Wow, I can't wait to get to my goal. Once I get there I'm going to do this...or that. Those are the thoughts that constantly travel through my mind. Never before have I felt so "out of body." This at 156, isn't me.

I'm KattWoman a 23y/o married with one beautiful daughter who turns 2 October 28th. My goal 147 by October 26th, my ultimate goal of 120 by my birthday January 17th. There, I've put it in writing for all to see so I have to accomplish this. I will accomplish this and I will maintain this.

I'm doing this for myself first but for my daughter second. I want her to know that her mother was always against the grain. Never will I let someone else shape my future. They tell me that I will be fat b/c my mother is, that I will be a teen mother, b/c my mother was or that I will have have diabetes b/c the rest of my family does. I am my own woman and I am incharge of MY life.

That's the mother I want my daughter to know and remember. This is me, I am KattWoman, hear me ROAR!! :flame:

Good luck! What is your plan of attack??
 
Feeling a little Blue

Thanks for the support. I'm working out 6 days a week doing cardio and weights and also *trying to maintain a 1250 cal a day diet.

We'll see how that 1250 cal a day goes.

Today kinda sucked though...I guess it's just one of those glitches in the system where I feel like I'm never going to succede at my goal. I hate being at my current weight. I hate feeling like I should just give up. I won't give up though, b/c I know when i look back I'll be that much more satisfied when I conquer myself doubts.

Oh Well...another day a new calorie bank...
 
Re-Juvied and On a Mission...

Ya know...I'm very happy that I keep this little calorie log with me. I looked back and saw that 1200 cals were way too low. Before I moved to Florida I was loosing weight normally and I was a happy eater. I consumed approx 1500-1800 cals a day and lost weight at a snails pace. Anywho losing is far better than gaining. I like that back then I was a happier jollier eater. Now I find that I'm a bitter bitch for lack of better terms. :p

My moment of stupidity is over...I'll go back to normal. Exercising 5-6 days a week and eating normally.

AAHHH how the pressure has been released. My goal of 120 by 17 Jan is still the same but the October goal of 137 is a little too high. I think 147 is a better and more realistic target.

I know I can do this.

Ready Break! :p

(Thanks everyone for those stickies...those prompted me to go back and see what was working for me.) :D
 
Its so great that you have a time frame with your goals. I have yet to set that up. I know I want to be at goal next May... but I would like to be at goal before then. Nine months is a little long to loose 35lbs.

Good for you for exercising 5-6 times a week. Someday...
 
I figure if I have a timeframe it will force me to eat right and exercise and make every calorie count! Oh and i only work out so much b/c I dont' have a lunch buddy so I use that 1.5 hours to sweat to the oldies!




Today was far better than yesterday. Yesterday i ate cookies all moring b/c I had to drive from florida to New Orleans and back. :doh:

I did the Precor at the gym and it read that i burned 310 calories in 30 minutes. Anywho, today was an awesome day! Will update more in the AM...I'm so :sleeping:

Kattwoman...kepp chuggin the water!!!
 
Man I was sooo tired last night lol I don't even remember typing that!

Yesterday (7 Sep 07) was an awesome day. I met my calorie goals and didn't go over and I worked out. I've decided to start keeping my stats here on the first post so that I can find any update them easily.

Today is going well. I even had McDonalds! (Oh Boy!) LMAO I had the Honey mustard snackwrap and an apple pie! DH, DD, the dogs and I all went for a job this AM. I ate well today. Lol

So far I am on the right track with my October 26 goal.

KattWoman.
 
Im glad you are on track!! Weekends can be a struggle for me... but it sounds like you are doing great!!

Have a great day.
 
Oh man I wne MIA for a while. I've been tired. Pooped...actually I'm tired now but alas I am here.
Okay lets see...I ate around 15-1800 cals a day and I'mm losing at a steady pace. I'll post my stats Monday as that's my official weigh day. I've been doing cardio 6 days a week now and I can really say that I am back on track.

Before I came here, I was "Mzz Fitness" then the vaction time kicked in and I ate everthing in site. This place is great though. It gives me somewhere to be accountable. I know I'll make both goals. I actually think at this rate, I'll be 120 before Jan 17.
Go me Go Me!

Kattwoman.
 
Well lets see here...nothing new really. Just trying to make it. 5lbs to go until I am at the weight I was before I moved. I'm going to drink some Chinese Tea tonight. I was drinking that every night before and I guess it seemed to work. Don't ask what's in it, b/c I don't know what it says. I got it from a friend at work a while back.

