dreamingblue's Journey

Yay for you and your buddy!!! :D That must be quite motivational, seeing your name up in lights!!!

You star you! :D
 
Thanks Kori. Yes, it's very nice and motivating. Hopefully I can do the same thing for the month of June. I just gotta keep my focus. :)
 
congrats girl! i'm so happy for you! plus those numbers are still going down well!

i wanted to say thanks for all the encouragement, i've just had a really hard past couple of days...but i'll stick with it till the end of the week and if i'm still increasing might revise my calories downwards just a little bit. but for now will keep hanging in there, i know that upping my cals is best especially since i still have such a long way to go so will just hang in there. xoxo

Yay, I go into Curves today and the lady told me that she thinks that I'll be at the very top of the May Top Losers board! :D I'm happy... My friend will be on the board as well. Way to go us!

So yesterday, until about half way through my workout, I was a little disappointed because I thought that I wasn't the top one on the board anymore. The number next to my name said 14.5. And I was thinking that wasn't right, cuz I had only lost 9 lbs. I was like, oh crap, I'm really not at the top - what a disappointment - now they're gonna have to do the whole board over again. So I mention it to one of the lady and she reassures me that 14.5 is the weight that I lost plus the inches that I lost added together. PHEW. lol.

I seem to have went up a little again. 309.2. I think I'm gonna have to stick to my guns and only weigh myself once a week. I ALWAYS say that, and it never happens. I'm gonna try. Hide my scale from myself or something...
 
Just got back to from a Curves workout. And it didn't go so well cuz I'm extremely lazy today, not sure why. I was really dragging. Hopefully I'll feel more energetic tomorrow so I can make up for what I didn't do today.
 
Hello Everyone...


I've been slacking. Argh.

And I think I broke my toe. But I'm not sure. I was playing with my dog... tried to kick a ball, instead I kicked the floor, really hard. Hurts like hell.

I've been doing okay with the food, but not with the exercise. I've just been really lazy. I'm wondering if my calories are too low and now I'm starting to feel it.

hey girl, sorry to hear about your toe, you should definitely get it checked out if the pain is excessive.

great to hear you've been eating right, as for exercise sometimes a few days rest does help to re-energise. i hope your energy levels increase coz i know what a downer that is, maybe as you suggested you should check if your getting enough cals, i could be wrong but i think also sometimes the types of food matter too. i find on the days i have more fruit/veg i feel better than the days when i don't get as many in.

hope you feel more energised soon and continue to keep kicking a$$ at curves! xoxo

Feel better soon, Dreaming, but good on you for sticking to eating right. That's difficult to do especially if you're feeling down.
 
Hey Guys, Thanks for always dropping by and the kind words :)

The toe feels better. I don't think its broke, thank god. I'm such a wimp when it comes to pain.

I had to drag myself to Curves today. And while working out I felt like I was going to faint. My head started hurting and then I got dizzy. But I hung in there and kept doing it.

I think I was dehydrated because after drinking some water I felt much better.

So far the food has been okay today. I had toast and fruit for breakfast. A granola bar. A turkey burger for lunch. And I'm gonna eat some pot roast for dinner. And then some fruit for a snack tonight.

I think I'm gonna do some exercises tonight again, after dinner, I kinda want to make up for what I missed these past few days....
 
Hey there Dreamin.. sorry to hear about your toe :( I am a wimp with pain too, so can understand why you thought it was broken hehehe.

Urgh motivation, it's pita when it goes on vacation isn't it!!!! Stick with it though hun :) you know the "drought" will break eventually and you will see the scale move again.. maybe to keep things interesting try upping or lowering your cals to see if that makes any difference :)

:grouphug:
 
Hi Dreaming,
Just found your diary and its great! Hope your toes better. I totally know how it feels when you dont have the motivation to excercise which then brings you down. It will pass. Keep up the good work :)
 
Kori, Katutzi... Thanks for stopping by. :)

And OMG

I weighed myself today and it's 306.4!!!!!! I can't believe it. I haven't weighed myself for a few days and it dropped pretty low.

I guess the rest helped me. Maybe all my body needed was rest. Woot :D
 
I think I'm kinda burnt out with weighing myself everyday now. I like seeing a big number drop at the end of the week. It's great motivation.
 
hey, i hear ya! I used to do that whole, weighing every day thing, but yea, it does get old, and the one big loss at the end of the week is far more exciting! I see you've lost almost 20 pds now!! wtg!
 
Yeah, wow 20 lbs. I'm proud of it, but I also don't really acknowledge it. I feel like I should have never been in the 300s in the first place. I remember about two years ago I was about 300, and I seen myself climb up and up and up - the highest that I know that I've been is 331 lbs. I remember stepping on the scale and seeing that number around Oct 08. But when I was 331, it felt like something that wasn't real, like it was a mistake.

So yeah, I've lost that amount, but after I'm out of the 300's then to me it will feel like the journey is really beginning...

I know that's a silly way of looking at it, but that's how I feel.
