It Starts...

January 6, 2009

Things are really going well. I am on a warpath to 128… and ya know what happens when I’m on a war path??? I lose pounds!!!

Yesterday I was spot on with my cals ending at just over 1500. And that included a tiny piece of cake left over and some ice cream. As I told my mom , “it’s a lifestyle change that DOES include birthday cake!” Nuff said.

This morning I got up and hit the mill. I was going more for time, I wanted to get 30 mins in, but I was so close to 2 miles that I finished it out. 35 mins, running intervals. I was listening to my new Carrie Underwood CD and I would walk 1 song then run 2. I felt great. My back and shoulders are pretty sore from kickboxing yesterday, but a good sore.


I busted out my Jack LaLanne Juicer this morning and made a juice to mix with my protein. I used orange, pineapple, and mango…. Pretty freaking amazing if you ask me. Threw it in with 1 scoop of soy protein and some ice and BAM!!! Instant breakfast!!
Now I’m stuck at work doing a whole lot of nothing, drinking my green tea. Its freaking cold in this office!!! UGH!!

That’s all for now!!

Oh wait! I have some pics I’m going to scan from when I was my heaviest… and blond apparently. I guess my hair has gotten darker over the years… I had no idea I was so light headed! But I will get those scanned and posted over lunch!! Then you can see my chubbiness!!!

Cheers!
 
135 or bust it NOT over. I've got 12 pounds to lose to hit 128 so I'm still on track to hit 135 as quickly as my body will allow it! But I've been on a downward slope for the past 6 months so lets hope I can keep it up for at least 6 more!

Ha you're gonna laugh at the pics... I laughed it was great! :)

Sounds good, let's DO THIS thing! :cheers2:
 
Okay as promised here are a few pics from when I was my heaviest... mind you this was 10 years ago and I was only 14 or so. I think the pic of me in the hat was sophomore year after I started losing. That would be my bff TJ is the glamour shot pics. We had glamour shorts done when we were in 8th grade and again as seniors... I don't have any of the senior pics on me but the changes are huge in both of us... its cute...

Anyway, laugh all you want because I sure did!!!

Cheers!

WOW!!! :eek2: You have come SUCCCCH a long way!! IMPRESSIVE!! And no reason to laugh there cause you were STILL BEAUTIFUL!!! :beating:!!!

...I adore you little lady....!!!! ;) Thanks for posting those! Amazing transformation!!! Really!
 
Hey :)

Wow, those pics are amazing. It's so weird to see pics of when your like 14 and how different people look and how they've aged (in a good way)... I know you can fight your way down to 128! You can do it!

Yup, still beautiful back then!

It must have been rough to be at that body composition at 14--I started high school at 14, and WOW soooooo many girls were like 100-120 lbs, and I think they dress even MORE like hos nowadays, but yeah back then it was hard to feel thin enough. Well, at least for ME, and boy was my body image screwed up back then! Hell, though, at least we're fit, NOW! Right?!?! :biggrinjester:
 
You were beatuiful back then and now even more beautiful. you'll hit the 128 in no time. Dont even worry about it. Hey Costco has the Garmin Forerunner 305 on sale for $95.00 (at least it was in the one here in Novato) it's on clooseout for Costco, but it's really cool. I grabbed one and it's really fun.
 
Thanks guys for the sweet comments. Sadly I do not see a pretty girl behind all that fat... all I see if fat. I think the reason I see that is because that's all I heard from everyone else so it must of been true right??? Maybe it was one of those... well she would be pretty if she were thin.... I dunno....

Oh well, I've matured and lost the weight and will continue to lose the weight until I am happy with ME... I dont care what others think anymore.... it too much of a waste of Energy!
 
Dee, you are truly a beautiful woman, inside and out. Don't let anyone tell you differently (even yourself). :smash:
 
Thanks Trops... I'm trying... its a daily battle to see what everyone else sees... I tend to just see the flaws... but I'm getting better.
 
:iagree: Besides, we both need to be proud and happy where we're at, NOW :)


:iagree: And I AM getting better. Last night at Salsa for once I was acutally the smallest in the room... it was WEIRD!!! And I felt like I was getting judged!!! Ha go figure! But I did have the HIGHEST energy and a smile on my face the whole time.... I don't know how many of those women DON'T smile... its a freaking BLAST!!!
 
:icon_bs: Your "flaws" most women would kill for.

:blush5: You are too sweet! Its funny I went to the eye doc yesterday and he's known me since I was 6 and always comments on how beautiful I am... well yesterday he told me I am the kind of woman every man swoons over... hehehe :blush5: I know I turned all kinds of red.... but it did make my day!! Even if he is an old man.... :smash:
