Did I mention I love my WW Program?

Seriously, what a huge help it has been for me!
Week 1 has been very successful for me!  I have exercised, weighed and measured, eaten my fruit and veggies, drank my water…  and I lost:
2 KG !!!!!!
 
yes it’s true boys and girls, after 4 weeks of almost nothing, being enlightened by just one week of weight [...]

Enlightenment

So, even after pizza and wine last night, I decided to just be honest with myself, get on the scale this morning and report my weight.  Having lost a pound (500g - ok bit more than an actual pound) in a month brings one to think about what they’ve been doing and why the results [...]

Gargoyle, more coffee!!

Sorry but today I’m definitely drinking coffee.  It probably doesn’t really help, but if it helps in my mind, so be it.

I’m freaking exhausted.  I just got my visit from Auntie Flo.  She didn’t come around for awhile as I had a medical order against her, but all that has been cleared up and now [...]

No money - Shopping Anyway

So last night as I was working out I felt pretty pathetic about my actual workout gear.
I have no sports-bra, which I desperately need, considering the melons that have grown out of my chest.
I have no roomy t-shirts to wear, no sports/workout shirts.
My Nike lycra shorts are about 3 sizes too small, totally stretched out [...]

Hmmph.

That’s my general feeling today.  Monday gets that feeling a lot for some reason.
The weekend:  Actually it was ok +.  Though we went to the Latin festival yesterday and it rained absolute buckets on us so we had to abort that journey fairly quickly.
T wrote us a note and gave it to us on Saturday [...]

Well, crap.

So yesterday wasn’t so great.  I started off all right, but I didn’t have a lot at home to have for lunch so I ordered two small sandwiches at work (we call these “bolletjes” - they are buns, I guess you would call in the states).  I made a mistake and ordered something I don’t [...]

I have an elliptical, and I’m not afraid to use it.

That’s right.
I exercised.  The word itself pains me, but I did it.
I put Linkin Park in the portable CD/DVD player and even kept on going when the battery died.
20 minutes/ 140 cals.
Go me!

The History of her Weight, Part I

I don’t only want this to be a WL blog, I want it to be for everything, especially my adventures of a stepmother.  BUT…  I think it’s important, if ANYONE is going to be interested in moi to give a little history behind the weight thang.
 I’m one of these girls who thought she was fat [...]

Food and Stuff

Today was good again. Except we’ve decided to have pizza.  I know,  I know… I don’t NEED pizza.  I’m tired and no one feels like cooking.
Here’s what I had so far today:
B - Wheatabix bran cereal with:
walnuts
blueberries
strawberries
red berries
bit of flax seed
1 cup of soy milk
L - same as yesterday, roggebrood, light cream cheese, veggies
Snacks: I [...]

Could this really be it?

OK.  I get like this every time I restart.  I feel really good this time though.  This time is different.  This time I’m going to be successful and serious about losing weight, like I was in 1999- 2000.  I lost 28KG then and kept it off for almost 3 years.  When my life went down [...]
