I'll tell you what... pushing on from 30 min of cardio to an hour at first was AWFULLY hard for me..... but now its easier.....


and hey... ive now hit two plateaus... only like 5 lbs from each other... it will break soon. as wierd as this sounds.... around my period i put on about 4 lbs. Then i seem to lose about 2-3 on top of those 4 directly after... keep that in mind!!!! :)


maybe you will too??? maybe im just a weirdo hehe

Yeah, well I actually have been, ahem, on a little period thing too. Maybe that's why. I'm going to switch to a pill to regulate it a little bit to see if that helps, I'll let you know! I hope that's what it is!!

Hey girly! Thanks for stopping by! I know, tell me about it... I think for sure I'm going to switch BC's... just to see what happens...

Oh yeah, 500 cals is not good but it is seriously the new craze everywhere. It's like a hormone that only is carried when you are pregnant but somehow targets only your fat stores and burns that for your energy for the day. I have like a 25 page packet that explains it all.

A weekend in Cali sounds amazing! I hope you had fun but it looks like you did well with the 1.9 pound weight loss! Yeah, I need to get out of my funk... *slaps self*

Yes it was sooo much fun.. I was completly stressed though about what I was going to eat. Im hispanic girl so what do you know whn I first got to my sisters .. her Suegra had made Menudo! I was like heck no! I left and got a granola bar. hah.. My sister was eating at Jack in the box and I was like ummm you know theres like 1500 cal in that!! They just laugh at me. So I did pretty good on Friday foodwise..but helllllllllllo we celebrated my sister in laws bday and had a few too many cocktails. YIKES!! Saturday was a baby shower and I was not feelin too hot so I drank loads of water and just picked at food..

Im happy that I did loose but geeze can I get a 4 pound loss PLEASE??? I really want to fit back in my Seven for Mankindsssss!!! I have some old jeans that im just able to get on now but I have to be careful what shirt I wear. There will be NO muffin top aloud! So, for now I will leave them in the closet.

Oh my gosh, for sure let me know! That would be awesome if I could get them for les... I think they are so cute and I love the inseam, how it curves at the bottoms on some styles.

Me too! We will get there! I'm not spending money either on expensive jeans, just cute tops and work clothes, that I need.
 
Oh boy do I know how much it sucks when the scale stalls. I see inches coming off.. I see I look a little better in a picture but when that darn scale still says the same thing it just SUCKS!! lol. I've had two stall outs already nearly back to back. They each lasted 3 weeks and were only 2 pounds apart from each other. It took a lot not to break things and call the whole eating better and working out thing off.

Muffin top.. UGH. I tried to put on a pair of capris this weekend cause it was so hot out. Well they have stretch so I could get them on but it looked like I was a cupcake... with frosting.. It was like the extreme sports version of muffin top.

Nice to hear the hubby is home early, sucks that he has to go again next week. Gotta make the most of this week then :p
 
I have been stuck in the low 170's since January!!! I

I sooo feel that! I hit my big 50 lb mark and have been on a 3 lb up down for like 6 weeks. I am really thinking about it and I have decided I have lost my intensity.I am refocusing with some short term goals and turning up my exercise intensity annnnd not losing focus on my eating because that had started to sputter ( more eating out, allowing a few splurges...) That will be fine for when Im done losing and just want to maintain but not yet....That my story and Im stickin with it.
 
Hello BansheeBabe, How are ya?

Plateaus...I never knew the meaning of it, and I'd been on one for the last 3-4 weeks, wondering what the heck is everyone talking about on here. haha Gotcha

I got a peek at your pics, WoW you've been working hard! FANT-A-BULOUS!!

See ya lata in the Challenge!! :seeya:
 
Until we meet again..

Ok, so I haven't journaled for awhile and to tell you the truth, I am just a big ball of mess. I have been really stressed out with the relative being out of prison, work, the hubby, etc., etc. I have also been having panic attacks but they are drawn out through the day. I knew that I need to do something so I went and saw a counselor and she said I'm suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

So, I'm going to try and fix a lot of these problems and I don't think I'm going to be on this site that often. I'm still going to try and focus on weight loss but I definately need to take care of my HEALTH first.

Thanks to everyone for your support and I'll be checking in on the great people I have met here, every so often. As soon as I can get this PSTD in order, I'll be back and be able to give support like I should be able to. Right now, I need to take care of me....
 
Good for you......Take care of yourself first...ALWAYS. Come visit when you can!! I'll keep you in my thoughts.
 
Be strong girly.. you can get through this. Your the most important person to think about, it's good your taking the time to do so. I wish you a speedy journey and hope to see you back on here soon. :hug2:

I won't say what I'd like to say about the abuse subject because most of my thoughts involve giving people like him 100 times the pain he gave to others. You didn't deserve any of that, no one does, and I am very sorry to hear that happened to you. I hope your family is protective and understanding and tells him to stay out of your life. Take care of yourself and let others help you when you can't. And please let us know how you are doing every now and then.
 
I'm still trucking at 162.5!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for your support from the last couple of months, as I've been trying to get everything under control.

I'm pleased to report that I'm now down tto 162.5 and coming up on the 150's! :hurray:It's amazing that I still have been able to lose the weight and try and refocus on the anxiety and stress. I have been seeing a therapist for a month and taking medication and things couldn't be better!

Well, I just wanted to update everyone and I'll try and stop by everyone else's progress! :waving:
