:-( was a very, very bad day at work today.
Progress as of today: 10.5 lbs lost so far, only 5.5 lbs to go!
extra calories from Saturday night and Sunday AM: 3500 + 2000 = 5500 EXTRA. wowzers. Figure 2 weeks to even this out. sh^t. my fault. i've haulted my progress for the cruise, too. It will be practically impossible to weigh the 115 lbs that I could weigh if I actually stuck to my goals. But, I was exhausted, I look exhausted, and maybe I really couldn't handle eating on track...I am not sure...I haven't slept well in months. with losing sleep all week, getting on track on the weekend can be difficult...oh well. a new job would help. :-( I am doing something to get a better job, with normal hours, and normal pay...working on it. I applied to the NYPD and passed the test, I want to get into the academy. doing that would get me out of this HORRIBLE rut.
breakfast: sweet yogurts (one was a chocolate mousse style) with some flax, raisins 550
snack: ices 120, healthier protein bar 220, kombucha 60 400
lots of cachews 450, soup 150, pretzels 200, chips 250: 1050
bread: 300
candy: chocolate types 700 1000
snack and dinner: taco bell (when i binge like this, i find that heavy/processed/fast food helps me get BACK on track because my body is so out of whack and just cravingthe fat/protein/carb mixture...the only thing that will satisfy me many times after binging like this. so, taco bell: 800 (300 for the snack, 500 for dinner.)
total: 4050.
OK. glad this weekend is over, sorta. i wasted it, calorie-wise. It'll take like 2 weeks to even out all these excess calories, not sure why i couldn't control myself except that i was very exhausted, had periods of insomnia, andi haven;t slept well in a very long time. my job just about sucks.
EXERCISE: run/walk of 4 miles, weights for an hour. THANK GOD.

will not be getting a good sleep as i am going to bed around 10:30 and need to be up around 5...not enough hours. last night i got about 5-6 hours, as well. great way to start the week...i'm a bit pissed off because my boss asked me to come in early...and i also stayed very late. i worked 8am-6:45pm. that's a lot of hours, almost 11.
3200 calories today. my mess-up was midnight...and also lunchtime. i felt very low on sugar and dizzy at work. a coworker gave me a banana, actually, this morning. rough day. the rest of the day i actually managed much better.
exercise: 4 mi run/walk...good!
midnight: hungry had a snack: apple and klondike bar, felt low on sugar...360, good....ummm, and 3.5 servings pretzels, was craving sugar/bread but also i really think i needed it...440 in pretzels, sheesh.

I hope you can get some sleep! I agree, the less sleep and more tired we feel...the hungrier we get. It happens to me every time! Take care!
edit: approx. 2350 calories today = good. happy with it. exercise: 4.5 mi walk/jog and weights.
goodnight!
alright, so losing what is FIVE pounds to even get to120 is going to require strategy! Basically, I know what I need - sleep! Therefore, even if I have to do less weightlifting in order to get more ZZZZs, this is what I'm going to HAVE to do, if I want to lose weight.
Otherwise, with chronic sleep deprivation, I will be hungrier, eating more often, and craving food much more. To prevent this as much as possible, I'm going to try as much as possible, this month especially, to get more sleep and even skip the weights up to once a week in order to get the sleep I need. This means sorta being satisfied if i lift weights only 2x a week sometimes, instead of 3. I don't love this idea, but I know that sleep is more important :-( right now for weightloss. I will continue with having cardio everyday.
I had a successful weekend of eating; and today will be the same way. I have healthy food choices and small things to snack on when hungry - I am prepared.
In the back of my mind, I have this little goal: to take a bathing suit pic on the cruise and use it as my facebook profile pic....at least from the waist up. this would be only if I were weighing maybe 119 or so...or if I feel that I do look good in the pic! :-) i would definitely put a a pic if i reach my goal, and, believe me, there is no feeling better than being able to do that. It's been a long time since I weighed in the teens. remember, i'm short, 5'1", so it is a good weight for me!
last time I weighed in the teens was in the summer/fall of 2007. 4.5 years ago. before i actally gave into all temptations/cravings and got fully depressed about not teaching music anymore.
breakfast: all natural protein bar chocolate flavor and cooked cranberries: 300.
snack: soy chips :-) yummy. 150
snack: another of those protein bars :-) 170
tsf: 620, nice.
lunch: okra and chicken/lamb (leftovers from earlier this week), pita. soy chips?
snack: ?
dinner:
Progress as of today: 10.5 lbs lost so far, only 5.5 lbs to go!
February weekend goal: calories up to 2250 and no more on fri, sat, sun. not even 2500 :-) Other than my issues with weekend eating, I don't want to make anymore changes to my diet because I'm satisfied with it, right now.
Weightloss progress is indeed very good. 125 lbs now. I have been maintaining my weight over the past few months with a 2000-2250 cal diet. I know I can easily drop at least a couple pounds this month, February.
6am: woke up, so had a tasty, healthier type bar. 170. lots of protein and fiber., diet cranberry juice, tea.
today's cals probably around 2000, maybe a little more. i count today as a major success.
exercise: also a success. 3 mi at the park and walking at the mall. perfecto.

Hi there. Hope your week started out OK. I like the Taco Bell Fresca menu items - at least I can slip in fast food once in awhile that I know the calories in! I usualy get two tacos.
