Not the greatest! Having a whole lot of, "GET IT TOGETHER," speeches with myself. But, I'm trying to pat myself on the back for little things - packing lunches, weighing trouble items (like peanut butter) and hoping to get back to honest tracking here soon.
I hit "one"derland (barely) but it was so nice to see my weight in the 100's again. It's been awhile. Going to try for another 5 before we go on vacation at the end of the month which would take me to the big -50 in 6 months. It may be wishful thinking I am happy either way. I am considering my next goal of losing -5 a month till the end of the year. I work better with small goals.
I have discovered there is a walking track in my work building and I love it. I can even take calls while I walk. It really helps in the afternoon to go for a walk after lunch. I am just kicking myself for not going earlier. I knew it was there for a while now but only ventured down there for the first time last week. It's my new favorite time of the day.
I ended up down 2 lbs. The worst was stomach flu on Monday. I pretty much spent all morning with my head in the toilet. I can't for the life of me figure out what it was - DH and I had the same dinner and he was fine (so clearly not food poisioning), I took a PG test and it's negative (we're doing IVF) so I'm chalking it up to a fluke.

Not a great week to try to lose these last 2 lbs for my diet bet. It's opening weekend at my university, which means ungodly early mornings, quick lunches, and late nights. I'm in survival mode, just eating whatever I can grab. On the upside, I'll get lots of extra steps in, so it tends to mostly balance out.

I was on vacation last week and ate all the food, so I’ve been trying to get back on the wagon. I’m down 3 lbs since we got home, which I know is water weight, but it’s still been motivating. I just completed week 3, day 2 of C25K and I’ve been right at my calories the past two days and haven’t been starving. Hopefully I can keep this momentum going!
I've been totally off the wagon with no end in sight, but I still go to my meetings, hoping to get the spark. But last night, I got to the door and turned right around - we had a substitute leader we've had before and she drives me up a fucking wall. She totally won't help me get back on track.
I quit IF because I wasn’t seeing any results other than me missing my morning coffee. It seriously put me in a sad a mood every day. I’m back to counting calories.
