**end of the line**

Hmm.. your doctor should've really let you take off as much clothing as you could (and be decent of course heh) before he/she weighed you.
Oh well though!
Just keep doing what you're doing! :D
 
Hey! I don't have a lot of time just stopping in to say HI! Hope you are having a good Week!!

I shed everything I can before I weigh at the doctor's office.. the nurse will just have to wait while I strip..lol And I hate water too.. it helps me if I just get a big sports jug and fill it 3 times.. instead of thinking about 8 or more glasses.
 
The doctor's scale always seems to be an awful one! My scale, although probably inacurate, always reads lower than the one in at doctor's office. Have you been weighing yourself at home as well?

I think all the things you mention do add up...if you are just starting your period there is usually some water retention I think. Also the extra clothes for sure (that can be a lot of extra weight!).

Keep at it! I love your logical approach! The one thing that I always have to tell myself is...if I keep at it (keep the calories low & exercise high), it HAS TO come off. Otherwise my body defies the laws of nature!
 
ok, so i got all my water in for yesterday and i weighed myself this morning-I was officially at 162-which was my first official morning reading all week. feeling much better about how i'm eating and how i'm excersizing. I know that in order to achieve your goals you need to not worry about hitting that rollercoaster of high's and low's-but that's normal. what i'll try to focus on is a positive attitude.

although lately i've been feeling like i want the days to roll by-mainly because i want february to get here and my 30 lbs to be gone! i see myself worrying that i wont be able to do it and that this is like all the other attempts i've tried in my life. i know i need to just shun those words straight outta my head and keep going-but its hard.

one of the most interesting things i've been thinking about is why i freak out about my weight all the time and why i am in such a hurry to see it go. the obvious reason is because i hate the way my fat looks right now, and I am not ok with it. therefore in order to not be worried about weight loss, would that mean i need to feel that the weight i am right now isnt that bad? i think that will come more with muscle development in the next week or so. i think i just need to get the ball rolling-and never look back.

p.s.-work is UBER boring and i have this horrible head ache i cant seem to get rid of
=-(
 
Hi fsiidni.

Congrats on your weight loss and it looks like you're getting a good attitude about having positive thinking. :)

And I know exactly what you mean about wanting the time to fly faster. I've actually been going to sleep earlier than usual just so that I can start my next day and be even closer to my weight loss goal. But then I put my mind towards my other goals that have nothing to do with weight loss, then I learn to pace myself.

Sorry about your headache and boring work. Hope things get better and you have a good day. :)
 
Well it sounds like you're doing a mighty fine job of fighting through those doubts and whatnot!
I hope your headache is gone though :( Gosh I hate getting those, but thankfully they only come during my period so...well... I shouldn't be thankful for that b/c that still sucks lol.

You just need to keep that positive attitude up (like we all do) and you will be at your goal in no time! I believe in ya girl!! :D
 
hey girl! i finally stopped by your diary :)

no worries about the dr's scale - simply wearing your clothing plus shoes when you get on a scale adds like 5 lbs to your weight, so it's almost always heavier at the dr's office than it is at home.

and i know what you mean about wanting time to go faster!!! but that's probably why we all have such problems with losing weight - because it is a slow process that you don't necessarily see results in right away. makes it frustrating. . . . . .but also hopefully will help the healthy changes we do become life-long!!

hoping you have a great day! :)
 
yaaay, i'm on page 3! well, i have got to tell ya that i feel great today, i called to work an hour late and it was the best decision of my day. it has made my day go by so much happier! two fold:

1) i got to stay in and cuddle w/ my boyfriend-who of course i have been giving a very hard time in the past week because he decided to join a fraternity. now i hate the fact that he joined one, but i am glad that he only did so to find new friends. he wasnt having a great social life-and now he has a wonderful one. but, i hate stupid fraternities-altho this one is the nerdiest one you can find. anyways, i have been starting fights with him recently-mostly because i dont get to see him as much as i used to, that's because he is pledging for these 3 months. (i hope i can make it!). but its not really that bad, because we spend each night together. but you know, a girl is still a girl and i am gunna have these annoyed feelings, my mistake is acting on them. god this quarter is gunna suck! if i never see another frat boy...

anyways, i jumped on the scale this morning and i think the water thing is working, because i am down to like 161. either is great cause even if i am losing water weight-that's the first to go! i am trying to keep my calories under 1200 and drink all the water i can, so hopefully by sunday i will b 160 lbs! almost at the threshold ! i think i just need to chill out a bit more about my eating, i think i obssess about it a bit 2 much...
 
Yes - change le' ticker girl!!

Frat boys make my skin crawl.. and yet they're somehow super hot.. I'm so conflicted! And don't worry - there's nothing wrong with wanting to see the bf & missing him.. but it's another thing to feel possessive. Just chill :cool: Let him know how you feel, make your point and let it go. :D:D

And you are doing fabulous - don't obsess about the cals. life is too short!! Just be smart about what you eat.
 
Hey fsaiidni! I'm just now getting around to takin a look at your diary and it looks like your doing great so far! Keep it up!
 
hey, so yesterday nite i got drunk and ate, making my total for yesterday something like 1500...eh well i still have two more days this week to make the best out of the final three days i have this week! i am glad to announce that my work is having a potluck and i have already planned out what i am going to eat before i have even gotten to the table, everything is within limits and i am happy to be eating right and what i want. i just need to make sure that the big bad weekend monster doesnt suck the energy out of my motivation. i have already started to plan out what i am going to eat on saturday so i dont get sidetracked like every other weekend. this is going to be a real test.

also, i am going to try for the "get out of bed and into gym clothes" method. which means that i will get the gym outta the way early in the morning on the weekend so I dont procrastinate my way outta it! wish me luck, i'm going to try to visit this site often this weekend to help me stick to it!
 
I just started doing that to - out of bed and into the workout clothes. It worked great today, actually got out and walked before the elemetary school let out which means no traffic. Yay!!

Keep up the great work girl - and smart thinking planning ahead for the potluck. :D:D
 
hey guys, well the weekend is here and i have had all the calories i am allowed to. about 1200 and i'm full. i still need about 5 more glasses of water, but i still have time for that. the first thing i did this morning was go to the gym, it felt great! i couldnt believe i got the gym outta the way before noon! anyways, i was also thinking about buying an mp3 player with video capability-but i didnt want to succomb to ipod's pyramid scheme....(buy everything through ipod's itunes). I was thinking more along the lines of the pc version of ipod--iriver, has anyone heard anything about this device, i was thinking about buying the "Clix" version of it. anyways, i'm kinda nervous to jump on the scale tomoro morning, but I'm gunna step it up!
