Hello to all my friends who are reading this! I'm still here, I cannot believe it has been over a month since my last blog. I started writing twice and the lovely computer/internet/something connection kicked me off and each time I had been at the end of a very long blog...so I just gave up for awhile. I was also stressing myself out about my blogs...I wanted to be pithy, I wanted to be witty, I wanted to be fabulous and I had not one fabulous thought worth writing about. And then life took over...and you know the rest.
But...I'm back! And happy to report that I am 13 1/2 pounds and 1 size less! I decided to weigh in a day early so I could get back on my blog bandwagon! Last night I watched the movie Julie/Julia and it got my blogging fingers twitching and I realized how happy I was when I was blogging, so it was high time to start back.
On the food front....I will be completely honest with you...I have NOT behaved 100%. And I will also be completely honest with you, the times I don't behave are a certain time of the month, if you know what I mean. So, when those times have arose, I have treated myself to small portions of things I love (i.e., chocolate, specialty coffee, etc.) and I really believe it is okay to do that. Once I changed my mindset back in the summer, I really don't crave things like crazy too often, but when I do, I let myself have something in moderation and then I find out I don't really want that much, just a taste. And then I'm right back on the eating healthy vibe. I am not saying that works for everyone or that it is a good method but it does work for me.
Most of my daily meals over the last month have been:
whole wheat bagel with fat free cream cheese
breakfast bar
coffee or diet coke for caffeine
low fat wrap with rice cakes or low fat chips
fat free pudding/jello
grapes, strawberries
smart ones frozen meal
water or unsweetened tea
For the most part this is what I'm eating...mix it up, add and take away some things but this is my daily intake. Where have I failed? EXERCISE!
On the exercise front I have failed exponentially in the last month. I have not "treadmilled" or done my workout and I'm feeling it. I'm still dropping the pounds but I'm not as energetic and the aforementioned time of the month is a monster without exercise. So, my goal for the next week is to get back on my exercise program no matter what.
So, that is my catch up blog. I hope to not have another month long absence. Life is about to be a little busier and crazy for me and my house, but I'm determined to stay on track! Because to take care of those I love more than anything, I need to be in tip top shape! :)
Have a great Sunday everyone! Thank you for being my friends and reading my thoughts!
xoxo
No More "Waist"ing Time
The journey of 100 pounds begins with one step...away from the table and onto the treadmill!

Gallbladder a GO-GO!
So, I got a message in my email inbox yesterday from the "secure messaging center" of my doctor's office. It is strictly to relay information in letter form from the doctor to replace or go with the letters they send to your home regarding lab work.
After all the hoopla of this scan he sent me for, the radioactive test conducted in the nuclear medicine department of the hospital, he was "pleased" to inform me that my gallstone did not appear to be bothering my gallbladder and my gallbladder is functioning correctly which is good news. So, unless I have an actual attack, I'm good to go. My gallbladder's a go-go! Yippie!
Don't get me wrong...I'm THRILLED that everything is normal and functioning correctly!! THRILLED!! I didn't want surgery now, I don't want surgery ever, really...but, I would like an explanation for how I can eat, for example, crackers, low fat cheese, and grapes, and within 15 minutes feel like the right side of my body under my rib cage is going to collapse on itself. If it is not my gallbladder or gallstone...what else could it be?
The good news is, the more successful I am at this eating plan of no-fat/low-fat, the better the chance that this pain and icky feeling will go away.
I'm just happy for the good news and will keep doing what I am doing!!
In other news, for the first time in my life I am feeling ab muscles I never knew I had. I am working out to three different programs now and the one I did yesterday used more muscles than I think I have ever used. YIKES!! My stomach and sides are actually screaming at me when I move around today. They are yelling at me things like "WHAT THE HELL?" "YOU HAVEN'T USED US IN HOW LONG? AND NOW YOU EXPECT US TO DO WHAT?" "WOMAN, YOU CRAZY!" Things like that! Oh, and my arms...hahaha, my arms are just laughing at me. I was opening up a bunch of mail today and even my thumbs hurt. I ask you, how out of shape do you have to be that after one workout, you can't even open mail? Oh, my friends, I have my work cut out for me...seriously!
I might end up crawling and limping through this journey of weight loss, but I'm definitely going to make it!!

