Sara No H's diary

Alright..just got home from work...worked 6-12 tonight. It was busy in that ER I must say...anyways..glad to be home...need to go to bed..my foot is killing me tonight. I have therapy again in the morning at 9:45a and then I finally get to see my foot doctor at 2pm. I am going to tell him I need something done about the arch of my foot..it hurts so bad. So bad that at therapy she had me quit doing certain things because it was hurting so bad...o well...i hated those trampoline excercise anyways. Alright...tomorrow is busy dont know if Ill check in with you all or not...945 therapy, 2pm foot dr, and then when I get home hope to jump on the statinary bike a little bit and then work 6p-6a. Then sleep on saturday and then wrok 6p-6a and sleep on sunday 6p-12a....off monday and then back at it for another five in a row! Grr!! Have a good weekend everyone.
 
wow, you have a busy schedule! good luck with the doctor, i think its great you are seeing a nutritionist! lovely to have something tailor made for you :)
 
Aight well i saw the doctor yesterday and now i have plantar fasciaitis (sp?) in the arch of my foot. its where a tendon is really tight and it needs loosened up or stretched out. grr...if its not one thing its another. im in for another busy night in the ER tonite...it was absolutely crazy in there last night...have a good night
 
Sorry to hear about your foot. How exactly do they loosen the tendon? With exercise? Hope your night in the ER isn't too overwhelming. Maybe things will calm down for you soon! :)
 
Aww Sara, sorry to hear about the foot! What a pain! :) Well hope you survived the ER last night.. Good luck on the weigh-in tomorrow!! :D
 
So I just finished my fourth night at the ER. Not bad...hecktic at times and all of Friday night, but all together good weekend to pick up overtime.

My doctor gave me some antiinflammatory med for my foot. It seemed to help this weekend. I was limping a little bit less than i have been so something must be working, which is great because its about time.

I have therapy in the morning at 9:45, school from 12:15-1:45 (we have check-offs on our skills tomorrow so wish me luck! Respiratory therapy school) and then I have to meet with my wt councelor at 3:45. I should get a ltitle idea on what Im doing bad, which I know but I just dont know how to change it all.

I did bad on Sunday morning. I got off work and my husband was awake and he wanted to go to breakfast. Keep in mind in the two and a half weeks I have not cheated on my diet except for the Valentine's day dinner. I went and I had scrambled eggs-but I got the egg beaters instead of normal eggs- and then it all went down hill from there. I had canadian bacon and pankakes and hash browns. I did not by any means eat all of it...there was a ton...Perkins always gives you so much for breakfast. But I did eat about 1/2 -3/4 of it all. I felt horrible after that because I have done so good and I didnt want to ruin that for myself...but not like i can sit and dwell on it forever. Then for dinner I made spaghetti. Not so bad but I had no ground turkey so I made ground chuck instead...I really need to go to the grocery because we are so out of food. That was all I had to make. So that isnt going to look good on my diary at the councelor meeting tomorrow. O well...I guess that is a question to ask...what do you all eat for breakfast when you go out for breakfast? I could have gotten oatmeal and toast but then why go out for breakfast? That just doesnt make sense to me. haha...but then again thats part of being ont he diet right? HA.

Ok so i need to go to bed...ill post tomorrow waht information I got from my wt councelor and Ill of course post my new weight...hopefully it will go down instead of up! :)
 
Hey

Hi

I just wanted to tell u that all of u r great , and that I keep reading ur diaries &they really inspire me.

keep going & do let anything let u down . just remember ur aim &it's really worth it.
 
Good luck with your weigh in. Don't beat yourself up too badly over that breakfast out. We all give in to temptation from time to time. If we didn't, we would probably go nuts. Breakfast out is hard. I am not sure there are many healthy alternatives for breakfast at reastraunts.

