Gotta get thin!

Aww sweety I'm so sorry about the job. I know how hard it is to find one especially now cause every one is looking. I am trying to find a job too but its hard to find anything that doesn't pay like a joke. I hope you get the house. Don't worry about eating some candy. Every now and then its good to shock your body with some extra calories. If you ever need to talk or yell or just complain I'm here for you. I'll PM you my number I'm here if you need a friend.
 
Thanks Candy, you're the best!

I'm doing better today. I was actually given 3 weeks at my job or until I can find a new one. My boss is being nice about it. He let me go home today so I could spend all day on the job hunt. It's getting tiring.

The good news....ARE YOU READY!?

I woke up this morning and was 118.8 pounds!! My HS weight was 118, I AM SO EXICTED!!

I was down 2.5 pounds this morning (after not weighing in yesterday)

It's probably just weight fluctuations/water weight or something, I don't want to get my hopes up too high....but I am excited!
 
Congrats girl. Hell yea get excited cause even if it is water weight it means you have less than 120lbs of body mass in you. lol Did that come out right. I don't know. Its cool that your boss is giving you some time to find a job. God I need a job lol.
 
I'm doing good!

Today I had a packet of oatmeal for breakfast and 1/2 veggie burrito for lunch (Only 370 calories and it's almost 4pm).

I don't think I mentioned we're putting an offer on the house we want tonight!

It's our first offer, ever, so we're very excited. I'm worried because it's a short sale, and we have no idea what could happen with it...but even if we don't get it...at least we tried! It's a great deal and EXACTLY what we want. Cross your fingers for us!

Also, I had a job interview this afternoon. I've been applying to places like crazy, but I'm really excited about this interview I just went to. I'd be a secretary still, but doing much more than just that. I'm so incredibly excited about it and I hope hope hope I get it.

Anyway, I use this for much more than just my weight loss journal now, but it's helping me. Thanks for all you guys' support!
 
hey Kimmy thanks for stopping by!
hope you are doing great
congrats on the offer! best luck to you
xoxo
 
We put an offer on the house last night!!!! I'm trying not to get excited about it, because it's listed about 30k under market value AND it's a short sale. We would absolutely love to get it at the price it is listed at and there is NOTHING wrong with the house. Both of us are so incredibly in love with it.

We're ready to move on if things don't work out. We're going to leave our offer up for a few weeks, and if nothing comes of it by then (or if we find out we don't get it sooner), there is another house right down the mountain that we are really considering.

Anyway, enough of that. My boss gave me yesterday off, so that I could look for a new job. I had an interview after walking in to drop off my resume! The owner of the company reminded me of ELLEN! The interview went GREAT and my interviewer called my references as soon as I walked out of the office. My current boss gave me a wonderful reference and the owner of the new company said she loved my personality. I'm crossing my fingers. She's only been looking to hire for one day, so I hope she doesn't keep looking and find someone better.

Okay, diet and exercise!
Wednesday
Breakfast: Oatmeal Packet (120)
Lunch: 1/2 Veggie Burrito (250)
Snack: 1/2 Veggie Burrito (250)
Dinner: Chipotle Bowl - light rice, black beans, pico, salsa, veggie fajitas, corn, light guac (520)
NO CANDY!!
Total: 1140

My weight was 119 this morning. Up a piece of a pound from yesterday, but I'm more than excited about it!

FOUR POUNDS TO GO!!

:party:
 
Things are great! I know my moods have been all over the place lately.

It looks like our offer will not be accepted. Someone else offered higher than asking price, BUT THAT'S OKAY! We're going to put a new offer out tonight (on a different property), but I think this one will go much better.

We have 2 months to have an offer accepted, and close, before our lease is up here. We better get moving!!

I THINK I GOT THE JOB!! I'm going to go in there again this afternoon (I went in a spoke with the owner this morning), and she's going to show me around the office and get me familiar with all this stuff. BUT I THINK IT'S MINE!!




I forgot to mention in my last post. I dug out some oooold "interview clothes" that I got at a thrift store years ago. They didn't really fit me then (too small), but I figured if I was only wearing them for an hour at a time, I'd be okay.

