Irishprincess weight loss progress!!

AHey Kate how did u go today?
How was ur first day of college, hope it all went fab for u.
Looking forward to hearing how u got on today x
 
GUESS WHAT?!


Today i got over my fear, and went to the gym!!! YES THATS RIGHT, YOU HEARD ME. I went to the GYM!:hurray: I am sooooo proud of myself:):) I have it free since i go to college so i might as well make use of it!!! I did 20 mins of the bike and burned 160 calories:) I was sweating buckets!! During the last 2 mins, this bitchy girl i once spoke to yeaaaaaaaars ago sat next to me on the bike and she was super skinny and pretty, i was so so jealous of her.


Anyway im going to start going to the gym more often now it felt so good and refreshing to go!:) Hopefully now i will have the courage to go other days too:):)


I consumed 1660 calories today and on top of going to the gym i walked for 60 minutes today!! First day of college went kinda boring to be honest!!:) I hate going to lectures!! I like the socialising bit though hehe


Weigh in day is tomorrow and i hope i lost a good number:)

I will update alllllll tomorrow:):)

xoxox


Day 04 - Your greatest fears about weight loss.[/b]


My greatest fear is that when i do lose weight, i still wont be seen as attractive to the guys that i find attractive!!:( Also my biggest fear is i will always be known as the' girl that used to be fat' I will never be seen as ' oh yeah she is thin' Also the other fear i have is that when i do lose more weight, what if i get more stretch marks?! like i already have enough as it is:(

Yeah her body is unreal there. So so jealous. Yeah i go to a university that looks like what you see in those movies:) haha, im doing business:) i do enjoy Uni but there is so many pretty girls around campus and it can be so hard not to compare yourselfs to them!

My inspiration which I didn't have till last nite when I watched Burleuqess for the first time is Christina Aguilera!! She looks amazing in that movie....curvy...petite and thin!! that is my dream body!! Hell I'd take any movie star body for that matter!! haha

Thanks tetemcg!! Oh thats cool, i never saw the appeal of Christina, she always came across slutty and her body is not as toned as Britney, saying that i have not seen Christina body in Burleuqess:)

I love Dita Von teeses body as well. So jealous of her tiny waist and curvy hips.

Hey darling, college was only blah!! I felt like my friends didnt have time for me:(

But i went to the gym for the first time ever and also im trying to stay positive:):)

Hope today was a great day for you:)

xxxx
 
AWAY TO GO GIRLIE!! GO GET YOUR SWEAT ON!!!

I am so proud that you went to the gym!! screw the bitches in the world....they don't have heart...you do!! you will be a better person on the inside and the outside...all the have is looks!! I could just hug you!!

Keep it up!! you deserve it all in life!!!
 
ACongrats on going to the gym!!! The weirdest thing is, I have a fear of going there too!!! You are doing so great hun, i'm proud of you!
:hurray::hurray::hurray:
 
Guys had such a disapointing day today. Firstly, slept in. So didnt bother going to college today!! I know how baaaad of me! Then weighed myself and ive gained 2.24 pounds. So so horrible since ive been eating good for the last 5 days and exercising:( Hopefully its because of my period which is kinda dying off today. I literally cant let this get me down:(



Todays exercise consisted of 4 mins climbing the stares. My heart was pumping so much.


Day 05 - Why do you really want to lose this weight? Are you doing it for you?[/b]


I am DEFINITLY DOING IT FOR ME:):)I want to lose weight so i can feel more comfortable in my own skin, also i want to get attention from the opposite sex. I want to be able to wear nice clothes, i want to finally be able to wear jeans!! I know people might think ' what the hell sure you can wear jeans now' but i dont like on me at the moment since i have a crappy big stomach! I want to not have a double chin, i want to appear my age! I want to live for the moment because my weight has stopped me from achieving so many things i wanted to do in the past:)

Hey Amanda my love, Thanks so so much love, you should so so go. No one will judge you there. I thought they would judge me but they didnt:)

Hope you had a great day Amanda:) xxxxxxxx
 
AHey Kate my lovely.
Don't worry about those 2lbs...don't let it get u down. When my sister did bootcamp she put on weight and apparantly it happens quite commonly.
I am super proud of u for going to the gym, make sure u keep that up and the weight will fall off.
Chin up darling...you r doing fabulously well and we r all proud of u.
180 by Xmas woohoo
 
ADon't worry about the 2 lbs! Maybe it's muscle? I think next week will be a big loss if you keep up the good eating and exercise!
 
Hey Princess


Hope you are feeling better today. I usually skip weight in when TOM is in sessions....I find that it usually adds like 2 - 5lb and my emotions are already all over the place so who needs that extra stress!


Also when I was catching up with you diary I remember reading about you going out with friends and being worried about doing too much damage...I hjave two tricks when eating out...a few hours before I will eat a huge bowl of home made vegie and lentille soup it's filling full of fiber and protein and low in fat, and when I get to the restaurant I am not super hungry and it,s easier to pick something ealthier and also I don't over eat...


2nd when I know where I am going I look up to see if they have a menu online that way I can plan ahead I can choose something and fit it into my daily calories and when I do this at the restaurant I don't even take a look at the menu so I don't get tempted with bad gooey stuff.


