Day 41

No Weigh In - No Post

Day 40

Weight: 153.8 (-0.0/day; -0.2/week; -8.6/total)

OK well this is a weird week for sure. I didn't manage to weigh in yesterday or post. I was working 15hrs and just forgot to weigh in before I started eating. I came home and immediately fell asleep. I got up this afternoon, cleaned, showered, weighed (yay), and then pigged out on pizza and wings during the Monday Night Football double header.

In about 3hrs I have to get ready to leave to go to California (Hollywood) for the day. Dave has another delivery to do so we are headed that way. I have slept some and he is sleeping now. Either way, it will be another no weigh-in day and probably a high calorie one too. I figure that come Wednesday I will be back on track and ready to kick these next few pounds to the curb!

Day 38

Weight: 153.8 (+0.6/day; -0.2/week; -8.6/total)

Yo-yo much? I can't really blame anything or anyone but myself here though. As I said before I have been having some problems with staying on track and ultimately, that was the case again yesterday. Someone brought in cookies and muffins and licorice to thank us for what we do everyday (as a 9-11 tribute) so I had 2 cookies and some licorice. Then for lunch I was running late and ended up going to get some sushi which means I have no idea how many points/calories I had for the day but I definitely went over.

Today and tomorrow I am going to try to be good but with that being said, I am also working a LOT of overtime and we know how that goes. Blah. I am just going to try to do the best that I can. *Fingers crossed!*

Day 37

Weight: 153.2 (-1.0/day; -0.8/week; -9.2/total)

See what happens when I am good? OK some of that was due to an upset stomach but even still... Yay! I don't want to go back to the 154's. I want to stay on track and continue losing. I am determined to be my thin-self again. I want to be able to fit in my clothes and feel comfortable in my skin. I am getting there.

Now I'm off to finish getting ready for work since I am running late...

Day 36

Weight: 154.2 (+0.2/day; +0.2/week; -8.2/total)

I'm very disappointed. Not from the gain. Truthfully I am very content with the gain only being 0.2 lbs. It should be more. I am disappointed in myself. I am not sure what happened but over the last 3 days I have somehow lost the big picture about everything. My weight and my finances.

My annoying addictive personality has taken over and my one day of gambling success led to me trying again and losing. Blah. It means that I no longer have the extra money that I was going to have this pay day (tomorrow) that would help me stay in the red during my vacation time. Instead now I am broke before the pay day has even come. Grrrr

As for my weight, I just haven't been in control this week at all. I didn't even want to weigh in at all today. I didn't track my points yesterday either. I just lost my focus. I need to get back on track before my vacation begins on Monday or I am not going to be able to STAY on track during those 10 days off. I have found that going to work actually helps me stay on a schedule that helps me control when, where, and what I eat. (As long as my work days aren't too long. lol)

Day 35

Weight: 154.0 (-0.0/day; -1.0/week; -8.4/total)

I had yet another crazy schedule day and my food choices were poor. I can't even begin to honestly track the points I consumed as a result. Waking up and seeing that I didn't gain today is such a relief! I can't even begin to explain it.

It's crazy how I could have such a motivational moment in this week and then have a few days that just throw it out of whack. I am happy it still registers as a 1 lb loss for the week.

I went out gambling last night and happily won some money. It's just enough to put me back in the black and let me go and get my nails done and a pedicure. I'm going to finish getting dressed and then head to the bank and nail salon. I have to work for 2 hrs tonight as well. I go in at 6pm till 8pm. I plan on finishing my book tonight and starting the next one of the series. Counting today, only 5 days till 10 days off! Yay!
