nursing points

Image hosted by Photobucket.com


 


Not doing very well on the points system, have not followed it, eating too much take out late at night, not exercising, cannot lose the pregnancy weight if I keep this up.


 


I know it works when you work it, so I cannot figure out why i am emotionally NOT doing this. i ahve done it before.... Grrr this upsets me a bunch. I even ahve an extra 10 nursing points a day to eat right now. Grr. maybe a little at a time and I NEED to reread the dr phil book and get motivated.


 


I am loving taken care of my sweet baby boy though. :) he is a living doll... who just pooped, yikes, gotta run.

It's April 2ND!!!!

Yikes where did March go?

my goals this month are to actually FOLLOW the WW program and read the DR Phil book again.

*My April Goals:*
*read a page a day in the book.

Exercise in some way 3 times a week intentionally ( bike, ball pilates, walking now that the weather is better with DS's new stroller)

follow WW as close as possible

I'm am not as plugged in as I should be lately, this trying to get a grasp on the ADD thing has sort of taken my attention and anyone who knows anything about ADD knows I am probably hyper focusing on trying to understand ADD more, and finally know myself better. Kind of made me put my weight on the back burner ( not good cause I gained 4 pounds this week.) but on the plus side of trying to make a schedule for myself, I DID actually get on the bike once and exercise for 20 minutes

My hips/pelvis are hurting a lot, still post birth healing going on i think, I need to go slower perhaps.

kick start

my week is not going well. I am not really counting points, but not really eating over them too much either I don't think. But I have not been motivated enough to do any real exercise yet either.

I got the living room clean enough to push the coffee table out of the way to do some ball pilates but I have not done any yet. have not found the tape or been motivated to do any.

I was feeling pretty sick yesterday and my energy level is down. I spent the most part of my day with an upset stomach and running to the bathroom with the severe runs. Seems to have subsided for now, I hope DS does not get whatever it was that made me that way, he seems fine and is breastfeeding as normal, but I'm worried. I had weird dreams last night too ( always do when I'm sick) that my breasts dried up of all my milk and they were really small and hard when I went to feel them to see which one to start him off on. So now I keep being worried that he is not getting enough milk.

I need to keep reminding myself to drink enough water.

We went to see Robots tonight and I had a few handfuls of DD's popcorn and shared a small drink with her but that was all.

I need to get motivated and start exercising again but I just can't seem to "find the time" ( lame excuse I know)

I need to read the book but I'm having a hard time finding the time to do that as well and have now stuck it in the bathroom since it is the only time I can catch a few minutes alone ( more so the last two days then usual) Sorry if TMI

Anyway... i need more than a kick in the butt i think...

attacked by an easter bunny

I'm just getting back on track here though as I just gave birth to
my second child, a son, born on feb 2nd.

I am breastfeeding him so
I am on nursing points and following the old Winning points
program, as I have the books still and it works and well, it's
free. I get my support from this list and from reading dr phil
rather then at WW meetings in real life. IT just works better for me.


That said, I have gained two pounds this week, I was attacked by a
chocolate easter bunny in the department store yesterday

it was awful!!! He attacked my shopping cart and when I tried to tell him to get out of of there that I didn't want him, he jumped up in my face and his ear landed in my mouth!!!! The rest is history, I took him home and ate him while making supper :) come to think of it actually he WAS my supper, I cooked DH and DD some supper, I was too full on choco easter bunny to eat any more.

Just printed off my chart for next week to count my points and am planning on getting off this computer and doing Some house work so I can do my ball pilates in the living room tomorrow, Wednesday and Friday. ( that's my exercise commitment for the week.)


I Definitely need to follow my points better. But I can tell that
I am not taking is seriously yet. Trying to get the kick in the
pants I need to do so. hard after a 9 month free for all vacation
from counting points and exercising regularly.

I'm back

Well I decided today that I'd start with following points tomorrow.

I'm nursing so I'll be eating 32 to 37 points, and NOT 3 boxes of
cookies in a single weekend liek i just did this weekend munching
while flitting about the house!

I'll do an official weight in when I get up tomorrow, I have dusted
off my books and printed my quicktrack points calander for the
week :)

I feel positive about starting over, so I know it's time to do it
now and not wait unitl I see more weight gain and then feel i HAVE
to follow it.

I'm going to try and get 10 minutes of intentional exercise in three
times this weke to start off slow. Thinking I'll probably do the
stationary bike.

Once I'm back on track and in a schedule with that stuff and getthe
living room clean enough t do my ball pilates I'll be dusting off
the video and starting ove

I can;t wait :)

yoyo

Yep I gained 4 pounds.

I am not depressed about it I am mad at myself. I KNOW the program works when you work it, I even LOST 2 pounds last week when I thought I should not have.

I do not know what it is about me mentally that will not allow myself to weight less than 170, am back up to it again!

I am having a major mental block and no matter how much I read the book or try to figure out what my pay off is for staying at 170, cannot figure it out, if I could name it I could claim it and then change it, but I am stuck!

this sucks

I know I won't get any bigger than 170 because I have no clothes big enough to grow back into. than this size, so that is a bonus,but I am really bugged by my inability to stay on program after I hit 170ish,this happens to me every time.

am I afraid to be skinny?I don't know. I need to obviously step up the mental game and work at staying on points and exercising like I used to be doing.
