My first "eat day", hurray!

Last night I ran through the Taco Bell drive-throu to get my husband some dinner and on my way home the wafting smells of his dinner were SO tempting and I don't even really like what he orders! Taco Bell has always been my favourite fast food restaurant and it's become the one thing I crave the most when I am starving, drinking alcohol, or what I always respond with when my husband makes me decide where we are going to eat. But do not worry, I resisted eating even a bite of his food and it was a little difficult.

The last few days the chefs have been making special dishes for the few people who have been working this week at it has been so hard to pass up on creamy-homemade alfredo (my favourite pasta) and Asian bbq london broil with yakisoba and salad with cranberry vinaigrette (one of my favourite dressings) the last two days. I am so excited to see what they have prepared for us tomorrow {my stomach trembles with anticipation!}.

I weighed in this morning at 165.4 lbs making for a grand total of 4.6 lbs lost!

All Over Again

I stepped on the scale last night and I was horrified at the numbers I read, it had been weeks since I had stepped on a scale and I had made very poor diet choices. I am currently at my heaviest ever; 170 lbs {only 1 lb more than my previous high, but nonetheless depressing}. With the strongest of determination I am starting off good. All this week I am still working despite the fact that there is no school because there are still lots of things done, but seeing as there are no students that means there are little to no food distractions. {Hurrah!}

Rough Day

As the titles states, it has been a rough day. I pretty much felt like a failure at everything  you know how you have those days? On top of it all I have been battling a cold that just lingers like bad company. This evening though; after sitting down with a warm mug of tea {which always gets cold before I finish it because I forget that it is sitting there}, a blankie, chatting with a good friend, and spending some time online looking at Xyngular and Mary Kay {speaking of which I am working on making my Pinterest boards for both of these better so you should check them out}, I have been inspired again!

Now, when I say things are getting bad, I mean they were getting bad. I put chocolate chips in my dry bowl of cheerios every morning until my cheerios ran out and then I just kept eating the chips! I have decided that as soon as I get rid of this blasted cold I will exercise, even if it means walking outside in the cold {and wearing layers of clothes to ensure I don't get sick again}. And as soon as the Christmas break officially starts for students I will resume my weight loss and healthy eating habits by starting another Ignite week. I think it will be the best time because there will not be loads and loads of unhealthy and tempting things to eat lying around all day and I will have more time to make sure I am staying active.

I haven't told my husband yet, but I am really going to start working on him to be more active too. He decided to a do a bit of a P90X workout the other day and he complained for the following 4 days because he felt so sore from the immense amount of push-ups and stuff he did. I want to start doing more things together even if he is capable of doing twice as much as I am.
