Quick dash.......

Just a quick update as I need to run out the door in a few minutes. But I went down a few lbs - yea! Thanks to Sherry for the comment. :) I like how your blog is set up and your post/entry on how to get on track. I've done that its just staying on track that gets me. I've finally set up my stinkin' pedometer so that I know how many steps I have actually taken in a day. >.> I never realized that I had to do that and was quite happy with how many steps/miles I'd been walking before. Hopefully it being dropped in the toilet (it was clean! lol) a few months back won't effect it too much. :-D Ok out the door time and I'll get back on tonight and post the rest of the days activities and foods. ~Hugs~Jen

Here's my food for the rest of Monday, Tuesday and today so far:

Mon. - I'll be totally honest......3 cupcakes wiht frosting, 2 pieces of toast with 1 tbsp of p.b. each, 6 pieces of chocolate from the Whitman's sampler I had, and chicken alfredo with spaghetti noodles and parm. cheese. 1/8 mile (approx.) walk for work.

Tues. - >.< 2 cupcakes with frosting, 8 cups (give or take a cup I didn't measure it) air popped pocorn with parm. cheese, 2 8" beef tacos with cheese, mild taco sauce and sour cream. 1/2 mile (approx.) walk for work.

Wed. - 2 pieces of toast with 1 tbsp. p.b. each, 1/2 orange.

Blargh!!!

So a new year and a new goal, right? Yup even more weight to lose. Last year I started out good but gained it all back and then some from the stress of everything. If you can't be happy - eat! That was my motto. SO this year is starting out great........stinkin' kids birthdays that want cupcakes made for parties......and I make homemade frosting that I HAVE to sample to make sure it tastes great. >.< Can you say sabotage?

So just as I am embracing my size 22 (stretch mind you) jeans they are beginning to get tight. I've decided that I am not buying new jeans unless they have to be a smaller size. Good goal right? I figure it would be nice to fit into the size 20s that I have - minus the crowbar that it would take to get me into them right now. This is my goal for the next 2 months - to lose enough weight (approx. 20 lbs.) to fit in the 20s and have them be lose (or as close to it as possible) once again. I can do this. I want to do this. I need support to do this. Because I know losing the weight will help with my sleeping problems, will get me in shape and make it so I don't feel like dying after being on stage for 10 minutes dancing. I'd like to not lose my breath and be able to sing the song all the way through while dancing. The whole reason I got into the worship team for the kids was someone thought my voice was good. But with the dancing and singing at the same time - there is no prayer of my being able to do both at the same time right now. So I have two goals - drop 20 in 2 months and to get into shape to be able to sing and dance at same time. Hmmm is that anything like walking and chewing gum at the same time....seeing as I have problems walking sometimes this might be hard. Oh wait thats only where stairs are involved. ;) Sorry a little humor at my own wxpense. I can trip up the stairs - they hate me. lol

Well I am off to exercise now and see hwo that goes. As you can see from my ticker - no weight lost. I'm starting over and its 80 lbs not 50 lbs that I'm losing this year. Hope all is well for those of you still reading this and Happy New Year.... a little late. :)
