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 was eating really well, and following all the good eating guidelines. The came the weekend. yes. i hate weekends. i can not keep it together on the weekend. I was plenty active. 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. A-MAZ-ING writer. a

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
