so this sucks....

yep, I fell off the bandwagon for a little while, and it shows. I weighed myself this morning, and I wanted to cry. I am back up to 316.1lbs. This week though I have been trying alot more to consciously watch what I am eating! I am so proud of myself I cooked dinner 3 days in a row! Big accomplishment for me. and one of the nights we had a delicious Chicken Salad with cucumbers and carrots and cheese and this super yummy dressing called green goddess. It's a kraft dressing, it's amazing! Anyways, I am going to sign up for a biggest loser challenge with my Bestie amber and her mom on july 31st. We all put in 20 bucks and they try to get 20 people to join. Then we all have to work out, eat better, and lose weight. At the end of 3 months, we all weigh in and the person with the highest percentage of weight loss wins the pot, which if there is 20 people, it's about 400 bucks :). I hope this will give me the extra motivation I need to get busy on the weight loss.
We have had quite a few stresses lately and honestly, I can say that is the most likely cause of my weight gain. I know I eat more crappy foods and more often when I am feeling overwhelmed and stressed. We are moving this weekend and next, and then we have made a decision to do something that is both going to hurt and benefit us financially, and hopefully after all of this my stress will be alleviated tremendously.I will try to post more often, it's just so hard to find time in this wild ride we call life!
