Keep me motivated!

I most certainly have those days... usually I forcefeed myself... however, I'm not sure that's what your supposed to do.

Hopfully it'll pass soon and you'll be able to go back to normal:)
 
Well My appetite is still not really present! I just don't feel like eating! it kinda sucks!! Anyways...

Today is Weigh in Day Dun dun dun...... and I now weigh...285 :) That's good!
So since i've started I have lost 15lbs! I guess thats good..this is day 35, yeah I counted :rolleyes: And I feel I am making good progress. I can jog a lot further now and I don't feel like I'm going to die when I stop. That is an awesome feeling! Also I am down 1 size! I had to buy some(just a few) new clothes for our vacation, and I noticed that my old size was just tooo Big YAY! So I am pleased! My Husband is Very pleased! He hates how I tell that what he is eating is SoooOOoO Bad for him. He can do without that! LOL. I am in a good mood today! But I am still not hungry! I guess I better go eat! What am I going to eat you ask?? OH well let me tell you....
Oatmeal/w splenda(1 packet) and cinnamon made with fat free milk, not water..yuck
And that's it!
Has anyone tried those health smart blue bunny fudge pops!! OMG they are so good and big and only 50 cals, no fat, 3 gms of sugar some sodium of course...but seriously they are so so good! And they get ride of that chocolate craving I get and Ice cream craving I get too! They also have vanilla fudge pops, and thos are 60 cals! WOW! and they are big pops, not thoses dinky ones. Anyways..try em'!
 
WTG!!! 15 pounds in 35 days is friggin awesome!

Last night my boyfriend wanted donuts and I told him about the discussion we were having in Kimberly's diary (BikiniBound) he didn't get the donuts LOL!!
As a byproduct of me losing weight my boyfriend has lost 20 pounds without even trying... men are so unfair!!1

Keep up the great work
You're going to be looking amazing in no time:hug2:
 
Thanks Jenna!

I have to work extra hard now becasue I ate some bad stuff yesterday, but I was still in my calorie range. Yay, this is actually a little...Just a tiny little bit..easier than I thought it would be! I am now jogging very slowly very far!(for me) and I felt so great this morning that i wanted to just wanted to keep jogging, but i was tired, lol, anyways, i am almost excited for my walk/jog tomorrow! I'm shocked to even be saying that!
I can't think of anything but my vacation! I am so excited and I want it to hurry up and get here!! Hurry hurry hurry!
Hope everyone has a great day!:)
 
I don't really live that close its a 4 hour drive for us but it is so worth it to get the exercise and still have a little bit of fun at the same time. We also try not to eat much at the park. We take snacks for my son who's 3 and then we eat like once at the park usually lunch and then we get something outside of the park as its usually cheaper and healthier that way. We also go because the daily price is 78 dollars for the 2 parks we buy the annual passes which in the beginning seems like a lot cause they are 350 dollars but we can go 365 days a year if we wanted to and it pretty much pays for itself after going two or 3 times in one year. the annual passes also include free parking so we don't have to pay 10 to 12 dollars a day for parking. or that or we get a hotel close by the park entrance and walk to the park and then back each night and sometimes for naps for my little one but he loves it. Hope you have a great time there its a blast usually
 
Okay so, How is everyone? i am doin fine! Still the same! Walking every morning at 530 am. This week has kinda sucked though. I usually don't count what the scale says until monday BUT I DO weigh in everyday! and I haven't lost anything this week?!?!?! Maybe it's PMS? I don't know, but it's a bit frustrating! I was hoping to lose some more before my trip. OH Well. I still feel great though. I do feel stronger and I can do things now without getting out of breath! YAY :) Maybe I should work out more and that would help me lose more? Or maybe i need more vegetables, NO I DO NEED more vegetables, not maybe!! I just am not into the vegetables right now, UGH!!
 
I'm sorry you've been feeling down! You being less out of breath and stronger is progress... you may have even lost inches. That damn scale is soo horrible... I hate them... they are just plain mean and frustrating:mad:

As for veggies and exercise... more of either can't hurt too much... espcially veggies. You've been doign so great starting out on your exercise... if you feel you can do more do more... if not status quo is fine for now.

::HUGS::
 
Hey Im just droppin in - I love your screen name and totally love your diary name - so I thought instead of scanning over it I would stop by and tell ya tha tI love your names...Excellent job on the 15 lbs so far...
 
Thanks guys for the kind very kind words :)


today was weigh in day, duhn duhn duhn.....

Weight is now= 283

Yayayaya, another two pounds! I actually think it could even be less than that because It my favorite time of the month, and I might be retaining water, hahaha well I hope I am, lol, and I could be weighing less if I wasn't! ya know? ya think? maybe?

today I went joggin and walking hahaha, it has been really nice lately. except now school is back in session, and the friggin' track team is out running when I am, omg I feel so self concious around those kids, they are so young and FAST! I hate mondays..lol!
But, that creepy guy was there again and today he started talking to me again, UGH, and he said..lol...."so um can we be "friends"...."do you want to have lunch"...I said well i have my kids with me, so if you want to go to a playland, and he said...."well how can we be "freinds" then...I said WE CAN"T....he says..."can I give you my number" I said WHY? I said no and he was still talking as I walked away! hahahaha it was horrible:mad:
So maybe now he will leave me alone since i don't want to be "friends" lol! Sometimes I see him and he just Stares which is really uncomfortable, and the past two days, i think he watched me run /walk the whole time, so that he could time it perfectly to "run" into me?!??!
Creep-O

anyways, i haven't been doing to well today, i have been so busy cleaning that i didn't eat, I ate breakfast and that was it, it is now 3:30 so it was 200 pm and I grabbed.....1 slice of pizza, I was starving, bad choice I know! then i ate a light yogurt, and my calories are still low! I hate when i don't eat right!! I don't really have anything in the fridge either, becasue we are leaving the day after tomorrow so i don't want to buy anything so it can spoil while we are gone1 ya know, it's a bit frustrating. I am very excited!! yaya we will be leaving in two days..on wednesday morning after I exercise:jump: :jump: :jump: :jump:
 
Congrats on another 2 pounds down:jump:

As for that guy... creepy is the only word that comes to mind... just be careful... it sucks that you have to watch for him now... but he's just creepy!!!
 
