Last week I had a rough go when it came to working out as my shifts at work were not the norm and thus I wasn’t able to attend boot camp the way I wanted to. This week was much better for that, I have been 4 times so far, which is great! I also … Continue reading
I knew this day was coming…the day when I would need to measure everything that goes into my mouth. I started it slowly, when I moved to Houston, by measuring the amount of chicken, beef and fish I was eating. I will admit that when it came to snacking, I was lax. When it came … Continue reading
I have almost been at an epic weight for almost 8 weeks. My weight has not budged for the entire time to get me to this weight, the lowest I will have been since I was a teen. So I made a decision–I broke up with the scale. It’s not going to be for forever, I … Continue reading
I read an article on the weekend that honestly scared the crap out of me. It was an article on why our food was making us, as a society, fat. It looks at the origins of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and how it became a staples in a majority of foods being produced. I … Continue reading

It’s kind of amazing how the week that I gain weight is the week when I start seeing differences in my body again. It started with my trainer saying something on Monday. Then the next day at work my boss said that it was getting noticeable that I was losing weight, that I was looking different. Then … Continue reading
It wasn’t a tremendous gain, but a gain none-the-less. It’s sad. It’s demoralizing. I am working very hard to lose weight and get in shape, so to see a gain is disheartening. I have just recently written about my struggles with food and I know that Easter weekend didn’t help matters (eating mini eggs) nor … Continue reading
The latest Weight Watchers meeting discussed tricks when you eat out. This was a great topic considering that the week before I ate out three times and ordered from the menu without really thinking too much. I made sure I was ordering chicken and somewhat healthy food but I still ate the bread when it … Continue reading
