199 And Counting Down... Cassy's New Story

Hey Cassie! I think you typo'ed your weight in the post before this. I'm guessing it was supposed to be 176.4. Didn't figure you went up 20 lbs in a day...
 
i just realized the first one WAS rightI AM in the 70's... I cant believe i havent even grasped the concept that im in the 70's so much so that i automatically assume it should have been in the 90's wow..
 
I dont even think im doing amazingly well i could probably do better. but even at 1 pound a week it's weird that i feel like i sort of woke up weighing less... i cant even believe the number thinking about it... even now im saying in the back of my head... no you dont... I literally feel really confused right now

Your eating is totally great Cassie! I dont know why you say you could be doing more. You're a small girl (a shortie like me) and 1 lb a week is plenty. Its so fun to watch someone like you making this sort of progress! It IS crazy how you've come down so much in weight since the last challenge. Yeah I take hiatuses from WLF too, we all do around here but its great to come back and manage your weight better from time to time. CU on FB.
 
Thanks Claud! I dont think my eating is too bad most of the time... its my excersize i should doing better at... i kinda get to points where its like i lose weight without excersizing so I wont worry about it... but my body just looks and feels better when I do... I just find it a lot easier to Not eat something as apposed to having to actually get up and excersize lol it takes less effort...
 
Oh yeah I hear you Cass! Are you using weights at all? There is nothing better to make you tight toned and SEXY!! Ya get the firmest boobs and butt (and waist) with the right moves.
 
sor some reason I just remembered something i wanted to mention... the other day I told my H how I was doing on the scale and he said "good job your almost there... you only have like 5 pounds to go.".. I just stared at him.. he thought that i just wanted to get to 175... approximately where i was when we met.. when i didnt seem to agree he seemed a little nervous and how much i was planning to lose... i told him i was trying to get to about 150... in reality id like to be closer to my reccommended bmi at around 135 but id probably be happy with 150-140..
He really doesnt want me to lose more weight.. he doesnt want me to be "to tiny" or "like a stick"... he says he might not be as attracted to me if im too skinny... so now i poke fun at him and call him a chubby chaser as a way to make the subject not to tense... i think im going to start keeping my weight to myself... who knew it would be because i dont want someone to think im too thin?

This is too bad in some respects, and also the reason why some of us are using this forum as a means of support.

It seems sometimes that the people in our lives who are closest to us, can also be the ones who can be occasionally insensitive or jealous, sometimes that unconsciously sabotage our efforts etc.

I don't generally think it is a conscious thing (although in some cases...), but in the end, we all have to do what works for us. Those people in our lives who, for whatever reason, have been in some way discomforted in the short run by what we are doing, need to accept that we are doing this to better ourselves. If they truly care enough for us, then this should not be a problem, but, sometimes it takes a little getting used to.

BTW, I know I've got a reputation here sometimes (I wonder why? :Angel_anim:) But honestly? Cassie, you are truly beautiful. I can only imagine what kind of drop dead knockout you're going to be once you get where you want to be.

Take that as a compliment, pure and simple.
 
Thanks Karl :) I'll deffinately take that as a compliment...
I dont think he'll try to sabotage me in anyway and i dont think if he tried he'd very successful... I'm not sure why its such a big deal, he once told me he would love me if i was 500lbs... but apparently not so much if im 135.. or at least not attracted to me..
I dont know if thats true, he's been attracted to skinny girls before... hes pointed out girls he thinks are hot who are tiny... for crying out loud ANGELINA JOLIE! I think maybe its the typical case of change is scarey and being smaller attracts more attention... which is already true, and it doesnt help that all his guy friends make comments about how good im looking (he claims it doesnt bother him though)
Either way im doing this, with or without his support. If its a reason enough to break our relationship then maybe theres something much worse wrong with us.. I have to do this for meall my life ive been overwheight and dreamed of losing weight but never known how to and now that i do and am I'm not letting anything get in the way..
 
Well i havent kept up my posting for the week but trust me when i say my calories have been REALLY low... Probably too low... Im pretty sure the only excersize ive done this week is 30 mins to an hour on the treadmill... im getting 0 points in the challange but hey... there are worse things in life i guess
 
I was doing so good... i lost whole bunch of weight in one week. i saw 174 for a couple days... then all hell broke loose.. so many things are going wrong and my world feels like its falling apart... I've neever seen myself as an emoional eater but lately ive been eating like a pig, and just rotten stuff... take out and little snack cakes... i feel so disgusting, eating even though im not hungry on feeling grossly full... i told myself on monday i would get back on track and yet it didnt happen and today ive already eaten some leftover chicken wings and pizza from last night..
I havent been excersizing at all really... all i want to do is curl up and sleep forever.. its all i can do to get basic chores done fromday to day. this morning I tried to spend some time on my treadmill But quite literally i had to get off every 3 minutes to sort out the kids... Its like theres so much against me in all the smallest ways... i did manage to pull of about 20-25 minutes in total at 1.5 M/hr on 10% incline which is better then nothing i suppose... im going to make myself workout this afternoon as long as i can while the kids are napping/at school...
This morning my scale said 180 :(... my weight is always a bit heavier first thing in the morning, ive been having hard time in the bathroom lately so im sure im holding onto some excess waste and im probably holding onto some water given my lack of water intake and just all the salty crap ive been eating... but even after clearing all that out im sure its not going to bring me back to where i was... Its so disheartening that it takes me a whole month to lose 5 pounds and in one week i can gain it all back only to have to take a whole nother month to get rid of it again... i guess thats the price i have to pay...
 
not much to update... still working on bringing the pounds back down... still lookin at 178-177 :/... my mood is improving so im hoping thats what i need to perk up my eating and excersizing habits again... things are still pretty tense in the house and inside myself so All i can do is my best..
 
It shouldn't take longer than a few days to lose the 5 lbs once you get back on track. Usually easily placed weight comes off fast too. A secret for getting away from the appetite (I know how you feel!) is to just cut out sugar, bread, pasta and rice. Your appetite will be in control within a day.
