♡☆♡Lets lose weight♡☆♡

Morning

Accidently slept in till 6:20. So no pacing, boo! I'll have to pace later.

I weighed myself, 140.2 still. Could be temporary bloating from creatine.

Got kiddos up and fed and off to school. I'm in a bad mood this morning, not sure why, maybe cuz I didn't get to pace this morning?

Took Bear out for a walk, had my pb and sliced banana toast for brekky, now I'm going to vacuum and mop while listening to a fitness podcast.

----------

Finished my chores and working out. I'm still a little concerned I'm eating too much since I didn't lose weight this week. So I'm dropping my calories to 1300. I estimate to the best of my ability for supper, but I could be under estimating so it's best I count 1300.

Now I'm pacing to hit my 15k steps.

maybe get a cheap treadmill so you don't have to walk back and forth. they have come down a lot over the years.
 
Morning

Up at 5, showered, pacing and 2 ice coffees.

My weight was UP today, 141! Wtf. It's gotta be the creatine. I want to stop taking it, but I know it's temporary, it's impossible to gain weight on 1300 cals. So I'll try to wait it out, it just sucks tho.

----------

I'm going back to 1500 cals. I need the protein. With how active I am, I know the weight gain is not fat but water weight, it can last weeks. But I'm going to stop weighting myself for a while and concentrate on fitness, eating healthy and protein.

I'm not grumpy today! But I am looking forward to being alone today. Working out, TV and a nap😁

----------

Got kiddos up and fed and off to school. Ran an errand, took Bear out for a walk, had cinnamon raisin toast with pb and sliced banana for brekky, chores and worked out.

Did bare minimum chores today, my body is tired. I did 20 mins on the treadmill then worked abs. I did not do pilates today bc my legs were too tired. Once I was done abs, I hopped back on the treadmill for my last 2k steps. But before then, I started getting a migraine. Half of one eye starts to go blurry. So I took my pain killers.

----------

Got 15k steps by 10:30. Then organized a little bit then did laundry. Then I took a well needed nap.
 
Afternoon

I slept for an hr and my headache is almost gone. Then I ate lunch, 3 eggs, a yogurt and 2 iced coffees. Then I sat on the couch with Bear watching my Beverly Hills show.

----------

I'm going to stop taking creatine. I don't want to deal with the water weight anymore. Hopefully I'll see a big drop in weight over the next few days.

It's 1:45 and I don't feel well mentally, I cant wait to have a hoot later.

----------

Got kiddos from school, came home and we did homework. Then I gave them a snack, and I had a 2 rice cakes. A caramel chocolate chip and plain with pb and cinnamon. So good.

I'm excited to workout tomorrow! I'm going to do pilates and stick with it. I miss pilates and a love it. I need my rest daysnthk, so I'm going to do it just Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

----------

Hubs got home at 5:15! Yay! I love when road ban is on, there isn't much to do so he's home early.

Supper will be chicken fingers, fries (none for me) and broccoli. Hot sauce for dipping sauce 😁

Hubs says to keep going with creatine and have patience. The bloating and water weight will go away eventually. It's good for mental health too, which is why I started supplementing with it.

----------

Supper was good. Now just hanging out with the kids.

I'm also feeling less puffy amd bloated. Tmi sorry, but I peed a lot this afternoon, so hopefully I got rid of the water weight.

-----------

Got kiddos in bed, had some dried cranberries and raisins and a rice cake. Then went to bed. Ended the day with 18k steps.

Morning

Up at 5, skipped my shower, pacing and 2 iced coffees. I woke up with a headache so I took an aleve and it went away.

Got kids up at 7, fed and off to school. Came home and took Bear out for a walk, had a slice of cinnamon raisin toast with pb and sliced banana, it's so good. Then I did laundry, treadmill and pilates. Did the rest of my chores and baked banana bread.

Now I'm watching my my show and snuggling with Bear.

I've noticed I'm slimming down, it's so exciting! Even tho the scale isn't moving, my body is changing.
 
