I have no motivation. I was down to 2 pounds away from my goal, now I am back right up where I started this 10 weeks ago. I just want to eat what I want to eat! and yeah, that is what I have been doing and it shows. But I love Ice Cream, and Chocolate and Peanut Butter and Oreo’s !
Summer is winding down; this IS the last week and school starts next Monday. I go back to my 5 AM wake up time, get back to bed early again and I should get back to eating better again. But until then, sorry to say, I am going to have more Ice Cream tonight. so there !

Yes, I am here and I am trying so hard to get back on track! We went camping this past weekend, and I always eat way too much when were are camping. Plus, the bad news is that I have gained back every pound I have lost since we started this. Kinda funny actually and I do tend to Roller Coaster a lot, so I know this and I am not really depressed. I am okay with it, know what I have to do to get back, and I will do it. . . okay, maybe in a few days, ha !

Well I am off to a slow start this morning as its already past 13:00 and I am just now starting to blog. ugh. I hate having to actually work at work !
Anyways, this week and the past week, has been a bit tough. I was tired of eating like a Rabbit, so splurged and had too much meat and pastries. I knew that I would gain, and I knew what I was doing, so it is not a surprize. I will get back on track and to eating like a small rodent again soon.
Congrats to all the Looser tho, you did great ! ! !

Wow our group is doing so good ! For me, summer is thee hardest time of the year to loose. I want to eat all the summer BBQ foods, cakes, potato salads, burgers and yummy stuff like that. I have found out tho, that it IS helping not having a boyfriend around this summer; no temping dinner parties and booze. Being just me alone, and focusing on just me, is helping. We can do it! Wee Hee !

Wow. The Weather Widget on my sidebar says it is 101 degrees. Yupe, it is hot today. We just got back from our walk to the store for Milk and Bread. I just hate driving and waisting gas for just a few needed items, so my son and I walked. I am glad we did. We got a good workout because we had to really hustle home so the milk would not get warm.
I am having a hard few days off eating wise. I stood on the scale and it is up about a pound again. When I am not at work I tend to eat too much. This time however, I have been eating good foods; Plums, Cherry’s and Grapes. I guess if I eat too much of those sweet fruits, it still adds up. I make sure I get all my daily vitamins, so I don’t think I need any diet pills, but I have got to stop munching everytime I go in the kitchen ! I am drinking lots of water, as not to get dehydrated in this weather, but I need to stay active too! Sunday we hope to walk to the Movies again which is a 3 mile round trip walk, mostly uphill. I just have like 5 pounds to loose; why is the last 5 the worst?!

Just a really quick note to post our results for this week. I did not do that great, it was a hard week. This week is lookin’ better already and its only Tuesdays. Congrats to all the loosers

You go girl! Welcome new member Tina with a 1 pound loss! Total : 11.3 LOSS WOOT!!

Okay this has to be just TOO COOL !
Plus its free to sign up! and Nope this is not a paid post btw, I was just surfin’ around trying to find a Free WebSite to count my calories cuz my Weight Watchers expires in a week and I found this one. The neat thing is that the site will provide a code you can stick it in your blog! So, in case anyone cares, this is my Menu Plan for today. Excluding dinner, cuz I dont know what I am going to have yet!

I got to work this morning and had an interesting converstation w/my cubbie mate. We somehow got on the topic of eating out at fast food places and restaurants. I guess he went to a Play w/his 18 year old son and they wanted to do dinner before hand. Which is fine. He asked his son where they should go eat; anyplace, anyplace at all. He choose McDonalds. D’oh! I would have choose something like a famous SteakHouse!
Anyway, this family of 4 kids and mom/dad, eat out, I swear, at least Once A Day. They run out of new places to try so thats why the kid requested McD’s. Needless to say, the Dad is around 80 lbs overweight and the Mom is around 50 lbs overweight, the kids are chubby, but not too bad. Yet.
Other than the health issues, I have no clue how they afford this either! We eat our about once a week; twice a week max, and then one of those times is Subway.
Like our Fitness Lady said yesterday at our weekly meeting; it is no wonder 1/3 of the US population have some type of cancer. The kind of food we put in our boddies is just terrible ! ! All that proccessed foods w/ingredients I cannot even pronounce, should not be eaten. Yuck ! If I cannot pronounce it, I do not eat it.
Okay, thats not true . . . I have Diet Coke w/Lime one a day. whoops!