Anywho...off to Updatemy stats.
 
Hiya,

I just wanted to stop to a) wish you all the best in your endeavour and b) offer a little piece of advice.

I noticed that losing weight for someone you love rather than yourself can sometimes be a lot easier. For example, when I first went on a diet, I did so for my girlfriend, because I honestly thought - and still do - that a stunning woman like her deserves someone a bit more fit than me. So, whenever I got any cravings for unhealthy food, I just reminded myself that I'm doing it for the woman I love, and that always helped me resist any junk food temptation.

In your case, if you are ever feeling lazy and are contemplating staying at home rather than going to exercise, remind yourself that you're doing it for your daughter as well as yourself. Somehow, this kind of thinking has always worked for me :)

All the best in your effort!

George
 
Thanks George! At times it feels like I will never make my goal but I keep doing what I'm going b/c I have to be a great role model for her. I don't want her to look at TV and want to be like the Paris Hilton or Lindsey Lohan of her time. I want her to want to be fit, healthy and happy like her Mommy.

Your post helped me re-adjust my sights on my goals! Thanks again!
 
Oh man. I found some Hershey's Chocolate sticks that are only 60 cals a serving. Boy how they've been helping through this "trying" time. PMS sucks, I've been eating bad but not going over my cals by too much.

I'll post more later
 
It always important to have the chocolate! We eat the dryers slow churned ice cream. I love the fudge tracks! I think its 120-130 calories for 1/2 cup.
 
Today is going okay, I guess. PMS really has me wanting things I shouldn't want and the monkey on my back is whispering nasty nothings in my ear about skipping the gym. I wont skip the gym as it's my favorite time of the work day. LoL

Slimfast is great and I never realized how valuable it was to start my mornings off to a better start than BK. I ran out and this AM I had a sausage biscuit with grape jelly. In hindsight i could have gone to the gas station and picked up a cold Slim fast. Now I know.

They day isn't shot. If I keep my cals in check for the rest of the day I won't go over. I plan on having a shake for lunch from Smoothie King post workout. UUUMMMM

I want to make my goal of 120 by Jan...I will make my goal of 120 by Jan.

:beerchug:
 
How was your weekend? You haven't posted in a few days and I wanted to make sure you were hanging in there!

Let us know how you are doing! :)
 
Oh man it's been a while since I've posted. I've been working my butt off. Going to the gym 5 days and w/o at home for one.

My current weight is 149! One week to go until my goal. :eek2:

I'm very very close.
 
Well...I've finally made my way back to this site with basically a lot of ups and downs to report.

The lowest I got was 142 which was recently but I got a bit of food posioning at Applebee's and everything sort fo spiralled out of control. I started off once i got to Florida by not lifting weights and just strictly doing cardio for about 5 days a week at 20mins.

Doing this I got down to 142...but never got any lower. Just recently I started the "body for life" challenge and I now weigh 153. I've been lifting 3x a week cardio 5 days a week and 2 of those days doing cardio twice a day. My HR monitor tells me I'm burning about 700-800 cals on my weight/cardio sessions and about 500-600 cals on my double cardio days.

I've been counting cals somewhat and seem to be eating about 1500-1800 cals during the week and I've not been counting on the weekends.

My goal is still the same...120 as the ultimate goal. 130 anything being my first goal. Even 139 would give me a glimmer of hope as I've not been able to make it there.

My daughter is 2y7ms and I've not made my goals. I am a little discouraged and although i love lifting weights I feel that may be why i am not at my goal weight. Maybe it would be beneficial to lose the weight and then tone up. I could do an hour of cardio a day, 5 days a week and possibly light weights as oppose to the heavy weights that I am doing now. :argue:

I'm sick of going through this. I was fine until I got pregnant. Why the hell does this have to be so damn hard? I've been working out at least 5 days a weeks since I've given birth. I only eat lean turkey, chicken and fish. The occasional pizza or chicken wings but overall I eat pretty healthy.

WTF gives??:boxing:


:cry: All I can do is keep trying, giving up will not get me results, I'm just so sick of not seeing the results I should be seeing with the amount of effort that I'm putting towards this....

:icon_bs:

Workout and eat right my ass...


So here I am. Wooptefrikkindo :willy_nilly:
 
:ack2:
