembered to buy green tea and protein bars. I'll let you know how I like both in another week after I've tried both!

158.2

This morning I got on the scale and I was 158.2 - let me tell you I'm getting that pedicure and manicure by this weekend. With the beautiful weather this weekend, my toes didn't look that great in sandals!

Tonight is my next spinning class and Wednesday I'm trying a body sculpting class. I'm also getting groceries tonight, with my meal plan in place so I'll know what to cook for the next two weeks.

In addition, I will be adding some working out, at home in the mornings - some push-ups and other exercises to start trimming the "overall" look!

My First Dress Fitting

So I put my wedding dress on for the first time......and it was too big! They had to take it in about 1.5" on either side of my chest and ribs! The ladies in the dress shop were asking what I'd done to lose the weight - and my response was......eat breakfast and exercise!

My dress is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! I told the seamstress that I had five more pounds to loose to my goal. She said I could do that before my June dressing fitting - then none after that!!

I am sooooooo happy!
