Another Weigh

165 pounds

I put on 4 pounds in under a week. That’s so humiliating. I’ve known that what I’m eating has been garbage and I’ve been eating lots of it. I’ve known and I haven’t cared. I can pinpoint some of the times in which my eating was bad because I let my emotions rule, but other times I just ate. For no reason. I just didn’t care. Has anyone else had this problem? Why is it? I also notice that I tend to overeat when I am in physical pain. My knees hurt from the years of being overweight, kneecaps wearing away at cartilage, and just from running so whenever a strong weather front comes in it makes them hurt really bad to the point that Tylenol or ibuprofen doesn’t even help.

I did buy some fixings for a salad so I went ahead and prepared a big mix and have had that for lunch the past two days. I was at the grocery store when I was on my lunch break and happen to find miso soup! It’s instant so we’ll see how it tastes, hopefully almost as good as the real deal. I could eat miso soup all the time, plus I heard it’s really helpful in weight loss because it’s so low calorie but very filling. That might be why I lost weight last week when we went out to eat a lot. I had lots of miso soup.

So today after I get off of work I am heading over to the school to work out. I have to make up for my easy 2 miler I didn’t do yesterday (oops!) plus my lifting and core workout. I haven’t been real strong about the lifting, and definitely not enough when it comes to the core. I need to work a lot more on both.

Life is just so busy lately. I tell myself that I will not do anything for one evening each week and end up over-filling the week. It’s awesome because I know that once school starts back up I will be super busy with school, it’s just pretty exhausting is all. I need to get to bed earlier at night but I let myself get hooked on facebook. So I think for the rest of the week I am gunna cut myself off at 9 (if I’m even home).

Tonight I’m going with my Wednesday night Bible study group to Science Central because it’s only $0.95 for admission. Call me crazy, but I just love the kids stuff! I can’t wait to go to the zoo as well.

Alrighty…well that’s enough rambling for now. I’ll get back to it all later.
