Soo Excited

I am so excited. I was able to pick up my HCG injections. I am so looking forward to taking them again. I really think it will help me loose this weight. Combined with working out and eating healthy I think it will all work out.

The kids aren't too thrilled with the idea of eating things they haven't had before but I am sure they will live through it if they have a healthy mother who can run and play with them. :D

So proud of Myself

Yesterday Derek took me out to do some shopping, I attended a friends baby shower and then we went out shopping a little more and then to dinner. Let me say, my knees hurt so bad all day long. We did not work out that morning because of how bad they hurt.

I ate very well all day, and then we went to Pomodoro's for dinner. I ordered a house salad with balsamic vinaigrette dressing and a Black Olive Mushroom Calzone for dinner. I only ate half. I wasn't stuffed but I was satisfied and then I ordered a Canoli. I LOVE CANOLI'S I remember eating them when I was in NY all the time. I decided to split it with Derek. I never want to share my desserts but tonight I wanted to. I am glad I did. It was a nice size and I didn't want to be stuffed so I ate half. It was soooo good but I didn't feel like I needed more than what I had. It was a fabulous dinner.

I was able to purchase two pairs of capri's and two shirts. YAY!!

Today is the day

Today is the day that I am starting my blog ramblings for my weight-loss. I will fist start by saying. I am obese and need to loose weight. I am tired of being overweight and tired of not being able to run and jump with my kids because it hurts my knees or back and I am just too "tired" to do it.

I started a week ago to get motivated to start working out and working on loosing weight. I weighed in at 262.6 pounds. I worked out on Friday morning at 5:30 with Derek, Saturday we worked out and I did 30 step ups on the stairs and walked 2 miles during 400 calories during that walk. Took Sunday off since it was SUNDAY! hehe and then picked back up on Monday which was my 38th birthday. But the sad part was I had a cake on Sunday that a wonderful neighbor gave me and then Monday I had two cakes. One of which Derek made and one from my awesome friend Amy. So there is my downfall I suppose. We also took of Thursday which kind of ruined the idea of a "last chance workout" so I weighed in this morning at a whopping 262.2 lbs. After all that work I only lost .4 lbs. UGH. That was so disheartening.

I am still going to push forward and work on getting this weight off. I worked out this morning and I plan to work out the same as I did before. Hopefully with better results since there wont be any cake around. :D I go to the doctor on Tuesday and hopefully we can get this thyroid problem straightened out since I seem to have leveled off again. We shall see.
