I added a “Progress Pictures” page to my blog. As you will see, there’s no real timeline involved. I have a picture of me at my heaviest from 2003 and a somewhat recent full-body picture from late-2012. I don’t have a plan to update it weekly or even monthly for that matter. Perhaps once I … Continue reading »
That all too familiar feeling.
I’m an emotional eater. I eat when I’m stressed or bored…when I’m happy or when I’m sad. So basically I’m always eating – ha! As I mentioned in an earlier post, I was celebrating a very important anniversary earlier this week. Apparently that was enough of a reason to throw my healthy eating out of … Continue reading »
Save the Date
Today I’m taking a break from the weight loss/fitness aspect about my blog to discuss something that is very important to me. I’m getting married on December 31, 2013. Eight years ago there was a chance that I might not have made it to New Year’s Eve 2013…there was a chance that I never would … Continue reading »
Weight Watchers Wednesday
After making a conscious effort to track every bite I took, avoiding a third helping of mac and cheese at Sunday’s picnic, and trying to go for walks during my lunch break, I’m happy to report that this week I’m down 1 pound! I’ll take it.
“I am the captain of this ship…”
Even though I’ve gained a bit of weight on my blogging hiatus, I still loosely followed Weight Watchers and attended meetings when my schedule allowed for it. Last Wednesday I resolved to make time for my lunchtime WW meeting where the topic of the week was “anchoring”. Our leader, Jim, began the meeting asking us … Continue reading »
Still learning to run for beer…
After an unnecessarily long hiatus from blogging, I am back! Three months have passed since my last post and I am no closer to finishing that 5K. One would think that getting married in less than eight months, having to try on wedding dresses, and wanting to look good in a bathing suit on your … Continue reading »
Worst Blogger EVER.
It’s been just over a month since my last post. I envy those bloggers who have the time and inspiration to blog on a daily basis. Hell, I’d be happy if I could blog on a weekly basis! I do not have anything exciting to report on the “running for beer” front, but a lot … Continue reading »
Facing Reality.
I stepped on the scale on Friday morning and wasn’t ready for the number I saw. I shouldn’t have been so surprised to see it. The holidays are always tough for me, but I feel like I’ve been in celebration mode since our engagement. I justified trips to Shake Shack by telling myself that Shredding … Continue reading »
“The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.”
I had every good intention when I set my alarm for 5 am this morning. I assumed my weekday morning routine could be adjusted to allow for some quality time with our new treadmill. It seemed easy enough. 5:00 – 5:30: Walk Gus. 5:30 – 6:00/6:15: Work on fitness. 6:15 – 7:15: Get ready for … Continue reading »
Resolutions for 2013.
2012 proved to be quite an exciting year, but I think 2013 might be even more so. As usual I do have a few resolutions: Get in shape and lose some weight. #SheddingForTheWedding #SlimDownForTheGown P and I bought each other a treadmill for Christmas, and I’ve already signed us up for our first 5K of … Continue reading »
