tiny dancer: Snack Less Tonight →
“Though the jury has long been divided as to whether late-night snacking can lead to weight gain, new research does suggest that eating at times that conflict with your natural body rhythms can prevent you from losing weight. If late-night fridge raids are a problem, read this before it gets dark!
THIS IS MY NUMBER ONE PROBLEM. i eat pretty well at work, all day long, but then i get home and...
Rant
I have this friend, A, and I was always bigger than her. Then A gained a bunch of weight, and I lost 2 pounds.
Recently, A posted a TON of pictures where she photo-shopped them to make herself look thinner. (Apparently there’s this new program out that helps you slim people in photos like the pros do). She touched up herself in the pix, but of no one else. So there I am in all my fat glory...

Cheater
I cheated. For the first time since I made the rule, I cheated.
A while ago I said, no candy, no fried potatoes (see here)
AND I HAVE BEEN SO GOOD.
until today. I very willingly, very happily, ate 15 potato chips.
FAIL.
So today I RE-PLEDGE, to myself and my Tumblr friends:
1. NO CANDY. (Doing really good on this one folks!)
2. NO FRIED POTATOES (for realsies this time)
3. NO DELIVERY...

Hope y’all are having healthy days!

glamourandgrace-deactivated2011 asked: Sorry to hear your Greek yogurt dropped on the floor - I am ADDICTED to that stuff!
Do you typically eat it plain or do you ever jazz it up a bit? I eat Fage cherry or blueberry for breakfast almost everyday, but I have a big tub of vanilla that I've been saving to do something with.

WIW
Down 1/2 a pound.
Weak.
BUT it is the first sign of weight loss I’ve had since starting with my trainer two weeks ago.
Sigh.

Weekend: NYC, Wedding, Stress, but NO WEIGHT...
Here’s the short version:
FRIDAY: Work was HORRIBLE. By far my worst day here. Boss was evil, she yelled a lot, and I was beyond stressed. The result? No time to eat virtually all day, but then lots of stress eating (read: mac and cheese and bbq) Friday night. Oy.
SATURDAY: Drove up to NYC. VERY stressful drive. Took almost 8 hours. I live in DC (4.5 hours away). Sheesh. Very little eating...

Afternoon Wins and Failures
WIN: Got this butt to the gym! I was only able to steal away for 30 mins, but that gave me 10 min jog + 12 min power walk + 8 min bike. woot!
WIN: Had an apple after my workout, and nothing else.
WIN: At the office event that had margaritas (a real deal margarita machine!), I had a Michelob Ultra.
FAIL: At the office event that had margaritas, I had about 8 triangles of brie and apple...

Went to Harris Teeter (grocery store) to get a big ole salad, some greek yogurt, and sliced turkey for protein bursts throughout the week.
Sounds smart, right?
And it IS, right up until the point I get a huge heaping scoop of macaroni and cheese from the hot food bar. FAIL.
Yes, it was only ONE scoop. But dudes. It’s mac and cheese. ItS LITERALLY DRIPPING WITH CALORIES. Fan freaking...

A very sad WIW
Im just sad.
For two weeks I have been (mostly) eating well and working out at least 4 times a week (huge for me!), which includes starting with a personal trainer.
I didn’t expect to loose 30 lbs or anything, but I expected to loose SOMETHING. ANYTHING.
But, on this WIW, I see ZERO change. :(
It just makes me really sad…

WORKOUT AT WORK! :D
Yes, as hard as it is to get away, I stole an hour and worked out during my work day!!! YAY!!!!
30 minutes on the treadmill (9 running, 21 power walking on an incline. Yeah, I was supposed to do 10 mins running, but Im lame).
Plus a few sets of weights…
… And now Im back in my office, terrified my boss is going to come down and get all pissy at me for being away.
Worth it? YES.

I am useless
Total and complete waste of (a lot of) space.
At least that is how I am made to feel at work.
