Shakin It Up

I've made a decision. I'm changing the blog. Don't be too alarmed, you will still be able to find out what is going on with the monkeys, I just need to do something a little different for myself.

As you all probably know, I am trying my darnedest to lose weight. I need a little accountability so I am going to try posting my weight, what I eat and my exercise, everyday! I'm sure it won't be the most exciting reading but I think if I know that other people are reading what I have done that day, I might be more inclined to do better. If anyone wants to post their day in the comments, please feel free to do so. There is nothing like a little commiserating to help you get through a rough spot.

Ok, so here I go. I can't believe I am going to do this.
Weight: 204.5 (I have actually gained a pound since our last weigh in on the 28th)

Breakfast: Whole Wheat Rice Krispies, lowfat cheese stick, V8 Fusion
Snack: Vita Brownie
Lunch: Lean Cuisine and Special K Bar
Snack: Banana
Dinner: Turkey hot dog, bun, baked Cheetos and 2 peanut butter girl scout cookies.

Exercise: None, Nada, Zilch. This is the area I am really struggling with. I know that I NEED to exercise but I just have not been able to get myself moving. I am planning to go to the YMCA tomorrow evening, of course I have been planning to do that for the last 2 weeks and have yet to go. Maybe since I've told everyone on here that I am going to go, I will.

I'm going to go watch the Biggest Loser now...Good night :)

  1. Lori-
    I have some clothes for you, if that helps. And I'm getting back into the exercise routine as well, so we can be exercise buddies if you want. Just returned from So Carolina, where the weather STUNK (thanks, Susan!!).

    Hang in there, we can do this together.

  2. Lori,
    You are a brave woman and I'm proud of you. Good luck with the weight loss. I know how hard it is because I've done it dozens of times. And here I am carrying around all that extra weight again.
    I did get some exercise the past two days. Not much, but some. I worked out in the yard yesterday for about an hour and a half and I took a walk today.
    Jerri, the weather may have stunk in S.C., but at least you got to go to a book festival!
    Oh, and Lori, those clothes Jerri is giving you were probably mine once upon a time. Be sure and ask her for that plaid flannel shirt.

  3. And when you get that plaid shirt, give it to me!
