Oh yeah
03.24.06 (11:33 am)   [edit]

I forgot to mention...

I've decided I will weigh myself every Friday. I am at 150 lbs right now. Two-three years of good habits...down the drain.

And I think I will change my food habits again and go back to 3 meals and maybe a snack or something. I think I was eating too much with my attempted 5 meals a day. I was making good food choices, but I think my portions were too big. Not that I"ve ever dieted a day in my life. I eat pretty well most of the time, but then I give in occasionally to some indulgences -- maybe once a week? not bad at all :)

One thing I don't get is why people think their shoes are so heavy. When my luggage was 5 lbs over the max weight, my friend told me to take out a pair of shoes. When people weigh themselves at the gym, they take off their shoes. How much do people think their shoes are going to affect the weight?  

But then I again, I have size 6 - 6.5 feet. People always tell me I have small feet. I guess that would affect shoe weight.

Well you know some of todays styles-clogs for example-do weigh alot. Or maybe it's just a little more comforting blaming the extra few pounds on the shoes, lol.

You can buy these portion guides for pasta, rice and stuff at Walmart or any other place. They are awesome. Now I don't waste pasta or over eat. Also, the 3 meals plus 2 snacks is still a good idea. May be you ended up with your final meal/snack too late in the day. If you have a snack at 3:30 or 4:00 pm, you'll eat less for your final meals of the day. So I have been told by the good people at my gym. I'd love to be 150 lbs right now.

I stopped eating wheat.. If you are willing to try it out.. I know it's hard to get rid of it. I lost weight from doing that.. (and we can't forget about the added stress too).

150 i think is a good weight. us girls need to stop following hollywood standards, we would all be much happier.

I used to weigh myself every week, but it got majorly depressing and so I stopped. Now, I just to try to eat less...mostly I cut out meat, coz that's the main portion of my fat intake. Don't know how much your shoes will affect the scale, maybe if they're like combat boots or something, it might do something, but i'm not sure if sneakers or related make much of a difference. when i weigh myself, i do it naked...whoa, too much info there! LOL but the thing is consistency i guess, if you wear shoes, keep wearing them, that should cancel out any affect, because you'll always have that extra weight to factor in.

Hmm...maybe I should get heavier shoes, too...they'd provide a better workout when walking!! Maybe one of these days, cement shoes will catch on.

I don't eat that much wheat, I think...what else is it in besides bread and pasta? 150 is a little much for me since I'm short! I would be happy with 140 right now, even. :-)

I always just weight myself at the gym, so I can't really go naked there *L* Maybe I should take off a pound for my hair, too. I know everyone's weights are always fluctuating, so I am just going to weigh myself once a week at the same time of day. That should be consistent enough!

*L* At least there has been one benefit to "porking out." I think dieting is for the birds; it's hard! I just tend to avoid certain foods (like junk and deep fried stuff) and eat everything else in moderation.
