If You Fail Try Again...

Well I peeked today at the scale and so far it's not looking good for me this week. I've been doing everything right, but I'm thinking having a big number last week might hurt me a bit.
 
Don't think that! Tho thats kinda how I feel too :blush5: it hasn't moved a bit :( HATE that... Oh well. Next week'll be better :)
 
Just wanted to pop in and wish you (and us) luck this week in the challenge! I hope the scale will be better to us on Tuesday. You've been doing awesome though!

I've been trying really hard, but the scale has not been nice to me the past 2 weeks, this week I think it's cause of TOM. So I'm hoping to see something on tuesday!

How's your week been going?
 
Quick update seeing as I've pretty much only been coming on here to post in my challenge stuff lately. Gotta get back in here more often. I've been crazy busy the last couple weeks. This weeks weigh in resulted in -0. Sad.. sad... Ok moving on to a new week! :)

Update on the dating life. We've gotten together twice now, but i'm still not sure how I feel about him. I'm on the fence and I think this week will be my make or break week with him. I'm not into wasting my time anymore on something that will become nothing. And its not that he did anything wrong or something like that, I'm just not sure if I feel a connection. Yea, hes hot and intellegent, but for some reason theres just not that attraction of I just have to be around you all the time... if that makes any sense?? Kinda like eh, I could do with or without it. Sounds bad I know, but I'm looking for something long term...

Ok made my list for what I'm giving up for lent. I am not religious but I do like to participate in lent.
1) I will become Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian for Lent. AKA no meat, but can have dairy and eggs.
2) No Soda
3) No Candy.. I LOVE CHOCOLATE!
4) No Fast Food with the exception of Starbucks and Subway

What are you guys giving up for lent??
OK well need to get my nap on so I can go back to work in an hour, and then after work I need to go grocery shopping for the first time in like 2 weeks. I think I will need to tattoo the vegetarian thing on my hand cuz even though I dont eat alot of meat there is still meat in things I eat that I never really pay attention to...aka my sushi..ravioli ect.. Have a good day everyone!
 
I stopped giving up stuff for lent since my parents stopped making me do it, lol. Although it couldn't hurt to do it.

What kind of dates have you been going on with that guy? Maybe you're just not in the right setting to get to know him and him to know you. Maybe you need something more romantic. If he's done nothing wrong and he's intelligent and good looking on top of that, it would be a shame to not give him enough of a chance to see if it'll work out or not. I mean, I totally understand you not wanting to waste your time if it's not right, but just make sure you give it enough of a chance before making that decision :) Good luck!
 
Ok guys, life is still stressful right now. But I am rededicating once again to this forum. I feel like a broken record when I say that this forum is what keeps me going and accountable. I'm working through my personal/family issues slowly, but I realize I need to put myself first and stop worrying about everything else in life so much. I still have been going to the gym, but deffienlty not as often as I was. I need to get my motivation back. I'm fed up with being over 200 lbs. It's my time! I finally want to look how I've always felt on the inside. Today is a new day!
 
After seeing a "product placement" spot in last weeks Biggest Loser, I decided to stop at Walmart tonight and pick up the new Yoplait Greek Yogurt. I've never had Greek yogurt before, but I figured I'd give it a shot. I picked up a strawberry and a vanilla flavor. I was lookin forward to the honey one but sadly they were sold out. Had the strawberry one.. it was ok.. not what I was expecting. Could of been a little better, but I'd probably buy it again for the fact that it has 12g of protein in it alone.

Total Calories for Wed 4/28: 1472
 
Today overall was a good day. I woke up at 7:15 to be at a meeting with my food rep by 9. I'm surprised I didn't crash at all today... also could have been the Starbucks I had on the way to the meeting though :). And work went pretty good for the most part as well.

