Meme's skinny jeans journal

[Auntmeme]

JUne and the beginning of another month. Today has been good, keeping to plan and cleaning the house Tuesday did not fair well as had mil b-day dinner, which had 2 side choices - peas or noodles, neither considered low carb and of course had to have cake, they made me do it

Wed was great. Stuck to plan & walked 2.25 miles, finally.

Yesterday was good until arrived homle late, after working for neighbor all day doing mindless crap, only again if he desperately needs help. Ate dinner at 8ish, starving and angry with dh so of course ate 2 sl of pizza and no exercise. I can feel the fat clinging to my thighs & belly, yikes where is my will power )

So after 4 days in a new month I only have 2 cheat free days, better not keep this rate up or I'll never lose more.

On to finish cleaning & make chicken dinner.

Wow it's the end of the weekend already. I did great. Yahoo! Will check scale tomorrow am, let's keep fingers crossed is everybody listening?????

Walked a little over 4 miles yesterday on dm treadmill, I was feeling the vibes from my wishers friends. Truly that is what made me last so long and the great high paced cd I listened to. In the end I made it in 63 minutes now I just have to keep that pace for another 9 miles? yikes, I need to really train harder. With 6 months to go I have a good shot.

I'm adding 2 more cheat free days and let's hope I can change my clippie tomorrow.

I'm listening, MeMe, and I say WAY TO GO! You're walking the walk! I know that question: "will I be able to go 13 miles?" and the answer is YES, YOU WILL! YES I WILL, TOO!! But, here's the kicker: we can't stop training. We have to want it, we have to go get it, we can never turn your back on it and then we'll succeed! GO, MEME!!

Good luck with the scale tomorrow.

Hugs,
Erin

Monday am and it's ok. Made it through sunday and the scale was good, not great but 1 lb loss. So I need one more to claim a new clippie, hopefully next week. I'm also buying a 5lb bag of sugar so I can check my scale. My dm scale was nicer than mine.

b- mock danish, coffee w/ cream
l- ?
d- will be meatloaf

Need to run errands so catch you later.

Thanks for stopping by Erin When I walked on the tm saturday I specifically thought of you. I could hear you pushing me to the end. I could picture you doing your 4 miles. Thanks for the motivation!

 

[lulu201]

Pound, Good-Bye! You are never welcome around MeMe again!

What's the walking plan for today? I'm going to do two miles; haven't decided if it'll be inside or out. My allergies would definitely prefer "in."

Have a good one, MeMe.

Erin

 

[DoeWDW]

YAY!!! Meme's lost a pound!!! Glad you and the scale are happy with each other!! Must be all that walking - you go, girl!!

I walked last night. Erin and now you are inspiring me! We're gonna conquer that half-marathon!! Keep up the training, Meme, and we can all celebrate our success together next January!

Have a wonderful day!!

 

[Auntmeme]

Thanks girls

Walked 1.7 yesterday around neighborhood, today will be longer!

Made meatloaf for dinner lastnight and substituted haf ingredients with lc stuff, dh doesn't know the difference. Also ate sauerkraut, coffee w/cream. No snacks.

Today
b- coffee w/cream denver omelet w/ mostly egg whites, lc ket & 1 sl lc toast. Trying the Baker lc bread, and it is much better than atkins.

Plan to stick to plan and walk.

 

[Auntmeme]

Well the plan to stick to plan did not work out. After busting my butt in the garden all day I was too exhausted to cook & ordered chinese- yikes! Ate a few crunchy noodles, who can resist my main meal was ch veggies w/ honey roasted pork, due to the sweetness I'm sure I was not too lc for the day so I won't count as a cheat free day.

Worked in the garden yesterday too, this has to be considered cross-training as my entire body aches in the evening. We now have a small pond & garden swing, what a couple of bucks & hard work will do
Yesterday meals were on target and today is shaping up.

b- mock danish, coffee w/cream

Wow, MeMe! You're walking AND you're gardening! That's terrific! Please tell me you didn't dig the pond yourself ! I'm getting on my treadie today and will think of you doing over four miles yesterday. You are my inspiration, honey!