Good job on going to the gym....you are doing right by taking advantage of it, I wish I had the chance.


It's a little late but I wanted to say congrats on the job...don't worry about meeting new people you have such a great personality that I don't beleive there is anyone outthere who can not like you! Just be yourself and all will work out great!
 
Guys im EXHAUSTED.



Back to college sucks im so so tired:( Consumed 1285 calories today and walked for 50 mins:)


Didnt consume ANY chocolate whatsoever today, which is a first in about i dont know how long...... maybe a month!! HURRAY:hurray:


Also told my mom i want to be 180 pounds by christmas, and she doesnt think its possible. She said ' if you get to 210 pounds you will have done so well love' lol


I apologise for not visiting peoples diaries lately. Im just so busy at the mo:(


Hope all is well guys


xoxox


Day 06 - Do you binge? If so, explain why you think you do.[/b]

Yes i do binge, i havent done so in a week. Thank god!! I binge because when im feeling happy i eat and when im feeling sad i eat. I also reward myself with food, and i dont mean a meal or anything i mean BINGE. Its awful because afterwards i feel so so terrible, and i didnt even enjoy the food in the first place:) Its never worth bingeing and im only learning that now. I am supposed to have my cheat day saturday but im not going to bother now because i feel i need another week to have a treat day as i gained 2 pounds last week. Also when i binge i never actually think of the good thats going into my body at the time!

Congrats on no chocolate! When you said that you made me realize that I have been eating chocolate every day for a veryy long time! I didn't eat any today either! You sound like you are still doing a great job, and your mom may be right about the 180 by christmas but we can still try for it! Xoxo

Losing that much weight in like three months would be reaaally tough and probably unhealthy too! So I have to agree with your mom on this one. But every lost pound counts! So just make sure you don't gain any and you're good to go :) xoxo Stay strong!
 
ADon't fret over gaining those couple of pounds. I know for me, during that TOTM I gain 5lb and it doesn't go away until a day after it ends. Also, if you're exercising, you have to remember that you gain muscle. Muscle has weight, so pay attention to Body Fat % :).

Great job on getting more active! I'm so bad at that, but it feels so good once you do it.

I love that 30 day challenge. I think I'll do it too!

Also, you MIGHT make it to 180 by Christmas, but a more realistic number would be 190. A healthy weight loss is 2lb a week, generally 8-10lb a month. Christmas is about 3 months away, so if you really stick to it, you COULD lose 30lb by Christmas :). That's something motivating to think about. BUT even if you don't lose that much, as long as you lose something, you're still doing great. Honestly, just keep at it, and be proud of what you've lost so far!
 
AGreat job on the abstaining from the yummy goodness!!!

I think go big in your goals...just have a more realistic base line goal in case your "dream mini" goal doesn't happen. Like mine for my cruise in November...I want to be 50 pounds down by then...thats only 7 weeks away....and I am only losing 4ish pounds a month,,,,so my base line goal is 175....but my dream goal is 170!! Just my crazy theory...hahaha...to each their own!!

You are doing so great....and I am cheering for all your successes in life!!
 
My favorite little weightloss partner! I miss you lately. Hope you are doing well!! Don't forget to workout today hun! I have been in such a great mood lately, so excited for us to lose this weight together!

Xoxo
 
Here is how I do my Veg soup


I chopped one large oignion, 2 to 3 branche of celeri very fiinely (the kids eat too so I have to hide some of the ingredients) and I cook em at the bottom of my pot in a little olive oil about 1 min

then I add diced tomatoes (can or home made depending what I have on hand about 19oz) then I add some carrots I then add about 6 cups of water and vegetable boullion cubes I let boil for 10 min then I add some chopped green cabbage and a can of lentil. Wait 5b min and you got soup...when I don`t have to share with the kids I add a bit of cayenne pepper to give it a bit of a kick!

That sounds tasty! & It seems pretty quick and easy to make. I'm gonna have to try that! :biggrin:
 
Im so embarrassed to report to ye lovely people that today I LOST CONTROL. I cant believe it, i COMPLETELY lost control. I dont know what happened to the girl last night that was so positive about this entire diet malark but today i stopped calorie counting and just ate whatever i want. I feel so so bad but i feel like tomorrow is a new day and i wont leave this get me down. I think maybe one of the reasons i broke out was due to stress and exhaustion from college. My timetable is all over the place. I walked for 50 mins today:)


I feel bad that the last week i couldnt post as much as i used to in people's diaries. All my friends went out tonight and i stayed home and had a nap!! So so so tired.


Thank you ALL soooooooo much for the kind posts!!:) They make me smile so much and continue to motivate me. I feel guilty that i broke out guys, and im sorry about that:(



Hope all you beautiful people had a great great day

xoxoxo


Day 07 - Do your friends and family know you’re trying to lose weight? Do they support you?[/b]

Well my family know and they 100% support me. Which is obviously a good thing, i didnt tell all my friends about me trying to lose weight because 1) i feel weight is such a sensitive subject and 2) i dont want to say it to them incase i give up. I have told 2 of my closest friends though and they have been very supportive and positive about the entire thing which is of course great:)
