Katie Restarting

NSVs

I went three days in a row eating withing my calorie range. In those three days, I went to the gym once and worked out at my apartment once. 

Yesterday, I was craving fried shrimp. But, I didn’t go to Long John Silver’s because I know I’ll get friend shrimp next Friday. As the night wore on, I was craving pizza. I went so far as to go to the Domino’s website. If you bought two pizzas, you got parmesan bites for $1. The more I thought about it, I realized that I didn’t want to eat pizza all weekend. And I didn’t really want to spend $20 on food. So I made two tortilla pizzas and that was that.

This morning, I thought about just skipping the gym. And getting McDonald’s for breakfast. I eventually talked myself out of the McDonalds. And dragged myself out of bed to go to the gym.

Weigh-in Wednesday

Two weeks ago: 188.6

This week: 193.2

Obviously, I’m still half-assing my health.

I spent a long birthday weekend at home, and have realized that I’m just pissed at myself. It’s one thing for me to notice that I put all the weight back on, but it’s another thing when I have proof that everyone else knows.

One of my Lenten resolutions is to get back to eating healthy.  

Weigh-in Wednesday

Last week: 186.8

This week: 188.6

+1.8

Expected because of how much I ate and how little I exercised.

Restarting: Week 1 Review

Wednesday, the first day of the week was good. 

On Thursday, I ate nachos for dinner. And the rest of the week was a downward spiral. I had friends visit over the weekend, so we ate like it was a Superbowl Party all weekend. I had soda once, pizza twice, and Subway once. Then I ate leftovers Monday and Tuesday. I went to the gym on Wednesday.

On a positive note, I think I’ve eaten all of the party food. And my grocery budget is almost used up, so there’s mostly healthy food at my apartment right now.

That awkward moment where you want to eat everything in sight. 

February 1, 2012

Exercise

• 35 minutes elliptical: -445 calories
• Day 1 of “Fab Ab February”

I was under my calories as well!

At the gym, I was reminded how out of shape I am. 

Weigh-in Wednesday

This is my first WIW in a long time. It’s the first WIW since I changed my blog name. Here goes:

1/18/2012: 184.4

Today: 186.8

That’s a 2.4lb gain which shouldn’t surprised me. That’s what happens when you eat everything you want and don’t exercise at all.

Here’s to a better number next week!

February Goals

• No fast food
• Eat pizza once this month
• Go to the gym 4 days a week
• Eat within my calorie limit at least 20 days this month
• WIW, every Wednesday
• No soda

February is by far my favorite month of the year because it’s my birth-month! On my birthday, I am allowed to eat and drink whatever I want. But I need to stop with the fast food, I don’t want to admit how many times I went to McDonald’s in January. And when presented with pizza, I won’t stop until there’s none left. I need to get back into going to the gym.
