Don't do this.

-
So this morning I was not strong. I succumbed to the evil little sugar carb balls from hell that bring me such delight - 

MUNCHKINS.


Satan's handy work right there! So sweet, so easy to devour a whole box without even realizing you've done it! So loaded with calories and carbs! 10 later... just 10!! Caused me to go over fats, carbs and nearly calories! Plus the sugar causes me digestive hell the rest of the day. I don't know why I did it. They're just so good, ahhh!








When I calculated my macros, these are the numbers it gave me to use. I have been staying pretty well under it, especially the calories. I think I could safely do 1200 and probably stay under that! I've went on diets before and could not stay under 1500 so I don't know why that's been easier this time? Maybe because I can eat beef and bacon on this diet? Who knows....

With that confession, I'm going to go out and jog for a while, work in my garden and try to burn off all those awful calories!

 I did it!! I DID IT, I DID IT, I DIIIIIIDDDDD ITTT!!!! Excuse the blurry picture, crappy cell phone mixed with not being able to turn the light on (babies sleeping).  Tomorrow is weigh in but I'm doing it a day early because, well I had a feeling I'd be there. SO excited!!! This is the first time in years I've been under 200lbs!! Really motivates me to keep going!  My reward for this is - SKIPPING CHEAT DAY! Yes, I am done with cheat-day Sunday. We do DQ on Sundays so I may have a mini blizzard but I can eat half and fit that into my macros. Sunday always sets me back, then I'll screw up Monday and it's a vicious cycle so I'm just gonna stick to it. I've lost 25lbs in 11 weeks, so I know I can do another 25 in 3 more months! Although I know the lower I go, the harder it will be. I got this.  So what am I doing? People ask this, it's funny because on some of the facebook boards I'm one of the people asked how they did it, vs being...

More bad than good but...

-
This week has been more bad than good but somehow, I've lost more weight that previous weeks!! Husband filled the house with junk, he's been on vacation. I've had bday parties and playdates to go to. I had cake at the birthday party. We had DQ yesterday for a treat for the kids. We had a long day and no one felt like cooking so we ordered pizza. I wasn't going to eat it but I was starving and just didn't feel like cooking, even just for myself, so I had 3 slices - crust and all! I had a granola bar the other day (it was like 33g carbs). Sonic messed up my drink order and it was most certainly NOT diet. I actually didn't drink much of it, but I had some. I also have only got in 2 days of exercise all week! So this morning I got on that scale expecting to see the worst.... but instead I'm down 3.2lbs!! How did that even happen?! Am I starving my body? Is that why I'm not losing as fast? Should I be eating more? Maybe getting more carbs than 50? I don...

Why didn't I think of that?!

-
Yesterday afternoon I was talking to my oldest son about wanting a treadmill or an elliptical on our patio so while the girls play I could get in a workout. My husband chimes in, "why don't you just go jog around the goat yard?" Wait, what?! Why didn't I think of that?! Of course he's thinking of saving himself $200 but it was a great idea! I've always hated walking/jogging our neighborhoods because of.. neighbors. I feel like I'm being watched and maybe a little judged and it's just not my cup of tea. But out here, no one to watch! No one to judge! And it's a BIG area and if we wanted more we could actually go jog the front acre too! So my son and I had a little jog. He jogged a little, ok, a lot faster than me and he could have probably done 3x the laps I did but we did it! It felt good! We're gonna do it again today and tomorrow. Then add a lap each week. He loves working out so he's really enjoying my desire to exercise. On the foo...
