Saturday

Saturday, September 11, 2010

Going out for dinner, thought it was going to be a real dinner turns out everyone wants pizza, so pizza it is,
I'll start with a nice big bowl of romaine lettuce and a few slices of cucumber, tomatoes and a few drops of dressing, they have the Paul Newman light kind so not to bad except for the sodium count....and way I should be fine...I'll try and talk them in to at least have a veggie, thin crust, Gary likes the thin crust, and I never eat the fat end of the crust either, eat slow, drink plenty of water.. and talk a lot....I fond if I talk a lot I don't eat as much and lucky I'm not in a hungry mood today.....

I will be over on my sodium today for sure but I'll try and do better tomorrow...


Have a fun Saturday night.

Kitt

Friday

Friday, September 10, 2010

It was a beautiful Friday..Nice sunny warm day, only 83, and I'm loving it..
Got all my shopping done and errand run..
It occurred to me that since I reached my goal weight and then some, I stopped buying myself things as rewards. I still take time for myself but I use to buy CD's perfume, beads and fun things ...so tonight I'm going to make a list again of things I can earn if I reach my goals,...like walking 20 k steps that day, or by passing the cup cakes and cakes at work...or just keeping the weight off and possible loosing a few more pounds....I think it will give me some incentive to keep on track and it's just fun to do nice things for your self.

Tomorrow we are going out to dinner, I need to find out where so I can plan what I will be eating...

Have a healthy week end.
have some fun and learn to think healthy not just weight loss.


Kitt

I think rewards are an important part of weight loss and maintenance. Glad you are bringing it back into your life Report Inappropriate Comment

I am buying as many clothes as I can afford too... which frankly isnt much! I so wish somebody would sponser me a wardrobe spree! I like your idea of new goals to be rewarded for, I know I have felt a little 'lost' without aiming for losing weight. Report Inappropriate Comment

Thanks for the tips on the foot.
I iced it and elevated it last night, I was able to walk for about 30 minutes this morning with no problems..I then rode my stationary bike in case It was more injured than I thought....I have a high threshold for pain and have been told by my doctor to not just go by pain, look for more injury.....but it really is fine, one sore spot, I think the bruise looks way worse than it is...
I will stop running until monday.......
Tomorrow I'm off but have a lot of errands to run ..it's pay day and I still need to pay the car insurance, and I want to go to the farmers market..I want some more cantaloupe before it's too late....

So another healthy day, I am proud of myself, this is the 3rd day this week and I only worked 3 days that cake was brought in ....Tuesday I did have a cupcake but yesterday and today I said no thanks, I thought I really don't need any more special treats....almost everyday is special for one reason or another.... so don't fall in to that trap.....lol

Have a healthy week end.


Kitt..
I'm going to try and post a picture of Gary and Me that was taken a few weks back, I had a lady at work scan it for me so lets see if I can post it here.

It happened again

Wednesday, September 08, 2010

I did a big long post and it's gone....
any way the short and not so sweet of it...I bruised the bottom of my foot this morning running, ouch that thing hurts. it was dark and wet but I still decided to run....not my smartest idea to date....any way I'm going to be limping for a while.....no running for a while...so shoot is all I can say and I have a terrible looking purple foot...
time to get my self in relax mood and elevate this foot, hoping to be able to at least walk tomorrow or ride the bike.

have a healthy Thursday

Kitt

Try typing your info in a word document then pasting it in your blog. That way you have less chance of losing your post. Just a thought. Report Inappropriate Comment

oh Kitt!!! sure hope you take it easy ... and yes elevate that foot --how about icing it too.. hope it will heal quickly for you!! Report Inappropriate Comment

SUGARBABY60 9/9/2010 4:34AM

Perhaps a good old Epsome salts soak will help "draw "out the soreness and bruising It is usually done with 1 cup of Epsome salts and enough very hot water to cover the foot. (this is done AFTER the first 24 hours of injury and using ice.)f Alternate hot and cold. good luck and heal fast. Report Inappropriate Comment

Always treat an injury with respect and lordy don't make it worse. You can do stretches or exercises sitting in a chair. Ice works great Report Inappropriate Comment

SOCKITTOME 9/8/2010 9:33PM

Major owie, Kitt! Ice it, keep it elevated, and be careful the next few days. You might have to take it easy and just rest it. I've had to do that periodically when my knees or other things act up. It's a drag, but sometimes we need to rest and let things heal. That is as healthy as exercising, seriously. The whole big picture is taking care of ourselves, and sometimes that means taking a short exercise break so our bodies can heal from injuries. You asked about the wind up here -- it's still windy. They are getting some rain over the burn area this evening, but likely not enough to help enough as it is supposed to dry up and warm up again starting tomorrow. There was a triathlon scheduled for Boulder on Saturday, and it has been postponed because the air quality is terrible, too much smoke. The folks in charge of Sunday's ride are making a decision tomorrow what to do about the ride. I won't be surprised at all if it's postponed or canceled. Given that there is currently no containment of the fire and there's a health advisory because of the smoke, that would be the smart thing to do. We'll see what they say Thursday.