You sound as busy as ever. Keep up the good work. Hope you foot feels all better soon! :)
 
Ok so I lost another two pounds!! Thats awesome...I just wish I could do more with my foot and excercising. I was going to go to the grocery today because we have absolutly no food in the house and i was going to make my husband go with me because i wanted him to get his food because he has been complaining about not having any junk food in the house, but he works third shift and wouldnt get out of bed, so i didnt go. so now he can suffer with not having any food and he can find his own food because that just makes me mad. I feel like I get no support from him...his idea of support is telling me why are you eating that? I thought you were going to lose weight nto gain more...he says constructive criticism is better..but all it is doing is making me want to kick him!

I went to my councelor today. Her and the dietician are going to sit down next week and see if they can figure out a schedule for eating for me since my schedule with school and work is so damn hectic. Im sick of the stress that I have to put up with lately. I wanted to tell my husband all about the meeting because I feel like I got a lot accomplished today and he acted like he didnt even care.

Its just one of those days I guess, where no matter what you do you cant make yourself happy! And having no support system at home isnt helping. Im so glad I found this site, at least someone is giving me support. Sorry to vent but its just not a good day/
 
Well I have been working my butt off lately! I work tonight and then I am off work until Friday night. I thought about picking up another night but then I thought no I really need these days off. My husband has been home every evening and all weekend long..do you think he could touch the dishes or laundry at all? Yeah right...so looks like that is what I will be doing all my time off. I cannot stand lazy people, ecspecially that...for no reason...just would rather watch tv.
I have been doing okay with my food intake. This week wasnt the best because we were extremely short on money and we had absolutly no food in the house. I finally went to the grocery. (I havent been there since before my surgery on Nov 28...just picked up stuff here and there.) We spent 185.00, just for two people..but we were out of everything. Then at work last night we had a carry in and I did horrible with that. But I felt horrible with what I ate so I am back on track today. I am also back on track with my excercising. I was just so busy last week. Not that I didnt have time but I was so exhausted with the time i did have. anyways...aight im ready to do a quick workout and go to work again tonight....12 hours and Im off for four night ina row!! :)

Anyone watch American Idol on here? Chris all the way!!
 
Well I did bad this weekend and didnt loose or gain anything...So this week sucked! I am really mad at myself because I work so hard all week long and then I just blew it on the weekend. That just really upsets me.
I go see my dietician on Wednesday..maybe she can give me some more hinters on what I am doing wrong/right. As far as my life is concerned...still same ole boring self. work and school is my life and thats all i have done.

Meals for today....
Breakfast: mini bagel plain and banana with water
Lunch: tuna w/ 2TB sugar free sweet relish and 1 hard boiled egg, some celery, carrots and brocoli raw w/ light dip, and mangarine oranges 1/2 cup, and about 3/4 cup milk.
Dinner: salmon, 1/2 baked potato and some steamed broccoli. (bob evans) I am proud of myself here becasue I took half of my meal home with me...so now I have a good lunch tomorrow too! :) :)

Aight got to go lie down for a little bit because i have only had 3 hours of sleep and i want a full night's sleep tonite. update later with everyone.
 
hey Sara! Hope you have gotten some rest. Don't feel to bad about this weekend. I failed to stick to my guns too. Not only that, I totally binged, and I mean BINGED. It was not pretty. SO you're not alone!! But you are back at it this week. So just look forward not behind, because you can't change whats been done. :) So.. keep up the good work! :D
 
Thanks for the support everyone. My schedule has been hectic. I did get some sleep last night...I went to bed about 9p...I just couldnt stand it anymore...was out like a light and woke up three times in the middle of the night just to go to the bathroom. I guess all this water I have been drinking is finally getting out of me and Im not retaining it anymore. ha...I woke up this morning about 9am...so i got plenty of sleep...much needed sleep. I stepped on the scale and I was down four more pounds yesterday! I havent yet stepped on it today because I dont want to get down if i lost it all...or whatever. I also havent changed my sig just yet...gonna give it a few days. But that would mean the total is 12 pounds!! Im so excited...I can do this..it is feeling so great. I feel so much better about myself and I feel better physicaly too.

