br!na's weightloss diary

Yay! Glad you are feeling better and ready to get back to it! The key I find is allowing yourself to have your off/sick days and being able to get back up, dust off, and get going again. That's the one thing I am happy about, while I have not made much progress I am still going and not giving up.
 
Thanks you guys!! I'm glad to be working out again. I actually missed it! Haha. I'm a little frustrated this morning. I seem to be stuck at 198.0. But hopefully after a few more days of getting back on track, I will see it start dropping again. I've just hit a wall, and I have to break through it. :)
 
Stupid walls, they always get in the way! But keep pushing, it will crumble in in time :) You're almost at 20 lbs lost!!...and even better: 1 more (19) and you will have lost 25% of the total loss you are looking for!
 
Icychic- I am very excited about that!! :) its frustrating,because I was already there. Then I just had to get sick. :p but I did 60 minutes at the gym today. I burned 301 calories! :) so hopefully that will help break through this wall! Here's hoping for a good weigh-in tomorrow!!! :)
 
The stats that Icychic pointed out are pretty awesome! You're doing great, keep at it. I've hit these walls too and I hate it when it happens, but somehow I always manage to break through. You will do the same! I'm glad you're back on track now. :)
 
Thanks Mandy!! Todays weigh in..... 196.4!!!!! I'm so close to 20 lbs lost I can taste it! This has put me in a great mood for this morning!!! :)
 
Thanks you guys!!! I feel great!! And I'm so proud!

I'm going grocery shopping tomorrow. And I'm only getting healthy food. I'm tired of seeing my wife and FD eat a bunch of junk food while I'm trying to lose weight. So... Now we will all be eating healthy! :) it won't hurt them.

I didn't get to go to the gym today. My mommas been sick, so I've been taking care of her. But I did pop in my dvd and did some interval workouts! It's better than nothing. And those things are harder than they look!! Plus I did my crunches and my love handle workouts. So, I didn't do too bad. I'm hoping my momma feels better tomorrow. She has to go to work and I don't want her going in sick. I think it was just a 24-48 hour bug though.

Alright- I've gotta get to bed. I have to get up at 4am and take momma to work. Have a goodnight you guys!!
 
Sorry you're mom's sick. I hope she feels better soon. My mom's been dealing with a nasty cold. Knock on wood I haven't gotten a cold in a couple of years now. Probably just jinxed myself!

I hear you have about having junk food in the house. I rent the basement in my parents home, but we all still share the groceries and everything upstairs. My dad loves to have snack cakes at all times. Last night I decided I was going to have a Devil Dog. It's been such a long time since I've had one of those. I went upstairs, opened the cabinet, and the box was gone! He had eaten the last one. I just smiled and took it as a sign that I shouldn't be eating that garbage anyway. :)

I hope you have a good weigh in this morning.
 
My weigh in today is okay. I gained .4 so I'm at 196.8. I'm about to head to the gym and try to work it off! :)

We got the check from the company that hit our truck. Even though we told them we wanted to go with the lower estimate, he gave us the amount for the higher estimate. And then added $100 for our inconvenience. And apologized again. This company is being very nice about the whole thing! I hope the driver didn't get in too much trouble. But I'm very grateful for the extra money. We could really use it!

My mom is way better today. She's sore from vomiting. But that's about it! :) I dropped her off at work this morning and then after work she's gonna go grocery shopping with me! :) I'm a mommas girl, big time!! She raised me and my sister by herself. So I've always been really close to her! I love spending as much time as possible with her! Hell, i even live right behind her. Haha

Anyways- off to the gym I go. Gotta hit that 20 lbs lost!!! Woo-hoo!!!
 
Glad your mom's feeling better! And hurray about the extra money :) Sounds like a great company!

I agree too about the eating healthy, it won't hurt the others to eat healthy even if they aren't trying to lose weight. You can be skinny and unhealthy so good for you!

Have fun at the gym :) You'll hit that 20lbs lost in no time.
 
Thanks Icychic!!

Actually I came back to edit. After my weigh in this morning, I didn't think it was right. And I realized I didn't weigh 3 times to make sure it was accurate. So I went back and weighed 3 times. And 3 times in a row it said 195.8!!!!!!!
So, actually I have hit my 20 lbs mark!! I'm Sooooo happy!! 180s, here I come!!!!
 
Way to go, br!na!! :party: IMO, those first twenty or thirty pounds are the hardest because you're experimenting and trying to find what works for you and what doesn't. Then you get into a good rhythm of eating better and exercising and the rest starts to melt off. Good job!
 
Thanks so much, Belinda!! I'm hoping the next twenty is a but easier. It took a lot of back and forth to get here!! But I'm sooo happy!! I can feel it and people are starting to notice that I've lost weight! My next goal is to get below 190. :)
 
I went to the gym today. Burned almost 400 calories. Then did my grocery shopping. Then after dinner me and my BFF went for a walk around town. She staying with me for a couple of days. and walking at night after the kids go to sleep is our favorite thing to do! :) don't worry, we don't leave them alone. My wife doesn't like to walk, so she stays home with them. So its some best friend time and exercise! :) I'm hoping to have a good weigh in tomorrow. But even after the walk, I still feel bloated from dinner. So we'll see.

I probably won't get much workout time in tomorrow. It's gonna be a busy day. But hopefully I can squeeze something in.

Alright folks, time for bed. I gotta be back ik at 4 again to take momma to work. Have a good night!!!
 
I'm glad your mom is feeling better. When I was growing up I was a daddy's girl, but when I got into my teens I become closer to my mom. Now we're like best friends. We do everything together, it's great! :)

That's awesome that your weigh in was lower than you previously thought. It's even MORE awesome about that check that you received for your truck. Maybe with that extra money you can treat yourself to that new scale you've wanted? :)

Hope you have a great weigh in this morning!
 
My weigh in this morning was 195.0 I've lost 3 lbs since Monday. I'm happy, but I hope that's not too much either. Seems that I broke through my wall with such force, I just kept going. Lol.

Everyone is still asleep here, so I'm thinking I'm going to sneak out to the gym. :)

Mandy- actually, we were going to look at scales yesterday at walmart, but we forgot. Maybe I can get one this weekend! :)

Alright. Off to the gym I go! I'm ready to sweat!!!!
