Kadie :)

Hi Kadie,
Just checking and saying hello :) I think your plan of 1200 + the work outs is a great one!
 
Kadie, I sooooo know what you're talking about because I grew up as a dancer. You can read the first post in my diary for the details, but after years of excessive dieting and health problems and having to go on medications that caused weight gain, I am FINALLY trying to gain control.

You may not have had a serious eating disorder, hon, but like me you have a very disordered attitude towards food. It is just as important for you to learn to eat ENOUGH as it is for you to eat well. For the exercise you are doing etc, you are not eating enough. Take this as a time not only to lose weight but to get healthy. I'm there for you girl!
 
Thanks sillygirl. I am really ready to make the change, I promise.

A friend of my brothers, the daughter of a teacher/sponsor of a club I was active in during high school, passed away a few days ago from an eating disorder. It is one of those situations that everytime I think about it my stomach just knots up. Death has been somewhat common in teens in my town, we kind of have a spring time curse but that never makes it easier.

Today
Breakfast: unsalted almonds and walnuts
Snack: fatfree pudding
Lunch: wheat pasta with olive oil and garlic salt
Dinner: 1 1/2 slice cheese pizza and 1 cheesey bread

No exercise :( I didn't have a good day.
 
cheerios
wheat crackers and skim cheese
angel hair pasta, apple
steamed brocolli, 1/4 cup rice, soy burger, steamed carrots...

Meh, it was an okay day. I'm just having a rough time lately...
 
cheerios
cheese and wheat crackers
mac n' cheese

I'm not sure what is for dinner yet... we'll see
 
So sorry Kadie about the death. It's almost like you know what you need to do to get down to that healty weight after experiencing some sort of eating disorder taking someones life. Starving yourself is very traumatic and even lethal. I was the type of person that would never eat breakfast, lunch and sometimes supper if I didn't remember supper. I am getting better at eating when I am hungry but not eating until I'm so full that I can't sit up. (I used to do that alot). You have to remember to eat the right foods that burn quickly and easily. (Still trying to figure that one out for myself.);) You are doing a great job anyways with your goals. Have a great day. :D
 
Best of luck with your goals Jodee. It isn't easy but we can all do it!

Dinner ended up being a few mini-bagel pizzas. 4 equaled one bagel pizza so it wasn't too bad.

Tomorrow evening I leave for the CKI district board meeting and come back Sunday afternoon. I may have internet access there but I'll probably be too busy to update. I'll keep track though, don't worry!
 
This weekend was amazing! I love these things. I ate well too. Friday night I had a HUGE salad with nuts, cheese, and every veggie in the world. Saturday morning I had oatmeal. Lunch was veggie lasagna (very tasty and only 200 calories a serving, for pasta and cheese I think that is quite good!) Dinner wasn't wonderful, white rice and mashed potatoes. It is hard not eating meat at these things but it always works out. Yesterday morning/brunch we went to cracker barrel, I caved and had some hashbrown caserole but it was so good I didn't much care. For dinner I had a mini frozen pizza (150 calories) and salad and for a snack I had wheat thins.
Today was cheerios, wheat thins and I am working on what to have for lunch. Tonight is "pizza night" at Chris's house so I'll probably have salad again.

I missed you all!
 
Didn't have lunch :( I know it isn't good but sometimes that happens.

I am having a hard time sleeping at night but I'm not sure why. I haven't been exercising late in the afternoon or anything. No caffiene before bed either. I don't know if it is because I have a lot on my mind or what.

I'll be back tomorrow.
 
Kadie.... sometimes taking diet pills keep me awake, If your taking some sometimes that will do it. I have the same problem and sometimes I think my brain just fights shutting down...........
 
I don't keep diet pills in my house any more, because I have had past issues with them. I'm not sure what it is. I think I am just anxious about college and everything else that is going on in my life. I'm not sure though. We'll see if it passes.
 
Hey kadie... thanks for your helpful words on my diary! Just thought I'd stop by and say good luck to you!! You look like you're doing well and on your way to your ultimate goal!!
 
Thanks :)
I'm down another pound today. Tomorrow I am starting a new work out and I'll add in some pilates.

Cheerios
wheat thins
skim cheese stick
pototoes, corn on the cob, and 1/2 biscuit
 
cheerios for breakfast
cheese stick and wheat thins for snack
wheat tortilla with cheese, lettuce, and salsa for lunch
salad and 1 slice cheese pizza for dinner

I didn't have time to exercise this morning but I did go shopping which supposed burns a few calories. I will exercise tonight though!

Has anyone tried the Carmen Electra dance videos? I have heard good things but figured I would ask.
 
It has been about a week since I did my morning bike ride and it feels so good to be back into routine. I only rode about 6 miles but I'll work out more later. I also did a little yoga afterwards.

I had "lowfat" hashbrown caserole. I know it really isn't that good but I love it so I figured I would try the recipe and see how it is. It is 250 calories a serving but for potatoes and cheese I can't complain.

I think I am going to have veggie chicken with salad for lunch.
100 calorie pack something for snack and I'm not sure about dinner yet.
 
Hey Kadie!! Good job getting back on the bike... 6 miles...WOW!

I have no idea what hashbrown caserole is but you made me want some...mmmm potatoes and cheese. yum!
 
Saw a movie tonight, Lady in the Water. It was really good but I really like M. Night so that may be why. Dinner was out to eat, grilled cheese and a few fries.

I went like 100 calories over today... oops!
 
I have to share a little secret. My whole life I have been fascinated with acting and making movies. I love everything about it, from behind the scenes stuff to the actual performace. When I was younger I did a lot of theaters but haven't in awhile. My dream would be to be in movies... I think sometimes in the back of my mind I want to lose weight because then I might be able to find an agent and get me some jobs!!

Okay, I just wanted to share.
