2010_0523 New Start

I remember hearing that it dose not matter how many times you fall, what matters is that you get up one more time. My weight loss journey has been like that. I keep messing up, procrastinating, loosing 2lbs and gaining 1 back.

Another season of The Biggest Loser is about to end this coming Tuesday. I will be watching. I realize there are many reasons why they have succeed and I have not. I can list many reasons but they will only be excuses. UGH. It is difficult, but I am not giving up. It may take me another year to finish my weight loss journey, but I will finish it.

I am finally taking the dietary supplement pills endorsed by Jillian Micheals, The Fat Burner and The Calorie on a regular basis. I am trying to get used to using the "Lose It" app to count my calorie intake. Until I get the hang of the app, I am incorporating the SlimFast plan. It is very simple to follow and right now, I need simple.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not starving myself. I do enjoy a healthy sensible dinner every day. What I am now doing is NOT finishing my kid's plate when he leaves one piece of this or that.

If you have any simple tips and/or ideas for this SAHM of two toddlers to help her lose wieght, please send them my way.

BTW, I expect to be tweeting more.

Where to Purchase Shoes

My chosen method of exercise is walking. I can do it almost anywhere at almost any time. I have heard of walking referred to as the simplest, easiest, least expensive method of exercise. Least expensive does not mean 100% free. There is no charge to go out and walk around. Walking at the local park is free, but walking at local amusement park is not. Therefore, I will agree, walking can be free but not 100% free. Walking requires I wear shoes. Walking across a bare foot is not for me. Soft grass feels nice but most of the time grass feels like tiny sharp points. It may not be as bad as walking across a floor filled with Legos, but I can't walk on grass for an extended period of time. Walking on a typical street sidewalk is doable, but again, I can not do it for an extended period of time. I need padding otherwise my heal starts to hurt. Walking for me requires having a good pair of shoes. Previously I spoke about knowing if is it time for a new sneakers ? My answer was, yes. Ne

Healthier Choice, Still Over Budget

Today I did a better job than yesterday, but not by much. Overall it is a step in the right direction.  Here is the break down: + Logged all my calories using LoseIt + Consumed less calories. - Was over my daily caloric budget. + Consumed healthier food. - Had too much food. + Drank more fluids. - Had 2 glasses of diet soda. + Did some physical labor - Should have walked more, tracked by FitBit Here are some snapshots from my lunch today. The food at the Soupplantation was yummy. I would h ave had a third plate, but did not want to go further over budget than yesterday. Here is a glimpse at my physical labor. I swept a drive way and collected a can full of leaves and twigs. Getting into the gym to workout is not really an option for me, so I find ways like this to workout.

2011_0117 Counting Calories at Disneyland

-
Over the weekend we went to Disneyland. I did not take the tram ride from the parking lot to the main entrance. Instead I decided to walk. The distance from the elevator at the Mickey & Friends Parking Lot to the Check-Point where the trams drop you off is 0.60miles. I brought with me some fresh fruit and some bottles of water, in effort to curve temptation to eat too much junk food. When it was finally time for dinner, I decided I would eat at the Red Rocket Pizza Port in Tomorrow Land. I wanted to enjoy my dinner but not go crazy with the calorie count. The menu board did not have calorie counts, no where obvious where nutritional values posted either. I asked the door greeter where I could find the information. He said to ask anyone behind the counter. Including him, I asked 4 employees in there. Each would point me to the next person until the kitchen was gave me a response. "We are still collection information, so we don't have the information." That left me pu