My food for today....
Breakfast: Cheerios w/ four strawberries cut up w/ 1/2 cup of milk
Snack: pretzels and 20oz water
Lunch: salmon (3oz), half baked potato, 1/2 cup steamed broccoli, and a dinner roll. and 1/2 cup applesauce (unsweetened). (leftover from bob's last night)
Dinner: hamburger pattie with relish (no bun) a salad with light rasp. walnut dressing, and 1/2 cup yogurt with 4 strawberries and 1/4 cup granola.
Snack: 10 vanilla wafers w/ 1/4 cup yogurt. (dannon light and fit yogurt)

Excercise today: Excercise bike for 30 minutes plus lifted some weights. I am a little sore already from the weights...wonder what tomorrow will bring...o jeez.....

Aight guys..i went to the dietician today...actually it was kinda waste of time for me because my councelor gave me all the info that she was going to give me. I got out of bed at 730am for nothing! well it wasnt really for nothing but anyways...now i have someone to call and ask questions to at least.

My food for today:
Breakfast: 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1 pc toast w/ peanut butter, and a glass of OJ
Lunch: tuna w/ relish and an egg, 2 pcs toast, cottage cheese and mixed fruit.
Snack: yogurt w/ granola
Dinner: Bread bowl salad from Perkins. (i had to get ranch dressing tho b/c their dressings suck! No low fat/ light other than italian and fat free ranch and im sorry but i cant do that stuff)
Snack: 1/8 cup raisins

Not bad i dotn think...off to shop tomorrow :) :)...finally going to get me some new shoes!! I cant wait...i need them badly with this foot thing i got going on.
 
Doing Good Girlfriend Lets Rock!! Oh Coolies On The New Shoes Sounds Great!!!
 
Aight guys....a good day again...I feel like Im getting this diet thing down so far....I have a new ticker with my sig. Its my goal for the current challenge. I didnt get to work out today...I went shopping and walked a big mall though...does that count?? I went and spent great time with my mom. We both got new shoes. I got a pair of New Balance. My doctor suggested those. After walking all day in them...Im still a little unsure though..but I think its because they are actually wide enough and Im not used to having so much room in the toe. They are so very comfotable though. Tomorrow night at work will be the test. I have two months...if I dont like them after two months or during those two months I can take them back and they will do an exchange. So im hoping that they work out so i dont have to drive another 1 1/2 hours to get there. I went to this store because they sell up to a size 13 in womens...and they have five different widths. So i knew they would have my size (12 wide). And that is what they measured me at too. So all in all it worked out pretty good for me. I also bought me some bath and body lotion and sprays and stuff....Ive lost about 10 pounds and IM starting to feel good about myself with that weight loss. A little bit at a time and pretty soon ill be buying myself so much stuff we will be broke! haha...

Today was pretty good with the food....
Breakfast: a plain mini bagel and a bottle of water
Lunch: soup (white bean and chicken chili-awesome!) and salad bar from Ruby's Tuesdays. just had salad and some fruit. water
Dinner: chicken and broccoli spaghetti (whole wheat) with some cottage cheese and fruit and water. yogurt with 1/4 cup granola with strawberries cut up.
Snack: peanut butter crackers and more water

I def. am not having any trouble getting my water in. Im actually starting to love water. I really really would like to get a pass to our gym which is only 1 block away but my husband feels it is too much money. So I have been going over to his uncles which is across the street from the gym to do some excercise bike and weights. Hopefully then by the time it is warm...Ill be able to run outside without feeling like Im going to die.

Aight so Im done talking for today....I may not be able to check up for a while on here...I have to work the next two nights 12 hours....so maybe sunday ill update. Have a good weekend!!
 
Aight guys...IM here again..just got off work...im a little sleepy so Ill post better and more later...just wanted to drop in and say IM still alive....aight be back on later because I have some venting to do about my husband (grr). Im off to get so zzzzzzz's :)
