I decided to make a new diary. I signed up for a 22 week mega weight lose challenge and i know i am going to to need alot of support to get throught this. I started this life change 2-16-9 and so far i have lost 25lbs which i am very happy fori will add a few pics and just let me know what you think..

back in dec. 08 i was 209 went on a diet and lost 14 lbs but went off and gained a little back so then i started my life change on 2-16-09 at 205.5lbs and am currently at 179-181 i keep going back and forth because this past week i have not been able to get into the gym do to work and personal reasons but starting tomorrow along with my challenge i am hitting the gym hard mon-fri again.
I look foward to meeting anyone willing to want to help make a difference .

Hey sexy (I had to). All jokes aside (though you really do good!), good luck on your goal. It seems you have the momentum going...keep the ball rolling! The hardest part is getting it moving, now you just have to keep it going.

It seems you may be repeatedly weighing yourself (you say you're fluctuating which is normal). Remember, weight is just a number. There's no number you have to be to look good...just keep doing things right and you'll get there. I weigh myself once a month...but know I'm doing things right. Looking at what you weigh every day may set things back...so be careful with that! Hope to see you around as I'm new to this site as well. Good luck!
 
Hey Maggie! Just wanted to introduce myself and I'm excited for our challenge! You are so adorable and in the pics above, 25 pounds makes a HUGE difference. I can see it in your face! Keep up the good work and I'll be watching you!
 
I have to agree with Banshee, you can really see the difference in the face especially! Congrats on your success so far, and keep it up!
 
Girl you look smokin!!! Hey 25.5 is 25.5!!! Id be jumping up and down! You can totally tell. You are beautiful.. then, and now ;) im sure you feel amazing. Keep running towards the finish line!
 
thanks ALL for the kind words.
Just got back from the gym and let me tell you it felt great to be back in my routine, i really missed this feeling of acomplishment i always fel so good about myself after a hard workout.

BANSHEEBABE!... i am so excited about this challenge i think we are all going to do great in it, i am really hoping to reach my goal by the end, and if i do. i am so treating my self to something amazing.. good luck.
 
today went pretty good, a busy day as usual and i know the next 2 days are going to be very busy and stressful but thats ok cause i will continue to go to the gym and eat healthy and i am so gratefull i have found this site because if it weren't for this site i would have fallen of course and gave into my old routine. so thank you all
 
I stumbled across your journal and just wanted to say hi! :)

Congrats with the 27 lbs...you can really tell the difference in your face (that's where I seem to lose it first, but I like that). You're really pretty!
 
it's been a couple of days i have been so busy with work and the gym, not sure hwta happen today but i just was not feeling good all day kept getting dizzy and feeling like i was just gonna faint not sure why, i skipped the gym came home had a lil dinner and colored easter eggs, which i hate doing only because it ends up being a huge mess.. anyways i am so glad tomorrow is Friday i feel so worn out from this week i can not even think straight... hopefully tomorrow will be a better day...
 
Hey girl! Just checking in on you! How did your weekend go? I hate it when I'm not feeling up to par before I hit the gym... sometimes I go anyway and sometimes not... it's a never ending battle...
 
have not written in like a week but the 1st week challenge weigh in sucked ass cause i was kinda under the weather all last week and weekend i ended up gaining a few pounds. i really dont want to say what was wrong with me cause it's kind od gross but this is my diary and if well you dont like it then dont read it. anyways i have changed my diet completely which has cause a lot of problems in my diegestive system causing some major constipation..lol yeah i know not what you want to hear anyways at first i thought well i will eat like a pig maybe that would help cause certain food with help in that department so i ate everything pizza, ham dinner for easter anything and everything but that only made it worse, going almost 7 days without being able to go HURTS.. so Sunday i could not take it anymore. so i took 2 stool softners, 2 laxitives andnothing so that night i drank a half bottle of that nasty ass cherry magnesium stuff OMG i will never drink that stuff again. so did it help that night NO WAY. i was up all night feeling like i was in labor with triplets... Monday rolls around i had no choice but to do my weigh in and measurments i was so bloated it was horrible. so i called my doctor and begged her to give some advice.. she tells me to come in.. HELL NO just in case after i got off the phone it all kicked in thank god i took off work or i would have been in trouble. so anyways i weighed myself today and i actually lost the weight that i had lost at the beginning of last week plus some so i am super excited about the weigh in. and by the way i feel so much better. the only other way of decribing how i felt it was like the cartoons back in the day when they would swollow a weight and it would go right to there ass. thats how i felt. so does anyone know what i could do to prevent this from happening again...
 
i can't say i've ever been constipated, well to my knowing...but my suggestion would also be fiber and water. but since that didn't work, hmm...

my body is really sensitive to a lot of things, so i try to avoid them cause it causes the opposite of constipation, lol...chinese buffet, anything deep fried, or the combination of hot wings & beer. i know that's all bad for you, but hey, whatever works!! :)
 
yeah thats what i did thinking that would work, pizza, dallas hot weiners, i even drank a glass of milk cause i am LTT.. but nothing. i am gonna talk to my doctor and see what i can do to keep things going..
