Leaving on a Jet Plane

Well folks, I won't be in the office for the next couple days while I wrap up stuff before leaving on vacation. I have a lot of things to do...and not looking forward to it all. I also didn't sleep well last night, I think it was too hot yesterday. I was literally dripping in sweat all night. I hate the humidity here. My hair is looking horrible for the past month.

Anyways, I am meeting my blog friend tonight. I'm worried she is going to judge me because I am so hideous and she is so gorgeous. I am wearing horrible clothes and it's raining. I look like a wreck. I have a little present for her so I hope she likes it.

This is my last entry for this month and I promised a weigh in. Here goes: 167 pounds. I know, it sucks. I have been "stressed" and therefore eating like a cow. I suspect this number will go up during the next two weeks. I always feel grumpy when I'm on vacation and my stomach isn't full. It's weird.

Hope everyone has a nice June, and see you in July! Drip sweat!

Disastrous Weekend

Well the weekend was crap. I ate a lot of food yesterday.

I had cheetos, fettucine alfredo, mint klondike bars, harveys for lunch, and then mango smoothie from booster juice. I ate a lot of food. I'm surprised I ate that much...Actually it was my day of freedom as the husband left for his work trip. I miss him already.

Anyways, only 3 days until I leave and we meet for our trip. I need to do a lot of cleaning before I leave...and I am meeting my friend tomorrow. Yay. I hope she doesn't think I'm weird ;)

TGIF

Finally it's Friday!! This was a very long week. Thankfully the lunch for the old Director was cancelled so I don't need to worry about going out and eating something unhealthy!!

Unfortunately, the past few days have been really bad. Yesterday I had shawarma sandwich with potatoes and a sprite (didn't finish the drink though) for lunch, a samosa, and some cake as an afternoon snack. In the evening, I had some samples from costco, then when we got home, some popcorn, oatmeal, ice cream and half a package of licorice. I think I got the junk food out of my system. I also think I know what happened: my period started! Totally craving sweets all day!!

Back on track today! I worked out this morning and was "dripping sweat" as Jillian Michaels likes to say. I am going to keep it up all week and I'm very excited for it. I discovered a new DVD and I'll write more about it next week.

Keep up the good work everyone and have an excellent weekend! I'm going to try to avoid getting on the scale from now on. Seeing that number just brings me down. I think I should be able to guage inch loss by how many holes I can skip in my belt!!

Something I realized this week: I don't take care of myself. I wonder why? Maybe I feel like I am not worth it. These kinds of feelings have been ingrained into me since childhood. I am terrified of doing the same to my own future children.

Not going well...

Well, things diet wise haven't being going well. I had McD's last night. And a bagel this morning. Later, we'll have cake as it is a colleague's birthday. I don't know why I give up so easily. First, I could have made my goal very easily before the trip. I messed up so many times, I don't know what is wrong with me.

I think after the husband leaves on his business trip, I might be able to pick up the healthy diet, but then I only have a few days before vacation. And I'll likely gain weight on the trip as well with all the eating out and relatives trying to shove food down my throat 24/7.

I wish I was strong, like I used to be in 2007-2009.

So there isn't going to be a weigh-in this week. The weekend was horrible, especially Sunday where I ate a lot of ice cream, rice, crackers etc. I won't do a weigh-in until the day before I leave for vacation. I am trying to be really good this week and next week. I really don't want anything to derail me, however, just thoughts of the food court are making me hungry! Hopefully I can stay on track. I did the shred this morning and I'm surprised how much I sweat this time. It felt great and my skin is looking so "glowy"!! Love it!

Post-operation appointment is tomorrow and hopefully things will go well. I've figured out what is causing my nausea (the birth control pill) so I have stopped it. I guess that means I will end up with a period this week. Not looking forward to that, but at least it will be over before vacation starts.
