I thought that we should start a new thread as the other one was getting a little long.

Happy Diwali to you!!!
Hey... it's a celebration... don't sweat it... so you ate some yummy goodies, so what? As long as you enjoyed yourself on this holiday, that's all that matters!
Now put that behind you and start focusing on YOU again!
Me... well... TOM is about to leave... it just lingers around too long! lol
It's done some weird 'damage' to me this month. I've experienced symptoms I've never had before! I was getting some dizzy spells and all I could think of was to quickly eat something before I fell over! It was quite strange!
So.. I ended up eating a lot of things I wouldn't normally eat. I ususally end up staying the same weight or just gaining slightly. However, I think I've gained a lot of weight this time. Tomorrow will be D-day!
I am on iron pills but I ran out of them and I didn't have time to go and pick more up as I was busy with my DS's birthday and his party and Halloween and his piles of homework! Yes... just his. The girls are good at managing their times now... I had to go through all this with them... and now I have to help DS to manage his time. It's a little harder with boys.... all he wants to do is play on the ipad! Agh!
Anyways... I think that my body was lacking in the iron and it caused me to become dizzy. I don't know. I'm off to the store to get some pills now.
Today is DH birthday so we started celebrating yesterday with going out to eat. And I had lots of goodies! After this week, I will focus on my eating again. Need to lose some weight before the Thanksgiving holiday!
Happy Diwali to you Raymh! Enjoy yourself!
I hear you! Those little packages are too good to resist. I've been doing the same thing... I figure that one little chocolate bar isn't going to hurt (and it probably won't ) but, I've been having a few little chocolate bars and, at the end of the day, they add up to a large full-sized bar!
It's time for me to stop as well.
So.. TOM is over and the official weight gain is only 0.5 lbs! Not bad considering that I was eating so much to combat the dizzy spells I was having!
Now it's time to say goodbye to the candy and focus on my weightloss again! I'm glad that I didn't do a lot of damage and that's what's motivating me to start again today!
Simba, you'd better start to focus as well... I noticed that the scale moved in the upwards direction! Not by much, but still upwards.... You need to get the scale to go in the opposite direction. lol
Also, Simba, I was in the same boat as you were. My DS celebrated his birthday and we also went out for super and had cake etc.....
Thankfully, I foresee nothing in the near future that will harm my efforts. Hopefully I can make a dent in the weight loss.
I ended up weighing the same as yesterday! Not bad, considering.
Current weight: 148.0 lbs
@Raymh: How are things after your Diwali celebrations? I hope all is going well and that you are right back onto your feast and fast days.
@Simba: Have you decided to jump back on the band wagon yet and shed those unwanted pounds? Before the scale starts a slow upward climb?... I think you should.
Agh.
I'm not sure why but, I think it's because I'm tired of running around and getting last minute items for the school projects that just seem to keep piling up on my kids (two of them). DS just handed one in today. He was up early so that he could put the final things together... he was up late last night... late for a ten year old!
DD#2 has TWO projects due next Friday! I've been on her case to start them NOW so she's not up late every night next week! Hopefully she can get one of them done by the weekend!
Agh... I don't remember there being so many things when I went to school!
Anyways.... due to the projects and me running around finding needed items for that 'special' touch, I have been neglecting myself and my eating habits.
Unfortunately, I'm just grabbing anything and wolfing it down. Sigh.
The weight is not budging but I guess that's a good thing... at least it's not going upwards!
I hope to be back on track this weekend...
I could barely open my eyes this morning and I just glanced at the scale. My kitty way anxious for his breakfast and I needed a cup of tea badly. lol
I'm just so tired. All the time. Even after 9 hours of sleep! I never do that. Actually, i wanted to sleep more but I felt guilty that I wasn't up yet.
There are only two of us in the house right now. Everyone else is gone away for sleepovers! DD#2 likes to sleep and who knows when she'll wake up!
It's going to take me a little while just to spring into action.
On 13th it is DEV UTHAN GYARAS, from this day starts season of weddings as hindu marriages are done at 'shubh muhurta' ( auspicious time) told by pandit ( sort of mixture of priest and astrologer), do for next 4 months there will be lots of weddings, one of them is my younger brother's.
I wanted to know friends that are both of you Christians? I just want to know your religions so that i be able to wish you at your festivals.
From timorrow
I am 88.8 again, gained 2.2 kgs back in festivities which i had lost by 2 days fasting.
I'm so busy for the last few days. I just wanted to stop and say quick 'hi' and I have not stopped posting!
I'm glad you enjoyed your holidays, Raymh.... I'm also glad that you are staring to lose again. Good for you.
I don't even know what my weight was this morning. I was too busy the minute I jumped out of bed! lol
I'll check tomorrow (obviously) and will post. Long post.
Later.
My health is not what is usually is. I need to take some time and sort out what's going on... I have to monitor it closely.
Perhaps I should make an appointment for a physical... it's just been over one year since my last.
Hopefully it's just a little setback and all will be well in no time at all!
Today I woke up and TOM was here again. I just got over it one week ago! How could it be here already?
I don't know what's going on! I have to keep an eye on it and monitor it.
I had one of the worst TOMs I ever had last time and I experienced some symptoms that I never did before. Even when TOM was over I kept feeling strange for a few days. I finally had starting feeling better for the last three days and this morning I get a visit from TOM! lol
My body seems to like this number and doesn't want to give it up. lol
I'm going to have to persuade it to let go a little at a time.
I want to be back to 140.0 lbs
I literally woke up, changed, made the kids lunches and ran out the door with DD1 to drop her to school. I had to go to a store in the area of her school for DD2... luckily it was open early so I could get the final touches on her project done and then dropped it off at her school before 9am. It is due today!
DH made sure she was dressed and out the door to catch her bus and then drove DS to his bus stop!
Busy morning but everything I had to do is done. Ah.... the peace.
Today is apparently going to be a little mild so I plan on cutting down my ornamental grasses and ditching the last of the fall flowers. Then I'll give the garage a clean and have it winter ready.
How are you all doing????
I'm not even trying... I've fallen off of the proverbial wagon for quite some time now.
Not bad that I'm 'maintaining' this weight but.... this isn't the weight I'm trying to maintain! lol
I've got to get back on that wagon! I'm starting to feel better and stronger by the day. Hopefully that will be soon and I can shock my body back into losing weight.
Ahh... I was doing so well until I had to go to the states for my Thanksgiving!
oh well... that was the past and I only need to look at the present and see what I can do now to shape my future!
How are you guys doing?
