Still Moving Along (and last week's journal)

I'm a little nervous about cycling off the supplement, next week. I was off it for one afternoon and had a screaming headache that carried into the next morning. Not good. Caffeine is the devil! I will be living on Tylenol, I guess, while the addiction dissipates. I'll be glad to be off of it completely (I'm hoping) by end of October. Goal reached? We'll see.

I miss my hubby, but he doesn't seem to miss me not one iota. Anyway, worked out in the evening, thinking I'd only be on for 25 minutes, went the whole thirty and burned 447 calories. Went to lunch with a friend today and did a very good job of maintaining (aside from the salt). Three supplements today: 7:00am, 11:30 and 5:00pm. Made a huge difference. Will do this until my six weeks are up. [edit this diary entry]

Not sure how to feel about the day, yet. Weird things going on. Nightmares last night, then awake at 4:00am. Ugh! Burned 427 calories on the elliptical this morning.

Worked out again this evening. Watching my WW episode, 50 minutes and burned 723 calories. [edit this diary entry]

I'm doing well, but feeling anxious after all my bounced checks. How did I let that happen? Ugh! I'm so frustrated with myself. In any case, I didn't let it destroy my eating.

Let's Log a Week's Worth at a time

I'm just not keeping up on here as well as I'd like to, so I've decided to post my journal entries in week long increments. Of course, I'm farther behind than a week this time, but I'll get better.

Today's weigh in (even though it's not Saturday) was 182.4 after my workout. Sweet! I'm just at the ten pound mark, which means I'm only five pounds away from my first goal. It's hard, but so worth it. I've got so many clothes just waiting around for me to be a true 10 again. I'm excited to look cute for my Nashville trip, too. All the more enjoyable when you're not painting out of breath from being over weight...especially in that humidity.

Here are the back entries:

Didn't workout today (just didn't get up in the morning). Then, we went and saw Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in the afternoon. By the time the movie was over (it started at 4:15pm), it was nearly 7:00pm. We ate dinner and pretty much went to bed. [edit this diary entry]

Feeling pretty good. Took my coworker to lunch today for being so great to me, earlier this week. We ate at my favorite Thai restaurant. Very healty, but I had to guess on the calories. Also had a coworkers sinful brownie for desert, but I didn't inhale it, as I'm prone to do with such things. Worked out in the evening, burning 711 calories on the ellipitcal (50 minutes). Will have a light dinner. [edit this diary entry]

I\\\'ve opted not to look at the scale numbers for a couple of days, seeing as I\\\'m still dealing with guilt from my binge fest. I\\\'m off to a good start, burning 422 calories for 30 minutes on the elliptical this morning. Hubby wants me to try his P90X, which I may do this week (being a fan of the Beach Body franchise).

So very distressed! The newest member of our family ran away, this morning. We\'ve been searching with no luck at all. I\'ve called the animal shelter and am hoping they will call with good news. I\'m so worried about the little guy. Even without the sup, this morning...I didn\'t want to eat. Too depressed. [edit this diary entry]

Talk about binging. Today and yesterday, I tried my supplement without the aid of caffeine. Obviously a bad idea. Not only did I hae massive headaches, but I ate eveything I saw! I will not do this again. I will keep up with the supplement for the alloted six weeks (as planned) then, ween myself off (with the aid of tylenol, if necessary). I will not blow up another weekend like this again. [edit this diary entry]

Our biannual faculty meeting this week. Today was our day to man a table for our department. Of course, everything was catered and I took a lot of guesses with the amounts for today's meals. I did work out when I got home (41 minutes and burned 600 calories). Saturday's weigh in may not be so great this week. [edit this diary entry]