Have a good day,
Erin

contemplating walking today or waiting till tomorrow. It's a little chilly out so a walk would be perfect for the weather if the rain holds off. I should do both today & tomorrow but my brain does not think that way

 

[Auntmeme]

It's been days since I posted and the weekend did me in

It was my b-day on satu so we headed for the beach to walk the boards. The fries & chips w/salsa were not on my plan. And sunday with tom I had to have a ho-ho. Anyway no loss for me But no gain either

Walked 2 miles last night and stayed on plan throughout the day. Today I will do the same!

 

[Auntmeme]

Well I did not walk on tuesday but had a huge walk yesterday. 4.3 miles but ate french fries & 5 cookies Gain 1 lose 1 so I guess I'm even

Did stay on plan tuesday & today. So I'll count 2 more cheat free days yeah But-there is always a but - I'm heading for the beach on monday for 3 days and we're doing a bbq for dear old dad on sunday. Can I make it through all those days? I think not, I'll admit it now We must walk walk walk and stay on plan till sunday. I'll do my best

Off to the eye doc for measuring - in 1 week I should wake up and be able to read the clock with no glasses or contacts - still unbeleivable for me since I've worn glasses since 1st grade I'm a little apprehensive but have full trust in this doc.

 

[nancyj_pa]

Hi MeMe,
How are you doing? I read that you're going to have the vision surgery. That's really great. Both my sons had it and now see 20-20 without glasses or contacts. They highly recommend it.

How about this weather? It's either rainy or so humid it's difficult to be outdoors. I'll try to ride my bike this evening when it cools down.

Have a great time at the shore. We're heading down about the 2nd week of July after DD has her baby.

Talk to you soon. Nancy J

 

[DoeWDW]

Hi MeMe!!

I just caught up on your journal! I hope you're still walking! Burning off those calories means that your body will be a little more forgiving of the extra carbs!

I hope you're having a bright and beautiful Sunday!!

 

[Auntmeme]

Wow it's been over a week since I posted. I was down the shore and then had eye surgery. The good news is the lasik surgery worked and it is truly amazing

The bad news is I ate all types of junk and gained a pound I probably should count myself as lucky

I'm back today with a real vengance, I must loss weight before my next shore vacation in August

Walked over 4 miles yesterday and so far only cofee w/ cream.

 

[DoeWDW]

How exciting that your lasik went well!! I can't even imagine waking up to vision that is lots better! Congratulations!!

If I were having eye surgery, I'd be awfully stressed out before-hand - maybe that's what happened at the beach. Don't worry about it. You sound like you're ready to jump back on the healthy living wagon - good for you!

Your walking amazes me! I'm going to have to add some distance to my walks!!

Have a great day, MeMe!!

 

[lulu202]

Good morning, MeMe! Lasik surgery? Cool! You are more daring than I, I have to say. I've heard only wonderful things about the surgery, though. Congrats!

You asked where I was walking. Well, when I walked at the park I was Warminster's new community park. They have a 2.3 mile trail you can walk. Today I'm going to Warwick park. Tomorrow, who knows? You are so inspiring to me with all that you've been doing--your example helps me to "just do it!"

Have a healthy day!
Erin

 

[Auntmeme]

Well hello July!

I hope this month is better for me than last, with the eatting plan. I have been walking and think I need to add some othter type of exercise for increased weight loss, as I thought I would be further down the scale The good news is I feel healthier and some clothes do fit better, still where did all this celulite come from?????at least with my tan it doesn't appear as bad. This is the best tan I've had since college

Hi Erin thanks for stopping in. Lasik surgery was great, vvery weird but overall highly recommended!

Today I am headed out to walk and then to the movies with dmil. And you know what the movies mean, popcorn have to do it, so today will not be cheat free. Not a great way to start a new month????

 

[DoeWDW]

MeMe, if you've been eating on plan for the most part, I wouldn't worry about the popcorn. Enjoy some for me!!

Hope your weekend is filled with and !!
