I know I'm a broken record. Does anyone have any other new suggestions to help? I weigh the most I've weighed since 2003.
yesterday was brutally bad. today was bad.
calories for breakfast: 710 despite yesterday's binge.
calories until 4:30 pm: 1720
i will allot about 300 more for the rest of the night.
exercise so far is 20 minutes in the morning.
2000 total calories
70 min walking.
total exercise: 29 hours, 10 min
tomorrow will be a GREAT day. I will plan for it tonight. I have to stick to a plan!!!!!!! gosh, if there's no plan, there's no luck with me!
the plan will include exercise in the AM, exercise in the evening after eating dinner, and 1300 calories because it will be easy to do since i have a long meeting after work.
250 cal. breakfast
580 calories during the day at work.
470 calorie dinner. right now, i'm in the mood for lean pockets and a mix of veggies and perhaps kelp noodles for dinner. that's the plan. :)
cruddy day today. gosh, when is this rocky path going to end. I've been so tired out lately. can't sleep for the life of me.
5,000 calories and no exercise yet. it's only 6:12pm though...
exercise is 1 hr. walk/bike
total exercise 28 hours
Dang... Maybe you will sleep well tonight.
In my book, I'm saying this was a good day. Slightly over, but that's ok. Everyday is NOT perfect. calories are 2120. Tomorrow I'll be watching calories again, but I will make sure that everything I eat I truly enjoy. Today was another story, and I almost threw up making dinner. I had bought some package of oysters and they smelled so foul! I quickly threw them out, almost puking in the process!!! I ended with an apple, which i sometimes get an itchy throat from. So, i went on to have pretzels; and they're what put me 100 calories over what I would have had. But, i enjoyed those pretzels!
exercise was also a bit weak today. then again, i'm soo tired!! I did go to bed at midnight and wake up at 4am! I did a 25min walk in the am and a 15 min slow bike in the pm. total exercise is 40 min.
total exercise for oct is: 27 hours :)
--------------------------------------------------
6:35 evening edit: I am proud to say the day has gone pretty well! :) Currently, I have 210 calories left until I reach 2000. I am really, really proud of myself for not caving in and buying junk food a lunch, especially because of lack of sleep and for what that does to my judgement! :) yay for me! :) so far, i've had 25 minutes exercise in the AM. Now, i'm off to some bike and treadmill here at home for the PM! :)
Morning entry: hi everyone. i knew today would be a "good day" but then I couldn't sleep. I woke up at 4 and finally gave into eating something a little before 5am. I ate a lot. However, with snacks and meals, I can make my total intake aroud 2000 without any real deprivation from eating at all today. So, I'm still looking ahead to a good day although I have some lack of sleep to battle with! :)
I know tomorrow will be a good day too. Planning is ESSENTIAL!
Great day due to good planning.
Exercise: 6.5 miles walking. 2 hours and 10 minutes. Actually, it took me much longer than that, but I always record 20 minutes for each mile I do. I even stopped for a rest along the way today during the middle of my walk because I was soooo tired. I didn't walk this morning and I can tell my body has gotten used to the nice lift a morning walk provides. I missed that feeling.
I went to see The Kingdom today. It's a great movie about our polital policies with the Saudis and it relates to 9/11. It's quite a dramatic movie, to say the least. If you don't like gore and brutality, I wouldn't see it. I liked it very much.
Total exercise in October: 26 hours, 20 min :)
calories were 1200.
I think i made up for Friday's binge. Now, my goal is to maintain this low level of calories until next Monday. I want to loose some of the weight I recently gained.
exercise: 2hr, 10 min
total: 24 hr, 10 min!
today was a great calorie and exercise day. I'm heading in the right direction. Tomorrow, I know, will be just as good! :)
calories are close to 1200. :) i'm very happy about this!
exercise: 1 mile in the morning, 5.5 mile walk near the water. so far, 6.5 miles. I might walk on the treadmill for a little while as I watch some tv.
I've also joined this dating service. lol. it's something that's pretty popular on Long Island. I've been talking to a few people online. Hey, its just good fun.
Have a goodnight everyone. I never ended up seeing a movie today. But, tomorrow, i'm going to see the new movie with Halle Berry in it! :) I love her acting.
Goodnight all! :)
I will plan for tomorrow. Whenever I have a plan, the whole day goes sooo much smoother! Also, the walk in the morning after I have breakfast is working out well!
Saturday afternoon edit:
this day is really turning into an ugly day. it's turning ugly because everyone is fighting and the whole atmosphere in this house is just nasty. my sister is b----ing everyone around. I really DON'T understand it. She really expects us all to do things for her. I asked her to take the soap out of a tubberware container that i had bought and she just wouldn't do it. i asked again, with more authority, and she got all pissed at me. She said there were no other ones like it. I told her to buy one. she still wouldn't take the soap out. I took it out. I got SCREAMED at by my mother. arg!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Saturday AM edit:
So today is good so far. I had breakfast and it was bran and soy peanut butter protein powder mix with water. It was satisfying. then, i drank a lot of water with cherry chocolate flavored stevia in it. My stomach is pretty full - being from breakfast and from last night.
