I can’t complain today wasn’t bad at all. Since yesterday I got back to the basics like watching what I am eating and how much of it I am consuming. It actually was a bit tough starting back to the workouts because I felt so out of shape, but I am over it.

Today, I had to pick up my father in law from the hospital in another city about an 1 and 1/2 from where we live. He had a surgery for a herniated disk, so his recovering fine at home this evening. After that my son and I came home and played the Wii “Cars” game which was fun until DH was home from work. We would have been outside, but it was wet and rainy today. Once he was home I did 30 minutes of step aerobics and then I went for a walk/job with my friend for 45 minutes. My body really needed that. I mean REALLY.

What did I eat today? Not perfect, but it is a start. . .

1. breakfast: scrambles egg whites with 1 whole egg, whole wheat toast and green tea
2. meal 2: carrots and turkey with green tea
3. Meal 3: subway sub with water
4. dessert: cheesecake
5. late night snacks (I am trying and will get better) but. . grapes, two 100 calorie dorritos packs, another slice of cake. I know!! I KNOW!!

I know my late night snacks were not the best choices, but I am logging this so I can figure out my problems areas. (However, I know what the problem is, “late night eating”. So, basically I am taking each day at a time, so that I do not stress myself out too much. The great thing about today is that my body is finally releasing some of the water weight. Yey!! I was feeling thick!! Thick like Stay Puff Marshmallow Man. hee hee

Moment of truth . . So, where is my weight? Okay. . . . I am at 177lbs! It is crazy how I can gain 10lbs in a months time with all of my stress I was going through mid July and Early August. But Wow!! I realized it was getting out of control and I can not let life get in the way of my health. I worked too hard to get at the weight I love and I will NEVER go back to that unhappy 230lbs woman ever again. So, I said it and now I WILL work at it like I said earlier. I am working on getting back to 160lbs, but I am going to take each pound at a time. Well, I better get to bed. Another thing I am working on is getting more sleep. I would stay up until 1:00am and get up at 7:00 and I can not do that anymore. When I am not rested my body and mind do not perform well. So, with that said. Good night to all and I will chat later!!

Just for Inspiration to keep strong
