yet.
Isn’t there a song in the Rudolph movie called “There always tomorrow”….
Well sometimes I feel like a misfit toy, especially this time of year! hee hee
I have strong Will Power…but lousy Won’t Power!
I made a promise to myself to blog daily and to visit the 3fatchicks site. I had blogged daily until….Friday!
I was in the middle of an ice storm! Sheesh. Electricity went out, thankfully back on so I thought I best not waste a moment and start blogging.
I am contemplating starting Weight Watchers in January. I have been a WW member many, many times. I have been very successful on WW. This last attempt at losing weight I have been doing my own thing and have been more successful than any previous weight loss program.
So, why change a good thing?
I’m bored!
I need something different to do as far as weight loss is concerned. Since I am familiar with the WW program I thought I would join and restart my stagnate weight loss.
I am sure they will be having sign up specials as the New Year New You approaches.
I could always try the “Death by Chocolate” diet. Yummy 
Oh I wish! Gee, what was I thinking when I left sunny California.
New Hampshire has a storm a brewing that will bring a combination of ice, sleet, freezing rain and snow. Sheesh, might as well throw in hail too boot! hee hee
All the preparation it takes to leave the house is mind boggling. De-ice the steps, shovel the walkways, brush off the vehicles and warm up vehicles. Sigh….
My period is looming too, gee….no breaks here.
On a positive note….Christmas is two weeks away! Hurray…then all the goodies will soon disappear.
Only to be replaced with…..(drum roll please)……5lb. boxes of Valentine Candy!
Yippee….
I’ve recently realized while working with my amazing therapist that I’ve had a very poor self image most of my life.
Losing weight (still more to lose) and exercising has not changed the way I view myself.
All the negative input I had growing up has continued to circulate and rear it’s ugly head.
I need to change my thinking and that will happen with the help of my therapist.
Kind of sad to have spent 40+ years with such a negative sense of myself.
I’m a work in progress.
I’ll join you in announcing my weight. Last weigh in I was (drum roll)….(gulp) 143.5 Holy Crap! I’ve gained 5-7 pounds over the last few months. I can’t blame my thyroid as many people do. I can only hold myself accountable for all my poor choices. I do not lead a hectic or stressful life. I have a TV with a DVD player and oodles of exercise DVD’s. I just purchased a super nifty treadmill. My cable has a channel called FitTv.
There is absolutely NO excuse for me not losing weight. It’s easy as pie (oh, low calorie pie) less calories in, exercise more.
The struggle with my weight is mind boggling. I am almost (gulp) 44 and I still tackle my weight and food choices daily.
I would say life is like a box of chocolates, but it has too many calories.
Wow, I must be motivated.
I just wanted to share with those who read this blog, which I am sure is a very small amount of peoples. :That I recently purchased a super nice treadmill! There will be no excuses as not having a chance to exercise. The previous winters I would brave the frigid temperatures and walk regardless of snow or ice. It would be highly dangerous, but also my poor skin took a beating to the harsh weather.
For some reason announcing to strangers about my wee little life is empowering! hee hee
my true love brought to me…
A bigger size of pantie…hee hee
Keep up the eating and I’ll be wearing Santa’s pants soon!
Keeping up with my goal of blogging daily, though I don’t have much to say. I’m also visiting 3fatchicks to get inspired.
I’m disappointed in myself that I have veered off my plan. It’s so easy to to stumble and get lost. I’m very committed and have zero desire to gain weight. I guess by acknowledging my slipping up it shows that I am very conscious of my mistakes and not just ignoring them, which in the past I have done.
Sigh, sadly winter is here in New Hampshire.
I wonder why I left California on days like this. On the west coast you can leave your house anytime day or night without cause. Here, you have to shovel, de-ice and be very careful not to slip as you head out. Oh yeah, have to remove snow from the vehicles.
Okay, enough grumbling.
I am keeping my promise to myself by blogging daily and visiting 3fatchicks. My goal is to get back on track at least 90% between now and Christmas. That is a very achievable goal, I hope.
Off to count snowflakes.
Made a pledge to myself yesterday (December 5th) to faithfully blog and visit the 3fatchicks site daily. I’ve been away a few months and it shows. 
I listed some very doable goals for the week and will try with all my might to accomplish them.
I think I had reached a “ha ha” moment a few months back. I was indulging quite a bit in ‘fun’ foods and either still losing or maintaining. But, sadly now the ‘ha ha’ is on me! I am no longer maintaining or losing. Luckily, I am realizing this NOW instead of turning the cheek and regaining all the weight I lost.
My indulgences have nothing to do with certain events or holidays, basically I eat when I am bored. Funny thing is, I am the one who buys the ‘no no’ foods, so I am self sabotaging myself. Must be a reason for that. I shall ask my therapist this week. Certainly he will be able to shed some light on why I am slipping off the wagon.
I already feel back in control just visiting 3fatchicks and blogging. So that in itself is a plus plus!
Oh my stars….
I haven’t posted a page on this blog since October!!! For Shame!
Well, I can say from first hand experience that not posting regularly and not accessing 3fatchicks has interrupted my healthy journey.
I have taken nearly 20 months of healthy eating and exercising and for the last two months thrown it all out the window.
I think Santa needs to put me on his naughty list.
I acknowledge my reckless eating. I buy the crap, therefore I eat it. Plain and simple.
The last two weeks I have gained (gulp) 5 pounds. UGH! Now you say, but it was Thanksgiving and possibly you over indulged. Nope. Didn’t have turkey with the trimmings, had M&M’s with the trimmings.
Accentuate the positive: I am still exercising daily (yay), I am drinking oodles of water (yay) I am still eating M&M’s (boo)!
I already feel in control now that I have officially came back to 3fatchicks and blogging.
Watch out Santa, you may have competition.
