Weekly Weigh In - September 29, 2009

When I got up this morning I was excited to get on the scales, but the scales were not to excited to see me. Last week I decided to make a change, and that was not to drink any soda, which I did! I'm so proud of myself that I did not drink any soda, so I really felt I should have had a lost, but nope, I actually have a gain. Of course TOM came to visit yesterday evening, so that could have some reason why I gain, but, I was hoping for a big lost, so even when TOM came to visit, it would still show a lost. I just wanted to sit down and cry, I'm so disappointed. So this weeks goal, I'm pushing my water...If I get thirsty and/or hungry during time that is not time to eat, I will drink water. I got my finger's crossed that next week I WILL have a lost!

This weeks weigh in: 204.6 (gained 0.2 pounds from last week)

Aloha Friday - September 25, 2009

Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link at An Island Life. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:

If you diet and/or exercise,
How Do You Stay Motivated?

My biggest motivator, is having a buddy to diet and/or exercise with.
Knowing I'm not alone really gives me the push I need.

Weekly Weigh In - September 22, 2009

I'm so bummed this week. I had a gain, and this really depresses me. I've been so stressed, I know I shouldn't blame all my weight with stress, though I had more stress this past week than I have in a long time, and yet I gain almost 2 pounds. Though, I have been drinking my soda again. Lately, I've been looking at the mirror, and really hate the way I look, and very disappointing with myself. So my goal this week is, to hopefully not be as stressed and NO SODA!!

This weeks weigh in: 204.4

Weekly Weigh In - September 15. 2009

I'm so bummed out. I thought I've been eating well, of course, I stopped journaling my food intake. I'm going to have to make a journal that I can easily access to. I was using the computer to journal, but I'm not always near the computer when I eat. I need to have something that I can carry with me every where I go. This is my goal this week.

Last week, I didn't write in my weight, it wasn't good news either, I weighed in at 202.8. Guess what, that's this weeks weigh in too!
