You better get your name on the wagon list people!!!

Sincerely,

Chris

On this day of universal love... I love & forgive myself!  

Religion aside....  

Tis the season for sugar plums dancing in our heads and candy dishes on everyone's desks.  Pretty soon all that junk will be gone and we can get serious again.  Today I am not going to figure out all my foods. Heck I didnt make 95% of what I ate, I wouldnt even know how to begin to log much of it.  This holiday season I forgive all those around me for being too into eating junk.  Today I forgive myself for each time I gave into the cookies and M&Ms that surrounded me.  Today I let myself widen in the seat because I know that tomorrow I will wake up to my own refrigerator and my control of my future will be completely in my hands again.   I will not beat myself up if the scale goes up tomorrow.  Heck, I will not even weigh myself again until I have had a week to put my festive nibbling behind me.

Today is a day of charity, hope, love and forgiveness, and I am the first one that I forgive. ~ Lost Artist

For some reason I can't wait till morning so I can go for my jog.. Think I am going crazy.....

::Grins::  Crazy is a compliment these days.  I had caffeine way late, I here I am reved and posting.  ~ Lost Artist

SWEEEEEET!!!.. burn those calories!! feel the burrrrrrrrrrn!

no more whining, let's get this thing rolling again!!!!

Mmm... The sweet taste of a dieter's breakfast... I'mmmm Backkkk!

Yanno, I almost missed my Flax Oatmeal breakfast (Maybe because I make it taste so darn delicious...) It's surely no comparison to my Christmas breakfast of Cereal, French Toast and Ice Cream lol... But eh... Still good nonetheless...

If anyone wants to try some, here's the recipeeee:

1/2 Cup Unsweeted Oatmeal
2 tbsp Flax Seed
Enough water to make it the consistency you want...

I "sweeten" mine with:

5 (Give or take) Strawberries
1 tbsp Naturally More Peanut Butter
2 tsp Cinnamon (I kinda just pour a whole lot in there... I LOVE cinnamon)
1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein

Nuke the oatmeal for about 1.5 minutes... Seperately nuke "sweetener" until strawberries get kinda soft and stirrable... Stir up the "sweetner" real nice until it's all good and blended and pour over oatmeal... Stir some more... And enjoy...

I agree with you Chris, but for me it gets hard sometimes. I'm trying to look at little accomplishments. I went out to lunch wiht my sister today, and we both split a DQ grilled chicken meal. Got water instead of soda. She said something that made me think. (Btw this girl was chubby as a freshman in high school, 2 years out of high school and she makes everyone go wow) She is like, stop running after low fat, blah blahs. Instead just eat half of what you would eat. Portion control is what you should do. I was gonna order something more just coz, but I didn't and I realized I was already full. I just wanted to do something with my hands and mouth, but instead of getting some food, I went over to the gym and burnt abt 70 calories. Yeah I know not a lot but something is better than nothing. Thanks everyone on CC, its great to have someone know where you are coming from. :) 

i be in...already started with bypassing my beloved coffee for a nice glass of...ice water. gonna run my stairs on lunch, no more excuses that i have to skip my workout cuz i need to go shopping on lunch. i'm in..i would like to lose 2 more lbs by the end of this week,  i have a goal pair of pants that i was wanting to wear for my new years party..i can do it!

Good for you and I'm with you lost_artist.  No beating myself up about it now.  I indulged and I enjoyed.  That said, I'm ready to get down to business again.  

Thanks guys....I was feeling like wow, I just blew it......:)....You have given me motivation.

*hangs head in shame*

Okay, okay!!!  I feel gross - I'll get back on that wagon w/ you!

Last night I did crunches & arms for the first time in weeks.  This morning I'm drinking a huge cup of herbal tea instead of coffee.  I will work to do better & get away from posting to vent my "sins".

Thanks.

I feel gross too. I feel like everyone can see my gain and it's embarrassing!! I'm in on this!! I'm SO going to work out tonight!! And eat good!! No excuses anymore!!!

Hey guys, don't you know, the fact that when we splurge on this stuff and then really feel ill means we ARE WINNING.  I used to eat junk food all the time and I never felt sick, so I kept eating more.  Now if I eat that crap, or I just eat a lot of food volume in general I cannot handle it.  It makes turning around the next day and eating right, possible.  We should be proud that we are hearing our bodies, and they are saying, "you know all that stuff you just ate, it aint working for me"

Everyone is sitting in the living room watching the boob tube. So I don't want to kick them out so I can do my weights. However... I am going to jump on the elliptical with my new MP3 player and heart monitor... and flaunt my fitness at the couch potato crew RIGHT NOW!

GOOD START PEOPLE!!! Let's go!! I actually feel sick today cause of the crap I ate yesterday, back to healthy foods!!

It's time too show all those people that we are made of steel!!!!!

It worked after a few minutes my husband came and joined the workout!  Yeah! It feels so much better now that I have shaken it up and worked it out.

Im with you chris.. its time to get back into the swing of things...

That is hillarious!!!   Talk about mental warfare!  Go Ninav GO!!!!!!!!!

I am totally off schedule because of me giving in late in the evening to one heck of a yummy power packed Cappacino!  I didnt want to face doing anything after all that.   But reading what Nina just did, and the rest of you...  I am heading out the door to walk the dogs! ~ Lost Artist

Personally, I'm sitting on my heiney today...

I'm still digesting food from two days ago.

BUT, I got my daughter a yoga mat for Christmas, so tomorrow, my slothfulness is over.

My motivation, in case anyone thinks sitting around on one's heiney is not a good diet and exercise tip, is that my EDP (estimated date of perfection) is not a goal date, but a deadline.

Hee. I gave myself the day off from logging yesterday and I didn't worry about what the hell I ate. I'm totally paying for it today... I feel sick and way overloaded on junk food. I didn't even eat THAT badly yesterday! I just decided not to log.

But the point is that I'm definitely not quitting :) One day off, one year on, right?! I'm glad to be back to logging and I'm going to eat WONDERFULLY this week! Yes, even on New Years! And I will be DOWN by the time I get back to school, I know it! No gym? No problem! I've got a road, I've got sneakers, I've got a floor. Crunches and walking, baby!

Hehe. I think I'm still sugarhigh from yesterday :D  No matter! I'll work it off now and it will be fun! Woohoo!
