Looking Fine by 2009: Week 2 – oh no!

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feedand email newsletter. Thanks for visiting!

I am challenging myself to be Looking Fine by 2009!

Progress on eating healthier foods: much better. I’ve made a menu for the week. I’ve been eating fruit and veggies and meat more. Yet, I gained 7 lbs from last week. I think my scale is broken. I have been eating like I’m famished. I think if I scale down a bit, I might be better. And cut out fast food completely. No more chocolate shakes – my weakness.

Progress on working out: I did significantly less of that this week. I think it could contribute to my weight gain.

Progress on drinking more water: I’ve been craving water like no tomorrow, so I haven’t even kept track. I know I’m getting more than enough

Week 2 Measurements

  • arms,thighs,hips,waist: not happy and not going to measure. I’m sure they’ll be about the same as they always are. When there’s significant weight loss, I’ll do it again.
  • weight check: 160 lbs (gained 4 total)

  1. I’m going to start “snacking” but in the healthy way. Fruit and nuts and the like. Or so I say this morning after weigh in. :)

  2. Hang in there! I know it must be frustrating to be eating healthier yet gaining weight. I definitely think portion size is important, but it could also just be a weird time of the month. You have to take it all into consideration. One thing I’ve read is that you should eat only when you are hungry and eat things you love, but stop when you are full. That means really slowing down and paying attention to your body. I tend to eat because it tastes good and then eat way too much. Healthy food is great but if you are eating too much of anything it can be dangerous. Good luck!

  • A beautiful kitchen island (finally!)
    Welcome to what I like to call THE LONGEST PROJECT IN THE HISTORY OF MAN. OK, a little dramatic, but really. It took forever. Serious. Serious. It started two and a half years ago when I took our builder basic kitchen island: And added some molding and paint: The sides of the island were made from that crapastic laminate stuff that you need to paint with pri […]

  • Disturbing. Distressing. Heartbreaking. Sad.
    A sense of sadness. Uneasiness. Distress. A memory of many decades ago. Back. Clear. Painful. Like it just happened. Just now. It involves a boy. A young boy… 14, going on 15. A boy I had in one of my Reading classes. A boy whom Barry had, too, in one of his Math classes. The boy was small.  Slight.  A shock of black, wavy hair a stark contrast to his pale s […]

  • How to Bring Peace to the Witching Hour
    Many parents notice that from roughly 4 to 5 pm, every day is a difficult time for their children. This rough spot in the day seems to affect children from newborns on up to adolescence.  To be honest, it’s the one time of the day that takes me to the brink of absolutely losing it. What is the witching hour? This hour that rocks and rolls in all the wrong wa […]

  • Emotional RICE
    Any good derby girl (that is, one who has had an injury) knows the importance of RICE: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Following these steps ensures a timely recovery from the breaks and bruises that come with the sport. I am an expert at these steps because I have suffered quite a few injuries over the past few years. I was thinking how nice it would […]

  • On geeking out.
    Yesterday was a day for geeking out. I posted a cute video of my 4 year old telling me a Phineas and Ferb bedtime story, swooning with mommy love at his creativity and may I just say, fantastic memory. It really impresses me how much of the show’s details he has absorbed and memorized – and this is a trait that carries through to many other areas. Songs we l […]
