I want to take water aerobics!
I finally broke down and bought a scale to monitor the 12 lbs I'm trying to lose. I obsess when I weigh myself but it's the only way I can keep it in check.
Back to eating my House Foods Shirataki and my hemp protein shakes...
Tweaked my back this AM reaching for my mascara, so it's a gym-free kind of week. That's okay, I could probably use some down time. Stupid mascara.
haha just remember you will never see a fat person who only eats fruit and vegis...so if you happen to splurge on fruit big whoop! dont kill yourself over it! Congrats on the good accomplishments though!
I had a negative and a positive within an hour of each other .... I ate 1/2 of a bag of goldfish (my weakness!) .... but instead of just calling it a day and finishing the other half -- I went out for a 40 minute run/jog/walk. and I'm feeling good right now. Just gotta keep going!
Well, the only day I was really bad was Friday - FI and I were too tired to cook so we ended up ordering a pizza...BAD idea, I must say in retrospect.
Other than that I've been pretty good, and keeping track of my calorie intake at The Daily Plate (it's great BTW - especially to find out if you're eating as good as you think you are!).
My biggest obstacle - and always has been - is the whole exercising thing. I just don't like it, despite all my knowledge about how good it is for you. If there's one area in my life where I just can't seem to get motivated and just do it as they say, it's exercising. Eliminate sweets - no problem! No more pasta/pizza/etc - done! But exercising? You've got to be kidding.
The thing is, I don't eat junk food...no hamburgers or french fries, no fried foods, no cookies/cakes/chocolate bars here. I know, many of you are going "WHAT???" but it's true. I can pass up these things with no problem whatsoever. I'd rather have a salad than a hamburger anyway, so it's what I do naturally.
Another part of the problem is I have no income right now, so it's difficult to hire a nutritionist/trainer or join any type of group. Oh well, hopefully soon!
Sorry for the rambling...glad to hear others are doing well!

Thanks to everyone who jumped in with me on the thread I started last week:

More are always welcome! When it comes to shapeup support, the more the merrier for sure
So, how was everyone's weekend?! Mine was pretty good. Fitness highlights:
-Took my first ever water aerobics class Saturday morning (followed by a session with my trainer). In a word? OW! lol I definitely feel it. Water aerobics is definitely a heck of a good workout! I'll be taking it weekly, it was a lot of fun.
-Bought a frozen yogurt maker! If you love frozen yogurt and dont' have one I really, really recommend. I got the 1.5 qt. model from Cuisinart. I made strawberry banana, and also baked cinnamon apple. YUM. And they are fat free and (almost) sugar free and easier on the pocketbook, too. I think my machine will pay for itself in a month.
-Cheated: had some brown rice on Saturday afternoon because I was craving sushi so badly someone was gonna get hurt if I didn't get any! ;) (I normally have no carbs after lunchtime). Technically the fro yo is also a cheat b/c of the sugar in the fruit, but I don't count fruit (after all who gets fat eating fruit?!)
Today I was down a half a pound from last week. I was hoping for a bigger loss but I'll take what I can get
How did the weekend go for all of you?
