Well it has definitely been a fun few days for me with all of the Christmas Parties. First there was my Christmas party on Thursday night at Jubilation Dinner Theatre. We had a fun time watching CSI with "Gill Gruesome. The only downfall is that we weren't able to visit too much with other people the way the seating was, but that's okay. In the end I think everyone had a great time.
Friday came along and it was my first day all alone at home. I had good intentions of going to the gym. The kids were at Grandma and Grandpa's for a few nights so I had the whole day to myself. I just kind of ended lazing around and nibling on food through the entire day....Nice Job, Susan!! In hindsight I really wish I would have gone to the gym because I have gained too much weight in the last few days and feel...well...disgusting at the moment. I am happy to say that I didn't give into any temptations to binge/purge on Friday, but believe me I felt like it. It really took everything in my power not to, but after looking at the numbers on the scales yesterday and today part of me wishes I would have had a binge/purge...sorry I know that this may be a lot of info---I know that sounds awful, but hey...I didn't and that's all that matters....I realize that there are going to be good days and bad days. Now I just have to get back on track with healthy eating. December is sooooo hard with all the get togethers but I just need to plan everything out and get back on the bus and take it one day at a time, one hour at a time, one minute at a time.
On Friday I was watching the news and there was a segment on weight loss and motivational music the website is www.skinnysongs.com. It wasn't the music I was thinking of (fast cardio music) but rather music with lyrics that would motivate one to lose weight...here is a sample of one of the songs...
From the moment that I saw you, hangin’ out at the mall
I had to own you, your rhinestones and all
you didn’t come cheap, but somehow I knew
that whatever the cost, it was worth having you
For years we were together, every Saturday night,
we’d go out dancin’, you’d hold me in tight,
but you were unforgiving and you wouldn’t let me grow
Now I can’t put you on -- but I can’t let you go
skinny jeans, skinny jeans, you’re still hanging ‘round
In the back of my closet and that’s bringin’ me down
this morning, I woke up, and made me a vow
skinny jeans, gonna get back, into you somehow
some things got between us, and now you’re too tight
but I know it’s all my fault, and I’m gonna make it right
no it won’t be easy, but it’s not too late
just put my mind to it, and I’m gonna look, gonna gonna look great
skinny jeans, skinny jeans, you’re stilll hanging ‘round
In the back of my closet and that’s bringin’ me down
this morning, I woke up, and made me a vow
skinny jeans, gonna get back, into you somehow
For months now, I’ve worked hard, until, yesterday
I went to the closet, and pushed those ‘fat clothes’ away
I grabbed you -- and I can’t believe how it felt,
to pull the zipper up, and buckle my belt!
Skinny jeans, skinny jeans, glad I kept you around
‘cause tonight, my darlin’s, we’re goin out on the town
I worked my butt off, now you fit me just right
so I’m wearin’ my skinny jeans to the party tonight
Now I am tired and really need to catch up on sleep and get back on track with things...till later....

Love the lyrics and the song is pretty upbeat. It would motivate me, as would the others in different genres.
I am going to have to go and listen to the skinnysongs, I need all the motivation I can get :-) I did drive to the new WW by my house, but the doors were locked..I didn't realize I had to go at a 'meeting' time ;-) I will sign up online first, pick the meeting that works best and then go and join up. I would really love to get back into all my 'skinny' clothes!
So proud of you for not doing the b/p thing, way to go!
That's funny I just happened to see part of that show too. I didn't watch it intentionally, the tv was just on. Interesting buisiness idea, it might work for some people, it obviously worked for her. Doubt it would do much for me. Upbeat music motivates me, but not so much the lyrics.
