Tracy's Journal-The Saga and Drama of It All!

[pettyone]

Good Morning!!

I didn't have alot to post about yesterday, with it being Ash Wednesday, my food choices (or lack thereof-fasting) certainly kept me OP. I did manage to get in 20 minutes on the TM while DD was at her swimming lesson...thank goodness!

I've got a good feeling about this week's weigh-in on Saturday.
I have yet to identify how I can completely blow it between now & then...my meals are planned through Friday night & there is no junk in the house, so I think I'm "good to go" (not much of a vending machine snacker at work)...we won't even talk about next week, yet (going to be tough)!!

I decided to give up oatmeal for Lent. Just kidding!!

Have a super day!!

Jen--

I don't think I ever said that I "LIKED" oatmeal...I just "TOLERATE" it...truth be told, I'd much prefer a sausage, egg & cheese biscuit!!!

Hi Tracy,

Gee, Lent is going to be tough for you. Sacrificing oatmeal is such a big committment. I am not sure how you do it.

I'm sending for tomorrow's weighin.

Take care,
Beth

Thanks a bunch for the !!

Well, I've finally discovered that I'm an "emotional" eater (never paid attention before). I had a crappy day yesterday, nothing specific, just a black cloud over my dear head...

I managed to "fall over" a bag of peanut M&Ms yesterday...ate 'em...liked 'em...took the lumps in my WW points for them (6!).

After work, I got stuck in the mother of all traffic jams, which completely knocked me off schedule for the evening, so DD & I went to O'Charley's...I had chips & salsa, a baked potato & a salad...I took the lumps in my Flex points for that.

I used 37.5 points yesterday, earned no AP...all in all, it was BANNER DAY!!

************************************

I had oatmeal for breakfast today, veggies are for lunch, cheese pizza tonight for dinner...oh, and I am going to the gym for some tonight...GOTTA GET BACK ON TRACK...right now, I could give a rat's you-know-what about veggies & cheese pizza...I'd like to have a chocolate cake!! I won't have a chocolate cake, but truthfully, that's what I want!! GOTTA GET BACK ON TRACK...really want cake...GOTTA GET BACK ON TRACK...really want ice cream....AAAARRRGGHHHHH!!

************************************

The struggle continues...apparently, the black cloud isn't finished with me yet...

Thanks for listening to my rant.

 

[sarahsmom73]

WHAT??!!!! You ate what for breakfast!!!

 

[pettyone]

WHAT??!!!! You ate what for breakfast!!!

I know, I know...

Can't seem to give up the oatmeal...so much for my Lenten sacrifice...

 

[sarahsmom73]

Happy Sunday! Enjoy the oatmeal!

 

[pettyone]

Check out the new clippie & the new ticker-counter thingee!!!

I'm on !!!

Today should be OP...I did WATP before work to get the day started...I think I'm going to head to the Y at lunch for some strength training, & then a bit of cardio while DD is swimming tonight.

I stayed OP all weekend, I was motivated after my weigh in on Saturday...woo-hoo, down 5 lbs since I joined WISH!

Oh, I did post a thank you out on the general WISH board to everyone who has encouraged/inspired me...I know I couldn't have done it without all of you!

Have a great day!!!

Way to go Tracy! Keep up the good work!

 

[keenercam]

Congrats, Tracy!! Looking forward to my very own little 5 lb clippie someday!

 

[pettyone]

Afternoon greetings all!!

I skipped the Happy Meal last night & opted for a WW pizza instead...I'm really digging those!! Yesterday was absolutely OP, got in my WATP DVD, strength training at lunch & 20 min on the TM last night!! Go me!!

Today, I've had you-know-what for breakfast, a WW lunch & a bag of popcorn so far. I'm such a slacker that I didn't plan anything for dinner tonight, so we may just have beanie weenies...mac n'cheese...french fries & chicken...something quick, painless and full o'fat!!

Hopefully I can encourage myself to go to the gym (I have 13 minutes to decide)...I really want to go home & sit on my duff, though!!

I hope everyone has a good evening!!

<----needs to just go to the gym, right?

SO...O Queen of the Oatmeal.... DId ya make it to the gym?!