I looked at the size of the dress pants today. SIZE 2/S. Today, I am wearing them with no problem. All the buttons button properly and there's no hang-over fat! I'm excited.

I feel good about myself, and good about my life right now.
 
Gym today.

I worked out real hard.
6mph running for 15 minutes
1 minute on the stairs at the highest speed
15 minutes on the bike
Weights - arms, back and legs mostly.
Shadow Boxing - 45 minutes AWESOME WORKOUT
Followed by 15 minute abs.


I think I will be employed as of Wednesday. I hope I hope I hope.
I'm feel very good. Very confident. Very happy.
 
Oh Kimmy I hope you do get the job!
Way to go on getting into your old size 2's.
I don't think I was ever a size smaller than a 14. At least since I can remember that it mattered.
I can't imagine how small I would have to be to fit into a 2! hahaha
Good Luck with everything.
 
See I told you things would be ok. Awesome workout. Monday I am finally gonna go join the gym so I will be kickin ass in no time lol. That sucks about the offer yall put in but yay on the other one lol. Dude I'm in a size 2 also mine just has a 0 after the 2 so go figure. Hope you have a great day.
 
Aww, you guys are awesome!

I can't believe how well I am doing! I was at this crazy plateau for about a month where I was between 120 and 122. I felt like I would NEVER get passed it!!

2 days ago: 118.8
1 day ago: 119
Today: 117.7!

I don't know if it's real! I weighed myself again, just to be sure, and the scale said 116.8! The gym scale last night was saying 119 just like my scale told me yesterday, so it has to be accurate, right!??!

I'm soooo freaking excited! I'm less than 3 pounds from my goal!
 
Hello Kimmy J, glad to see you pulled outta that one. You're glowing. Congratulations on the weight drop(s)!! It's exciting to be almost at your goal. :hurray: Now just gotta maintain, I am sure you'll have no problemos.

Sorry to hear you didn't get the last house, but like they say with every cloud there is a silver lining, and yours seems very sparkly. Have you started the new job?

Lata :seeya:

Thanks RunningGirl!

I actually haven't been offered the job yet! The owner had me come in on Thursday for about 2 hours and show me around and show me everything that I would be doing though! She told me she promised a few people interviews, but she will let me know on Tuesday. I think I've got the job though...I mean, she wouldn't have wasted 2 hours of work day, if not, right??

Anyway, I'm back up to 118.4 pounds. Could have something to do with eating half of a 14" pizza yesterday!! Yikes! We went out to eat with my inlaws yesterday and it took AN HOUR for the food to come. By the time we got it, I was starving and ate it all up. It was good though.

I'm in a brave mood right now. Here are progress pics!

I dropped my husband off at the airport at 9am this morning to leave for a business trip (on a SATURDAY, WTF). It sucks. I don't really have friends here that I can call and hang out with. So I'm all alone this weekend......
 
You're so skinny, girl! I think your body shape may be different than mine (being that you're almost a foot taller than me!), but try to accept your body shape and embrace it.
 
I live for the day that I can have a picture of me taken and my thighs don't touch! lol
You look GREAT!!!
Keep up with everything you are doing.
 
Thanks Bella and Shep! You guys are too nice :)

I don't know what was wrong with me yesterday. My husband left on a plane to Indiana for work and I wasn't hungry all day.

I picked up some frozen healthy choice meals, so that I wouldn't have to cook for only myself. The one I had was pretty awful. It tasted like it should have been pie, but it was ravioli. Gross.

I had:
1 Packet Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal (130)
1 Healthy Choice - Pumpkin Squash Ravioli (300)
2 Servings Green Giant Broccoli and Carrots (120)
1 Skinny Cow Fudge Bar (50)
1 Liter Water (0)

My totals for the day:
600 kcals
17g protein
16g fat
103g carbs

Missed Minerals:
Calcium 736/1000mg
Magnesium 119/310mg
Phosphorus 250/700mg
Potassium 505/3000mg
Selenium 26/55mcg

I'm headed to the pool this morning. I'm excited :)

Edit: Just weighed in. I'm down a pound from yesterday! (I knew yesterday's weight seemed a little high, must have been water since dinner was high in sodium).
My lowest weight in 7 years, since I was 17 years old! BAM!
