Doing this for ME!

So last week I weighed on Friday and weighed 203.6 I think. I was just starting too so I figured I would weigh again after this weekend. This morning I weighed 203.2! It's up just a smudge but it's okay. I had an okay week last week and this weekend it was so hot I didnt feel like eating and we all know not eating is worse than over eating. So I thought that was pretty good. So I'm making it my goal this week to do better and get back on the eating train. Today I have done good so far. I've had my morning shake, lunch, snack, and I am soon to eat supper. I'm working at Ingles tonight so not sure what supper will be but I will figure it out. Last night I only had 1 little piece of pizza. I just didn't feel like eating. So here's to a great week!!!

So yesterday not all my meals went as planned but I still think I did good. I had a piece of cake instead of ritz crackers at lunch because a coworker brought in wedding cake. But I didn't eat but a small piece. So today...... Breakfast: Atkins shake Snack: Atkins bar and water Lunch: 2 hotdogs (Dont judge thats all I had LOL), applesauce, water, yogurt, and 12 doritios Snack- Not sure probably some cheese its Supper- hopefully cube steak Deer, green beans, mac and cheese, and mashed potatoes but I am going to watch my portion size!!!

Hello all! I was stoked after weigh in this week but I forgot to add that IF you go from when I started this whole thing like 2 years ago I am still up 4.3 lbs. I started using my fitbit and trying to watch what I was eating almost 2 years ago at 197.9 So my goal this week is to get back BELOW 197.9! I think if I really pay attention I can do it or at least get close to it. Goal for the week- to lose 4.3 lbs Weigh in- Friday May 18th So since we are going out of town Friday I am going to weigh in first thing Friday morning before I go away. So I don't have very many days to get all this accomplished so as long as I get below 200 AGAIN I will be super excited. I can also start working out a little this week but I still won't have a lot of time with work, packing, and doctors appointments. Meals today: Breakfast- Atkins shake Snack- I have 2 atkins bars so I will eat one and then eat another later for snack Lunch- Applesauce, cheese cubes, a hamburger (From lunch yester...

Happy Saturday!!!! Weigh in Day and boy was I dreading it after how I ate yesterday. So let me backtrack a little and tell you how yesterday went. My 4 year old had PreK registration and so I had a sausage biscuit from McDees for breakfast after the meeting. I didn’t get a  mid morning snack since it was almost 930 before I ate. Lunch- I had to take my oldest child to the DR so it was 215 before I ate and I once again had to eat out and had McDonalds. The good news is I didnt eat as much as I normally would have. I had a cheeseburger plain, med fries, and tea. Supper- I really wanted tacos but I had japanese. CARB HEAVEN LOL! But I love me some chicken and rice. I did have water to drink. Saturday: I weighed in this morning at 202.2!!!! I was so super excited. I couldnt believe it almost 8 lbs. 7.8 lbs holy cow!!!! And I did eat sweets and stuff this week so its working and when I get to start working out hopefully it will come off too. Breakfast- My atkins shake YU...

Well I was doing so good and then one of the other teachers brought in doughnuts for us all and I didn't want to be rude so I told her sure I would eat one. So for breakfast I had my Atkins shake and a doughnut. Snack: Atkins bar Caramel double chocolate crunch. MMMM this thing was so DELICIOUS!!!! Lunch: 2 hamburgers with cheese (No buns) as a protein, yogurt, water, cheese cubes colby jack, and possible 8 ritz crackers today. snack: cheese its....approximately 15-20 of them. they seem really small so we shall see. Supper: I have to work tonight so I am torn on what to have. It has to be something I can cook kinda fast but I want to make it kinda healthy. So I need good suggestions. I really want tacos but if I get the meat and cheese and then use tortilla chips instead of shells is that really all that bad? Thank you all for reading my post. I am hoping to weigh either tomorrow am or Saturday. I know I weighed last week on Sunday but I really need to get out of that ...

May 9th Meals: Well I forgot to put up my spaghetti from supper last night and the only thing I had for lunch was pizza so don't judge me! I got online and it said for my weight, age, height, etc I should be eating 1355 calories a day. I am hoping next week to start counting calories also but for this week starting out slow. So here goes my meal plans for today. Breakfast- Adkins shake (Yesterday I almost drunk it all but started feeling sick towards the end so I threw away the last little bit but today I drank it all!) Even my 6th grade class wanted to drink it LOL! Snack- Adkins bar since I only ate half yesterday just to cure the craving for food I am eating the other half today. It is the Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar. And we were out of water so I am drinking a small amount of sweet tea to wash it down with. Lunch- Colby jack cheese cubes (4), yogurt Strawberry, 8 ritz crackers, and my personal pepperoni pizza. Water to drink.....at least 16 ozs. Snack- Not sure yet ho...

Tuesday May 8th First and foremost I want to say Happy Birthday to sweet Hudson!!! I can't believe you are 9! 2nd I want to say how much I miss my daddy. Today he has been gone 14 years......that is so crazy to think about. Not a day goes by that I don't wonder if he would be proud of the woman I grew up to be. Addison is actually named after him for those of you who don't know that. His name was Lewis Wayne and her name is Layne; using both of his names to make hers. 3rd- What I plan to have for meals. Breakfast- Adkins shake Snack- Atkins bar Lunch- Peanut butter sandwich but only on 1 piece of bread, cheese its, water, yogurt, and about 3 ritz crackers with just a piece of cheese. Supper- Spaghetti I will update you later tonight on how much I actually eat and how much exercise I get! Gonna make it my goal to exercise on my planning period.

Monday May 7th Breakfast: It was a long night with a coughing child so I just snacked on some cheese its for breakfast. I know not the best choice but it could be worse! Lunch: 2 hotdogs (no buns), cheese its (small handful), yogurt, 20ozs water , and a coworker gave me cake but I only ate a small piece Snack: Banana Supper: PB & J, Cheese cubes, Water 20-24ozs, chex mix with peanuts My goal today is to eat more snacks and for today I am drinking a breakfast shake!

I just made this blog and this is where I need to hold myself accountable. My journey when I started I only wanted to lose about 20 pounds. I am not super hefty by no means but I have baby fat and some extra chunks I wanted gone. So I was doing so good for awhile and then life got the best of me. I started my Fitbit and Weight watchers journey August 29th 2016 and weighed 197.9. According to fitbit I was 31% body fat. Now I am tall and it wants me to weigh like 140s or so and that will not happen BUT my goal was to be down to 180 and I was hoping I maybe could get down to 175 if I tried hard enough. I worked really hard watching what I was eating for a few months and done really well. Last May I was down to 187....which wasn't a lot but it was something. I fell off the bandwagon and got back up to where I was before. In Feb I was back up to 199 but decided I was GOING to do this for myself. I had to quit worrying about everyone else and worry about me also. Everytime I steppe...
