I feel like a fat pig today. I know I shouldn't beat myself up about it but I do. I guess I'm just getting impatient for results to be noticable to other people and its just not happening. I'm still just a fat pig. Today at lunch I went out with some business collegues and I ordered a soup and half a sandwich and this guy we were with says "why are you ording that?" and I was like "because I like the soup and sandwich." and he was like, "what are you on a diet or something?" and I said as a matter of fact I am and he came back with "well it doesn't show."

I know I have to work with a bunch of assholes, its unavoidable in my line of work (law enforcement), but that kind of shit is just uncalled for. and he doesn't have any room to speak. I just felt like jumping across the table and beating the crap out of him. He's the kind of guy that thinks his shit doesn't stink, no matter how dirty he is. he's gross. And his wife isn't much smaller then I am, I feel sorry for her if thats what she has to deal with at home, poor lady. He's working on a big project and wants me to contribute to it out of the graciousness of his heart. When we got around to talking about it at lunch I told him flat out that I won't do anything for someone that doesn't show me respect and left it at that. Good luck buddy. Now I'm sure his boss will call my boss and make a big stink out of me not contributing my personal time and effort for free to their project, but that guy burnt his own bridge and I don't think my boss will disagree with me, she hates that guy and she knows I already have enough on my plate without adding somebody elses work to the pile.

Anyways, other then that I've been doing crappy on drinking my water and taking my vitamins. I've been slipping. I need to get control now before I just blow the whole thing. Yesterday I stayed within my allowable calories, but I was starving all day because I had a shake for breakfast, one for lunch and then a not so sensable dinner and too many snacks in between. Today I am back to lunch as my main meal because I just can't make it through the day all the way to dinner with no real food in my belly. After I drink a shake I'm having hungerpains, so I drink water but that doesn't help but for a minute, which makes me want to snack snack snack. I feel better with lunch in my stomach around noon, then I can go till 7 or 8 before I feel hungry again.

Sorry for the foul language, I just needed to vent.
 
Hey There,
Never forget your user name...
I wanna lose it!
And you can :D

It does take time, and it sucks that it takes time, but it is a long process, and to hell with the jerk that made that comment!

It's good that you're looking at how your feeling during the day and change the game plan accordingly! Being flexible and finding what works for you is so important in keeping the weight off...not just getting it off!

Keep at it girl - you CAN do this!
 
Omg im so envious of you, you’re getting jealous comments and from an ass you don’t like to boot you lucky thing. Im green, green I tell you with envy :D
 
OMG! I can't believe someone said that to you!

I would have wanted to punch him too!


I used to work in law enforcement as well bout 7 years ago and men like that are exactly the reason I left that field and went into art.

You're right, you shouldn't, so don't do this to yourself please.

This is classic my dear. I hope you will explore a menu for longevity and ditch the unnaturalness of these kind of plans. I would never discourage anyone from using a jumpstart but it's not realistic to sustain this method longterm.

There is no reason why you can't eat 6-7 times a day with a 1500 calorie a day plan and have something substancial in your belly every waking moment of your day instead of a liquid that basically stops by for a quick visit.
 
oh man i hate asswipes like that, like it's anyones buisness what the heck you are eating. Like because we are fat we must eat like a 12 course meal at breakfast lunch and dinner!:mad: Just try and not let it get to you, and let him loose his ass on his little project, what a jerk!! Good for you on keeping with your plan even under stress that is the real killer right there! keep up the good work and don't let anyone bring you down, you are kickin butt girl!!! later daze...........STAR
 
That guy is such an ass! I'm sorry that you have to be around someone as foul as he is!

Hope you have a great day today though! :)
 
I weighed in this morning for the Halloween challenge and I was still at 225.5, a little disappointing but I'm positive its water retention due to some PMS and I didn't drink enough water yesterday and the day before. I'm on track with water and food today. I did cardio this morning as planned, it was pretty uneventful except the lady on the treadmill next to my elliptical machine totally fell off and it was hilarious. She didn't hurt herself. I about fell over laughing though.
I thought it would be handy to list some reasons why I want to lose weight, since sometimes I just want to throw in the towel, especially when my choice is being critisized.
1) I'm tired of always being the fattest person in most situations
2) I feel uncomfortable in situations where I have to dress up
3) My son's friends call me the fat mommy and even though its coming from four-year-olds it still hurts my feelings
4) I want to be able to run races with my son, he loves to race.

I'll put some more down later.

I was reflecting last night on some of my most painful fat moments. I was really down last night. I used to hang out with these two girls. Both of them were naturally very thin. Neither of them really watched what they ate or excersized and for the most part I felt comfortable with them. I guess you could say we were best friends for a while. We did everything together.
Well, one night we were all planning on going to the bar but my babysitter cancelled so I couldn't go. about an hour after they went a neighbor dropped by and offered to babysit so I could go. So I went. When I got to the bar I walked up behind one of my friends and overheard her telling a guy that the only reason she hung out with me was because when she stood next to me she looked so skinny. I turned around and left and havn't talked to either one since. That was in February. I havn't had any other friends since. Although I have tried to make friends.
 
I just spent my evening shaving my son's head. Poor lil' guy. His teacher called today to say he has headlice, well, not anymore. Now he doens't have any hair. I bicked him down to the skin. He looks just like his father, its scary. I had my hair checked by two different people today and they said I'm in the clear for now but I didn't care, I shapooed that heck outta my hair and I'm going to mayo it before I go to bed and rinse it out when I get up...although I'm still doing bedding right now so bedtime is a long ways off. Its only 10:50 here but I hate not getting enough sleep and I have a long day tomorrow. I hate working weekends. Heck, I work everyday, whats a weekend? lol
So yeah, not such an active fun friday night for us. Yea, I'm lame, I know. if my son wasn't sleeping on the livingroom floor I'd probaby be watching something dorky and dorking out with a bunch of books and magazines. WoooHooo, party at Iwans.
I did fabulous on my diet today. It was a good day. I feel GOOD about ME. potential head lice and all.
 
I figure headlice is par for the course when you have kids. My mom said she went through it at least once a year with at least one of us kids when we were little. Then she told me that at any given time 1/4 of the kids at the school have head lice. I guess when you think of all the people that come through this transient town from other countries it makes sense, and half the kids in the school live in bunk houses or very crowded communal living situations with entire extended families in two and three bedroom houses. I'm not going to let it bother me. Its just head lice. There are so many other problems in this world, at least he didn't come home with pin worms or an intestinal parasite...yet...
Today has been wraught with temptation. I had a booth at the health fair this morning, just helping out volunteer thing for work (community service looks good to the boss lady). Anyways, lots of snack temptations and granted they were all healthy fruits and veggies and such I really try to not eat between meals unless its planned and I know exactly the calories and such that I'm putting in my mouth. I did good, I drank three bottles of water (16.9 Fluid Oz each) that were free so that makes them taste better...right?
Well, thats why I told myself.
I have a question. If I add crystal light to my water does it still count towards my total water intake for the day or does that kinda negate the whole effort?

Maybe this will provoke a fight but I would think it should add to your water count. It's just flavored water, right ?
 
I think those crystal light things are ok. I sometimes use those little individual packets when I drink 16oz water.
