Monday Weigh-In

I didn't have a very good week diet and fitness-wise. The previous week was phenomenal - I lost 6 lbs. - so this week I kept allowing myself to cheat for just "one more day". I kept thinking I could make up for it by the time "Weigh-In" came around, but I was wrong.

Well, Weigh-In day is here, and I ended up gaining 2 pounds last week. I'm surprised it wasn't more since I am fighting a cold and I had to deal with some dating-related rejection last week. I know those are just excuses, so it's time to get off my butt and do better this week. Wish me luck...

Monday Weigh-In

I had a pretty good week health-wise: I walked home from work every day and did my dance/exercise thing on Saturday and Sunday at my apartment. I did have a few slip-ups on the diet (I caved in and ordered Chinese food once) but I did my best to stay within my Weight Watchers point limit.

My efforts definitely paid off, because I lost 6 pounds! Now keep in mind that I’m still RE-losing the 25 pounds I lost last year (and gained back this year) – but after 2 weeks I’m already halfway there.

My next goal is to get back to the gym…

Kailyn, Me, and Maddie on my couch - Saturday night. What a bunch of drunks!!

Friday Weigh In

Fatter - and I don't want to talk about it. Will touch base next week.

Bloated and Cranky ...

Tomorrow afternoon I'll be back on an Amtrak train, and will return to NYC by early evening. And not a moment too soon - I've been eating myself into a coma. I have been to McDonald's (twice), Arby's (!), Burger King - and various others. Furthermore, I ate huge meals with my family on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day - and the Mistress Maddie had me over to the ancestral manor on Friday. OMG - Maddie's mother sent me home with TWO boxes of her gourmet cookies/sweets, and they didn't last 24 hours!

Anywhoo - I'm feeling bloated and cranky, but I hope to turn things around once I get back to the big city.

Back To Baby Carrots...

I'm back from Thanksgiving, and I'm happy to report I didn't completely lose control of my diet while in Pennsylvania. I did NOT count my points while there, but I DID buy a bunch of fruit and other Weight Watcher's-friendly foods upon my arrival. So instead eating stuffing and mashed potatoes 100% of the time, I only did it 50% of the time. I consider this a triumph.

Weight-wise, I have gained 4 pounds since my lowest point 1 1/2 weeks ago. Again, a TRIUMPH. I am, as we speak, eating baby carrots and am back to counting points.

This next month will be difficult - it is my busiest time of the year, which makes it difficult to stay on plan. But I have promised to do my best. Wish me luck.

No Friday Weigh-In This Week

There will be no Friday Weigh-In this week, but I will weigh-in on Monday (my actual Weight Watchers weigh-in day). I am wussing out this week because I ate like a pig on Tuesday and Wednesday - which is TOTALLY Barack Obama's fault.

I will check in with you all regarding my weight/fitness on Monday. Wish me luck.

Don't Go Camping With Skinny Bitches

As you all know - I went camping this past weekend with my friends Maddie and Curt. Maddie and Curt are skinny - I am not. Cheese and crackers is a meal to them. THIS is a meal to ME(actually, these are only appetizers)...

I was hungry all weekend, but skinny Maddie and Curt could eat a grape and then be full for two hours. Not me - I need to keep a constant feedbag going. Maddie and Curt had finally heard enough of my bitching, and we decided to go to a local pub - Platz's. Gary, one of our camping hosts, had been there before - and went along with us. The picture above is of our appetizers. We also each had an entree and were STUFFED by the time we left. My veal parmesan dinner was delish - and Maddie's crabcakes were possibly the best I have ever eaten. See, Maddie is so skinny that he was willing to share his crabcakes with me!

The huge meal DID manage to shut me up for the night. But by the next day (Sunday), I was hungry again (natch). So guess where we went on our way back home...


Arby's number three baby!!!!! Thank you Maddie and Curt for putting up with my whining - and for feeding me..... eventually.
XOXOXO

Attention Chubby Chasers: COME AND GET IT!!!

What A Week!...

Wow! What a WILD few days! I am so far behind in reading all of YOUR blogs, let alone posting to mine. Goodness, I haven’t even shown any half-naked Papis in 2 days! I will have to remedy that soon.

I will also have a Step It Up and Dance post - complete with a RECAP, courtesy of our own Darling Joy! I ALSO have some inside gossip from the A-List awards regarding the Step It Up and Dance dancers ... courtesy of Laura K., the Empress of Blogging Project Runway.

I just want to mention, one more time, the absolutely fantastic night I had on Tuesday with Laura K. and the her merry band of designers. But now, without further delay, here is the moment you've all been waiting for (all three of you). Here I am, with Jack Mack (photo courtesy of Laura K.):

I am the sexy one on the right. As you can see – Jack has really let himself go…

To see the rest of the photos taken that night, see them on BPR here.
