oops

Forgot to post last week. I lost 3.2 lbs I think anyway I have lost 12.2 ( its so hard to keep track of the .numbers lol).

Dh and I got out to walk a few times last week. This week not doing so well with the walking I did not make it to the walking track Mon or Tues and couldn't push myself to go around the block so I got the track this morning and did 14 laps then came home and did some hand weight exercises that I got from a prevention magazine If I do them every other day or so It will help tone up the arms.

I go to weigh in tomorrow and think I have gained but if I can not eat too much today I might just have a stay the same week. I will go to the track and burn off some calories before weighing in to hopefully help some as well.

The downfalls of good home cooking

I love pizza and more than anything love homemade pizza well we had pizza twice this week and the first time we had it I did well, I had some veggies and dip before supper so I wouldn't eat as much then that night had two pieces as a snack didn't have the points for the second snack one then second time i didn' have a salad or veggies before hand and ate three slices I didn't have the points for it at all. Needless to say the scales screamed at me today when I went for my way in as I gained 2.4 lbs. I will not let it get to me I'll just make sure I guage better for things like that example we are having spagetti tomorrow and I'll make sure I only have one p iece of garlic bread with the meal and if I plan on having leftovers i'll make sure I save out points.

I am also going to try to add to my exercising I've been doing the walking now and am doing well but I'd like to get started on the toning as well so I'm digging out the dvd for toning and strength that mom gave me from the special k package a while back. The only problem is is that our dvd player is in the shop since the boy broke the door on it. I will have to clear a big enough space in middle daughters room and use her player. Hope fully I can get these exercises in during the day so I don't have to kick her out of her room of course she'd probably want to do it with me and then we'd be fighting for room as her room is not that big lol. Oh well as long as I can get it done I guess it shouldn't matter when or where I do it.

Bursitis and such.

I finally got in to see my doctor this week about the fall I took mid Feb. Well because it took so long to get checked out it has turned into bursitis. The doctor has given me a referral to physiotherapy and I called on Wed my therapist wasn't in but they were to give her the message I forgot to call today to see what was going on so I'll have to call on Monday. I've had such a hard time sleeping that I have started having oatmeal made with warm milk for bedtime as I have heard that both of those help with sleep I have also been wearing my sleep mask which makes it dark in the room so far those have both helped.

I lost half a pound this week. I thought that I would have gained because I don't watch what I eat that closely and I've been eating the easter candy and having coffee too many times and each one is two points. I'm trying to not have as many this week but I have to be careful as I dont want to have a cafeine withdrawal headache.

I must say though that my exercising has been going well I walked for 40 minutes today I usually count laps but got talking and forgot how many I had but it took about 3 minutes for each lap so that is a good amount. I hope to get out tomorrow if its not too bad out. I'll have to take the kids with me so I'm not really planning it but if I can I will I might just do a workout at home and the kids can exercise as well its my stand by pilates one at least its something.

Easter round up.

Well I lost .4 lbs this week. Not too bad what with the extra sweets jumping in my mouth all weekend. I also didn't get any walking in since school was canceled on thursday and no school fri and mon for the holiday when I went in yesterday I did 10 laps forgetting that I should start out slow again and boy am I sore today. I hope I learn one day to smarten up lol.

Ten for Ten.

This weeks marks ten weeks since I went back to ww and I have lost 10 lbs. Not too bad if you ask me lol. I have been doing good walking. I am hoping to start doing exercise videos as well. I'll try with the kids this weekend and make it a bit of fun.

Easter weekend and I've got plans for my points. I'll take my portion of the treats and portion them out deciding how many points I want to use then date them and hide them so I can only eat them on the designated week. I will be having cake and ice cream on Sunday as its ds's birthday that is why I am hiding the easter stuff for later lol.

Went shopping woohoo

We got our income tax back so I got some money for clothes. I went out today and bought 6 or7 new shirts ( fibro fog can't remember how many) anyway I was able to go to walmart and buy them the sizes were either large or extra large normally if I am able to find clothes there they are 1x so I am majorly thrilled and can't wait till I am at goal to see what size I'll need. They had fabulous sales ranging from$2.00-8.00 and some of the 7to8 were new stock so I am wondering if those were regular price if they are I'll be so glad because I loved them all and had a hard time chosing.

I also bought a new pair of sneakers as my old ones started hurting my ankles today its strange because I was fine monday and yesterday. Oh well I'll be great for tomorrow.

While I was heading for the cash I saw some purses (I have been looking since Nov for one) I found one that I loved but needed to get a smaller wallet so found one of them price for each was 9.99 I pushed the cart a little farther and saw an awesome purse with wallet for 14.99 so I got that one and the wallet is small enough that I'll be able to just put it in my pocket when I'm out running about with the kids( I hate having a purse when I'm with the kids I always think I'm gonna set it down to tend to them and forget it).

Oh I forgot to post that I lost one more pound this week its nice seeing the pounds dropping now I've got to get to the toning up thats something I didn't bother with last time and I'm feeling that I really do need to this time since theres been three kids since and you know how that goes lol.

I am going to try to get my weight loss ticker posted over hear so it will update automatically so I won't have to post it every week.

New week. New stuff

I did well with the core plan. I lost 2.4 lbs this week. Brings my total up to 8.8 I hope to get some exercise in this week and make it to 10 lbs for next week. I have switched my day to get weighed in on Thursdays and I'll stay for the meeting as well. They say it easier to take and keep the weight off when you go to meetings.
