1/2 bag of cheezies

Vites: all in

Exercites: day off, body is sore. - but my exercites for the week were, 2 -45 min aquasize 2 - 30 min cardio dvd's and 1- 30 min weight training and 1 hour with my  trainer.

So for my first week into exercise it went pretty good, my eating has been aweful, I don't know if it looks as bad a I feel about it (Gina?) but I have been doing a lot of eating when I have not been hungry this week- weird!! My Weight is also up but it can be many reasons, I think its the food but it could just be water weight. I want to lose 10lbs so I can at least get on the plastics referral list, by my ninth year anniversary of the surgery, which is in November. So I have a goal, I have three weeks to get the scale moving in the right direction. Ok thats is, thanks for listening to my little rant.

Chat again tomorrow, folks - have a great day

Susan

You're doing fine. Sometimes you just need a little time to prepare to really buckle down to lose the carbs. Let's aim for Monday to get down to business.

Hi Gina,

Hot here today...90. Crazy October weather. Worked outside with DH and grown grandkids: got the pool closed and almost finished cwaterproofing/staining the deck. DH and I will finish tomorrow

B: protein shake, bacon
S: pumpkin bread
L: leftover Chinese pork and cabbage rolls
S: Apple
D: dinner is out very late for us....not sure what I'll pick because my stomach generally doesn't tolerate late evening eating

V: just finishing
F: ok
E: as mentioned....will probably be sore tomorrow
