Keeping it Strong

With State Convention the week before and then headed to Tampico that weekend I did horrible with food and exercising. I have learned though who is around reflects on how well you will do, and the people I was around 2 weeks ago were no help for me to maintain my diet and exercise. Tampico was fun and hot I think I might have sweated everything I ate. I did good on drinking pop, but of course in southern indiana there is always alcohol to be drank. I indulged my self of course along with the Tampico fire department 's imfamous fish sandwhiches. I did badly Friday night probably had 5 fried fish sandwhiches. I was impressed my stomach handled them so well due it hating fried anything. Was still bad choices and no mental control, and I have concluded that when you drink it has the same affect as mary jane, I wouldn't know personally just from watching tv shows that perceive it that way, I always want to eat! I felt like last week I was starting over again, which is my own fault. Last week I did amazing!!! I worked out on my elliptical because it was just too freaking hot to walk outside. I worked out at least a half hour everyday except for Wednesday. I did well on my calories staying between 1500-1700 calories a day. I need to start working better on them due to eating more calories but after you take away calories burned working out comes to 1500-1700. Which in reality gets me no where. I have taken the slim fast approach which has always worked for me in the past. I drink one for breakfast and dinner, and now that the BF will be coming home at night more often and not at my parents house I can make a sensible low calorie meal and not be eating there all the time. You would think with my dad being diabetic since I was in middle school we'd all be scrawny shits!!! We were raised on skim milk, fat free everything, and basically sugar free or mom puts in splenda instead. As I come to realize it all about portion size, and we allen's just love our food. I am hoping for better results this week!!! I am starting to think my scales doesn't work because it has been stuck on 260 forever!!! Which has always been where I could get to, but never passed before. I am bound and determine to get past it!!! On a positive note my clothes are fitting better, my tight jeans I can button standing up now! Still got my tire going on but I look at that as a positive since the scales isn't creeping down. Now I have concluded I need to buy a measuring tape and start measuring my waist and such, and watch the numbers go down from there as well. Here is to keeping it strong!!