I was quite annoyed with some things that happened today though. Peoples attitudes have been hitting a nerve with me lately. Certain people I work with are so damn negative about absoutly every little thing. Stop over exagerating everything, you wont be so damn stressed and freaking out all the time....

ok rant over. :)

Food wise, I did very good today. I'm trying to get into the mentality of eating for fuel. I'm not going to step on the scale for 2 weeks and just going by how I feel for now. Last time I weighed myself was this past Saturday, so I have an idea of where I'm at. Ok gotta go! talk to you all later.
Today's Food Total: 1292
 
Another good day. My BodyBugg says I burned 3073 calories today!! Whoo hoo. Gotta love when I burn over 3000 and never even worked out haha. If my bosses say I don't work I'll be like ya? well my bodybugg says I did alot of stuff today! lol
Hoping to get my new headphones from my friend tomorrow. He got them in on Tuesday and I've been patiently waiting for him to bring them to me. It's sooo hard for me to be motivated to work out without my music! So lets cross our fingers that he follows through and drops them off at my work tomorrow!! :) Have a great night everyone. Going to try to go to bed now!

Today's Food Total: 1243

Miiah- The Carmen DVD is great. I actually have recently misplaced mine though. :(

Today was another good food day.. not a very good emotional day though. I've been on a roller coaster when dealing with my emotions lately. Hopefully that will all level out a bit more soon.

I'm not going to lie... I am broker than broke right now. No cash = no groceries. Also didn't work today so didn't get any of the food I have at work as a backup in case I run into a day like today. So please don't think my low calories for today is an everyday thing. Its just a case of no food in the house (scraped the peanut butter jar clean, the last fiber bar ect..)..so didnt eat much. I work tomorrow, so I will have a better food day then.

Sounds like you're doing great with your food every day. I need to get back to the mentality of eating for fuel. Lately I've been stuffing my face with everything. Keep it up!

Ok, what a crappy week. As if I already don't have enough crap going on in my life, on Tues morning when I walked out of my apartment to go to work I found out that my car had been SPRAY PAINTED!! ALL OVER... EVERY PANEL!!! Are you f'n kiddin me!!!! I have the person in mind who I think could do it.. the only person who is my enemy at the moment at least. My sister. Yeah. Well so far she hasn't confessed, but shes acting guilty enough that I have her city police involved now.(she lives 45 min from me) So we'll see. Hopefully she just admits guilt so I dont get stuck paying my deductable out of pocket...which I dont have of course. This just sucks. All this bad karma... I'm still waitin for the GOOD!!!

ok now on to food...
Yesterdays Burn: 2728
Yesterdays Food Total: 1348

Todays Food Total: 1157.. really need to up my calories!

Still trying to be positive though.. going to go do a killer workout tomorrow after a long day at work. I really need to blow off some steam... And weekend nights the gym is always empty so I can go crazy by myself. :)

I think I want to set a challenge for myself kind of like marathon man... see how many miles I can bike in a week on the stationary bike... wish I had money to buy an actual bicycle... MY BIRTHDAY IS COMING UP IN JUNE IF YOU WANT TO BUY ME ONE!!! :)
lol, love you all and I will see you tomorrow!! Goodnight!

Things have been going really good. Lost some weight this week.. about 3.8 lbs... finally getting to relax a little before more drama starts up tomorrow. The next 2 weeks will be a real test for me. I am going to be even more stressed than I have been with court coming up on the 25th and more phone calls to the DAs office and what not that need to be made. Also getting my car fixed this week hopefully. Usually when stressed I go on binges. Tonight at the grocery store I was falling back into that mind set of just wanting to bury all of my feelings with food. And instead while at the store I called my mom. Even though I didn't tell her what I was feeling (she doesnt know I binge eat).. I got her to start talking about calories and food and what not and it really made me make much better choices. She has been there every time I try to lose the weight and shes always the person that I call to tell her my weekly weigh in total. I'm really glad I have her support when it comes to this journey. :)
Won't have updates on daily BodyBugg burns though because my Bugg died Friday night. :( Going to call customer service and see what they can do. Hopefully its under warranty and they can send me a new one! Cross your fingers. :) Have a good night all!!