TWO and HALF POUNDS!
Quick side note to yesterday's blog...
I got up this morning still feeling a little defeated from my weigh-in yesterday morning...so I decided to weigh myself again, first thing and the scale shows a 2.5 pound weight loss. Now, I don't think I actually lost that in one day, but to see an 8 1/2 TOTAL weight loss starring back at me was beautiful!
Whether it was water weight or the infamous roast beef sandwhich, I don't know...all I know is that is what I like to see!
Now, to keep myself from going crazy I am not going to weigh myself again until next Monday...it is quite easy to become obsessed with it and I don't want to become obsessed with it.
I am now going to eat my yogurt, whole weat bagel with fat free cream cheese, water and my coffee in blissful exuberance before I start my morning workout. It's a new one, so I'll let you know how it goes!
Thanks again for reading!

It's a push!
No weight loss...no weight gain...
On one hand, I'm glad I didn't gain anything because I would feel completely defeated. But on the other hand, the hand that wanted to lose at least two more pounds, on that hand I'm bummed out. I haven't blogged all week because I honestly couldn't think of anything to write about. I've been eating the same thing, I've been on my treadmill...not everyday like I should, which is what I am attributing to the no weight loss, but everything is the same...oh wait, that is not true. I will be honest, I cheated this week.
Maybe that is why I didn't blog, the shame was too much!:) Actually, no it wasn't...I didn't care, I wanted this item of food so much I did not care at all about the amount of fat, the calories, the carbs the "damage" to my journey...I just wanted it. It was a craving like no other, a craving very much like when you are pregnant. You know the story, you see a commercial on TV and your craving hits...you try to figure out what to eat but nothing will satisfy you until you get that one "bad" thing you want so much. My craving? A certain fast food roast beef sandwhich! Ahhhh, just writing that now I can taste how wonderful it was. It was so good, there are no words to describe it. I didn't care what the scale would say, or how much I would have to exercise to counteract what that glorious sandwhich would do to me. I WANTED that sandwhich!!
Well, apparently I did care because the next morning I was riddled with guilt and I got on the scale just to see what that little trip off the wagon did to me. Now, I know I'm not supposed to weigh everyday because that will make me crazy, but I did it and it said I had gained TWO pounds...literally...OVERNIGHT!
How did that happen? Was it the fat, the salt, the carbs, water retention? I don't know which, but I did not stray from the diet again and I drank as much water as I could and now my weight is back to where it was last Monday. I don't want to be obsessed about the actual number, but it is hard when you are working so hard for an outcome...you really want to know if what you are doing is making a difference.
Anyway, that little detour down crazy weight lane aside, I have been feeling better with what I am eating and am finding myself, everyday, getting more control over my appetite. WOO-HOO! That is half the battle right there, let me tell you!
Oh, and I had a scan today for my gallbladder, so hopefully in a couple of days I will find out the results of just how well my gallbladder and liver are functioning. And of all the medical stuff I've ever done, I have to say this test was the worst one. An HOUR and a HALF on a table with an IV running and having to stay completely still. They inject a solution that simulates bile and then one that simulates fat to watch your gallbladder does. Now, MOST people only have a bloated feeling when they inject the "fat", but as most of you know...I'm on the "special" side and clearly a bit more messed up than most people, so of course I'm laying there, listening to my music and BAM...PAIN in the gallbladder area. Grrr, and all I can think about is how I did this to myself.
I ate poorly, got overweight, have a fatty liver from high cholesterol which gave me the gallstone which is now causing me pain when I eat...why did I let this happen? BUT, I'm not dwelling on the negative and I am going to keep plugging away positively on my little journey to lose this weight and get healthier!!!
So, until next time...I'm off to eat my yummy grilled chicken salad that I get tonight because I won a bet!:) Yum, yum, yum!!
Happy Monday everybody!

Monday, Monday...
OFFICIAL WEIGH IN DOWN!!
TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS: 6 POUNDS!!
Woo-to-tha-hoo!!! Happy dance, doing the happy dance! It gives me such grand satisfaction to put myself on that scale on Monday and see the difference from the week before. I do not know what to equate that too, but it is fabulous and extraordinary. I can almost see myself 6 or 8 sizes smaller, 100 pounds lighter, enjoying shopping again because I don't cringe at the pain that is me trying to find clothes that look good. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
I'm just going to breathe in all the beautifulness that is being 6 pounds lighter. The fact that I have set a goal and stuck to it. The fact that I am re-establishing the willpower I lost about a year and a half ago. 6 pounds is beautiful, it is gorgeous, it is worthy of singing and dancing and all that is good! If you could see me know, you would see me jumping up and down and high-five-ing the crap out of myself. Six pounds might not be much to some people, but to me it is the access ramp to the highway that will lead to 100 pounds OFF my body!
How did I celebrate today, you ask? Well, you might not have asked, but I will be happy to tell you anyway. I celebrated with whole wheat bagels and coffee this morning, and bar-b-que chicken salad and water for lunch...all at my friend's house. Then for dinner it was GIRL'S night out! We went to a mexican restaurant and I had a very good CHICKEN (not beef) salad with light dressing...and I did have a margarita...that was my celebration to myself. I know they have calories in them, and I planned on not having any drinks, but I am finding if I deprive myself of everything I enjoy I am more apt to want to cheat, hence the margarita. And it was yummy!
Something is happening when I eat most anything with any amount, even small amounts, of fat. I'm thinking it is because of the gallbladder or gallstone. I am having a test done to check it all out. I wish, wish, wish I had taken control and started this process much sooner, but now is better than never so I can't look back and can only keep doing what I'm doing.
But, I am not going to get bogged down in any negative, I'm only going to keep dancing around about my 6 pounds!! YAY!!

