Irishprincess weight loss progress!!

Yay! Good job on another great day, Irish! :)


I can confirm from personal experience that your arms will, and do, shrink with continued weight loss! Trust me on this :)


I had terrible issues with 'skin sails' under my arms, but now they've reduced so much that I'm almost embarrassed because I look so scrawny sometimes :p At least the fatty tissue gave the illusion that I had some bulk ;)


I guess I just need to start doing more weight lifting, haha!


Don't worry, everything gets smaller as you lose the weight :) You'll be fine! Promise! :)
 
Weigh in day today, and i only lost a pound:( i thought i would have lost at least 4 pounds because i felt so much thinner this week.


Also had an exam today, and it went okaayish. I blanked on 1 question:(


Hope everyone is doing good xx

Thanks Frogged!!


Thank god, that my arms will get smaller- SUCHA RELIEF!! hehe


Cheers for the kind words bro!
 
Hey Irish, if you felt thinner, then go with that feeling!! That's so much more real than those damn scales that lie all the time. We both know there are plenty of reasons that that number could be off, so just trust your gut and enjoy that! Also I imagine with work and exams, you probably aren't sleeping as much as you could and I find that always throws the scales for me, but then I'll see it calm down when my schedule gets back to normal. BUT, even with all that, I still think you should feel good about that pound, it's still a step in the right direction and you did great all week!


I totally feel ya on the arms, mine've definitely shrunk the least out of everything else, sometimes I'll be feeling good, but then I'll catch a profile shot in the mirror and be like, "damn! my arms are huge!" and then proceed to have one of those fat-ugly days. Thank goodness for Frogged's post, it gives me hope that I won't have to live with the bat wings forever!


Bet you pull a huge number next week, just keep up all that awesomeness, Irish! ;)
 
AHi hon!! SO SO sorry its been so long since I checked in!! :(

But I do know that if you feel smaller its a good thing!! So enjoy that feeling!! I lost inches with out any pounds gone....so its still a good thing.!!!

You are doing so great...I am proud of you!!! Keep it up girl!! :hurray::hurray:

I consumed 1290 calories today. Success. i want to stay eating good for this week.



Hope this week the scales will tell a different story next friday;)



Hope everyone is well!!xx

No bothers Tety:D:D


Thanks for the kind words hun! I have to catch up on your diary tomorrow:D xxxxxx
 
Good day, Princess! :)


Hey, are you by any chance taking progress photos of yourself on a weekly/monthly basis? I understand the hesitation to post anything on the forums, and there's absolutely no pressure to do so! But taking them for yourself is a really good thing when it comes to weight loss. You'll be able to see the changes much more definitively - such as with your arms! I wish I had captured certain areas of my body more closely so I could show people just how the changes occur. Unfortunately, it's just full front/side body shots from a few feet away :)


You're doing so great and you're such a positive force on this forum, Irish! :hurray:


Sending you many happy thoughts and vibes! :biggrin:
 
Hello hello all!:)


Consumed 1690 calories today!!:O I had work for 7 hours today and i am seriously STARVING afterwards. I don't know how i can curb my appeite.



Have an essay for college due in 2 days time and i have not started it yet. OH MAN.



Hope everyone is doing well!! xx

Yay Irish! :hurray: :hurray:


Keep up the excellence! :)


As for rude customers, yeah.. been there. Forget 'em. You're an awesome person and you shouldn't have to conflict yourself with any of that nonsense. It's not worth it! You're a true exception in this world when it comes to being just an all-around wonderful person! Even with the hardships, you still have genuine care for people and a lovely heart - as evident by your amazing kindness and advice on these forums :) That really shows so much inner strength.


I used to have a pretty pessimistic view on life and didn't care much for anybody since they usually hurt me if I ever tried to open up a bit - and that's when they would even give me the time of day to do so! Thankfully, that's all in the past and I'm a different person now :) So, I know how difficult it can be to maintain a good outlook on things sometimes during this process of fixing yourself, so I just wanted to say I'm really proud of you for always enduring, Princess! :)


If only everyone could take a page from this website and see how fulfilling it can be when you're just helpful, supportive, and kind to people - even if you've never met them. It could even develop into a great and positive friendship eventually as well!


Perhaps if that did happen, then maybe there wouldn't be as many problems in this world as there are!


Again, really happy that you're doing well, Irish! :)
