and I’m down. I keep digging it back out. Decided to leave it out but will try and stay off it. We’ll see how that works. Decided I won’t buy a new container for my thank you cards. I did some rearranging and found something else so I might get some cute accessories for my hair. We’ll see. This new design is starting to grow on me so I might be good to go.
I love butterflies and what they symbolize but I needed a change. I really didn’t like the dark background too much but dealt with it for the butterflies. I may still change the look again but for now this works. The third column with repeating information from the second column is bothering me right now so I may still change again. I’m doing quite well right now in terms of eating and exercising. Very,very happy about that.
I made it there on August 1st. Bought the Brenda Lee bag from QVC. Its waitlisted. Expected ship date is 9/15. Can’t wait. I’m on the board of a non profit and I need a bag totally dedicated to that and this will be it. I plan to reward myself again at 150 days. I will buy body washes from Carol’s Daughter (www.carolsdaughter.com) because I am going all natural. Currently I use Bath & Body Works products which is probably not that great for my extremely dry skin. I’m down to my last few. I plan to reward myself again at 180 days. That would be 6 months binge free so I really have to think about how to reward myself for that one. Maybe spend $180 on something??
The 10K training is going well. I am in my second week. I will do Day 3 tomorrow. The ipod is so helping! I won’t be able to use it the day of the race but I will have friends there so that will help.
I subscribed to this podcast and I am finding it helpful. It is called Inside Out Weightloss: http://renee.personallifemedia.com/ I’ve been listening to it each morning while taking a bath. I found out about through the “Living Rainbow Color” blog listed in my blogroll to the right. She links the podcasts and posts her thoughts about each episode. You might want to take a look at it.
Again I have been neglecting my blog. Bad me. Lets see so what have I been up to? I got my stimulus check and did some serious shopping. I am very happy with my purchases. Did I talk about that already? I don’t remember. I bought my ipod and I am obsessed. I already have 400 songs on it. I got itunes gift cards for my b-day and I own a ton (an understatement) of cds. It really made a difference when I was on the treadmill yesterday. IE is going well. Tired of the scale. Can’t wait to stop stepping on it every week when the Just Beachy challenge ends.
I’ve been bullshitting about training for my 10k. I keep starting and stopping. I started again this week. I refuse to fail on the day of the race. I will finish it and it won’t take forever.
100 days binge free! I am really trying to cut back on spending, pay off some credit cards, and save. That means if I want or need anything I must pay cash/debit card–same thing. So in terms of rewards I think I will get functional items. Meaning something I want and need. So I will buy the fashionable reusable bags. My next reward will be a pretty container for my thank card collection which has got a bit out of hand. I don’t need to buy any for awhile. When I actually begin exercising on a consistent basis I will start buying exercise related rewards. At this point they wouldn’t even be used. I will buy an ipod for my b-day which I will use for exercising and just for listening to music too.
As usual I have been neglecting my blog. Today I am back. I have deleted two pages: Exercise & Food Log. I track them elsewhere on 3FC and I can’t keep track of them here and there. If its complicated I won’t do it. So I won’t log that here. I made it to 90 days binge free on June 22nd! I rewarded myself with two new swimsuits for my vacay to Myrtle Beach. Yay for me!!!! I make it through today and it will be 100 days! I am so proud of myself.
Day 90 is a week from today. I’m trying to make decisions about what to get. I’m thinking about buying bags from here. www.envirosax.com. I have bags for Whole Foods but I don’t like carrying them into other stores. So I want to get some generic but stylish bags that I can use for Trader Joe’s, Farmer’s Market, and any other stores I may go to. Or I may buy some more pilates dvds. I’m watching some on e-bay. We shall see.
I’ve got to get better at this. I love my blog. I really do! It is quite helpful to me. I feel so uninhibited here. That’s a good feeling. I’m back on the exercise wagon. It is a product of my stress level. I exercise so I don’t binge. It’s been working so far. Besides I want to buy some exercise stuff. I need to exercise to earn it. Oh yeah, I signed up to do the Marine Corps Marathon 10K. I know crazy, right? I’m scared but excited.
I got it this past Friday. I haven’t used it yet. I have set it and it looks like it works. We shall see when I finally exercise. Still trying to make sure I’m posting my menus. I decided to post what I plan to eat then edit it. Once I do that I will copy & paste it into my food log here. Well I am finally done with all my LC meals. I will no longer buy LC, Smart Ones, or Healthy Choice meals. I think SB are okay and definately Kashi meals are okay. Otherwise I will be making my lunch for work. Salads, sandwiches, leftovers. Gotta go get ready for work.
I have been neglecting my blog as usual. Update– I decided to buy skincare products rather than a HRM for my 30 day reward. I am only planning to reward myself every 15-30 days now. I haven’t decided fully which one it will be. Now at 60 days I will buy a HRM. Hopefully it will encourage me to actually exercise. That is my huge struggle. So I will hit up e-bay today. Now I have to remember which Polar monitor I wanted to buy. I’m supposed to be reading Bob’s book but for some reason I’m not. Maybe that means I’m not ready. I think I will read my Superfoods book for now. I need to work on posting my menus everyday. I keep forgetting. I have been posting my menus on a thread in 3FC and just have been copying my menus from there.
