Checking in....

The last few days have been pretty good. I have been eating a lot of grilled chicken salads and things of that sort. Snacking hasn't been too bad. I did eat a coupleof bowls of cereal before softball lessons. One thing I am doing is when I eat with Dane I'll munch on a few of his leftovers, which I guess it could be worse but I should probably cut that out! :)
All in all it has been pretty good. I have been feeling more energetic at workouts lately and I know a lot has to do with my eating.
Well until the next battle is won....SEE YA!!

Small Battle

Just won a battle. Dane accidently bought me a chicken salad sandwich instead of a chicken salad and I did not eat the bread! I ate the chicken salad part but threw away the bread. Small battle! Yay!

Yo.....

Well hello to all of our avid readers! :)
The past fews days have been OK, not great, not terrible. My biggest problem right now is not carbs but sugar. I had ice cream one night, some peanut butter, couple of dark chocolate pieces. Nothing in large amounts but just here and there. I am not preparing my meals like I should be. It is OK because it's getting better. I feel better in my Crossfit workouts. Grace has me eating some hard boiled egss before workouts which I think it definitely helping. All in all not too bad but I know I can still improve. Dane is coming with me to Crossfit tomorrow so hopefully he will jump on the health and fitness bandwagon! HAHA! it is work a shot!

See ya next time!

Blah.

Well, it's March and it's been about 2 months since I last posted on this blog. I've been in hiding...ashamed of my eating and not wanting to disclose anything to my reading public!

It's been pretty bad over the last few months. I tend to get more frustrated when I think "if I would have just kept eating the way I did in December then I would be beyond my weight loss goal and performing at a higher level". Most of the time, I just think "oh well, guess I'll have another batch of fries!" Which is not a great place to be mentally! Couple that thought process with a lot of external stress and there's a recipe for disaster.

But fear not! I am back, and although the stress is not gone, I've decided that I'm tired of eating crap and that it probably adds to my feelings of exhaustion, depression (I use that term loosely...more of the feeling of being down on myself) and general malaise. I think Ryan and I went about 2 weeks without cooking a meal at home. We didn't eat fast food every night, but eating out has definitely taken its toll.

You all who read this blog (it might only be Jamie right now) are my accountability! I'm REALLY ready to feel better, look better and perform better at Crossfit.

Feels good to be back......

Yess! I am so excited we are typing on this again. Great accountability! Thank you to all of our 4 readers out there. Once again I hope you're entertained with the inner battles with the Hinshaw girls (chocolate, cake, brownies, bread....ahhh).

FAT GUY IN A LITTLE COAT......

Since the last post(s) I have not been as disciplined as I was when typing on the blog. If I can lose weight during December with the free flowing of cookies and candy then I know I can do it any month of the year! I've gotten some great pointers from Beth and from Grace and feel I'm better prepared for the changes! Am I perfect, well...YES! J/K, most definitely NOT :) but at least with the website I know I have to make it public knowledge that I ate like doo doo the day before! At least it makes me think twice!

Until next time.....stay classy San Diego!

We're Baaackkk!!!!

Stay tuned for more!
