HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOUR GOALS!

Accountability Mission: No Mercy and No Excuses 

Good afternoon BAF.  Sorry so late but OH would not load this morning and its running really slow today. 

Merry Christmas to all and God Bless us everyone!  Lets see, First Day of Christmas: partridge in a pear tree; today, the second day of Christmas, two turtle doves.  I hope Christmas Day was enjoyable for all. 

Tell the whole truth and be accountable.  Did you remember the Spirit of the season this year?  I hope you've truly enjoyed your day regardless of the stage your journey and the foods you could or could not consume.  Is moderation within your comfort zone this weekend?  Or, is control still challenging? 

Food is just a piece of the celebration not the end all be all.   That's hard to internalize when it seems that even the thinnest of the thin in our lives looks forward to the holiday feast. 

This weekend is a big one for head hunger.  With so much food arund between now and celebrating the New Year, its time for a little introspective on how this is playing out in our lives.

I subscribed to the old phrase "Eat, drink, and be merry."  all day yesterday.  I was very aware of how much I consumed and it was a lot.  Likely over my calorie  limit but I did no counting.  That includes a few glasses of wine.  

Today I'm bloated from carbs and alchohol and retaining water (52%!!!).  I did, however, manage to loose three of last weeks six pound weight gain.  Three pounds to go untill I'm back to normal.  Then please dear God let me loose this last 15 lbs.  

Its back to business today.  I've got a shake in and half my vits and almost a third of my liquids down.  I'd like to get the protein up to 125g today.   I'm tracking protein only this weekend.

I've already hit the gym for some intense cardio, 1100 cal burn this morning.  Strength this afternoon and an hour of high impact aerobics tonight. 

I'm going to avoid any damages from this week and continue to work on eliminating the random weight gain of last week.

I have already....said that I am not going to beat myself up about my carbs this week.  My goal is not to gain. If I do that I will be sucessful.  I will get myself on track 100% starting Jan 1. Just too much stuff blindsighting me and I want to at least taste and be a part of the festivities.  At least I am not eating to drown feelings...theres a big difference.

You can get back on track MSW.  You have been doing well and the last 15 will come off eventually. 

I didn't do too bad yesterday; I actually did better than expected. I am soooooooo tired right now and still sitting in the bed watching TV. I had Christmas at my house this year and we had a blast!

I will not work out this weekend but plan to start fresh on Monday. I will however start cleaning out the basement and my hubby and I will finally put all of my workout equipment in one location!!!

A home gym sounds great.  I plan to move in 2010 and hope to have a basement again.  I'd love a home gym. 

Maaaannnnn - shhhhiiiitttt.  I ****** UP and OVER and UNDER yesterday - and not in the bedroom.......

White choc macadamia nut cookies are the devil
Italian creme cake is Judas
Who told Jack Daniels to make chocolates?
WHY did my first attempt at broccoli cheese and rice casserole have to taste THAT good?
Can I get redemption points for drinking sugar free tea and diet ginger ale with my bourbon?
And know I KNOW the secret behind all those fat ass Hawaiian folk --- the SWEET ROLLS!!!!!

Ummmm - so today was detox.

B - protein shake
Mid morning - spam w/ whitewheat toast
L - chips and salsa
D - one chili dog (I made two like a fat ass, will be throwing one away)

i did have ONE LAST piece of the italian creme - and chucked the rest.  

I'm eyeballing the key lime pie slices like a nicca in the dark corner of the club with a trenchcoat on in the middle of the summer and his hand up under the right fold......DON'T YOU MOVE, MUDDA*****A!!!!!!!

I'll be in the gym tomorrow for cardio, then back to 5am erryday this week......

When the hey did JackD start making chocolate and why didn't anyone tell me???    You can't fkcu it up on Christmas, its a free pass day. 

I'm too greedy to detox yet but I'm weighing my portions and limiting the carbs, deserts included to two ounces.   Go on and have a couple ounces of pie.  You know there won't be any more of that for a very long time after this week.
