By the time most of you read this, I will be on a plane to Los Angeles (I LOVE AUTO POSTING!) to start the much needed vacation, I am going to make some specific goals for this week so that I don’t totally derail my weight loss/exercise efforts! Last Saturday at my Weight Watchers [...]

While I didn’t work out on 5 days, I did work out on average of 3 days at 30 minutes…which I consider a success! I didn’t work out at all the week before that so 3 days is definitely more than no days.
I’m going to have to get creative with my time to get [...]

Always live up to your standards - by lowering them, if necessary. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic’s Notebook, 1966
Apparently I took the whole “1 habit a month” theory and translated it into “1 post a month”.
Wowser. Anyway. About my April habit…let’s just say that my floors aren’t clean. And I still spend [...]

What will it take for me to stop my behavior of overeating (sometimes to the point of nausea) and not exercising?
What will be the magic ingredient that makes me actually SERIOUS about losing weight and being more healthy?
I know I’m not healthy. I know I can’t keep up with the kids. I know [...]

Last week, I made it a goal to find and compete in a 5K walking race sometime in the next 6 months. I spent a lot of time today looking at various websites for area races and I finally settled on one.
On September 1, 2008, I will be participating in my first ever 5K [...]

Today was the last day of the 10-week fitness challenge hosted by Beth at Mom To 2 Vikings. I had originally committed myself to 120 hours a week for a total of 1200 hours of workout time, but before the challenge ever started, I upped my pledge to 140 hours a week for a [...]

…must come down, right?? Please tell me I’m right.
Here’s how I’m doing with my weight loss/maintenance…
Daily intake of fruits/veggies: 1 a day if I’m lucky
Daily exercise: I am currently more than 150 minutes behind on my challenge goal.
What else I’m eating: donuts, cookies, and those dang pretzels and peanut butter
The result: Back to where [...]

I’m not sure if there will be a Mr. Linky up today at Tales from the Scales…I’m sure that’s the farthest thing from Beth’s mind right now…but I wanted to put this up anyway for my own accountability.
You know it’s bad when it was this morning before I realized that I didn’t even weigh in [...]

I stayed the same this week. I should make a song about that…typing it has just become so boring.
I’m a little surprised that I didn’t go up because I have been in stress eating mode. We only have 10 rehearsals left for the show and…well…I’M FREAKING OUT!! And for me, freaking out [...]

A few weeks back, I very quickly touched on the fact that I thought I had broken my foot. I kicked a basket out of frustration (another proud parenting moment, thank you very much) and immediately regretted it. I went in for x-rays and waited to hear from the doctor. When I never heard anything, [...]
