Ok day

Nov 10 2009 16:38

Today I exercised, still haven't gotten into the swing of taking my vitamins. I really hatre taking three huge pills in the morning.Still have dinner to go tonight, but I really want to keep it small, I have definitely eaten more today than yesterdsy, but I was hungrier today. Anyways, onward to school work.

Success Today

Nov 09 2009 22:22

So today has been a good day for me for my health, but bad for school. I got up early and exercised, I stuck to healthy eating all day and the blood sugar was pretty good, only one high because I was stupid and forgot to bolus. I have been trying to study Bacteriology all night, but to no avail. I am hoping this little break will set things in motion. On top of that, pharmacology is also not going great. Sigh, I really just need to focus right now. I want to I just need to make my brain absorb everything.

On another note, I got the confirmation for Africa. That means in May I will be going there for three weeks to study wildlife medicine. That means I have 6 months to get in shape so I can chase down giraffes and go cage diving with sharks. I just have to stay focused and keep exercising and working hard in school!!!

Back for Good!!!

Day 4

Aug 15 2009 13:21

Made the mistake of making truffles last night. I was planning on givingthem to Max but now I am thinking about throwing them out. The recipe didnt turn out well for me, and they are a bit tempting, although now that they are tucked away in the fridge it isn't so bad. After Barefoot Contessa I am working out with Turbo jam and then maybe taking a walk. I forgot i was on call today, i was going to go for a hike, but I can't since I need to be within easy reach of the vet school. Oh well, I will just have fun dancing.

Note: Start Weight= 182 lbs.

Current Weight = 176 lbs.

Lost: 6/62 !!!

Day 3

Aug 14 2009 09:12

Yesterday I had a binge but stopped in the middle!!! That's the first time that has ever happened! I binged not because I was hungry, but because i got scared when my blood sugar was low, and ate too much. Before that I had mnaged not to panic and had a small, sensible snack. However, my sugar went back down, so I panicked. I was still able to burn off 589 calories, so I was happy. I weighed myself today and it said 176 lbs. My guess is it is water weight, but it is a step in the right direction anyways! After only seeing the scale go up for so long I was happy to record a smaller weight! 175 here I come!

My back is very tight today. I could really go for a massage. Last time this happened Max was here and made me feel so much better! I miss him so much! My Doctors appointment went well, I think. I am meeting with a Diabetes educator next week to help me with my diet. I am really tired, haven't been sleeping well lately so I may take a nap later...sigh...so much to do.

Day 2

Aug 13 2009 12:08

Today I am doing Turbo Jam and hopefully taking a walk this afternoon. Trying to eat a bit more because I always end up around a thousand calories. I could get some nuts or eat a high calorie treat for the other 200, but I am trying not to go shopping until Sunday morning. Hopefully will get up to 1200 after I get more food in the house.

Todays burn = 1200 calories

Ysterday burn = 1000 caloies

Let's Go!

Aug 12 2009 13:34

School is about to start, and now is the perfect time to lose weight. I am trying to lose a pound a week. Slow and steady, but hopefully something i can stick to. i am doing a variety of exercise, based on what I feel like. If I feel like a walk, I walk, if I want to use a video, I do a video. As far as food goes, I am trying to cut back and eat what I want. slowly integrating foods others will eat too. i am at 179 lbs. Let's go 178!

Goal 1: Lose 4 lbs. for a BMI of 31

One Day at a Time

Jul 16 2009 07:12

Goals:

Eat 1300 calories

Exercise

Drink 4 glasses of H2O

Reset Button

Jul 11 2009 21:10

I really need a reset button. Why? I am failing at health right now. All my eating habits have bottomed out. I am having problems with binge eating. I am eating all of the wrong foods. I am eating cookies, white bread and fatty meats. I am eating way too much in general. I am not drinking water, I am not exercising. My self esteem is low. I avoid mirrors and cameras, I am ashamed of myself. I am the heaviest I have ever been.

It is time to stop. I cannot go on living this way. From here on I will take the steps needed to have a long healthy life.

Slow and Steady

May 26 2009 07:28

I have 57 lbs. to lose. I can do that in a year hopefully, but right now I am just going to take it slow and steady....one day at a time. I ordered the Slim in 6 DVD's and am hoping they will help jump start things this summe. I would love to lose 20 - 30 lbs. before Iris gets married...but we will see how that goes. I really need to watch what I eat today and make sure I get some good exercise. We will see what happens.

So far so good..it's almost 4:00 and I still have 540 calories left for the day. I walked to work and back and I still have some chores to do, shopping etc. Need to callhome and ask mom for some money and think about what I want for dinner.

Well, the day is over. I did ok! around 1300 calories and a bit of exercise. I a very tempted right now to eat more, but I think I will try my best not to. Hopefully tomorrow will be good too.
