Two Pounds...WTF?

astrongnewme wrote Oct 21, 2011 : Since Gary and I are going out tonight, I went ahead and weighed in this morning.  I was so disappointed to see a nearly two pound gain.  What the hell?!  I worked out each day this week.  I really didn't expect a gain. We went out to eat ... more »

"Someday"

astrongnewme wrote Aug 25, 2011 : I have become complacent.  There hasn't been a fire beneath me for quite some time.  It occurred to me that I have come to accept being overweight and out of shape, and that made me sit up and shake the dust from my head!  Hell, no.  Have I r... more »

I Hate You, Shin Splints

astrongnewme wrote Jun 02, 2011 : Running.  I love it.  I hate it.  I have often wondered, in the middle of a run, what on earth possessed me to even start that particular activity.  Other days, I have felt so strong and powerful, hitting my stride, and wondered why I don't d... more »

Not Sure Why I'm Here

astrongnewme wrote Apr 08, 2011 : This week, beyond a doubt, I let stress get to me...not only get to me, but pick me up, sling me about, stomp on me, grind me into the dirt.  Too much going on, too much weighing on me (no pun intended), particularly at work, where I feel like I a... more »

mom2boys wrote Mar 02, 2011 : So 2 weeks ago I reached my mini-goal of 165 and was thrilled. Then got sick and fell off the wagon for a few days-didn't eat well and didn't exercise. That was the beginning of last week. Starting last Wed I got back on the wagon and have been eatin... more »

Do or Die: End of My Rope

astrongnewme wrote Feb 18, 2011 : What to even say...I've managed, once again, to get insanely close to my goal and then throw it away like a jackass.  Frustrated, angry, embarrassed...these words don't even cover it. After weigh-in, I just wanted to pull the covers back up o... more »

Are you Struggling? Come to our New Emergency Room! STAT!

astrongnewme wrote Feb 16, 2011 : I have noticed that so many people here are struggling lately, especially after Valentine's Day and the fancy dinners and boxes of chocolates involved.  Blogging about our struggles helps us get some support, and booster notes are wonderful, but I... more »

Just What I Need *sigh*

astrongnewme wrote Jan 31, 2011 : What do I need to spur me on to work really hard this week, watch my food diary, and make sure I get a great start to hitting goal weight this month?  Sure as hell not getting sick!  But I woke up this morning with that telltale hit-by-a-truck feel... more »
