So I haven’t posted in a while. I’ve been having anxiety issues, big time! I’m sure you guys can understand it as well if you still hadn’t found a job and your unemployment runs out in one more check!
I have been working really hard at getting off those pounds that I put on while I was dating that dude. As of today, I’m down (AGAIN) to 201.3. Hopefully within one more week, I’ll be back at 200 (maybe less!). So this week I decided to cut out half the soda I was drinking daily. I don’t do diet drinks (aspartame is BAD) so to save some calories, I have to not drink my Pepsi or Mountain Dew like usual.
This is my lunch today. It is a big bag of Funyons, a Skinny Cow Heavenly Crisp, a Pepsi, and a sandwich made with whole wheat bread (fiber!) and Underwood Chicken Spread (protein!). I am not only going to show you this HUGE lunch that is going to take me all afternoon to eat, I am going to show you the breakdown of what I’m eating. The sugar obviously is coming from the soda, the salt from the chips (although did you know a big bag of Funyons is only 160 calories?), and the carbs are from the bread, chips, and soda.
Hmm, having uploading issues! I’m not sure how to get that fixed but anyway, last week I was at 203 and by walking more (I had really slacked off for a while) and eating only the calories I’m supposed to daily, I’m back on track. We all gain and screw up every once in a while, it’s called life.
Little Man is doing good being schooled at home so far. He already read a book and wrote me a 2 page book report on it! Tonight is his Scout graduation and he will become a Webelos 2. He passed 4th grade with all B’s. So I’m proud of him!
Finally got the pictures to upload!