Afternoon

I had 3 eggs, a yogurt and 2 iced coffees for lunch. Then I decided to workout my upper body since pilates doesn't do that, and I loved it! Now I wanna go back to doing light weights. Why am I so indecisive?! It's so annoying to live this way. It's getting worse as I get older. So here and now, I vow to do

20 min full body workout Mon, Wed, Fri with 7lb weights
1500 cals a day
15k steps a day
Keep taking creatine

There, my mind is made up. I feel good about it. I also am not going to weigh myself very often. I don't want to become obsessed with the number, as long as I slim down (which I am) it's all good.

----------

I watched the new movie 'Barbie', it was terrible 😂

Then I got the kids, did reading and some Easter egg art stuff. Now I'm chillin on my phone.

I've decided too, I'm giving up my noon time coffee. I just have to pee so much and it's annoying lol.

----------

Hubs got home at 5:15! Yay! Just in time for my anxiety to start. I'm anxious about soccer. I don't know when or where we pick up jerseys, how will we know what team they're on? So I emailed them to make me feel better. And I'm anxious over a busy end of the month. Back to Back days, celebrating hubs bday, soccer, appt 2 hrs away so no school for the kids, soccer. A busy couple days. But I'm trying to think of the now, but because I'm already anxious, I'm now anxious about cooking supper. Oh, maybe I won't get off my meds, cuz I was scared of life 24/7, now it's just sometimes.

----------

Supper was sausages, perogies (none for me) and cauliflower. It was ok, I'm not a big fan of sausage. But I am feeling better after some food and a hoot.

----------

Gave the kids a fruit bowl for a snack, put them to bed, had 2 rice cake then went gk bed. Ended the day with 18k steps.
 
Morning

I binged last night right before bed. 6 cookies. I don't know why... oh well, today is a new day.

Up at 5, showered, pacing and 2 iced coffees. I paced for 1.5 hrs.

----------

Got kiddos up at 7 and fed them brekky. Then I did laundry and cleaned kitty litter.

I'm feeling sad and empty today. Not sure why. But it's my last day alone for 10 days. Kids are off school tomorrow and all of next week, BUT my hubs is also taking next week off, so yay!

----------

Got kiddos off to school, picked up some more eggs, no dog walk today, it's a little chilly today. So I did a couple chores and went on the treadmill for 20 mins. It's 9:45 and I have 12k steps. Now it's time to take out the garbage and fold laundry.

----------

Finished everything by 10:15. I did bare minimum chores today, I've been tired lately. I think my indecisiveness is making me tired. So I'm just laying down on the couch watching my show.
 
Afternoon



Fell asleep for 1.5 hrs. Woke up disoriented lol. Then I made lunch. Then my hubs came home! Yay. So what do I do? Go have a hoot 😂 I'm happily stoned now 🙃.



Hubs went to lie down so I watched my 'Beverly Hills' show.



----------



Went and got kids, came home and had a snack. I had a rice cake. Now just gonna chill with the kids till it's time to cook supper.



Hubs and I talked about how I'm feeling anxious and sad. He thinks it's from my diet and I agree. Usually dieting messes with me mentally.



Then I had another hoot at 5.



----------



Supper was chicken pasta, it was ok. I'm not really excited about food anymore.



Gave the kids a snack and put them to bed, then had a rice cake, got my weekly massage and went to bed. I'm giving myself a few days for the creatine water weight to go away before I weight myself.



Ended with 15k steps.
 
Morning



Oiy, binged on 6 cookies before bed. It was a tough day mentally and I just caved. But I did weigh myself, 141 still, so hopefully (without anymore binging) I'm finally losing some weight.



Up at 5, showered and paced for a while while having 2 iced coffees.



I was so tired last night, coffee at noon helps keep me awake, but it makes me have to pee a lot, so I'm going to pick up some caffeine pills to take. I hate getting tired at supper and passing out early.



----------



It's 7:30 am and I already have 10k steps. I wanted to do more but I'm not feeling well. I feel dizzy and disoriented, I almost fell over getting into the shower this morning.




