Well isn't that the shit.  I just got done typing out my first fall/winter journal, and because MSN did not allow a WW log to be posted, the whole thing went "poof".  And if was a damn good post too! *lol*
 
August 30, 2006
 
Morning:
Na-da
 
Lunch:
"Salad" consisting of
Grilled chicken
broccoli
onion
mushrooms
green pepper
1 tbsp ranch dressing
1.5 slices of cheese
 
Dinner:
2 eggs
3 slices of bread
4 slices of bacon
2 tbsp of strawberry preserves
2 tbsp of raspberry preserves
*have to love the breakfast dinners*
 
Exercise:  None
Water:  Say about 50-ish oz.

What I was typing out earlier is the fact that another year has come and gone, and here I am ......still fat....still fat.....still fat!  And the fact that I look back on the past year, and all I see is laziness on my part of my life.  I posted in another thread about the funk I have been in, and how I am just hating it.  I have allowed myself to do nothing again, and it makes me want to cry.  This time last year, was when we were bringing g-ma into the  house.  It seems like last month.  I could have been to goal weight right now, if I had just kept trying and trying.  Instead I gave up more than I tried......and it makes me sick just looking back on it.  What a crock of shit I feed to myself.
 
Today I went back on WW.  I am not going to do one of those "this time I am doing it"  posts.  I am just going to go day by day and see where it gets me.
 
I am also getting back to journaling.  It really helped me 2 years ago, and I know it will help me now. 
 
Day #1 done.....onto day #2!

Breakfast:
Nothing
 
Lunch:
A few pieces of lunch meat at work
 
Dinner:
1.5 cups of pasta
1 meatball
3/4 cp of sauce
 
Snack (that I ate because I skipped breakfast and dinner)
2 serving of chips
1/2 cp of pasta salad.
 
H20:  About 40oz??

Well today is going pretty well here.  I had to go into work and open the store today.  Of course I am still having problems with Joe at work, but I have been writing down each and everytime he calls....and what he is saying on the phone.  I need to make it down to the court to file all the PPO paperwork and get this process started.  I also heard from another gal at work that our manager was scared about losing her job over this.  I don't want her to lose her job, but if she would stop catering to this nutcase......we would not have the problems in our work enviroment.
 
This Monday I weighed myself, and I am down 3 lbs!!  Yippee!!  240!  Now to lose about another 7lbs before the wedding, and I will be set.  I have been drinking more water (still not enough) and have been trying to curb the nighttime eating.  All my lunches at work are veggie subs.  I am trying to make better choices with my food.  Small steps here. 
 
I want to get my butt out and walk.  I feel as if I am missing out on all the final summer stuff.  Winter will be here soon!

I would just like to scream and cry right now.  Got on the scale this morning, and saw a 5lb gain.   I know I ate like shit this weekend, but never to the point of a 5lb gain.  Back on the wagon again!  But that means really getting back on the wagon.  I keep thinking about how this year is coming to a end, and i am still in the same damn boat.  I just use excuse and excuse.  This is getting to be a drag.
 
Enough pity party for myself.......I got up today, wanted to exercise and made a excuse.   Pathetic.  But I did come on the boards to get my inspriations for the morning.......got out my journal.  I will make this day count.  I know what I have to do........just getting my ass to do it, take a big push.
 
Must remember to journal when I get home and later here on GFHF!

1-Tubby's chicken veggie stir fry sub- 15pts
 
Dinner:
Noodles-5.5pts
Chicken soup - 8pts.
 
Total 34.5pts

Well I blew today.  Until I wrote down this journal, I did not realize that my lunch was that much in points.  Geez, and I thought I was doing well today.  The only good part is that it is early in the week, and I still have flexpoints to use.  So 6.5 of them were used today......leaves me 28.5 flexies for the rest of the week.
 
I am needing to go to the produce store.  I look at what I ate today and it was loaded with bread, and not a hint of fruits/veggies.  Will go to the store this week!!
 
I am glad to be back on the boards.  I hope we start getting a good turnout like in the past.  We used to have tons of fun, but it seems people come and go.  Still wondering what has happend to Cee.  Maybe she will pop in her head soon.
 
Day # 1 done.

Here are my stats for this week: 
Highest weight: 253
Last week: 246
This week: 244
Next weeks goal: 242
 
Well this week threw me for a loop.  I was feeling like crud yesterday and kept wondering why..........my period showed up.  A tad early too.  Now I know why last week my weight had gone up so much. I should probably keep a record of that!
 
Today I am focusing on drining water at work.  I used to drink it there all the time, but now we cannot have any of our drinks in the front area and that is hindering me from chugging it down.  Today I am going to aim for 4 cups of water at work.  I also should bring some advil for the cramps. *lol*
 
Tracking everything today!  And no eating after 8:00pm!!
