I helps to read your blog. I still can't figure out how you're not hungry! I definitely eat plenty of healthy filling foods--too much of them--way more than 1500 cal worth, and I'm still starving.Annelihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975395651445339468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-14659673235778048742010-07-23T13:43:48.404-05:002010-07-23T13:43:48.404-05:00I finally have to respond.

I'm on day 254 (and plan to read the rest this weekend) and just have to comment on exercising in the A.M. That's the only way I can get my workouts in before work. Because if something happens during the day I don't have to worry about missing any workouts at all! <br /> Micky D's is the best for those soft serve ice cream cones.

It's over, lesson learned. What was the lesson? Manage my time better. . ."<br /><br />I'll remember that if you do as well! I just read your comment on my page and I replied say that it made me wanna shout GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! So I'll come on over and shout...<br /><br />GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!! <br />Just be glad that you've committed yourself to not only working out but hitting the gym to do so! Us "wannabe home workout people" have the dilemma of being able to say "oh well, I'll just work out later" and then, we don't at all.<br /><br /> I know I should be working out more and I just do NOT know what's stopping me. Perhaps I'm trying to start off one step at a time so I'm not overwhelming myself and then shutting down again like I've done in the past so far. <br /><br />Oh, I LOVE your McDonalds situation!! the drive thru as you've read on my blog has been my downfall for so long!!! I have to avoid it altogether...not for me, my son, my mom, no one! <br /><br />*pat on your back* you'd be surprised how our bodies will make the decision to rest for us! you sitting awake and next thing you know you're waking up trying to remember what day it is because you slipped into a 4 hour mini-coma!ArtistAmMe https://www.blogger.com/profile/05312883389357398781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-11188299765392249602009-05-27T12:21:08.041-05:002009-05-27T12:21:08.041-05:00Sean you are doing great.

I like the calories on the menu idea myself. I think it would be really helpful. One day a few friends from work and I went to Applebee's for lunch and had one of the chicken wraps and come to find out it was over 1400 calories just in that one wrap, that was with out the small side order of fries that came with it that came in at 400 calories. If I would have know that wrap had that many calories there is no way I would have eaten it. But we live and learn and make better decisions the next time. Anyways good luck today when you weigh-can't wait to have the text message show up on my screen and see how much you have lost the last 2 weeks!Tobynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-80522272432304418882009-05-27T11:21:22.645-05:002009-05-27T11:21:22.645-05:00One missed gym session isn't the end of the world....One missed gym session isn't the end of the world.

Life happens...besides...you'll have great weigh-in results anyway! You apparently needed the sleep. Look on the bright side...you've burned off a lot of calories kicking your own ass, you've set a goal to better manage your schedule, AND you've made your cousin very happy because now she can get to bed at a descent hour since she won't have to wait up till all hours of the night for this blog that she's so addicted to it she thinks she needs her SeanBlog fix before she can sleep!! .. I like the calorie counts on the menu idea! That would be great! I got a big chuckle out of your McD story...visualizing it and knowing its something you would do made me laugh right out loud! Your humor is super-sized for sure! .. I like having these smilies. It sorta helps divide the paragraphs since there are no line breaks in the comment field. Did I share my friends grilled turkey recipe the other day? If not, I will...it's awesome! I have found my craving for chocolate has lessened a lot! I always keep tootsie rolls or mini snickers around just in case I get a craving because one or two of those will usually take care of it...otherwise, the craving will get so bad I'll go buy an entire bar and eat every bite! I haven't had tootsies or snickers in a long while because my friend gave me a small package of kisses for valentines...and I still some of them after 3 1/2 months! So, I"m doing good there! Good luck on the weigh in...can't wait for the results! I'm really proud of you! YOU DA MAN!!!

I wish we hadn't played so long the other night. I think that may have contributed to your being up late the other night and making you so incredibly tired. But perhpas you will be more on track with your sleep now. Getting up early and doing a 5 k this morning, hopefully you will be done and tired by 9:45 and be ready to lie down. Maybe this is just what you needed to start a good sleep schedule. You just have to fight the urge to take a nap at 6:45 again today. :-)Rachelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-91136599553491418542009-05-27T09:41:27.389-05:002009-05-27T09:41:27.389-05:00Wow- I can only wish my mistakes were sleeping ins...Wow- I can only wish my mistakes were sleeping instead of working out!

Can't wait to hear about the next weigh-in. BTW--following your advice, I have not stepped on the scales since Saturday and I won't until June 5. I will have to do it a day early, because we will be out of town on Saturday. Looking forward to seeing a greater response after two weeks. It ain't easy. I've been weighing almost everyday for 18 mos. Now, if I could just quit eating after dark (my snack happy time).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
