it's all about the GOOD news!

short and sweet: 
Friday weigh in:  200.0
woohooo!!

Today's 10k - 5 miles, 59:13 - UNDER AN HOUR!!! 

I'm SO over the moon on both counts!

Talked to hubby about OA meeting next week.  He vows that will make it next week.  So now I've got backup.  And I will make it. 

Saw a few people at church today who made such positive comments on how I've changed - that felt good, no doubt about it!!

Also got to go on a motorcycle ride which always bouys my mood!

Now I'm headed to bed to try and get the week off on the right - and well rested - foot!!

Oh ya, and I signed up for a triathalon!!! 

Definately a gold star day.

How was everyone else's weekend - good, bad, neutral?

TTFN,
LauraLynne

Wow!! Great job on the loss and the run. =) Sounds like you had a good weekend. Mine was pretty average - busy. But I did manage to eat right even though we had a graduation party that we attended. Huge for me!

LauraLynne,
I just read your first blogs. I think they are the most informative, makes me get to know you. I can so relate to the part where you talked about eating it to get rid of it. Something like that, that is exactly what I do. Once I start eating something unhealthy, I figure I might as well finish it now, so I won't have it in the house later. Great logic, may as well eat 5000 calories now instead of spread it out over a few days.
Anyway, I just finished a marathon,(still very sore), and do triathlons, also. I love biking! It is so social for me. What is your favorite of the three?

Today starts no sugar

This feels harder than no candy and no chips. And it started by throwing the oreos in the GARBAGE. And not the trash at my house - no, these went into the trash at the bus stop. Bye bye. (I'm imagining some homeless dude chowing down on his amazing find...) Now I need to grocery shop and fill my house with fruits and veggies! TTFN, LauraLynne

that little voice in my head is an a**hole

I haven't been as heavy as I am now (250) in almost 2 decades.  I forgot how hard it is.  Physically and mentally.  And I'm spiraling lately.  It's been so very hard.  Everything has been hard.  I've been struggling with my weight - the pure numbers - my clothes, my ability to do simple daily activities, my self loathing, my eating.  Everything.  I feel like this literally effects every single aspect of my life.  And I HATE it.  H.A.T.E.  This weekend was especially brutal on me.  I am a retired motorcycle racer and now I work for a track time organization and ride during their events.  My race suit was custom made about 15 years ago.  It still has lots of life left in it.  But it was custom made for 200 pound me and doesn't even come close to fitting 250 pound me.  So I finally caved and ordered another custom made suit.  I send in all my measurements and waited.  There were some hiccups and dela...

Time to come clean - and start blogging again with NEWS!

I've been avoiding the blogging world - for a couple reasons.  My eating has been horrible.  Well, maybe not horrible but definately not brag-worthy or blog-worthy.  I've been embarassed at how much I've regressed back into old eating habits. The other reason is I've been keeping a secret but it's time to come clean.  I've been gaining weight - only a little - and with my doctor's full permission.  As of today, I'm 16weeks 4 days pregnant, and this one's here to stay!  I'm excited.  And nervous. And sick as a dog with morning sickness.  I've used all of the above as an excuse to jump off the wagon (and load it with junk food to drag around with me all day).  I've had chips and candy and sugar - and not in small quantities.  I now weight 205.  Up from 190.  But holding steady and fully aware of the changes I need to make - again. Mostly my problem is that I have morning sickness 24 hours a day.  It's like really bad mot...
