Camping Anyone?

I went camping this weekend with my fiance and our friend Randy. I had a great time there at Holly Recreation. The only downer was our SUNBURN!!!! Holy crap.......I can has sunburn bad!!!!

My face hurts, shoulders (extreme pain), and my back....(lil bit) it's all because we did not wear any sunscreen!!! So I guess we kinda deserved it. It still sucks. Saturday was the day we went to the beach.....Heron Beach. We spent hours in the water. We come back so burnt and when it was time to sleep.........we couldn't! If we laid on our backs, we would screech from the pain. Our sides were the same way. When I woke up, it hurt so bad from being dry!!! Randy was putting the Aloe After Sun Lotion on me and I almost threw up from the pain :(. It'll get to a tan soon though. I just feel bad because I can't shower yet lol. The water pressure will hurt too much :(.

A week from tomorrow is my first day of teaching :) I am sooooooooooooo excited to teach a class. I will be teaching 8th grade math for 20 days. I'm so excited. I'll be putting together my last minute plans this week and heading into my classroom to put up the finishing touches.

Diet news: This weekend went really well with WW. I do have to say that I was estimating my point values and I had the full 35 for the weekend to use up. Today, however, when I got home, I was hungry! It might be because of stress here at home...not sure. I ate and I hope I don't gain for tomorrow's weigh in. I feel really good about the weigh in too. We'll see. Wish me luck!

About 1 Month..

Ok so I've been doing Weight Watchers for a very good 6 weeks now, but I've been on plan for 5 of those weeks. I'm thankful for this way of eating because it truly shows weight loss. I weighed in this morning and I was 186.5 so the food I ate a lot of is coming off. This week's focus is on staying at my points and adding exercise to it.

My real struggle will come this weekend when I go camping!!!! I haven't been camping in years!!!!! I'm so excited....

So, I stumbled upon this really cool application that FaceBook has called MyDiet. It runs from this website and it's really cool. Let me tell you a little bit about it. The features are the same as any type of diet forum you probably have gone to. The real difference here was that it TRACKS WEIGHT WATCHER POINTS and calories!!! How great is that?! I've been trying to find a points tracker online website (free by the way) forever. It's really accurate too! I suggest you looking at it...you know you want to!

Blah

That's how I feel right about now...just blah. Since my journal focuses on my diet and what I do on an every day basis, I feel that I should talk about what's been going on with my diet.

I have been eating everything that is unhealthy for a person to eat. It's awful that I'm eating this way. I get a little bit of cash in my life and I spend it on food! ugh......

I've been off track for exactly one week. Is that the end of my diet?? NO! I'm getting back on track in the morning. I know I can do it and lose the weight. Weight Watchers was working so well...why did I get off track for a week? Oh ya, I was graduating and it was the end of the school year so a bunch of parties popped up. That's still no excuse!

Well, back on track in the morning and I'm really looking forward to it. I weighed this morning and it was 187 so I'm still hovering around 186 .........ugh.....time to lose!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Need to Get Back on Track

The last weekend of school has been horrible, eating wise. I graduated, had student's last day of school and plus my graduation party! Eating was horrible!!! I'm not even back on track today..ugh! Tomorrow is a clean slate and I'll get back on it. I feel weird not being on it though.

I need to make small changes to my lifestyle. I'm sick of diets and having them control my life.

Oh yea, I'm a teacher :) Feels so good!

A Quickie!

Okay, so this will be quick.

I've been waaaaaay too busy to make a video and I'm late on videos as of Monday. I did weigh in and I'm exactly the same as I was last week: 186 lbs :)

So yay for maintaining!!!!

However, today was our Mexican Town field trip for the 6th grade (spanish field trip) so we had food :) Good food...and then I had pizza for dinner so instead of my usual Friday or Saturday night splurge for dinner, it was taken for all day today. I know I'll be retaining water weight because I already feel bloated and crap!! But, come Monday I hope to maintain or lose 1 lb. Wish me luck!!!!

I did well for the choices that were put in front of me today so I'm happy.

Goodnight :)

Weigh In Day

OMG!! I lost 3 lbs this week :)

I am now 186 lbs :)

Today went so well. I was hungry when I left the house for the mall, but I curbed my cravings while I went shopping for a bathing suit top. I will show my side view because I have stitches on my chest from a skin biopsy. It's really cute though.



I would show the front view but like I said, I have something there lol. Anyways.....I had fun with Randy and my fiance at the park today and at the mall. My diet went very well. I ended up with a total of 25 points so I'm right on target :) Here's a cute pic of us at the park for a fair :).


Well it's time for bed because the 3 1/2 day weekend is over :( I go back to school tomorrow for student teaching. On Wednesday I'll be at the Middle School observing the math classes so I'm really looking forward to that :)

Have a great week!!

Diet Update

Well things have been going extremely well! I am losing weight!! So happy about that.

It seems like on Sundays I get really depressed.....it's really weird.

So tomorrow is my weigh in day :) Wish me luck!

Right about now is when I stop my diet and binge on food. Well, I have not found that I want to do that because I'm eating all the foods I love in moderation. I keep having these really good days where I'll be like, no I can't have a Taquito today (from 7-11) because I had one yesterday. I like doing that because that's what healthy people do. They have extremely good food in moderation.

I had saved my 35 extra points for the grad party on Friday night and we ended up having pizza :) I weighed on Friday morning just to see what I was and then on Sat morning I was lower than Friday :) That pizza had nothing on me!! I am doing so well :)

Although, the past 2 days I have been extremely hungry!!! I think it's from Friday night's pizza and crackers....... I'm handling it very well by going all the way up to my points (26) instead of the 20-23 I usually go to. So, I'm still doing well.

I hope tomorrow's weigh in goes even better :)
