Wine? Yes please!

I didn't do as well on Tuesday as Wednesday with my eating, but it is because we went to a lodge dinner last night. I did well and choose the Barramundi, although it was served with hollandaise sauce! It was delish! Oh it was so yummy. The major downfall of my eating was having wine. I had no willpower at all when it came to the alcohol. Sparkpeople says I should eat between 1200 and 1550 calories a day and yesterday I stayed just under that. I also walked for over an hour.

I still feel like I should be doing more.

Sounds like you have turned a corner and started getting back into the swing of it. Good for you.

I have to agree on the jeans sizes here in OZ. You cant just pick up the size you normally wear, you just have to try them on because they vary so much.

And if you're passing round the wine, Yes I'll have some too lol

Wine? Did someone say wine? Actually my alchohol weakness is gin.

It also sounds like pant sizes vary all over the world, not just here in the US...

Love the blog!

I've been lurking for a while but never commented, but just wanted to say good luck. None of it is easy - the weight loss, the- writing, the getting sorted (I know I'm going through all the same things myself!). But bit by bit you'll start achieving your goals and it will be SO worth it! Hang in there!

You are trying and that's what counts. And it could have been much worse than wine. Wine can be a good thing:)

You keep trying and that is the amazing part.

Sis, from one fatty to another, you just need to get right with yourself no matter your size. All that energy you spend on tracking food!

Sizes are crazy everywhere, and it drives ME crazy - I can be anything from an 8 to a 14, depending on the brand. Sigh.

Every day is hard for me in a different way - some writing and diet stuff never gets easier, I think. Hope everything is going well or at least OK for you...look forward to hearing from you!

The main thing, like everyone is saying, is that you (and I, and lots of others) keep on trying, are still in the game, even if we sometimes are on hiatus.

Good for you - keep up the good work! I know it's hard, but it's worth it!
Sounds like you are on the right path. It is tough my weak spot is certain sweets. I get a bite of some kinds and I can't stop. I have taken to avoiding the trigger foods altogether.

A trip down memory lane

Hello to all of you all of you coming via Michele , thanks for stopping by and I only hope it was worth the trip over. I began reading through the questions on the Slimmer of The Year application today. Of course there are so many things I want to include, but I can't possibly write everything I want to or they will be getting a novel. When I started thinking of how long I have been overweight and the reasons I struggled for so long with food and weight issues a lot of memories came back to me. I've been challanged by my weight for most of my life. Granted some of that time I only thought I was fat when I really wasn't. The point is that I have been fat inside my head for as long as I can remember. One of the most shameful and embarrassing moments was when I was 15 and some of the boys in my class thought it was funny to sing "thunder, thunder, thunder thighs hooooooo!" when they saw me coming to the tune of the cartoon "Thunder Cats." That experie...

All it takes is determination

I got my butt up this morning and did a 20-minute walk/jog, and it was still DARK outside. You proud of me?? Sure you are! I didn't do so well with my eating on the weekend, but this is not going to stand in my way. I know that in order to push through and lose more than what I've been averaging since Christmas (500-800 grams a week) I have got to stick to the Wendie Plan for the rest of this week and to my new lower points intake of 18 a day as well as exercise . I said the dreaded word, but it is true. I can do this. I have decided that there will be no excuses. I will apply to be this year's WW Slimmer of The Year. I can't let anything stand in my way. Thanks to all of you for getting behind me with this. Your support is so crucial because I am feeling high and on top of the world right now, but I know there will be days that I will feel like giving up the fight when I will start thinking it is just to hard and I know I will be going back and reading all your w...

Starting over

Hmm. Starting over is never easy. I'm on a new journey this time. I want to do this for different reasons. I want to do it for me. This week has been an okay one food wise, but I haven't been walking. I have had to suffer rain, but we needed it so it is hard to be mad about it. I know I may have lost a tiny bit of weight, but probably not much. Will weigh myself tomorrow. I had a few too many drinks still. BUT I swear I am trying! It is hard right now. I want to go to the doctor and request some weight-loss drugs. I don't think my doctor will give me them, and I know it is a weak way out, but I want the help. So don't judge me! Thanks so much for the support lately. Even the few of you who still check to see if I am around, your words mean a lot to me.
