Checking in.....

So today was a weigh in day.......not great, but not bad. I am down, so that's a plus! :) Last Friday I weighed in at 214. Today I was 213.6, so a loss of .4 lbs. Like I said, not great....but not bad. I'm gonna take it! Any loss is better than gain any day :)  My biggest thing is the exercising. Well, and the eating better.

I was doing really great on the eating part, and now all of the sudden my appetite is reverting back to wanting all the crappy food. And I don't even mean fast food type of crappy food. For me it's more of the sweet's. I get a sweet tooth at times that starts to take over my life. I'm one of those types of people who starts to crave "something" but can't seem to figure out what that something is, so I try everything in the process to figure it out. What does that mean for my waist line? CRAP!! I try so hard to just not eat a bunch of sweets, but of course the harder I try not to then the more I want them. Yes I know, don't deny yourself cuz then you'll bing. I know I know! The problem is though, again, half the time I don't know what sweet it is that I want. So I walk around all day trying tons of different sweets in search of the one my body wants. Gah!!! Drives me nuts!

As for the exercising......well I suck at it! Just tonight at dinner I told everyone (Brannen's sister & nephew are visiting) that I was going to talk the baby & go for a walk after dinner, did anyone want to go with me. I knew Brannen wouldn't want to, but thought maybe the kids would. Well they didn't feel up to it so what happened in the end??  I DIDN'T GO!! :( Damn! Now I'm not saying I don't get any exercise in at all, cuz I do. First off I'm lifting a baby up & down all day long. I am now working 3 days a week, and that in itself is a workout, as the office is up a huge flight of strairs. So those 3 days a week I'm definitely getting my stair climbing in. I'm usually up & down those damn stairs at least 3 times each time I'm there, which is good! I hate stair climbing machines at the gym, but if I can do regular stairs & not have to think about it then I do great. Just need to get myself motivated to start walking on my off days.

So now that I've rambled on, and haven't made much sense to anyone other than myself. I'm going to head to bed. My babe, and baby are already there :)
