Jae's super duper weightlos diary

Official weight: 220
-2 lbs this week
-15lbs total

15lbs in 9 weeks, I can get pretty close to 200 by Christmas.

Yesterday I did BodyPump (weight lifting) for the first time in two weeks. Owwww. I'm sore today. I wont be taking two weeks off again if I can help it.
Back to the gym today for some cardio.
I'm hungry, but nothing sounds good. :(

But i'm having a problem. I'm feeling, de-motivated. Not to the point where I dont want to work out. I love working out. However, I dont want to push myself harder. I dont want to try to beat my time on the treadmill, I dont want to see how far I can run, I dont want to use the other machines.
Its like i've hit some kind of mental wall. I needz muh fire back!

I know how you feel. I'm kinda there right now as well.

But my own experience says that these feelings are transitory. Give it a little time, and the fire will return.

I think our minds and bodies sometimes need to relax a bit sometimes, maintain the pace but not always push, push, push. That respite gives us the power and will to push ourselves again.

However, if it stays like this too long, you might get into a rut. At which point a shake-up is in order. But it doesn't sound like you're anywhere close to that yet.

Congrats on the 15 pounds!
 
Thank you, that makes a lot of sense. I guess if it was push push all the time our bodies and minds would just fall over. I'll take it steady this weekend and see if I can ramp things up next week.
 
I'm FINALLY feeling better! I can get back into the gym.
My scale died and i'm not getting batteries for it til Friday, so i'm not weighing myself this whole week. Kind of worried, i'm a little obsessive about the scale and seeing where i'm at. .
 
Monday:
ran/walked two miles in 30 minutes
Did a little bit of arm weights
Some cartwheel practice.


Tuesday:
Body Pump and some jogging.
 
I'm back! Woo. :willy_nilly:

Not being able to weigh myself this week has kept me motivated for sure. I'm so worried about actually gaining this week, that i've been very strict with my eating and workout. I mean, obviously just because I cant weight myself it doesnt main i'm going to gain. If I exercise and eat right I will lose.
But I cant shake the feeling that I need daily weigh ins or everything will just fall apart.

I was only able to work out for 15 minutes last night. But it was an intense 15 minutes haha.

Tonight is Body pump, cardio, and then some salad for dinner.

SO hoping I lost 2 or 3 pounds this week. Thats my goal and it would be nice to hit it. 3lbs would put me over the moon!
 
with all that you've said you've done, I bet that you hit it no problem!

Salad sounds good, I think I'm going to go out to the garden and pick me some tomatoes too. :) Good luck with your weigh in!
 
Thanks for stopping by! :) -- You got the right mind-frame to do it girl.. so I know you can!! :) Good luck on your journey! I hope to check back and you dropped 3lbs +!!
 
Thank guys!

I DID IIIIIIT!!!! :party:
Official weight: 217
Weight lost this week: 3lbs!
Total weight lost: 18lbs

Im so close to losing 20 lbs. wow. I'm almost afraid to take new body shots to compare to my old ones, i'm afraid there wont be any different. :leaving:

I'm only 17lbs away from being 200lbs... Im going to cry happy tears again.
 
Thank you so much!
This weeks goal is to lose 2lbs. Christmas is getting closer and I want my pole! From here on out, its WAR against the fat. No more miss Nice.
 
Thanks!

Ugh the weather is awful and making everyone sick. One day it was hot, the next its cold. My nose is stopped up and my husband has a cough.

I ate so badly this weekend. I was hormonal and just craved terrible things but god it was good. It atleast made me less grouchy. I went to the gym yesterday and ran/jogged for a half hour. I would put the treadmill on a 7 percent incline to run. I also did some light weights and then the sauna.

Tonight is salad night, thank goodness because if I had to cook i'd just say screw it and go out for a burger. Im going to do my best at the gym tonight but I dont think I can do body pump.
 
Alright two pound gain this week putting me at 219. But thats cool since I was expecting it. I was actually prepared for more weight.

It should come off quickly though, and I have decided that I will be 215 by next Friday. I'm feeling better mentally and physically than I have been. I've gotten all of my sweets craving out of my system.

Tongiht I will try for the first time ever, to cook fish. Tilapia. I've got a few recipies to pick between, if anyone else has any advice on sides or anything I am all ears.
 
Very easy, but you have to be careful not to overcook it. It goes from just right to overdone very quickly - kinda like fish. :)

I steam it until it turns a bright, vibrant green, give it another minute and call it done.
Only takes a few minutes total.
 
WEIGH IN FRIDAY:

This week I lost 4lbs, putting me at 215 and 20lbs lost total. :party:


p.s. I didnt like the fish!
 
It is so awesome to check in on people like you and see that you are continuing to have success. You're doing great, keep it up girl!
