Weigh-In Friday!

Friday has finally arrived and in fact is almost over.   This week has been NUTS but my eating has been bang on.  My exercise, well I made it to the gym 1 day.  I'll strive for 3 next week!  My weight is down 1.3lbs this week.  Bringing me down to 261.5lbs.  I am happy with the progress considering I only got to the gym once, which is completely my own fault I have no excuse.  AND that I only started tracking my eating again on Monday.  I was away last weekend and ate everything in site.  I am sure if I had weighed myself on Monday it would have been scary.

One thing I learned this week for sure is that I need to start paying attention to how I feel after I eat certain foods.  I am seeing a pattern that I have to even admit I see.  Anytime, I eat a meal with high dairy content, my stomach is not well afterwards.  Particularly if it is rich, such as a full fat latte, or cheese cake, or even just cream instead of 1% milk in my coffee.  I am going to pay much closer attention to how I feel with I eat dairy and maybe it's time to a break (dare I say permanently) from dairy.  Sigh.  All I know is I need to not feel like crap-o-la after I eat a meal!

On the agenda of this weekend, lots of painting, cleaning, and installing one last section of railing on my deck.  Wish me luck!

Cheers!

Day 2!

So today went really well foodwise.  I ate well within my calorie range and did not eat any of the leftover snacks from the staff meeting.  However, I also picked today to lock myself out of my house and consequently lock my gym stuff in my house....ooops!  Oh well! I still have 5 days left in the week to get in 2 more workouts.  Should be easy.  No more excuses here.  

Hope everyone is having a great week!
Cheers!

Day 1: Back on Track

Well today was day 1 of getting back on track and I have to say I am very pleased with myself.  I tracked all my food using sparkpeople and got to the gym for my Yoga class that I adore.  I feel really good right now, I had forgotten for a minute how good I feel when I don't over eat and when I get off my butt and move!  Here is looking forward to some positive results on Friday! 

Cheers!