----------



It's 8:30 and hubs just woke up. I feel like utter crap today, no Good Friday church service for me.



I had brekky, a slice of cinnamon raisin toast with pb and sliced banana and cinnamon. It didn't taste as good as normal, probably cuz I'm not feeling well. So the only things I'm doing today is laundry (started it already), kitty litter (which I've done) and dishes later. I'm staying in my pj's and gonna relax, watch my show, which is thinspo for me and have a nap later.



----------




Hubs went out to run some errands and I was gonna work out, but I don't feel up to it, so I paced instead for 20 mins. I'm at 14k now.



Then I had lunch, plain cinnamon raisin toast, a yogurt and 2 iced coffees. Then I laid down for a nap.
 
Afternoon

Took a 2 hr nap, now I'm up and hubs is lying down. I still feel disoriented. But I'm sitting at the table watching my show while the kids play with slime.

----------

I continued to feel like crap and watch my show until hubs got up at 3:45. Then I had a bath.

----------

My bath relaxed me a lot but I still feel like crap. So at 5 I had a hoot. It did not make me feel better.

Then I cooked supper, fish, fries and veggies. But I just had 2 plain peices of cinnamon raisin toast. After supper I had another hoot and felt completely better. Maybe 1500 cals isn't enough for how active I am? It's a 500 cal deficient, maybe that's not enough? I'll keep an eye on it.

Then I hung out with the kids till bedtime.

I got my weights out cuz I am going to workout as soon as I wake up, before pacing. 20 mins pilates, which included abs and then upper body. The pilates video I do is basically just lower body and abs.

Got kiddos in bed, had 2 rice cakes to snack on, watched bikini prep videos and went to bed.
 
Morning

Up at 5, did pilates and pacing while having 2 iced coffees.

I still feel under the weather today. My head just feels weird, lightheaded and empty.

I'm low key having anxiety, we are having an early Easter supper with family. It's only 2 extra people, but still. But, my SIL and BIL are bringing a smoked turkey, and I'm doing a small ham in the crock pot. Easy. Then I'm doing mashed potatoes and gravy, again, easy. But any cooking makes me nervous.

Also I'm cutting my pacing from 15k to 10k. I think I might be working out too much and that's why I feel dizzy and disoriented. I'm still having 1500 cals tho.

----------

Hubs got up at 7:45, yay, early for him. So I had my everything shower then had brekky.

I'm feeling extremely sad right now. I just don't want to be doing life anymore. I don't want to workout, I want to eat what I want...ugh this sucks.

----------

Got some chores done, now just dishes and I'm gonna use roomba to vacuum.

----------

Lazed around for the morning and talked with my hubs about life stuff. He tries to help me out as much as possible. I told him all I want is a cookie, so we think my weird and sad feeling might be from no sugar from treats. It's amazing how these little things can have such a huge impact on us mentally.
 
Morning

141 still! Fml, why won't the weight come off? Ok, back to not weighing myself and going by how clothes fit.

Up at 5, showered, pacing while having 2 iced coffees.

I've just been feeling off still. I'm not dizzy and disoriented anymore, I must've been under the weather but I'm missing my routine. Hubs sleeps in, so chores and dog walk are later than normal, which sucks. But something good tho to look forward to, my hubs fixed my Dyson cordless vacuum yesterday! It broke like 4 months ago and I've been using a crappy $30 corded one that does not do a good job. So I'm excited to vacuum today!

Then I had brekky. Cinnamon raisin toast with pb and sliced banana and cinnamon

----------

Vacuumed, mopped, did laundry and cleaned kitty litter. Then we all took Bear for a walk. Bear was really excited.

----------

Back from our walk and I'm so annoyed. I've been annoyed since 8ish, not sure why. Hubs has to go out for a bit, so I worked out. I didn't want to at first but as soon as I started, I was happy I did. I love pilates! I'm in a good mood now.
 
