4 lb gain not 10

Ok a little more on a positive note, I am down 6lbs this morning. Whew I do believe I deserved to gain 4lbs not 10. I thought 10 seemed a bit excessive and in realty who weighs themselves at night fully dressed? You really should only do that if you can only attend a weightloss meeting after work and at least on those days you have consumed the lightest meals possible wear you lightest clothes and go to the meeting feeling famished. So what was I thinking? So needless to say I would delete my previous post but I think it might be good for me to go back and read it ever once in awhile. Well here's to the positive thoughts of a home run or at least a base hit!

Strike out :'(

Well I haven't had the best couple weeks because my husband lost his job and I have really been stressed. I tried to hold off my natural response of emotional eating but it got the better of me this last week. For most people if they actually looked at what I ate they wouldn't think it was all that bad but when you have a body like mine weight loves to pile on me. Needless to say the hostess pie, blizzard, my dads wonderful spaghetti and hamburger and fries twice resulted in a 10lb weight gain in 7 days. I did work out 5 times this week, so I guess that's positive but it didn't help me on the scale. I don't know why I punish myself by getting on that thing, I think I will pack it up and put in the back of my storage when we move. Well I was benched but now I'm back in the game. I am going to write everyday this week to be accountable, this will be my outlet for a little while. Thanks to those who are listening I hope my comeback is a quick one hopefully no more strike outs and I refuse to be benched!

Suspended from the game by no fault of my own!

I feel bad I haven't posted anything in awhile. This last month has had is ups and downs, mainly downs. I have struggled with my left hip which has made it hard to work out like I have wanted to. The flu hit me really hard I was sick with it 3 weeks had a 2 week break and then hit me hard for another week. I am in physical therapy for my hip and I am slightly better.
My workout goal the next few weeks is Curves 3x wk and water aerobics/swimming 2x wk and my 6th day will be what ever I decide. I am still proud of my eating goals, I decided at my 13th week of sugar free that I felt strong enough to add 1 sugar treat a month for a reward. I chose a hostess pie and a few small candies. It didn't taste as good as I thought it would so I don't think I will pick that next time. The best thing about it though is that I was able to stop with that and keep on my plan, that was my ultimate goal. Well I was suspended from the game awhile but kept the rules and I'm ready to step up to the plate again!
