Today was THIRTEEN hours in the office. 7am-8pm, about an hour commute each way as well...glad to be home. skipped out fully on exercise bc i got home and realized that tomorrow i'll be energized & make sure i have a very good workout after having today off...but i HATE taking off fully, even from a walk. on this night, it's better i get a full night's sleep. so that i feel better tomorrow evening & Wednesday when I have off. I have off for the Jewish holidays, but i will NOT be fasting. I feel i'm already under too much pressure & fasting is completely not what I should be doing - it also causes me intense desire to binge the next few days...as I have experienced this in the past & i'm already struggling a little bit lately with eating in a controlled state without binges.
1800 cal.
goodnight.
Progress as of today: 14 lbs lost so far, only 6 lbs to go!
Good bootcamp workout in AM.
calories up to & including a huge 1:30pm late lunch (felt the desire to eat a big, big 1050 cal meal but healthier than usual bc it did include veggies, carbs, protein): 2100 so far, planning on a higher calorie day :-) It IS OK!
another binge, too much work, too much exhaustion lately.
around 4000 cal today.
Progress as of today: 14 lbs lost so far, only 6 lbs to go!
2200 total cal. good.
exercise: bootcamp this AM, hour jog/walk
taking it easier this weekend.
I am so freakin proud of myself for losing close to 15 lbs this year. My journey is NOT over bc I am driven to succeed. I will be a cop and in a year or less that process WILL fully begin for me. I thought it would be sooner, but I made a phone call, and there is probably still several months of just waiting on my part. Thank god I have a job for now...
Back to the weightloss, this journey is NOT over. I have fitness that I am still improving on - especially the aspect of becoming a better runner. I am so proud of myself - the fact that I AM a RUNNER now! amazing.
So weightloss, I have less than 10 lbs to go. My goal is 115. and at 5' 1.5" it's a nice - healthy weight goal.

haha...was supposed to be at work at 7am but totally slept through...thankfully i was there before 8am!
quick day at work bc we were VERY busy!
1450 cal before evening snack...
evening snack: well, overindulged in protein bars (3) but things could be worse! i also cooked some spaghetti squash for the weekend & ate the peels with the protein bars, along with a couple small plums. LOL. so, total cals around 600.
total: 2050, good.
exercise: an hour jog!
(at 30 yrs old, i noticed how much easier it is to gain weight from binges...)
Progress as of today: 14 lbs lost so far, only 6 lbs to go!
edit: around 2200...and i should really watch these binges, everytime i binge it becomes increasingly harder to maintain a positive outlook and feel good after (for days after!)...
exercise: fantastic weight routine, walking for about one hour.
my weight will be at times around 3-4 lbs higher than the weight listed, but I won't weigh myself for AWHILE, probably till sometime next mid month.
6am EARLY breakfast: egg and tomato juice: 110
7:30 or so late breakfast: oatmeal (peach flavored with added sugar) and bar: 500
snack: would rather not even think about this now... probably another bar...200
810, fine...
lunch: boss will offer me veggies but bc of all these bars and binging mon & tues, i don't think i'll be able to eat anything besides chips & yogurt.
snack/dinner: not sure...but nothing bulky...
snack:
this day already started horribly with me waking up before my darn alarm...dad is having hernia surgery today, i guess he's nervous & up around the house...
Progress as of today: 14 lbs lost so far, only 6 lbs to go!
Actually happy to be back to the grind today :) I consumed maybe 9000 extra calories in these two days. Although I feel miserable, I am glad to get out of the house, back to work & busy...
my sugars are all over the place...and i do feel quite badly...
breakfast: 550
1800 cal & worked over 12 hours (8am till about 8:15pm...) maybe working was better than all that excess eating mon & tues?
Progress as of today: 14 lbs lost so far, only 6 lbs to go!
eating all day long & feeling very warn out.
unfortunately, i wasn't able to use the time wisely at home yesterday and today. too much unplanned time & too much exhaustion really got me making horrible choices, basically to sit around at eat junk ALL DARN DAY. tomorrow i have work, it will be tough going back especially after binging since yesterday evening.
I hadn't done this in a long time & I hope it will not happen any time soon again. I will work not to make this a usual occurance. Just a disorder that is sometimes hard for me to tackle...especially when i'm home, with food, and no plans. should have joined a temple or gone to work!
oh well, tomorrow's a new day.
good evening.
(lots of binging)
left the house to do weights at the gym...feeling like i needed to...
Progress as of today: 14 lbs lost so far, only 6 lbs to go!

I think everyone doing what they can is great. If the fasting causes you to lose sight of the whole purpose of the holiday then it is up to you to decide. Everyone in my family does a different amount. Hope your holiday goes well and the rest of your week too :-) Give yourself a hug.

Good thinking... if you can't handle the fasting over the holidays, then don't do it. Have a good couple days off!!
