Halloween candy

Halloween candy got the best of me this last weekend. Last week I did the abs and sculpt on Monday. I must have run the dogs Tuesday. Wed was a bike class, and Thursday was Camp 24. Friday and Sat I didn't do anything. Thursday night I did play football against Barbarian's team. I did really well eating until the Halloween candy came out. I am still down to 160. I am really thinking about giving up meat but Sunday's. I have read about a raw food diet that really goes along with a lot of the Word of Wisdom. I just sometimes feel at a loss of what I should be eating. I hope to really study and decide what I can make for my family that is healthy and that they will eat.
Mentally I think I have turned a corner. I really feel like I can over come some of my depressing, frustrating days. I had a good talk/cry with Jeff and I fell a little lighter just knowing he is there for me. I see what I can be and have more hope than I have in a long time that I might be that person someday. I need to follow through with my children. I think that will some of the problem. I know that most of my bad days come from my own choices. I just need to choose differently.

Krispy Kream

YESSSS!!!
I passed up Krispy Kream doughnuts last night at the YW activity. Brother Rallison, the sweet man, bought them for us after we cleaned up some branches for him, and I passed on them. He even had the old fashioned kind!! I also found this in my journal from 1990. I was 20...
34 1/2" hip (4" down from bone)
19 1/2" each thigh (5 1/2" down from croch)
28 1/2" waist (garment line)
33" bust
9 1/2" arm
13" calf
8" ankle
37" upper thighs all the way around
I'll have to look at what I measured the other day.

Ortho appointments

(This was 2 weeks ago on a Tuesday)
I took Samantha to the orthodontist today and finished the last 5 bites of her frosty. I was happy though that I didn't order one for myself. I came home and had Chinese. I ended up running the dogs with Samantha last night so I took today off. She missed her X country workout and I thought I might as well double up and take today off. I am down to 161. I am sore today and feel good that I worked so hard yesterday. I had some weird pain in my lower torso that really hurt on Sat night while I was at the baby shower. They were sharp. I just wonder if that is my bodies way of telling me my period is coming. I remember feeling like that before. But with the birth control I use, I don't have an actual period. These were more painful than I remember, but short and went away. All is good. I went to the dentist yesterday and I need to floss a little better in certain places, but no cavities. I am planning on replacing my bridges soon though. $6000. I do have $1500 insurance a year. So I think in 2010-2011 I will have it done over Christmastime and New Years.

Good weekend

I had a great weekend this last week. I went to a babyshower and didn't indulge in all the sweets. I went to another open house last night for the Mason's and held strong there too. I didn't exercise on Sat but did fairly well for the week. I am down almost 2 lbs. I have already gone to the abs class and power sculpt today. Tomorrow I will probably run the dogs. I have been still trying to beef up the vegetables. Today I would like to get in 5. V-8juice helps. I love tomatoes too and the garden has produced a lot. I am on a roll and I hope that I can keep it up!

Weight

I'm not a big believer in checking my weight, but I feel to keep track of how I am doing I am going to weight in everyday. I weighed 164 yesterday. Today 163. I would like to be 135. I did great yesterday with the vegetables and didn't have one treat and ate eggs for breakfast. I didn't get a workout in but did go up and down the stairs a lot putting away food storage. Doesn't really count, but I was fairly active. I went to the doctor about my aching leg problem. He said I definitely have a problem and will need surgery. I need to wear compression hose for 6 weeks first. I need to find out about our insurance and get right on it so that it can be done before the end of the year. I think that would be awesome to fix. I can't stand being in the car for long periods of time because of my leg. Today my goal is to workout, which I already did, and then have 5 vegetables, and no treats.

Last Night

Yesterday I did fairly well. The only downfall was one bite of a dessert at girls night out. It was a chocolate chip pizza thing. I don't think I got in all of my vegetables either. I got one at dinner. I think that was it. I did have the whole wheat hot breatfast. Last night and the night before I haven't slept that well. I was suppose to go to the gym this morning but couldn't find my membership card. I went back to sleep after everyone was off to school until 9:40. I need to do a bunch of things today but the goal for today again is 4 vegetables and no treats and at least a 30 min workout.
