What the ….
Donuts Always Win is a personal collection of weight loss antics, observations and currently, a daily photo blog of everything being shoved into the mouth of a food-loving girl who's fought calories, fat grams and exercise all her life...and lived to tell about it.

Can I be honest? I’m putting 5 & 6 together because these past two weeks I really haven’t been able to remember much of anything–least of all what I’ve done workout-and-diet wise.

I probably could if I’d have kept up the stickers-on-the-calendar approach, but most of the last 14 days is a blur and not for a good reason.

What I find most important to report is that I really didn’t stray too far from goals. In addition to personal issues, the last two weeks were literally the busiest of the year (for all of 2010 I’ll bet) in terms of things to do and places to go. Snow days caused the hubby’s basketball team to reschedule games, in a one-week span, on a Saturday, Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. Add to that a parent-teacher conference (to which I only had one parent show up…disappointing), training a new student teacher, a holiday I hate passionately and another smashingly busy week of games and more conferences, and it’s a wonder I’m even alive to give a report.

But I am. Forgive the brevity of my points here but I want to keep up appearances :)

I did have fries, once, the Friday after the second “bomb” dropped on me. I had about ten fries from my kid’s dinner and yes, I did it with the full knowledge of what I was doing. I am an emotional eater and it was easier to stuff those things down than resist. I didn’t enjoy them and probably won’t eat any more again.

No pop.

Dogger isn’t getting walked until May. We’ve got about 4 feet of snow outside from a wicked storm and our streets aren’t even plowed. That was a dumb goal. Good for dogger, dumb taking the season into account. I’ve promised her I’ll make it up to her in the spring. We walk practically every day from spring to winter so she’s not too angry.

Working out–when I can. If I have an open evening I work out. I don’t know what that’s amounted to over the past two weeks–maybe four workouts total. I am working out with the Wii, still, Wii Active in specific, so Bob Greene’s whiny voice makes me feel all kinds of guilt when I don’t give my all. Wish he’d never heard of squats and lunges, but what can you say?

I’m cheating myself on the yoga. Yes, no time, as indicated above, but no real gumption to do it. I really think meditation would be more beneficial for me given my current issues but I have done neither. Freaking slacker.

I’m looking forward to the end of this ten week challenge and the start of a new one (yes, a new one). My goals seem sorta out of touch with what I need to do and need readjusting. Just like my life. If only life came in easily digestable ten week chunks….