Not a moment too soon!
I'm BAAACK!
Well, I would love to be able to tell you I stuck to my guns and ate EVERYTHING I was supposed to the entire week I was on vacation. I would love to tell you that I exercised like I planned to and I drank water instead of anything else and I made sure I did not take in any extra fats. I would love to tell you this...but, alas...I cannot. I'm more disappointed in myself than I thought I would be. Mostly because it is back to real life and I have to own up to my choices. So, I decided to put on here all the bad stuff I had, so I can come clean!
I was doing really well for the first three days, like I said in my last blog. I stuck with my wraps, salads and healthy snacks, water and green tea. Then came Tuesday...oh, toxic Tuesday! I went to the beach and got stung by my first jellyfish. What was my first thought after the screaming, throbbing pain, and mind-numbing irritation subsided? "I should treat myself to dessert since I am in so much pain!" You don't even have to tell me how wrong that thought process is...but the pain of the jellyfish, and the sunburn I got overwhelmed me and I ate ice cream...okay, it wasn't just ice cream....it was a blizzard. I can barely hold my head up from the shame weighing it down!:( The center of my entire problem is the justification of eating bad things in emotion situations. I know this, I am working on this, I am fighting this, not just daily, but hourly and what happens when I get stung by that stupid jellyfish? I WANT TO EAT!
After I ate it, I would love to tell you I straightened myself out, but I didn't. I will say I stayed fairly balanced...but not because I have such strong willpower, it is because I really didn't feel well when I ate anything, especially anything with fat. Other bad things I ate over the course of the week: 2 pieces of pizza; roast beef and mac & cheese; a few M & Ms, roast beef salad sandwiches and diet coke.
Now, that I have purged my conscience and feel better, I am happy to say I had a salad for dinner tonight. I really and truly believed I would get back from vacation and my drive to lose this weight would be gone. I thought it would be one more thing I would just dismiss as being too hard and that would be it. I am happy to report I do not feel that way! YAY! Coming home renewed my drive even more to FIGHT THE CRAVINGS!! SURGE ONWARD!! WIN THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE!! DENY THE DELECTABLE!!!!(I know, again, dramatic)
It does help that any fat I consume makes me feel very uncomfortable, which has to be from the gallstone, but it helps nonetheless. Am I happy I have given myself a gallstone? NOPE! Am I glad to now have a built-in fat-o-meter instead of my own willpower? ABSOLUTELY NOT! But, I'm going to make the best of it and hope I can keep myself well, especially since the added bonus of indigestion and heartburn and chest pains make scarfing down any yummy rich and fat food an epic impossibility.
I wanted bad stuff all week, stuff I have never even craved before, and now that I am home...all those cravings have gone away. I wonder why that is? Is it because we give ourselves little licenses to go crazy during time away? Whether it is food, alcohol, desserts...calories and fat don't count on vacation, right? (They actually don't count on birthdays, friend's birthdays and celebratory dinners, either, in case you were wondering!) Letting go a little on vacation and special occasions is okay in my mind...my problem was apparently I was living on vacation and constantly celebrating momentous events like...TUESDAY NIGHT!! Hence the extra 100 pounds...but I digress.
The first thing I did when I got home was weigh myself and even though it is not official...it is a total of 5 pound weight loss since my start date. Whew! A little reassurance I did not go completely crazy with treating myself!
Once again, thank you to all my fabulous friends who are reading this and sending me such great words of encouragement. I know I could do all this without a blog...but I wouldn't want to! And I know I could do this without you...scratch that...I COULD NOT do this without you! You all make me feel better every day and reassure me that I can reach my goal and I am grateful to you all beyond words!
Have a blessed Sunday tomorrow everyone!
