Jamie's Weight Loss Diaries....#18 & #19

Thursday, June 09, 2011


***Thursday is Weigh In Day...I weigh myself ONCE a week. I can't jump on the scale every day, all times of the day, when I feel fat, before a date....too much on my medicated brain. lol! Once a week is good for me. I'm a born again scale person. I'm just now embracing the scale. I avoid it all thru my teens and twenties....***

+3 lbs

Up to 221lbs

(18 lbs lost since 12/30/2010)




I know that I haven't been keeping up with the Weight Loss Diaries....I didn't post for all of May. Trust me nothing happened...I lost 1 lb, then gain it back but June is a different story so far.

I jumped on the scale June 2 and discovered I gain three pounds. I know what it was too. I was eating out and consuming too many bad calories in a day. My kids got out of school for the summer and my plan for them to go to summer camp and me work a temp job I found fell through. Another summer with the kids. This is the summer #4 out of 6. I was disappointed. I need, want to work! I don't see how people just don't wanna work! I got relatives like that, bums, borrowing money, living on lil' checks...I don't understand it. Anyway, I drowned my sorrow in McFrappes and $.50 wings at Wing Street.:(

And those three pounds pissed me off. So I got myself together for next week and getting this weight off.

-4 lbs

Down to 217 lbs

(22 lbs lost since 12/30/2010)



Then I lost four pounds...this week. I simply didn't eat out. Plus, I bought some romaine lettuce and spinach on sale. I love veggies, I should be a vegetarian but I love, LOVE chicken. lol! I've cooked every meal, had a snack when I got hungry under 100 calories to keep me from binging, and drinking water, water and water.

Kids been pissed too. lol! They loved to eat out. My younger twin boy, asked could we go to the Chinese buffet tonight. Sir...that would be a no. That is a $25 meal for three people that includes  kids' buffets and me drinking water and putting fried donuts in my purse.:) I'll pass...we can go to the movies, or another place to eat, or how about this.....go to the grocery store.

I can stretch $25 into a week's worth of grocery. I know single people and full families that can't do that. *primps in the mirror*

Still slacking on that workout-ing. smh. Its been sicken hot here. But excuses are the tools of the incompetent so let me get it together.
