A New Me - Day 2

Thursday, March 07, 2013

Today is Day 2

Yesterday was a bit of a rough start since I couldn't seem to control my eating. I did, however, track everything and was about 500+ calories over the top of my range. UUGGHHH! I always seem to want to eat way more than the calories allow.

I also did not wake up this morning to go to the gym since we were "suppose" to get snow overnight and I thought the gym would not be open but when I woke up at 5:30pm to get ready for work, it was clear. So I'll go to the gym at work and stay there a bit longer to get in some ab work.

Tonight I'm going to go see my friends daughter in her high school play. She is so talented! I can't wait. Last week I told her I would go to dinner afterwards with them but I cancelled that. I've been alcohol free now for 3 nights (tonight is the 4th) and I don't want any temptations with that or with eating bad.

The scale went down 2 pounds from yesterday. I think I must have been retaining some water but it's still up from my lowest so I'm still set on this mission of losing weight.

I ordered the Jillian Michael's Revolution yesterday!!! I can't wait until it comes! Typically I would have said I couldn't afford it but my husband just made a pretty big purchase of $350.00 without even consulting me so I figure the $154.00 for the exercise dvd/program isn't so bad.

There is birthday cake today at the office emoticon
I'm going to try with all my willpower not to eat it. Please don't let it be Red Velvet!!!

Tomorrow is my husbands birthday but since it's Lent, no meat on Friday's, I'm going to make him a really nice lobster tail (or two). He's not a big cake eater so I'll try to figure out something healthier to stick a candle in.

My goal today is to:

emoticon Eat Healthy
emoticon Run 4 miles
emoticon Do an Ab Routine
emoticon And check out some Kettle Ball DVDs on Amazon
emoticon Met my goal of Blogging today!

Tomorrow's goals:
* Get up in the morning and go to the gym - Run
* Eat Right / Pack Lunch & Snacks
* Gym at Lunch for Weights
* Salmon for Dinner
* Blog

This is me at Niagara Falls over the summer last year. I'm so tired of the winter! Spring forward this Sunday! (it's about time!)

    tracking is a great way to see where imporovements can be made.
going over your calories is not the end of the world and at least if theya re tracked you can easily see where improvements will make a difference

  I like how you are keeping track of your food and setting daily goals. I'm impressed that even when you don't quite hit a goal and are mad about it, you aren't deterred from meeting your other goals. Keep that up! It's real.