Afternoon

Baked banana bread with my 1 kid, had lunch, 2 eggs, a yogurt and chocolate milk, then did dishes while sipping an iced black coffee for energy.

I'm in a good mood now, I feel accomplished! A big part of that was working out. Now it's time to relax. MIL is coming over for supper tonight, we will be having left overs from Easter. Oh speaking of Easter, supper turned out really good. I did not care about what I ate. It was a good time.

But in preparation for tonight, I weighed out my portion of turkey cuz I'm counting my calories. Hubs got a pie for tonight that I'll skip tho.

So I was thinking of taking a pre workout for energy in the afternoon, but after researching it, I decided against it, it can cause the jitters and anxiety and I definitely don't need more of that lol. So I'm having 1 black iced coffee at lunch to give me some energy. Hopefully it'll work, I fell asleep at 8:30 last night. I definitely want to stay up till 9:30-10.

----------

I failed at no pot at 3. I was downstairs switching laundry and just decided it would be a good idea to get stoned. So I did. And in that moment, I felt fine about that decision, then my hubs called from his man cave "I heard that", so I immediately felt guilty. But he was just joking but still, I want to quit.

Then MIL came over and we played a few card games...she won all of them lol. Then the kids set the table.

----------

Supper was Easter left overs. I weighed out my turkey before hand, 4oz. Then some coslaw and veggies. Good supper! Although I had a little more coslaw then I should've, but it's ok. But I also had a slice of pie.

----------

Got kiddos in bed, and yes, I had another hoot, then I had a rice cake to snack on, even tho I wasn't hungry, I still wanted something crunchy. Then I went to bed.
 
Morning

Up at 5, skipped my shower, I will later, pilates, pacing and 2 iced coffees with milk and sugar.

I have decided on doing pilates 5-6x a week instead of 3x. Pilates is like meditation for me. All I feel is the burn and my mind clears and I'm relaxed. I need this everyday, yes maybe even Sunday, to start my day right... ya I've decided 7x a week. I think about laboring jobs, they lift heavy things all the time and are strong, so I could do my little ankle weigh everyday.

----------

At 8 I had brekky. My usual cinnamon raisin toast with pb and sliced banana and cinnamon. It's so good!

----------

Got my basic chores done and it's only 9:20. I still have some laundry to do and dishes but other than that, I'm done. Then I had a shower.

I've been obsessed with watching bikini prep videos and they motivate me to get in good shape!

Then I laid down at 10:30 for a nap.
 
Afternoon

Slept for 1.5hrs, then made lunch. 3 eggs, a yogurt and 2 slices of mini banana bread. I could've left the banana bread but I ate some...it's done

----------

Watched 'the real housewives of Beverly Hills' and bikini prep videos while hubs laid down. Then at 2 I had 2 oreo cookies...and a hoot🙄 I'm finding it hard to give up pot. And with my hubs home all week, it's even harder. And because I have no self control, I got too stoned. I'm glad I have 1.5 hrs to sober up before going to the escape room.

----------

The escape room was not what I thought it was. I thought we'd have to escape the room, but it was clues to a puzzle we had to solve. Still fun tho.

Once we got home I ate 2 rice and 2 chocolate eggs. I shouldn't of... but I did.

Hubs went out for a haircut, so I paced and continued to pace when he got home and I cooked supper. But I did have another hoot, my stomach was hurting.

----------

Supper was beef stir fry, 1/2 cup rice, 1/3 cup meat and veggies, so 1 cup in total. And once the kids go to bed, I'll have rice cakes.

Ended the day with a lot more steps than I intended. 21.5k. No wonder my legs are sore.
 
Morning

Up at 5, skipped my shower, I will later, 20 mins pilates then pacing.

----------

Hubs got up at 8:30, so I made brekky, cinnamon raisin toast with pb and sliced banana and cinnamon, then sat down for a bit before I shower. I got 14k steps this morning!

----------

Finished my chores by 10am and I have 15k steps. Then I played with Bear for a little bit before I watched 'the real housewives of Beverly Hills'.

