32 More days until Spring!
Well, it is snowing, AGAIN! It is like that movie "Groundhog Day" where he keeps living the same day over and over. It is very depressing. We are only expecting about an inch but it is supposed to snow like this most of today. I need sunshine and warmth! I need the 6 ft piles of snow to go away! Driving is hell (no turn lanes, sometimes lanes are not plowed at all.) Black ice at night. I am very depressed and feel so unmotivated right now. This is weeks of this. I still have no computer. I am begging Paul to get me a computer hooked up. I still have no Fitday to keep track which then I eat a lot more and crappy foods since I am not tracking! I have not been able to get to the Y often enough since roads are bad and I cannot safely walk the dog since there is no sidewalks and there is ice everywhere. I did 30 minutes last night of Wii Fit Plus, step aerobics. I had bought the step accessory that goes under the balance board from Target, $24.99. What a difference it made! I did work up a sweat. So I have to focus on ways to get exercise in spite of the weather. I haven't even come close to 10k steps. Mostly 4k! I have to turn this around! The good news, I am at 146.5 lbs, so in spite of the 3+ weeks of unhealthy living, I have only gained a couple of lbs. I went to Chico's yesterday to use my coupon and bought myself a new blouse and pair of jeans. Purple jeans! So cool! Yesterday, I was somewhat back on track with eating. Praying that I can get my Fitday information off my old computer, as well as my pedometer information. Oh, and my battery appears to be going in my pedometer as it is acting funny and did not reset to "0" this morning! Praying I did not lose all of my data. Watched the season premiere of "Ruby." She talked about food addiction. I am also watching Dr Oz this AM and there are people there who all lost over 100 lbs. Work is brutal but I am still hopeful that things will slow down after all this snow stuff is over.

My co-worker (who came in at 9:30) said the roads were already bad again.
Newark had just dug out and now we\'re all iced over yet again!
I\'ve been feeling depressed too...bad weather, bad news, stuck inside...today at least I am at work.
I wish I had that Wii Fit Plus and all that...I miss my Wii Fit!
Good luck with your computer woes...and be safe out there in the snow!
Much Love!
Argh! Computer problems are the pits! I would be lost without my fitday and all that info I put in it! Not good!
32 days til Spring! I am on the curb and waiting! This has been a loooonnnng winter!
Good for you to keep focused on your exercise! You are giving me some motivaton to get up and move it!
Sounds so frustrating. I hope your pedometer holds all the info it has stored.
great job with the exercise.. keep that up and you\'ll be down a size and the new purple jeans will be big on you.
I saw Ruby last night to and Dr Oz today.. If they can do it you can too...
maybe write down what you eat... think i\'ll enter this into fitday when the computer is up and running so i better keep track... then you\'ll see how well you do on your own.. maybe you can keep on track without the fitday for another week.. good luck..
Hope your computer is working (or you get a new one) real soon..
Paul was working on getting the new computer set up today. I am driving to Harrisburg tomorrow for another fire, so HOPEFULLY, while I am gone, he can work on retrieving my data! Fingers and toes crossed! The snow stopped, Thank God! I am praying I don\'t have to shovel any more until next January!
Did you have the fitday program that you purchase and download, or were you just using the basic online program? Cause if it\'s just the online program at fitday.com, then you should still have all your info under your normal sign on.
Sorry about the SNOW. That sounds crazy, and I\'m frozen Saskatchewan!!! I know how frustrating it is getting around when the streets are buried, and to have it happen again and again must be exhausting.
Spring HAS to come. We are not in a movie. It HAS to come. Right??!! Lol!! It will!! The earth will spin on it\'s axis and orbit the sun and our turn will come.
Love you. Hang in there!
Whoops - sorry - just saw the downloaded and purchased fitday answer on a previous journal of yours. OK, now I am down on my knees praying to the computer gods for you.
They owe me one!!!!
Gosh that is NUTS huh! I hope the snow goes away sooooon! It can be very depressing. Good job for making the most out of it and getting a workout in! Great job on your weight, that\'s always a big relief, no biggie right. I can\'t wait till spring, OMG I\'m hating this cold weather for sure. Stay strong/tough and spring will be here before you know it! Hope Paul fixes your computer FAST!!! Going thru withdrawl is tough, ha ha.... Hang in there, always here for you! TGIF!!!!
Ruby is a great show! This weather is crazy, ours is nothing like yours, but still trying to get thru til spring! Hang in there!
