Happy Monday friends! This week I am lucky to have good friends, and love, always surrounding me. I’m really lucky that whenever I need a little pick me up, there is always someone there to help.
On Saturday I tweeted that I was frustrated because in over a month my weight has only dropped 3 lbs. Yes, I know, I had surgery and all that jazz, but it still gets confusing and a little bit frustrating.
Thankfully, I had a friend tweet me back and tell me to remember that:
A) I could’ve gained 3lbs, but I didn’t.
B) That the more I dwell, the more likely I am that the “food demons” will take over.
This was exactly what I needed to hear at that moment.
Yesterday, was my weigh-in, I weighed in at… 130.0lbs. This is a 0 gain and a 0 loss. So, I broke even. We can call that a win, right?
Just keep swimming, Just keep swimming…
I’m honestly a little bummed about my 0lbs loss, I’m doing everything the same as before, but not seeing the same results. But, I know if I keep this attitude, instead of switching it to something positive, I will be taken over by food demons, and I will gain weight. #Facts
My Weekly Goals Are:
- Drink my H20, nothing tastes better and nothing is better for me!
- Don’t be tempted by the sugary drinks and take out menus at work!
- #PlankADay everyday
- Get physically and mentally back into training mode.
Someone else made yesterday pretty nice too. This guy:
He came home soaking wet because of the insane thunder storms.
I thought he went to Wegmans to buy dinner, instead, he brought home a picnic for us- just like we used to have. We’ve now been together for 2 years 10 months, and have lived together for 2 years. It took us most of that time to figure out how to eat healthy and still both be happy. But sometimes, taking a step backwards, is nice.
Pizza Rolls, Blue Newt Wine and Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Chicken
Oh, how I’ve missed you, pizza rolls.
If we still did this on a regular basis, it would be bad, but since this was the first time in almost a year, I think we’re okay.
We’re going to open a restaurant called “Fried Food and Fine Wine”, it will sadly be a hit.
And there was Cherry Cheesecake in the refrigerator.
How’s your weekend going? Did you take shortcuts?
Do you have the Monday Blues?
What are your food demons?

) SPA LOVE!
Thank you!!
Hey it all about portions so you can eat that food every once and a while. You are working hard and I am so proud of you for this week’s attitude. Those goals look freaking great!
Portions and moderation really are key! My goals are something that really keep me on track, without them I lose sight of the important stuff real quick.
Don’t get discouraged by numbers. Just work on feeling good and living healthy. You can do it!
I realized I took a shortcut when washing dishes haha, because I knew I’d be using it again. Anyway, have a fabulous week lovely! SPA love xo
I hate doing dishes, so I totally understand the need to take a shortcut with them. haha.
You’re doing great girl!!! And I love your goals! Plankaday is awesome!!!
Thanks! You were definitely a part of the PlankADay inspiration! I just had to wait to be cleared by the doctor!
Awwww!!!! That makes my day that you said that! I love to inspire others!! Thanks for telling me that!!!
Congrats on the Anniversary & what a fun way to celebrate! Spending time together means more than “things”
Great perspective on the weigh-in, staying the same is better than gaining! Good luck with the goals! I need to get in some “goal action” of my own soon!
We aren’t really “things” people, don’t get me wrong, I love getting presents, but spending time together means a lot more to me.
Aww that’s so cute! What an adorable little date
