Fat Ass Friday - July 22, 2011

I skipped last week's Fat Ass Friday because I didn't like what the scale said. Well, I didn't like what it said this week, either, but then I realized something. I can't hold myself accountable if I ignore it. And I'm not helping anyone learn about PCOS if I don'tr share the real, honest truth, no matter how much it depresses me. Apparently I deleted the picture from my phone, so no scale pic today.

Starting weight: 233
Last week's weight (Two weeks ago): 234.4
Current weight: 240.0
Weight +GAIN / -LOSS this week: +5.6
Total weight lost: +7.0

I was the same this week as I was last week, and I want to cry. Granted, I'm not working out. I've failed part of my 21-day challenge again. However, just one more week before I become a stay-at-home whatever, and have plenty of time to work out. Hubs understands how important this is for me, and he's supposed to be helping me work out more, now that I'll have more time to do it. I'm really hoping to work up to at least an hour of exercise a day - but I know I need to start out slow so I don't hurt myself.

This is a constant battle with PCOS. Just a week can make a huge difference. Eat too many potato chips one day, and you're regretting it for weeks to come. Stop exercising, and it comes back.

I'm trying. Really, I am. I guess I'm just not trying hard enough. Here's hoping that next week goes better! Are you going to link up with us? Head to Brandy's blog You Don't Know, to link up!



Oh, just a side note - Happy 11th anniversary, Dad and Sherry!

  1. Finding time to work out can be really hard. But once you do find it, it's easier to find a good routine that works for you. Hope you have a wonderful and healthy week!

  2. You can do it! At least you are still looking at the scale and know that number. I think the biggest part of weight gain is complacency.

  3. You can do this! Just remember you can do it!

Food Allergy Test Results

I was in for a surprise when I got my food allergy test results this past Wednesday. For the few days prior, my thoughts were wrought with fear that I may be allergic to garlic or nuts. I even started designing my garlic and nut super-villain tattoos. Thankfully those weren't on my list. The shock came with the 29 other items on my list! Moderate allergies Baker’s and brewer's yeast Pineapple Vanilla White mushroom Sensitivities Broccoli Buttermilk Carrots Casein Celery Cilantro Cinnamon Cod Dates Iceberg lettuce Kiwi Lamb Millet Onion Oregano Parsley Plum Potato Raspberry Rosemary Sage Strawberry Swiss cheese Turkey I was upset to see so many yummy foods on the list, including my go-to meat, turkey, and some of my usual spices. I was glad to see celery and onions, though. I’ve detested them for years and I always get laughed at for hating onions. Now I have a legitimate reason for hating them! I can live with this list. Well, I...

What's Your Song? Thursday IS BACK!

I realized that I'm in desperate need of some tunage. I'm trying a 3-day juice fast, and I want it to go well, so I need to be in a good mood - esp. since I hate most of the veggies in the juice but I know they are good for me. I have some good news - I have lost enough weight to take the 'W's off the end of my pant size, and I had to buy new, SMALLER undies. YAY! The hubby is very excited about the pair decorated with sledding penguins lol. Here's my song - Dirty Laundry by Bitter:Sweet. Love this song!!! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go dance with my dog and ignore all the dirty laundry that really needs to meet the washing machine :) Join us on this great link-up from Amber at Goodnight Moon !

So not a success 3 days without red meat, pork or poultry Don't think this happened either 1 week without eating anything on my sensitivity list SUCCESS!!
