Weigh Day...No Loss :(

      I am still at 194lbs today. I am trying to stay positive and look at the bright side. I mean, at least I didn't gain! I know what it was though. I didn't work out last week, maybe one or two days. I also drank waaaaay too much (alcohol) one night this week, so that was my bad too. So, I'm getting back into exercising today. I'm just going to start week three today since I didn't do much of it last week. I lost focus this week and it makes me mad at myself. Its been 7 weeks and I've only lost 12lbs! That is unacceptable! So, this week on the days that I work in the morning, I will workout as soon as I get home. On days that I work at night, I will workout as soon as I wake up. If I don't have work, I will workout in the evenings. I am going to do this!

192

      That is what I saw on the scale this morning! I know its not weigh-day yet, but I was happy. I havn't worked out in three days :(. On Monday evening, I was in awful pain. I think I had a pinched nerve in my back. I couldn't stand up straight, and felt like I could barely breathe! I am better now. I was upset that I had to skip workouts, but I didn't want to do that again! I know I have to get back at it, and I will do so tonight.

      Its been since Monday since I've written and not much is really going on. I've eaten pretty well, aside from having a bunch of Indian food a few days ago, but I think I was still on plan. I've been making a bunch of stenciled t-shirts with freezer paper and fabric paint. I will post pics tonight. Still not much Hindi learning. I really need to jump back into that too.

Finally!!! A Weigh-Day I am HAPPY about!

      So I got on the Wii Fit Plus this morning and it said I am at 194lbs!!! That means two things..

1. I lost 5.5lbs!
2. According to my BMI, I am no longer 'obese', I am now just 'overweight'!

 I want to write more, but it will have to wait until after work.... later!

Grilled is Good :D

So for the past two nights, I've made dinner on the grill. Last night I grilled some onions, zucchini, squash, tomatoes and turkey sausage. Doesn't it look YUMMY!


Tonight's dinner was grilled squash, onions, zucchini-over brown rice, turkey burgers, and bruschetta. I had eaten almost all of my veggies and rice before I remembered to take a pic lol...


      Workout was a little late this evening, but I got it done all the same! Tomorrow I am going to have Indian food with a friend. I will have to make sure that I set aside a good amount of calories, because I LOVE Indian food. (Though not as much as I love a certain Indian! lol)

      Other than all that, today was a pretty uneventful day. Ate pretty well, drank plenty of water, exercised. Not much else going on...

How could I forget?!?!???

      Somehow I forgot to workout yesterday. I know what you may be thinking, 'forgot'? Suuuure ya did. You just didn't want to do it. But that is not the case at all yesterday. I was apparently really distracted yesterday, and was soooo mad at myself when I figured out I had forgotten to workout. I've decided to just stop worrying so much. Instead of skipping it, I am doing yesterday's workout today, today's will be tomorrow and so on till I get to Sunday (my normal day off of workout) which will end up being my Saturday. So basically I won't get a day off from working out this week because I was a dummy and forgot yesterday. I'll still finish on time though, so I'm happy.

      I must be getting near the end of my TOM too. I got on the scale this morning at it said I had lost 3+lbs since yesterday. Must be all the water I was retaining! I'm just glad to see it moving again. I found some older pics from September 14, 2009. I was around 217lbs. I took some on the 4th, so here is the comparison..










Here are the pics of the shirts I was stenciled yesterday...

Anyway.. I'm going to finish up watching this movie and then workout!

29 Work-outs to go...

      ...until I finish the Biggest Loser: Last Chance Workout 6-week program. I noticed yesterday while doing week 2 day 1, that push-ups and squats were becoming much easier. I can't wait to get done with a few more weeks to see how different it is!

Coming up with some stencils to make some cool t-shirts.. I'll post pics with the results soon!

Crazy weekend, but back on track!

      Lets do a little replay of the weekend... Saturday I got up and we walked 2 miles to my Aunt's house. I then drove her car home and worked out for about 20-25 minutes and didn't have time to finish it all because I was going to be late for work if I did. BUT, I don't feel bad because I'm pretty sure I was close to being done anyway, and plus, we had waked 2 miles lol. I did pretty good about eating on Saturday, but I had also started my TOM that afternoon, so that sucked. Then on Sunday, I started off eating well, then ate somethings I probably shouldn't have.. no wait, not probably, I just shouldn't have eaten them at all! I also had some shots and a couple beers. So that was a bad choice as well, but I'm not beating myself up about it.

      So, I get up this morning and weigh first on my regular scale (naked). It says 201.6. That sucked, but I figured, I did eat off plan last night and I am also probably retaining water from both TOM and drinking last night. Then I get on the Wii Fit Plus, and it tells me I weigh 199.5(clothed). I've been trying to do research and find out how accurate the Wii Fit balance board is at measuring weight. I've gotten mixed reviews, but, I've heard a lot saying it is quite accurate and if you are using it on carpet, the foot extensions are a MUST. I use it on carpet that is pretty thin and quite flat, and I do have the extensions on. So, I've decided to start weighing myself on the Wii Fit for my weigh days, as well as everyday when I do the body test and yoga and etc. So today will be recorded as 199.5lbs.

      Work today 1-9. Not really looking forward to it, but I am going to get up shortly and workout before I have to get ready. I'm on Day 7! I'm sticking with this! I HAVE to get rid of this weight. Not only for me, but for my Jaan. He still hasn't told his dad about me. I'm so nervous about that. I don't want him to rush into telling him, but I don't want it to take forever! I also need to get to work on some Hindi learning! I am slacking and need to get on that.

OK, just about workout time.... If anyone actually reads this, have a good day!