The plan is to walk on the treadmill for 1/2 hr, clean the bathroom, shower, watch a movie, exercise at the park, go to the bookstore, exercise at the gym, and watch another movie tonight. arg. I really wish I could start volunteering already. I just finished all the medical tests for it yesterday! :) I will also probably start working at the elementary after school a couple days a week. more to update later.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Friday entry: exercise was not so great today. morning was 20 min treadmill, evening was 5 min treadmill and 20 min bike.
total exercise today: 45 lousy, slow minutes.
total Oct: 22 hrs :)
Hi.
I had a totally preventable binge. arg. it's ok though. If i eat well, correctly, over the weekend @ 1200 cal per day I will be happy.
Today's calories are 3800. The binge was in the evening and it was on bread and peanut butter. haha, 1/2 cup peanut butter and lots of bread and a banana. and this was after a meal....and then i had two "real" jellos, cereal, more cereal and soy milk.
hmm. i will exercise. I think it'll just be a walk on the treadmill at home so that i can wear whatever i like and not see anyone. lol.
today's weather was CRAZY. it was pouring and when school got out i had to walk students to the bus in the pouring rain. oh my. i got drenched, then i had to find my car at the train and go straight to the doctor to finish up a blood test that i didn't do in order to volunteer. it's all done now! thankfully!
now, i'm going to check the weather and see what plans I need to make in order to get a good amount of exercise in for this weekend!
goodnight all!
I wish you the best for the weekend.. you'll do great!!,, hugs my friend..
total exercise: 21 hrs, 15 min :)
today was a little odd. I had a powerpoint meeting after work which was helpful. I also went to exercise, only to find out there was also some marching band festival going on. i stopped by to watch a little bit after exercising. then, i accidentally walked the wrong way back only to see the gate locked. i had to walk 10 minutes back the other way. There was nobody around and it was definitely a little scary, to say the least.
calories were good, because i was busy and because i made good choices. same with exercise.
calories: about 1330
exercise: 1 hr, 20 min :)
I'm a bit tired...so, i'm just going to bed early, 30 min walking.
total 19 hrs, 55 min.
I actually did have a pretty busy day. first time in awhile and tomorrow will be similiar to today! :) Life needs activity sometimes.
calories could have been LOWER, but i shouldn't even worry about that because my body needs to adjust SLOWLY, as workingit would agree with, to this lower calorie diet. today is 1600. I had some extra veggie sausage and bread at dinner.
i had my first fall apple today. i hadn't been eating much fruit, or practically any fruit, for about one month. It tasted really good. I'll be definitely having one a day. I intend to begin the day with an apple before what i hope to be my usual 20 minute early morning walks. I will build up minutes from 20. For the rest of the month, my goal is 20 minutes every morning.
I would love if then November would be 25 min in the morning, December 30 min, January 35, February 40, March 45, April 50, May 55 minutes. After reaching 55 minutes, I'd stick to that as my early morning exercise.
nothing else new. Just a few teaching courses through the district! :)
I'm pretty tired.
NO Exercise.
i must update one more time today. I shouldn't be acting this way, especially because this is the EASIEST of all jobs i have had in the past 4 years, including this year. I have NO reason to not be able to accomplish what i wish. But, I AM ruining it for myself.
I am going on a 1200 calorie diet. And i would really like to say i will not binge again.
today was not as good as the preceeding days...and my pants are getting really tight!!!
i need to be mature about all of this. i'm acting really immature, eating whatever i wish. this is not smart.
i've been buying stuff out of the vending machine at lunch. It's pretty much on a daily basis. it's not healthy, but i was figurring that would be a great way to end cravings. nah. it's not working. I still binged after school.
therefore, i will have to change my mindset. yet again.
no more junk good. more veggies. my skin is bad because i've been eating bad.
calories are BAD: 5,000.
What I"m trying to say is that rather than count calories and weighing in... maybe it would be better to focus on living and moving out on your own or going to radiology school -- things unrelated to diet and exercise -- for a while.
I am finding out that my eating has a direct correlation with my feelings. When I eat well, I feel happier and more content with my life and myself. When you're more balanced and consistent with everything you do, life will go a lot more smoothly. Things will make sense. Willpower will be strong.
Good luck!
P.S. The wrap I had at Subway was on whole wheat...:)
tired.
calories: 2065 ehh. i messed up in calculations and i meant for it to be a little lower.
exercise today: 1 hr, 45 min :) mostly walking/bike.
total oct: 19 hr, 25 min.
Ah ha - I see you rode your bike. Isn't it just great weather for it? I have to say I am in love with the bike. Who would have thought it?

I hope today (thursday) is better for you - good luck!!
Donkey on 10/24/2007:
OK, what's bothering you?
maria777 on 10/24/2007:
What helps me is eating brunch instead of breaky AND lunch sometimes. Also...DISTRACTIONS from stress, which can cause you to be easy to reach for comfort to foods. Hope this helps and I don't think you are overweight at all. As a matter of fact, given the charts, I think our bmi's are about the same...as I'm 5'8" and weigh 154.
hollybelle on 10/25/2007:
You can break this cycle.
fritters on 10/25/2007:
124 is a good weight for 5'2". Maybe you should just concentrate on being healthy and happy. Maintain weight and get in some good cardio everyday. Lighten up on your self!!
