Day 31 and 32

I'm suppose publish a post everyday but I'm failing at it.  When I started this weight loss journey I never set a goal and I had not idea why I wanted to do this.  I was just tired of being fat and buying clothes in the plus size department.  I think that is the main reason why I keep failing at it.  My reason for losing weight has to be more than just for superficial reasons.  I have to make a commitment to get healthy.  I don't have any health problem such as high blood pressure, diabetes or high cholesterol etc.  I don't want to develop any health problems as I get older so I need to start doing something now.

Day 32

Wow, it's been more than 30 days since I started back on my weight loss journey.  I did not do well last week.  I haven't worked out for a while and I'm not eating healthy.  I ate so much fried foods this past week that I gained back all the weight I have lost this year.  I am back in the 250's.

Day 30

5/27/12

It's Sunday and tomorrow is a holiday so no work.  I'm excited about that.  Tomorrow is the day I start anew with my weight loss journey.  I plan to workout everyday this week, even if it's just going for a walk.  Walking 3 miles is more than enough exercise for a day.

I'm not even going to say what I ate today because it was out of control.

Day 29

5/26/12

It's official, spring has arrived in NYC.  It is hot and humid today, but I'm not complaining.  The rain was bringing me down and making me depressed.  Emotionally I'm having a good day today but nutritionally I'm having a bad day.

I ate 3 pastelitos for breakfast.  A pastelitos is a pastry type thing that is stuffed with either cheese, meat or chicken and then deep fried until it's golden, yum.  I had 2 cheese and 1 beef with a large ice coffee from dunkin donuts with 4 packets of splenda.  For lunch I had french fries with 10 fried shrimp and 1 serving of banana pudding that I bought from Magnolia bakery.

Day 28

Today I feel so stressed and depressed.  Can you feel both these things at the same time?  Even though I only have to work 3.5 hours today it seems like a long time.  I just want to go home and hide under my covers.

I did not track my food today.  Taking the weekend off and starting new on Monday.  Hopefully I will have my mind right by Monday.
