Update

Last week I did the following:

Monday: Walked 3 miles
Tuesday: Rest day
Wednesday: Walked 3 miles
Thursday: Jogged 2 miles
Friday:  Rest day
Saturday: Jogged 2 miles 

Weigh in: +38.5

It is becoming much easier to walk/jog more everyday.  My ankles don't hurt nearly as much as they used to, and I jogged almost the entire 2 miles on Saturday.  I think that we only ate out on the weekend this week, but I did eat a whole lot of cookies and ice cream almost everyday.  I think I need to eat more little snacks during the day.  My goal for this week is to make it until Friday without having sugar snacks.  And I'm serious this time. lol.  I am getting a little bit frustrated because I thought that I would be doing much better considering how much activity I have been doing.  I do feel a lot better though, so I should just focus on that.

Happy yet Sad

Weigh in today was a little disheartening.  I have gained a pound.  So I am at +39.5 pounds.  I walked two miles on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.  Hubby and I then both went on a two mile jog on Saturday.  We didn't eat the best though.  We had Burger King on Monday, and Wendys on Tuesday and Friday.  Saturday, we had McDonalds for breakfast and Kentucky Fried Chicken for Lunch/Dinner.  We also ate a lot of butterfinger ice cream.  So yeah, this weeks goal is to only eat out once!  We really can't afford eating out that much anyway.  It just gets so tempting.  I have noticed that I have been twice as hungry these last couple of weeks, and nothing sounds better than a nice juicy burger and fries.  lol.  Anyway, the good news is that I have noticed that my clothes are fitting better.  Even though I haven't been losing the weight like I've wanted, I'm still happy that things aren't as snug.  I'm already off to a good start this week, so I hope I will finally have a week of meeting my goal!!

Another Week Down

So this week I have been so good.  I did my workout video on Tuesday, lifted weights for upper body on Wednesday, walked 2 miles on Thursday, did my workout video on Friday, and walked another two miles on Saturday.  I was also really good about cutting down what I ate, except for Saturday. lol. I was so excited to weigh myself and...I lost 0.4 of a pound....are you serious?!  Anyway, I should probably look at it as losing 1400 calories.  Yeah, that sounds better.  Anyway, I am at + 38.6 pounds.  I'm glad that I am improving, and I'm going to work more on cutting out the sweets this week.

Weekly update

Ok, so I kind of sucked last week. lol.  I was really good with my eating Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, but forget the rest of the week.  Saturday and Sunday were just plain awful as far as sweets go.  :S  I did go for a 3 mile walk on Monday.  However, when I was just a few blocks away from home my foot started hurting pretty bad.  I did not do any further exercise for the rest of the week.  Blah.  I am also feeling so not motivated to do anything.  Arg, oh well.  As far as weigh in, I am at +39.  Yes!  I lost a pound! lol.  I did not meet my 2 pound goal, but considering how bad I was last week, I very happy.
