It wasn't my blatant attempt to go backwards this week, I gained about 3 lbs, and I'd like to think it's cause I am building muscle, but I know better ;) I had a pretty hard week emotionally, and while there's no excuses in my book, I just didn't eat/drink as well as I should have. I missed Zumba on Saturday morning for opening day of baseball, and never had a make-up work out so I feel incredibly lazy. I ate like a pig yesterday (my cheat day), but really just shouldn't have eaten as much as I had. :p
So, the scale said I'm 295....boooo....
Today for breakfast is a butterscotch mousse shake with a nice big salad for lunch and I have no clue what's for dinner yet. Maybe a meatloaf with leftover veggies from yesterday's fabulous Easter dinner!

Did you hear the one about the girl?
Me either.
This week hasn't gone my way, but it's almost over and I can only pray next week is better/back to "normal". I started back to Zumba last Saturday. Felt good to get back. Our normal instructor was on vacation, but I still had fun. I got to go back to a normal Ivorie taught class on Tuesday and it was AMAZING. She introduced new stuff and it was so fun, that I am still sore from that workout! I find myself walking around the house when music is on doing this one move looking like a 'tard, but lovin' the way it feels.
I haven't lost any more weight, but I haven't gained it, either, which is good. I have been having a hard week emotionally and haven't EXACTLY been turning to food for comfort, but I sure want to. I have usually been having one shake a day...still want to up it to 2, but just doesn't seem like I have time....how does that work?
I went to Zumba tonight, had a blast. Realized tonight I can't go Saturday cause it's opening day for baseball, but that is exciting all in itself!

If that ain't the pot calling the kettle ..... fat.
:p
Went to the doc for annual lady parts checkup. Scale said 290.somethin or another. I even saw it flash the 289! I wish my scale at home was that nice to me, but it's okay, I have lost another pound and it came down to 291. I hope to start Zumba again tomorrow, even though my normal instructor won't be there and the sub is a lot harder, but I wanna do it....no reason not to. I don't know what classes I will be able to attend soon as opening day for baseball is the 7th and we will have 2 games to juggle with. So, Saturdays may be out....Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4-5 we have one practice and the other practice is so far? just Wednesdays from 7-8...but we will see.
Easter is coming up and my family doesn't seem to have any big plans. We have all the kids this year which means my family probably won't want to do anything, which is fine, I will have Nick help me make food here :0) I wish my sisters lived up here (hurry up, summer!) so that I could spend the holidays with them. I miss them.
Well, off to soothe fussy babies!

Holy crap!!
Pardon the French!
I have been bedridden for 8 days now. I stepped on the scale today to see if I had at least maintained my weight over the week, only to find the scale has been rather pleasant to me!! I weighed in at 291.2.....heck YES.
I AM ONE HAPPY GIRL!!

Happy Pi (3.14) Day!
What day is it? I have no idea anymore...they all seem to run together lately. I know I fall down for some sleep around 10p and wake up at 630a, but then I'm lost LOL
I drug myself to zumba last night. I didn't wanna go, but I didn't wanna sit around in the aroma that was the nachos I made for dinner (and didn't eat....until later). So, I grabbed my water bottle, stopped and got my niece and headed to class. It was an amazing class, as usual! Katie had a great time and picked up some good moves. I left sore and sweating like mad. :)
I realized I need to remember that I don't eat as big of portions as I used to. I couldn't fight the cravings today and ended up having my fave comfort food, mac and cheese. I made one box to give enough to the two kids I had today and I would eat the rest. It wasn't that much as I had accidentally dumped quite a bit down the sick (oops!)....maybe just over a cup? Then I wanted to add chili to it. I ate it so fast that my stomach didn't have time to tell me it was full and now I am so full, I am miserable! Ugh.
Well, you live and you learn.
My rings are starting to hang off my fingers and spin much more than normal. The one on my right hand easily fits on my middle and pointer finger of my left hand. Amazing! My pant legs are so much looser than normal, this is just so awesome!
Until next time!

Is this my Monday?
I *live* for zumba, anyone should know that by now...today....today I just don't wanna go. :( I will...I just don't wanna.
It's been a slow, cold, uneventful day and I almost want to keep it that way. But I want to go to my room and close the door and just lie there in the dark. I'm not sure why.
Yesterday morning, I made an Almond Joy shake. It was delicious. I didn't feel like having a fruit shake, nor did I feel like having anything thick. So, I made it really thin and downed it. It was amazing. I had a 1/2 c. of low fat cottage cheese for a snack, with no lunch cause my tummy was messed up and then made madarin chicken in the crockpot and mashed red skinned potatoes with bacon and cheese in it. It, also, was delicious. During my online seminar, I got hungry, so I made a double batch of Almond Joy to let Nick try it and he was impressed, too. It settled me for the night.
I woke up this morning to snow, made a cherry banana breeze shake and went to Tanya's cause I was bored. She fed me a sausage muffin with cheese (I know I shouldn't have, but it was yum!). For lunch I had a small portion of dinner that was leftover and for dinner, I will skip taco Tuesday and have a shake and drag my booty to an hour or two of Zumba and hopefully shake this grump!
Accomplishments in the last week:
I am comfortable in jeans again
My shirts are magically longer
My "goal" bra fits
I said goodbye to 300, for forever!
My #1 most favorite accomplishment thus far....I am totally a stomach sleeper again! I can sleep flat on my stomach without feeling like all my organs are in my throat and having my stomach hurt! And I can breathe while I do it! YAY!!! (I know, I'm lame :p)
