O.k. Yesterday was a good day. I ate well and exercized. I actually made it through my third phase video of slim in 6. It kicked my butt though! I could not believe how much harder than phase 2 it is. At the end of phase 2, I wasn't even breaking a sweat anymore, but with the new one, I almost fell over a couple of times. Surprisingly, I'm not sore today, and low and behold I lost a whole pound over night! Yes, I am one of those obsesive scale people. I do weigh myself daily, it keeps me focused. I have been pushing my workouts back further and further though. I am now waiting until 6 pm or so before I do it. I need to start moving back up earlier. I feel better throughout the day when I know it's done. I have a christmas party next weekend at my sister in laws, so I would love to lose a few more pounds before then. Her friends usually snub me, and the last time I saw all of them, I had just had the baby and was one of the biggest women there. This time I won't be. That will feel great! Most of her friends have dated my husband at some point, so they are constantly flirting with him, and it wasn't so fun to be the big fat wife last time. anyway, I got in a brisk walk with the baby this morning, I needed some things from the store, so I decided to walk it, kinda a warm up for the day ahead. Now just need to get the BIG workout out of the way... I hate exercizing...........
 
Welcome to your Diary part 2 - I hate catty people! I've been shunned myself because of my weight.... all my adult life actually! It's never fun... go and show them whos boss!!! We're all backing you! You're doing AWESOME
 
I have noticed that more people listen to me now that I've lost weight. It's weird, I didn't notice that I was being ignored before I started this diet but now even the hot guys at Wendy's yesterday gave me a look :). So hopefully you can rub it in all those biatches faces when you go to that party. (not that I'm a vengeful person or anything--ok I am. ;))
 
My diet is going great! I have been keeping my calories down and eating lots of veggies. I got my workout in at about 6:00 last night. I'm pretty sore today, but the more I've been moving around the more my muscles seem to be loosing up. I have a tone of housework to do today, so hopefully I'll get energized and start to loosen up. My husband pointed out how my legs are super solid last night, so I know this is working and I feel the motivation. Maybe I'll wear a short skirt to the Christmas Party. I'm still having a hard time getting my waistline to shrink though, which is really frustrating. I can feel the muscles underneath the fat, I just can't see them yet, that seems to be the only place that I'm not seeing results, and thats the place I need it most! Oh well. Guess I need to step up that fat burning cardio!
 
Great Job!!! Welcome! I'm new here too. Seems like you are doing FABULOUS :D

I know about being shunned too! That happened to me a lot back when I was a size 10!!!!!!!! I didn't know how to deal and let it get to me and actually started to believe I was fat...now look at the scales! I am getting my life back and learning that I CAN do it, and regardless of my size it really doesn't matter what other people think!

I think you are doing great and that you will continue to do so! Not to mention going to knock them over at the party ;)

Good luck and hang in there! You're doing terrific!
 
Hey thanks so much for the support! I had a horrible day yesterday. I'm pretty bummed out about it. I was just to tired to stick to anything. I made my food plan in the morning as usual, but I got as far as breakfast and quit. I had a broccoli and egg white omlet for breakfast, and after that all I ate was reduced fat crackers and a bowl of beans. I don't think I went over 1300 calories, but all those carbs!! I'm not anti carb or anything, but I try to bal with protein, I also didnt get in a very good workout yesterday. I did it, just not as hard as I like. Now I feel like I let myself down today. It's a horrible feeling. I was just to tired yesterday to prepare my meals. oh well whats done is done I suppose. I just have to try to do better today, well not try DO!
 
Awwwww...I'm sorry you had a bad day yesterday!!! *big hugs*

With the two things you listed you had a protein at each! :D I LOOOOVE black beans as one of my proteins(had some last night actually!).

Hang in there....you're doing great :D:D:D
 
First of all thanks for the support! it's just what I needed today.

Five things about myself....hmmmmmmmmmm

1. I love heavy metal music. The louder and angrier the better. I have been to ozzfest every year and seen marilyn manson, nine inch nails, tool and lots of others in concert.

2. My favorite tv shows are all crime dramas, law and order, csi, without a trace, I also like Grey's anatomy and House.

3. I have not always struggled with my weight, in high school I was a cheerleader and on the swimteam and competed in junior olympic level events. At one time I was hoping to make the olympic team.

4. I love Wine!! That has been the hardest thing for me to give up in my diet, I still have some every other Saturday.

5. I am very family oriented my husband and kids are my life! I put all my energy into being a wife and mom and I'm proud of it, but before I settled down I was quite the party girl!

There's five, that was kinda hard. I'm just not that interesting a person... lol
 
Thanks!

I'd love to be a buddy and motivator!!!! Awesome!!!! How old are you?? I like Avril Lavigne!!! Do you like her? I have a brother who likes Tool. I've never actually sat down and listened to them. I think I'm a rather boring person as well. I live in the mountains in Colorado and don't have very many friends. But we're probably moving to a city, so I might be able to get involved in dancing classes or something. I love to dance!!! It's a BIG hobby, I also like listening to almost any kind of music, except country, I'm not all that fond of country, the only country I really listen to is Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, and that's about it! lol! Okay, I think I'm done talking and talking. Oh yes, did I mention I'm a chatterbox??? I'm kind of shy at first, but I open up a lot! Okay, see? There I go again, I'm shutting up no! lol!

I'm 27, and yes I actually do like avril lavigne.. I haven't heard anything new by her lately, I don't really listen to the radio, the music I like doesn't get radio time. I do not like country at all and wouldn't know any of the names of country artists. Have a great day today, you can do it.:)
