1. I am craving every kind of sweet, terribly bad for you food there is. 2. This could only mean one thing…that pesky monthly visitor is close. 3.  Don’t get me wrong, I like sweets, but I don’t have a big sweet tooth EXCEPT during this time of the month.

4. Unless it’s carrot cake.  Then all bets […]

1.  I have been doing horrible with my eating and exercise. 2. This injury in my ass is really a pain in the ass. My muscle is spasming every time I go from sitting to standing. I have tried a few different things to help, only it hasn’t helped.

3. I don’t know how I am going […]

My fingers are swollen like little sausages. Could it be due to the fact that I have been inhaling  Doritos like the world is about to end? Nah. Or maybe because my “friendly” visitor is well, visiting? Nah. My heart hasn’t been into eating healthy and exercising since we ended the last challenge.

I need these challenges to keep my motivated […]

Yes, I realize that today is Tuesday but I very badly need to “confess”.

I am in an exercise funk. My last day to SHRED was Thursday. I have not shredded since and I have no desire to. I put my exercise clothes on this morning in hopes that by wearing them, I would feel motivated to shred.

I do […]

I am STILL shredding. I did Day 1 of Level 3 yesterday and TODAY, my body is so sore. That’s OK. IT means that I am working it out. I have been doing pretty good with the eating aspect of losing weight. BUT, around 10pm most evenings, I have this insane craving for crunchy peanut butter.

Crunchy peanut butter is my […]

I missed True Confessions last week…where was I?  Probably shredding!  Anyway, here are my true confessions, boring as they may be.

Last week, I had horrible snack munchi cravings in the evenings. I gave in almost every night to those cravings. Except for last night. I ate dinner at 5:30pm and then only had an orange in the evening.

I […]

Once again, it’s time for some fessing up

I am still weighing myself everyday. Sometimes more than once a day. My weight is going up instead of down this week. That really pisses me off because I’m doing so good this week. I’ve even worked out or gone hiking most days. And I never work out. Phooey.

For dinner tonight, […]

I realize that Monday is more than half over- sorry!  Time slipped away from me. 
Here are my confessions….

My baby is 6 months old and 16lbs 12oz.  Oh where does the time fly? I have been fairly good with watching what I eat. Except for yesterday at my cousin’s BBQ. I ate TWO hamburgers. They were divine.

However, those burgers were really […]

I got a new range and decided to try out the convection feature. I baked cupcakes. They were mini cupcakes. I ate more than I care to admit. Well, I actually can’t admit how many I ate because I lost track. They were the best cupcakes EVER.

I won’t be baking anything for a long time because obviously I have […]

My son is almost six months old and I am down to only nursing him once a day, in the morning. A few weeks ago when I had to start supplementing due to low milk supply, I was very upset. Now, I am over it. He is much happier now with his fuller tummy.

The past few days have […]
