Here we go again!

WOO HOO - saw 164.8 this morning!!! It was a big dip, almost 2lbs in one day, so I'm sure it wont stay, but it was nice to see it anyway!!! I will update my ticker tomorrow, as I try to do it on Fridays. Maybe it will still be at 164.? or maybe not - as long as its not over 170 again - lol.

Work is still crazy - I'm looking forward to next week when it wont be so busy and I will be able to catch up on everyones diaries.

Bye for now!!
 
Thanks so much CFL :D I have been lucky so far and it has stayed under 165!!! It is such a nice feeling to see the scale go where it hasnt gone is such a long time. I must admit that it is also giving me a false sense of security tho too. I am continuing to remind myself that this is a wonderful accomplishment but I have not reached my goal yet so it's not time to leave the road of weightloss just yet!!!

Hope everyone is having a great Friday!!!
 
Well this is the first chance I have got to get on here since last Friday!!! Wow - I knew it had been awhile but I didnt realize it was almost a week!!! It has just been one of those weeks where you dont have time for anything.

I have been doing ok with the weight loss this week. I was feeling pretty bummed out on Monday and Tuesday cuz I ate a bunch of stuff that I shouldnt have on the weekend *sigh...why do weekends have to be so hard? I've been doing better since then tho and am starting to feel back to my old self again. I went to yogaletes on Tuesday, hoping that it would make me feel better but it only made me feel worse cuz I was the fattest person there. Normally when I work out I and I start to have all those insecure feelings I just say to myself that I am here for me and I dont care what anyone else thinks of me. I am not there to inpress anyone I am there to improve and impress myself!!! On Tuesday tho it just didnt seem to be working and I actually left yogaletes feeling worse then when I went in. ho hum... Yesterday I was still feeling kinda crappy so I went to the gym again and did 25 min on the elliptical. That really helped to lift my spirits. I find the winter months to really wreck my mood unless I do some cardio regularly. I was actually on anti-depressants for a couple of years but I have been off them for almost a year now. This is the first winter I have had to do it on my own, so to speak, and I am having a bit of a hard time but still plugging away.

I think I am going to go check out the exercise challenges - that should help motivate me to get moving regularly and keep those winter blues away!!!

Hope everyone is having a good week!!!
 
Hey girlie, you can do it....and if things become too much to handle its perfectly fine to lean on the marvels of modern medicine to get you through.

Love ya! Have a great holiday!!
 
Well I definitely had a GREAT holiday but I must confess, I totally overdid on the treats!!! I gained 7 - yes 7!!! - pounds over the holidays. I got an awesome pair of white low rise jeans from my hunny for Christmas and I was planning on wearing them to work today and they didnt fit :eek: - boo hoo hooo:(

I am renewing my commitment to myself tho and I am hoping to get into them by next Monday (15th). Fortunately they are stretch so I wont need to lose the entire 7lbs by then but 4 or 5 would be nice. I am leaving to go to the gym shortly and I am going to try to get back on track with Curves on Monday. My goal for this weekend is to stay away from the junk. I am not going to limit my portions as long as its healthy food.
 
Well I am back AGAIN!!! Didnt manage to lose that 7 lbs - as a matter of fact they have some new friends now - hehehe. I'm going to try to get back on track and get rid of the weight. Those awesome low rise jeans were actually fitting me for a while but that are too small once again. When I tried to wear them last week it was the eye opener I needed to try to get back on track again. I'm currently at 170 and am going to try to be as close to 160 as I can by the end of March!!!

I will keep you all posted on when my jeans fit again - Man I love those jeans!!! I am down a bit from last week (about 2lbs) so who knows maybe I will try them on tomorrow and see what happens.

TTFN

hugs and kisses for all!!
 
Thanks - I will try not to be!!

Busy Busy - got to get back to work. Hope everyone is having a GREAT Wednesday!!!
 
I'm still plugging along - Went to curves Monday and Wednesday - hopefully I will make it there tomorrow as well. I have to figure out what I am going to do tonight for a work out tho cuz I didnt make it to my yoga class on Tuesday due to the snow. I cant decide if I will go to the gym and use the elliptical on the way home or if I should just go straight home and maybe do a work out video. hmmmmm.......decisions, decisions...
 
I have been soooo crazy busy that it seems like I never get to get on here anymore - I have been reading other ppls diaries but just cant seem to get a chance to write in mine. I hope all is well with everyone!!

I have managed to get back in the saddle with my working out again and am doing really well this time around. The curves across the street from my work actually closed down and at first I was really upset about it, but it has turned out to be a blessing in disguise!! I havent worked out this much in years!!! I have been doing all my old exercise videos again, and I am managing 6 days a week now. Im on week 5 and feel soooo much better than I used to. I have more energy and in a much better mood all around.

My diet has not been quite so great tho, unfortunately. So I didnt lose any weight in the last 4 weeks - I actually went up a couple of pounds. I wasnt really concerning myself with my diet tho cuz I figured if I could get into a routine with exercising and make it a habit then I would worry about the diet later. I think this was a smarter way for me to go about it cuz I know I can count my pts and see the scale go down fairly quickly and with the scale going down I wont be motivated to exercise. Now I was going to start WW again next week but the scale went back up into the 170's on Monday so I started it then instead. Im on day 4 of counting my pts and the scale is back into the 160's so I'm feeling pretty good. I'm hoping to see the 150's by the end of June - Wish me Luck!!!

PS - I have been doing all my beach body workouts - I started with the Slim in 6 ones, but it tends to be hard on my knees so I am mostly doing Kathy Smith's:project You now. I started both with the easiest workouts and now I'm doing the hardest ones!!! I really do enjoy the Beach Body stuff - I actually just ordered Yoga Booty Ballet for myself and P90X for my boyfriend (I think he is starting to feel out of shape cuz I am working out so much - hehehe) Oh and one of the girls in the office has TurboJam so every now and again we kick out her office mate, lock the door, put the DVD in her computer and work out in front of her desk. I think everyone thinks we're crazy but we dont care - lol!!

Happy Thursday Everyone - Hope ur Friday is filled with Sunshine!!!
