Weigh Ins

I haven't been on here for a couple weeks again.  I need to get better at this.  My weigh ins for the past two Saturdays have been gains.  I am now at 306.2.  This is a bit discouraging for me.  I have been tracking my food with MyFitnessPal and have been exercising more.  Although, I may not be exercising enough.  Last week, I only made it to the gym twice - water aerobics.  But it's better than I had been doing, which was nothing.

I think I can say that overall, I'm pretty much back on track.  I have been faithfully tracking my food since the first of the month.  I have put exercise back in.  Now, I'm going to increase the exercise.  I also need to work on getting my water in.  Water is tough for me.  Plain water gives me heartburn.  I will drink flavored waters, as long as they are sweetened naturally.  I am trying to stay away from the artificial sweeteners.  I've noticed that sucralose (splenda) gives me an upset stomach.

Work is still work and that's really all I can say about that without sounding too whiney. 

I'm still planning on going back to school; although I'm still not entirely decided on what to study.  Although, I am kind of leaning toward the graphic design.  I had recently talked with a personal trainer about nutrition and wellness and he said he feels it would be tough to get into.  He did say I might have better luck if I try going for registered dietician.  I'm not sure if that's what I want or not.  I will admit to being completely UNDECIDED.  Gah!  Before school can even happen I need to finish the application process. I'm held up by the transcripts from my previous school.  I didn't know until recently that I still owed them some money.  So, they are holding my transcripts until I pay them.  And...money has been tight.   I've been contemplating taking it from my vacation club account though.  Hmmm.

Not much else has been going on.  Same ol same ol basically.  I would really like to plan a long weekend getaway.  But, that would require some money as well.

Well...back to work I guess. 

Peace.Love.Smiles.
