You want a piece of this.....

Ok so same same same......haven't lost haven't gained. Also, have not made any effort to go to the gym it's been over a month now. I just had lunch, cream of cauliflower soup and potato salad...yes i know, cream soup and starchy carby potatoes though i don't think there was any mayo on the salad. I had a wonderful fruit salad on tuesday evening at my friends house though, strawberries, pineapple and watermelon, it was delightful.

I need to get back on track and focus on my meal planning and the gym. I was talking to Jennifer the other day about feeling lightheaded which never happens to me. I wonder if it is my diet as of late. I've not had much fruit or any of my regular protein shakes which i'm normally quite vigilant about. I figure i have a few weeks left till the wedding, i shall go out with a bang. My nutition plan will be easy to follow for a 2 week span. Clearly me trying every so often for months at a time does not work but 2 weeks is certainly an attainable goal.

Shame

Everyone and their dog was at H&M on Saturday

I was at H&M at the Eaton Centre on Saturday, I went out shopping with the dude, for various things, but, inevitably, was magnetically drawn to the fabulousness that is the H&M. Anyway, we were going around making cracks about which character on the O.C. would wear which garment as we looked through the racks.

Later, as I talked to my various friends, it turned out that everyone else was there too, and so was Mischa Barton, with her dog in her purse.

What does this have to do with weightloss you ask? I bought two skirts in a size I hadn't been able to squeeze my expanding ass into in over 10 years. I can't say it's coming off on the scale, but who cares? Not me.

The Old College Try

So, I have totally veered from my diet and exercise program the last week or more because I got totally frustrated. I went forever without losing a single pound, which wouldn't have been as miserable except that my face suddenly blew up. At first I thought that maybe I just had some water retention which usually only lasts for a couple of days...this lasted for nearly 2 weeks.

Due to my frustration, I of course threw my diet to the wind and have proceeded to eat whatever I like and fortunatley for me I haven't gained a pound...thank god. However, the puffiness did turn out to be some sort of freakishly long water retention (I was running to the bathroom literally every 20 minutes for an entire day.) My face has thinned back out and someone I hadn't seen in a long time complimented me on weight loss. So I think that was the motivation I needed and will be resuming the program as of Monday.

Mediocracy at it's best

Well, i'm happy to say i have not gained....though on the downside i have not lost. I've been stagnent for weeks now. I can definately say though that i have not been trying like i was in the beginning. I have not seen the inside of my gym in almost a month as well i have not bothered to pack good lunches. Twice this week i ran over to the hospital cafeteria to get take-out. I did have crab salad on a croissant with fruit and yogurt though, so not too terribly bad, minus the mayo and croissant.

I guess i realize the wedding is coming in less than a month and what could i possibly do in that little time to change anything? I have not given up, but i've not seen any changes in the past little while, rightfully so as i've been quite lax in my attempts to be healthy. I went for my dress fitting yesterday and i do fit into the dress so that is a bonus. Now whether i will feel comfortable is said dress is a completely different story. No way!!! When i weighed 40 pounds less i did not feel comfortable in tank tops and sleeveless shirts, nothing has changed in that respect and this is one of those skirts with a separate top that is like a tube top. I just may look like a stuffed sausage roll....

Ash lost her thong in Vegas...

Not only did I eat steak dinners left and right, we had buffet dinners, we had Carl's Jr. for breakfast... And if you think the eating was bad, the drinking was worse.
Luckily, despite eating gluttonously, I had the shits so badly from all the booze and grease, I didn't gain an ounce. Ash on the other hand....

Weigh in

Looks like I am the winner this week. I stayed the same.

Ash and jenni are surely getting fatter by the second in Vegas and Linny and berly chickened out(?)

So whose yer daddy now? eh? eh?

Result Time

Okay...I've managed to get myself back on track. Took me long enough...

Results for this week are 1.15%.

My only problem is that Cinco de Mayo is friday and I promised my friends that I'd actually drink because in all the weekends we've gone out, I haven't touched a drop of alcohol in over a month. I guess the key will be practicing moderation and then busting my ass in workouts over the rest of the weekend.
