156

ok i think thats official 3lbs in 3 days ok i'm psyched. if only my body was too. its exhauseted and wnats to climb back in bed for the rest of the day. everyone is off at school but me and jake and colin is here today too. he's napping now so hopefully i can get this in completely. weighed myself at about 7 this morn and again at 10. 156 all 6 times. whats funny is i was hoping for 155 again but i ate like crap and knew it so oh well. but then of course i look at how its only been like three freaking days and its got to b too good to be true. so i'm surre i'll b tripping up soon as i really don't want to move much at all today. honestly maybe i should have napped with colin but just wasn't tired yet. now i've been sitting here for a bit catching up on email and facebook i could use a good nap.
i'm usually good energy-wise when i wake up. i am def. a morning person. i can get a lot done by 9am. so when i get to sleep in i'm not always happy because i'm behind on what i wanted to do that day. yeah i'm a little nuts. aren't we all? thats good for me with exercise because at least if i get in a bunch early on maybe i can get in a catnap later on if i'm lucky and don't feel too bad about it. so at a quarter to 11 i've done 30 squats, 100 cruches, 50 jumping jacks, and 8 min tae bo. not too bad i guess. so i can see how i can do sooo much more in a day fitting it in wherever but thinking today i just don't want too. my body is just done. drinking a lot more water lately of course i have to pee a lot more. so when i'm locked in peace and quiet and will do some more squats or crunches or even jumping jakcs before i unlock the door. i think its a good sneaky way to get in a little extra. sure it's not much but its certainly more than i was doing before and every little bit helps.
i've got to start working on eating better. yesterday was pretty crappy. had my toast and choc milk. b4 work had a small bowl of cheerios and more choc milk. at work had an egg bagel and water. and then a piece of chocolate that wasn't even good but i ate it cause i was stressing about driving home in the snow. am glad i had the bagel though because it kept me from eating more chocolate at work. when i got home as i was getting things ready for school and lunches today i ad 2 pieces of cheese and 4 of salami. so of course dinner i wasn't that hungry so i finished off this small bag of fritos with a can of root beer. Healthy!!! game started at 8:30 walked 20 min b4 putting em to bed. walked another 40 before getting all the boys to bed. was very hungry at that point convinced myself not to make popcorn to watch the rest of the game with. no instead i read and finished off the box of russel stover french choc mints my hubby got me for xmas. i love those things but i didn't need to eat like 8 of em in one sitting. yeah so my diet needs lots of work.
i have a friend who sees a nutritionist and they helped her lose a bunch of weight. i don't think i ever could go to one. when i dropped my weight i was very good about trying new things fruits and veggies and all other things that are supposed to be better for you. too bad i just don't like the taste of any of it. or most of it. i have tried eating more veggies ( the ones i like at least) but fruit, forget it. there are very few i like. and don't even get me started on salad. now i've eaten very few salads i have had them, pretty much when i had no choice and they came with the meal. my salad would usually have lots of croutons bacon and cheese with a little lettuce and maybe some tomato thrown in. if it tastes like nothing why the hell am i going to waste my time eating it? so i'd rather not fight with anyone over what i'm supposed to be eating and do it my own way. and be happy eating what i like.
i also dont' want to pay anyone to get me where i want to be. i got me where i didn't want to be. first 205lbs, now 156. i got me into this mess i'm going to do what i need to to get me out. and i'm not wasting my money and diets or programs that i'd have a tough time following. i have the library and all its resources to find all kinds of books magazines and workout dvds to get me where i want to be with the ones i like. i did give in and buy a tae bo set mainly cause it had the workout bands. of course i rarely use them but they are there for when i build myself back up to working out hard almost every day. i do want the biggest loser game but its a game. for fun not just weight loss right so i really don't count that.
i was up early this morning to make sure the boys were up and leaving on time and wound up watching an infomercial for this air step thing. it actually looked pretty good. like something i might use. when i was in high school we did the step aerobics and i even got one, still around here somewhere, though i never used it religiously where it made a difference on my body. anyway it seems like something i'd like. you have to do what you like. if your not liking what your doing(sure its exercise and u won't like it that much at first anyway) you won't do it again and again like you need to with exercise. i actually plan on looking up this air stepper thing online, as they gave the price 14.95 but not the shipping info so i'm sure they'll nail you for that anyway. but just curiousity i don't plan on buying it.