----------

I decided to have a quick 30 min nap at the table. It was a good power nap, I feel less tired now.

Now I'm making lunch for my kids.
 
Afternoon



At noon I had a deli meat sandwich and chocolate milk, mmm so good. But it didn't feel like enough, but it'll have to do. I also had a black iced coffee...not so good but necessary for energy this afternoon and evening.



Then I did dishes when I finished eating and watched my show. I had a cbd hoot cuz my stomach was bothering me.



At 1, my one kid had a friend come over. And my stomach felt better after my cbd hoot.



I feel weird tho. Ever since I woke up from my nap, I feel off. I don't feel real, I hate this feeling. It's like I'm not in my own body. And it sucks cuz I have hyper little kids running around. Normally my kids stay quiet playing games, so it's hectic, but I'm sitting at the kitchen table keeping an eye on them while I watch my show.



I'm not looking forward to supper, gross sausage. I don't like sausage but it's a low calorie meal, and the family likes it, so I make it.



----------



Kids friend left at 3:30, then we had a snack. My stomach started bothering me so I had a hoot. I'm just gonna have toast with butter and jam on it for supper. I don't like sausage and it doesn't sit well in my stomach on good days, so it's probably a good idea to skip it. So calories will be around 1700.



Then we went out to do a little grocery shop.



Came home and I had a hoot😮‍💨 I'm so mad at myself 😠 why am I so weak?! No more! That's it, I quit pot.



So bc pot takes away all pain, my legs aren't sore anymore, so I'm pacing, I started at 17k.



----------



Omg! I'm so excited! I worked out my calories so I can have hazelnut cream in my iced coffee instead of milk! Omg I'm so happy😁 That'll be a great way to start my day.



For supper I had 3 pieces of toast with butter and jam. I should've just had 2 but it tastes so good, so I had 3. Back at it tomorrow...yay creamy iced coffee tomorrow!!



----------



Once dishes were done, I paced some more. Then we put the kids to bed and I crashed early. Ended the day with 22.5k steps
 
Morning

Up at 5, skipped my shower, no shower today, don't feel like it. I feel quite tired and sad this morning, not sure why I feel sad...I'm having creamy iced coffee! That should make me happy, but it's not as good as I remember...so boo.

I paced till 6:20 before my legs got too tired. I have 6300 steps. Then I took an hr nap at the kitchen table lol. Felt nice. Then I paced some more.

----------

At 9, I had brekky, my usual toast, so good. I also have 12k steps. Hubs got up and I got dressed and did chores.

Also, I was disappointed with my iced coffee, it wasn't as good as I remembered. So I'm going to go back to milk and sugar, rather than cream and sugar.

----------

I got 15k steps by 10:30 and I also took the kids and 🐻 out to the backyard. Bear was so excited to play fetch!
 
Afternoon

Came back in at noon and had lunch. Today was 3 eggs, a fruit bar and 1 oreo cookie.

----------

Fell asleep for an hr at the kitchen table 🤣 I love sleeping there. Then I had 2 rice cakes and my kid gave me a Cadbury cream egg. It was ok, but I'm skipping my rice cakes tonight so I'm not over on my calories.

Then I did 20 mins pilates. I love doing it everyday, or most days, it just makes me feel so good. I used ankle weights for a little resistance and I can always feel the burn in my butt lol.

Right when I finished, my MIL came over cuz we are taking the kids out biking without their training wheels! Let's see how they do.

----------

Well, we got to the bike path, had a little laugh with my hubs riding one of the bikes, but then my oldest kid tripped and fell and broke his arm! We are at the hospital now.

----------

Well, it's a bad break that requires surgery in town 2 hours away. We spent 3 hrs at our hospital then I rode with my kid in an ambulance to the other hospital. It was a cool ride!

So diet wise I'm not sure what I'm gonna eat or from where. The hospital cafeteria will be closed by the time we get there, so hubs will have to get me something, cuz I'm hungry.

----------

Got settled in the hospital room and I had a ham and cheese croissant sandwich, a yogurt and a coke zero.
