A Little Lost... Cassy's Story

A party :party: Onderland! Dammit where are you!?!? Perhaps tomorrow :) Han gin there, Cassy--and remember, alcohol is 7 calories per gram--more than protein, more than carbs!

Lecture lecture lecture! :toetap05:

SORRY! :hug2:

I can't wait til you get to Onderland....I'll be anticipating it! :hurray: :waving:
 
LOL well i'll have you know I haven't had drink in some time... simply because I havent replaced the bottle of vodka i finished awhile ago... And , as much as I like to drink the calories are quite the deterrant... I refuse to knowingly go over 2000 so If any shots are planned for that night i'll have to adjust my intake for that day... Calories are like money to me and everything has to be asessed for worthiness... and I tend to be an incredibly cheap person lol It has to be REALLY worth it!
 
I'm pretty stoked right now and have no one to tell so I'm going to share it with you fine people... for some reason i felt like trying on this leather jacket my mom gave to me just after i had my daughter that never fit lol i always felt like i was going to rip the back in half like the hulk... but guess what... it fit... and it buttoned up lol

so then i moved to the winter jacket i was wearing in the first half of my pregnancy that only a month or 2 ago was very tight and guess what... it wasnt tight...

so then i moved upstairs and openned a box of clothes that were always so awkward on me because the were just a little too small... they were comfortable...

then I REALLY pushed the limit... i went to the basement and got my box of "small clothes" that i packed up after my pregnancy outgrew them. the first thing to come out was a short skirt it said size 11... it's got strech to it so i gave it a go... It fits! it cuts in a little so iv got a bit of a muffin top so to speak but i will be rocking this little ditty by this summer...

I also have a matching jean jacket that honestly NEVER fit that well... boobs were to big and it was tight in the waist so no i didnt get that one done up, BUT i didnt bust out the arms or the back wich is sweet...

next came a couple of wrap arounds for the beach that the last time i tried on barely touched together... now i have plenty of extra fabric to wrap around...

then i pulled out some jeans sizes 10,11, 12, and apparently a 13... but i dont see it... they have no give and theyre low rise pants so i decided ill let those wait a little while before i even attempt them lol...

there were also a bunch of shirts which because of boob size came up a little short so we'll have to see if that gets better lol most of them are kind of too immature for me now anyways so thats okay.

I had some zip up sweaters that fit and zipped up just fine not too tight on the arms but they did look a little awkward...

All in all i'm amazed that anything fit at all. i really didn't feel my body shape had changed that much but obviously it has... a whole new dose of motivation! I love it!:hurray:
 
Wow Cassy that must've been such a good feeling to get those tight clothes on and them not even be tight any more. We can all relate to how FABULOUS you must be feeling right now. And well deserved. Keep this up and our team may even win!
 
THANKS! It was an awesome feeling. some of those things i couldnt get even my arms or legs in... its just amazing to me to finally see whats happenning aside from a number on a scale! I've never lost weight in my life but i'm definately never looking back... now that I know how to do it (thanks to WLF) theres no excuse not to. I know this team will win! we have an awesome team of dedicated people and i'm proud to be part of it!
 
Wow it 's been quite a few days since I've posted in my own journal... I must be busy or something :svengo:...
Um so basically its been an up and down week... starting last friday i had been barely staying within my 2000 calories. Monday I ended up going over by about 250. for some reason i've been experiencing snack attacks and couldnt stop thinking about food... tuesday was a brighter day. Somehow I managed to only consume 1586 Calories and last night 1789. I've officially changed my intake to 1800 calories because on weeks when I stick close to my 2000 caloies I dont seem to lose anything.:banghead:

I've been a little bored with my workout routine lately so it's everything I can do to just force myself to to do it every day... I'm working on spicing it up a little. Still waiting on that treadmill...

A little irritated with my hubby since though he know i want one and will be getting one, he's got an attitude about it... he asks "so whats next? I got you the wii fit and now thats not good enough, i'm going to get you a treadmill how long till you want something else?"... WTF? what kind of question is that? did he expect that i would be happy doing nothing but Wii fit forever? And when i seem pissed about the question he says he didnt mean anything by it he just wants to know whats next... IMO thats just a BS question... How am I to know whats next? thats the thing, I'm always going to be improving and expanding what I want to do... Is he expecting me to say I'm never going to want to do anything else?

LOL anyways thats been my Drama. Still waiting on Onederland but now that i've lowered my max calories, i'm sure ill get there this week...
 
he asks "so whats next? I got you the wii fit and now thats not good enough, i'm going to get you a treadmill how long till you want something else?"

Answer: About three or four weeks. So when do I get it?

(There is always something new. He should get used to it.)
 
lol no kidding right?
He's happy for me and all... I think he's just hoping it wont affect him at all (money ,living space, time) The thing I don't think he was counting on is that this is life changing and if were going to share a life it's bound to change his too... At least I'm the one doing most of the work lol...
lol I should just start playing into his "honest question" and make a list of stuff i really dont need and just hand it to him and say next time you want to ask me whats next pick something off the list...

In other news I weighed in at 199.4 today... I'm not excited yet since a bottle of water would send me over 200 but at least i'm making some progress with my revised calorie plan... it's only been 2 days...
 
Whoo hoo!! ONDERLAND, YIAH!!!!!!!!!!

:party: :party: :party: :party: :party:

Also, that was a GREAT post on fitting into old clothes--added motivation, yes? :D Keep it up!!!!!
 
HA HA HA Thanks guys you put a huge smile on my face, though I'm sure eating dinner sent me on a detour out of onederland i'm sure by tomorrow afternoon i'll be back... and hopefully a little more in then by a few ounces..
 
Woo Hoo! I'm getting my treadmill tomorrow afternoon! :party:
Maybe i'll actually be able to lose more then a pound a week when I'm ACTUALLY getting my heart pumping... Now I just need to figure out what I'm going to do with it... I guess ill just try some on and off jogging just to see what I can do... I havent actually ran long distance sincle like grade 9 gym class... And though I went out running on the cold drunken new years eve night... it was so cold my throat and lungs hurt to breath so i didnt get very far lol...
 
The treadmill is in my freakin driveway sitting in my van... just reading over this manual trying to be patient waiting for Andre to bring it in... Sooo Totally excited.... I got it's spot all ready... it's like a new baby! you best believe i can't wait to use it tonight!
 
I've pulled off and hour and a half on the new treadmill... i dont think that kind of time will be a daily thing but i was just so excited about it!
