Another midnight meltdown

OK, it was actually a 2 a.m. meltdown, because we got off work late. But after work, I drove straight to Del Taco and bought a cheeseburger, small fries AND a taco. (As I was eating the taco, which I had first while driving home, I was thinking “this doesn’t even taste good.” It didn’t […]

Another good day

That makes two in a row!
The best part of today was the workout. I went to another “boot camp express” class at the gym. 45 minutes of rebounding, jumping rope, kick boxing and jumping jacks was hard (I slowed down a couple of times to the standard “step-touch” move) but afterward, I felt great. […]

A first for me … I think

I actually needed a snack when I got home from work tonight. Usually I want a little something to eat but don’t need it because I’ve already had all my Points for the day.
Today, I slept through my alarm (’til 11 a.m., actually) and didn’t really eat breakfast (had half a 1-Point bagel and 1 […]

Good end to the day

The rest of my Sunday was fine … maybe even better than fine. We finished the paper early, and I didn’t let my food choices get out of control. My dinner was a total of 9 Points, with 2 Points invested in after-dinner snacking … for a total of 32 Points. If I subtract […]

All-around good day

Kept the food thing under control, worked out for more than an hour and finally changed the cat litter. (The cats say, “It’s about time!”)
I have a small case of the munchies, but I think I’ll head straight home and make myself a quesadilla on the George Foreman grill. (This would be a vast improvement […]

Weigh-in had better be a good one

I weigh in at noon Monday. All I can say is I’d better see some downward movement on the scale, because I had a pretty good eating week and a stellar week of activity. That’s right. I think I’ve worked out every day this week — even on Tuesday, when I was sick to my […]

Second straight day OP

The title of this post says it all, I think. And it’s a great accomplishment for me, I must say. I’ve been having a heck of a time lately.
Today I had 27 1/2 of my 28 Points, and worked out for an hour and 15 minutes. OK, I was only at the gym for 45 […]

A mixed day

Today was both good and bad. I got up and went to the gym, which was good. Spent 67 minutes total working out — 25 on the elliptical, 22 on the treadmill and 20 on weights, which was great. (Even better, the elliptical and treadmill said I burned a total of about 450 calories combined.)
The […]

The good news just keeps on coming

Monday has been a good day. It was one of those days when everything went right, for a change! Here are the highlights:

Despite last week’s late-night munchie addiction, I managed to post a loss at Monday’s weigh-in. (Down 2 pounds, for a total of 26.6 pound since I joined WW at the end of August […]

Errands and work …

Being busy got the best of me again Saturday. I got a lot of things done — such as the oil change I’ve been putting off for about 3,000 miles! — but all the running around did nothing for my exercise time. I barely logged 8,500 steps on the pedometer … so there’s no way […]
