I am a hippo

Good Lord!! I gained a few pounds this week, i'm disgusting. It's not a shocker at all. For some reason i've only eaten at home once this week i think. The rest of the week i've gorged on fried veggie subs, poutine, pizza pizza with garlic sauce, fried veggies and fries, melted crab sandwhich and fries, falafels the list is endless. Instead of my usual egg whites with oatmeal and fruit. I've been stopping at Tim Hortons every morning and getting a bagel with cream cheese and an iced cap. I've eaten out almost every meal this week and it certainly shows on the scale. The strange thing is my clothes fit just the same. I had no idea until i stepped on the scale that i had gained a few pounds.

As we all know i've also been a slacker at the gym for most of the summer. Surprisingly i did get in there on Monday and Wednesday so i am trying to get back into it. I think this is my "rock bottom" as they call it. I'm completely disgusted with myself. I'm spending the weekend grocery shopping and making meals for the week to prevent any more take out fiascos.

I find that when I eat a non healthy breakfast, I eat non healty for the rest of the day. And if the pants don't fit, it is hard to find the motivation to get back to healthy. Until you wake up one morning and the five pounds the scale said you acquired feels and looks like ten.
Good luck this week!

That was suppose to be if the pants DO fit.
Sorry

I hit the hippo point last week, not only did I gain for the last weigh in, but, later in the week, a pair of pants that I altered for my new svelt form was so tight that the button popped open. So, I went on austerity measures and I lost what I'd gained. I'm keeping up the austerity measures this week, and I'm aiming to get down to my lowest weight for the next weigh in.

I lost a lb. I have been working out daily at work. 2 days weights and 3 days cardio. I have been eating healthy too.

Damn...I know I left a post on here Thursday. Maybe I closed it out before I made sure I got the word verification right.

My attempts at Birthday hottiness failed because I suck. So the pictures I'm afraid are going to be either non-existent or filed away somewhere.

It sounds like what you all need is some new competition. It sounds like you're all slacking a bit, so maybe what you need is a new person in the competition, to get your competative juices flowing again.

I doubt a new person on board would help me. I need something more along the lines of going to the beach in a bikini a few months from now regardless of what i've lost or not lost. Oh wait, it will be too cold by then good.

Ash, if you think that your clothes are hiding your lardiness, you're mistaken.
PP, if you're hinting that you're ready to join now, you know the drill.
