Hello - Angie's Diary

hey girl you can and will do this I know you will! Come on and lets rock it hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Yesterday was a bad day for me. All I did was cry and feel sorry for myself. Kept telling Gene how I couldn't believe he married such an ugly woman, which of course triggered an arguement. I know he thinks I'm gorgeous he tells me all the time but unless I feel it, it doesn't seem to matter. I just feel like I can't do it. I'm so disgusted with what I see in the mirror it's hard for me to get ready in the mornings. This is not good for a newly wed woman, it's not good for our marriage, and it's certainly not fair to Gene.

Well after all of my crying and Gene getting upset with me, we sat down and watched the biggest loser together. I'm not sure if it was the show or my wonderful husband telling me I could do it and he would do it with me every step of the way, but I'm ready to truly start walking the walk.

There are so many people on this forum now and it's so difficult to try and read all of the dairies and post that I feel like I let a lot of you down. If there is anyone out there that feels they belong to this forum and still aren't getting the support they need and want to be a weightloss buddy, please PM me. I feel that although I post I get an occassional post from someone but I don't truly feel that I'm getting the support I need, again I know how difficult it is to post in everyone's dairy I'm as guilty as the next. I'm just looking for a little extra one on one support if anyone is feeling the same way please contact me.
Thanks for letting me vent......

Hi! I just wanted to swing by and offer you some support! From your picture you look so beautiful! please don't judge me by my picture, I had just labored for 5 hours and gave birth, lol. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I know can do this and that you have people rooting for you! Good luck!
 
sorry *I know you can do this* not I know can do this. By the way I think it's great that you want to set a good example for you furture children. That's one reason why I'm getting my weight down too!
 
Well my pity party the other night did wonders for me yesterday and today I'm still feeling great. I had an awesome workout at the gym last night with Gene and we're going back tonight. We decided to have a healthy competition between the two of us. He's going out of town on business on Sunday until Thursday so we're going to see who can lose the most weight. The loser has to cook the other one a healthy lowfat, low calorie, low carb dinner. :)
So of course I had to get on the scale this morning to see where I was especially since Gene drops like 6 lbs in one day when he's getting started. Drum roll please..... I'm weighed in at 195 :) I'm down 6lbs:) :) I made Gene on the scale too, he's down 4 Go me I'm beating my husband!!!
 
WOW!! I couldn't be happier I signed on this morning and so many of the ladies who helped me in the past and encouraged me are back :)
Gene has been out of town since Sunday on business, and I haven't done very well. It's not that I've been eating bad stuff, the truth is I haven't been eating much of anything which is just as bad if not worse. Today's going to be a good day I already packed my food and I'm ready to go :) I could lie and say I'm going to the gym, but Gene comes home tonight and I know I'll want to be home for him so for today I'll stick to my menu and tomorrow I'll have a great menu and throw the gym in there :) I also plan to drink at least 80 ounces of water.


Breakfast
yogurt
snack
apple

lunch
non-fat cottage cheese
carrots
orange

snack
EAS Shake

dinner
grilled chicken
green beans
 
Hey!! Sounds good girl!! I'm glad you sound as happy and motivated as I am! Your menu looks really good WTG!
 
Sooo. Do you think it is purely coincidental that we have all landed back here this week?
You go, girl!! We're pumped to kick some butt!
 
Wooooooooooohoooooooooooo ok lets do this and have wonderful holidays like last year I am so excited!!!
 
I, personally, do not think it's a coincidence that we all came back at the same time. I think it's a Christmas miracle!

Okay, it's a coincidence. But it's pretty cool!

Hey buddy, you better be doing good!
 
Hey y'all :)
Okay so I had a huge reality check this morning, I had a pile of clothes I was getting rid of because they were too big, this morning I had to get in the pile to get something to wear..grrr. No sense making up excuses I've just been lazy. Well my pocket can't afford it...hehe. This past weekend Gene went out and got me a Coach purse that I've been wanting and about 5 gorgeous sweaters from Banana Republic one size too small. You guessed it, that's my motivation. I can't have any of it including the Coach purse until I lose at least 25lbs. He also bought me a huge 74 oz water jug to place on my desk so I drink at least one of them a day. You have to love my husband :) I think he's just tired of seeing me cry about how I look.
Here's today's menu and it will probably stay pretty close to same every day until I get the first 10lbs off, I do better with routine even if it is boring.

Breakfast
bran cereal with skim milk 150

Snack
yogurt 80

lunch
salad with beets, banana peppers, spring mix, and grilled chicken 150
snack
apple 80

dinner
EAS shake 110

snack
ff/sf jello

Going to the gym tonight :)

I admire your willpower, because I'm sure that purse "fits" right, right now! :) You can do this girl and that purse is going to look so awesome on your hip! Kudos to Gene for helping his girl. ;)

Fuunky,
I love that we are all a Christmas miracle. :)
 
Yea to Christmas Miracles!!! Scrappy it has nothing to do with will power it has everything to do with making my husband proud. I know it's suppose to be about me but right now I need to think I'm doing it for him to help me out. It's one thing to let myself down but it would kill me to think I let him down.
