weight watch: weeks 6-8

i've lost it. my motivation. my mind, too. maybe. the one good thing i have done in the lost couple of weeks is that i went back to the meeting. now i just need to get back my positive eating habits....and some of that motivation that is so darn important. stress and depression over my lack of a romantic social life can be real a detriment to motivation, i have decided. fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. i'm just going to say it : i'm lonely and i want to date. i don't think i'm in the right place emotionally for a really serious relationship, but a little long- overdue romance would be nice. I do have a few things to look foward to. I will probably have a new homebase in a few months. With that I hope to become more active around my future neighborhood. bike rides, picture taking, farmers market, twlight strolls along the tree lined streets. yes.

i didn't go to weight watchers this week. i lost the 1.2 pounds I had gained 2 weeks ago, last week. I took a lot of motivation away from the meeting, and hit the gym 2 days a in a row.

I danced pretty hard 2 nights in a row. I went for a nice long walk/ jog on the beach. but there was the pizza...and the beer and margaritas...and the carne asada breakfast burrito. wtf?!?!..and the really good potato salad...and the oreos...ok i'll stop now. i got on the scale this evening, and decided to stay home and watch the olympics. I need to find my superhero. i need to save me from myself. my good friend, KC (crowcrastination.blogspot.com) posted a link to marvel comics on her amazing blog. the link:http://marvelkids.marvel.com/create_your_own_superhero. you should look at her blog, though.

weight watch week 4, or the week when carrie fisher threw confetti at me

that's right princess leia herself showered me with colorul confetti. but first things first. I gained 1.2 pounds. this is not the end of the world. i know what i did. i ate crap that makes you gain 1.2 pounds. i need to will myself into the gym at least 3 times a week or this is never going to work. i have the healthy eating thing down. at least during the week. at work. i have the water thing down. i now have an excuse to get up from my desk every 1.5 to 2 hours. the water cooler is in the breakroom. this breakroom is out the door, thru the stairwell, down the hallway, past the bathroom(where a pre or post water pit stop usually takes place), and through the "shop" where all the sets are constructed. This is a nice break from work, and usually takes between 5-10 minutes. Honestly, I did really good this week. I was eating good, getting plenty of water, I feel as though I will probably loose between 2-3 pounds this week. not bad. could be better. i probably went overboar...