Okay so I'm back from my vacation!! I am exhausted! I didn't do well at all. Now I have to get back on the wagon and it seems to be more difficult than I had expected! Tomorrow I will try to get up and go walking! UGH, but I already feel i don't want to! I beleieve I gained some weight back, UGH again. i'm not sure how much becasue i don't care to know really. I am just dissapointed. It was all the good good food and drinks and Ice cream omg, yeah I indulgerd more than I should have. It was so much fun though, so much Fun!!!
Well i hope to eating right and exercising soon! Probably not today though, I am feeling weaK!
 
So here it it tuesday and no I haven't started walking or exercising or eating right at all!!! I just don't feel like it! I feel like laying around and eating something fatty!! I have to lose weight though. I bought some clothes in a size smaller, they are brand new, so I have to get into those or I will have wasted money I don't have!!! This is very very difficult!! I don't have anything in the fridge I still haven't gone grocery shopping, so i have been eating out since last tuesday!! OMG, that's a lot of eating out, and I haven't been making good choices at all when I do eat out!!! Somethings gotta happen here!!
 
Hey:hug2:

Welcome back! I'm glad you had a great time on your vacation. Gettign back on the wagon can be hard but the fact that you havn't gone grocery shopping leaves a great opportunity for you to stock your house full of healthy foods. Its a good start. Once your eating healthy again you may feel like you want to exercise again. That junk food is probably making you feel soo blah... thus not wanting to get up early and walk.

Its great to have you back:hug2: :hug2:
 
okay so here it is september and I STILL haven't started back with my walking routine!! yeah yeah, it's just that i've gotten back in the lazy routine and not wanting to get up at 5:30 anymore..after sleeping in for like two weeks! it's hard1 I keep telling myself I'm going to start tomorrow, everyday I say that, and it just never seems to happen, But i can fell it still picking an chewing away at me, saying start exercising!!! So it will happen. Good news is that I've only gained back like 2 pounds..lol..i know thats not really good news, but I actually thought I gained back more than that so when i weighed in I was happily surprised, so I fell okay, like I don't have to start all the way from scratch, which I've done so many times!
Okay so lets hope for tomorrow!! LOL, it will be a better day :)
 
Well long time no see or exercise!
No I still haven't gotten the ball rolling. I do think I have gained some weight back. At least not all of it. I don't know I have stayed far away from the scale latley..:(
I want to start exercising and eating healthy again before I gain it all back, I don't want to feel like I am starting from square one even thoughI kinda do already.
I have to now condition myself again. I have to take baby steps into the eating right..grrrr...and also the exercise. I have been out of the loop now for over a month doing absolutly nothing. I feel shittaY! Sooooo. I have decided today is the day. No I am not going all out, but I am going to start cutting shit out again and moving my ass a little,lol. Now the weather is gettting better so I can't use the it's to hot excuse anymore...well I can for a little longer but still it is much better!
So my breakfast was good, I had some egg whites and and english muffin whole grain and some coffee! I am going to have to kick the cafeine again, that is gonna be a bitch! Plus I have been pigging out, so it is starting from square one again with my eating!! I am not looking forward to my mood swings. Yes I get mood swings(at first) when I don't get my fix(food) it is crazy!!!


AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH


So wish me luck people and send me your good healthy vibes...:)

Welcome Back!

Yes baby steps are going to be necessary... but you can do it! You showed that by doing it before. Sometimes we have to take one step back to take two steps forward.

We're here for you :hug2:
 
haha Thanks Jenna!
yeah very tiny steps..lol!
Well i didn't go walking today but I did do some exercises, like crunches and squats and dancing, I sure was sweating a lot...:) It felt sooo good!
food wise I am not doing the best, but that is due to lack of good fod choices I have available here right now. So tomorrow i will be going grocery shopping, so I will have a chance to stock up on the goods..:)
I did better today than I have in a while, drinking lots of water so, we will see where I am tomorrow.

But later might be another story, I will probably be drinking...YIKES:eek:

So all the more reson for me to get up tomorrow and work it off!!!
 
Hi There Beautiful! I wanted to stop in and say HI and good luck on your weight loss this up coming week. I have a few suggestions for you on snacks, or at least some that work for me, and I don't feel like I'm cheating. I buy these Baked Veggie thins, and they are awesome! I also buy these little packets of Chex mix that come in a carmel and chocolate flavor, they are only 100 calories for the package, so I keep them as snacks at work. I also love Freezer pops when I want something real sweet at night, they are only 15 calories each and I usually have 2-3 at a time so I feel like I'm getting more even though I'm not adding up many calories. I try and drink as much water after 11:00 am that I can, and I have wiped out soda all together, I might have one every now and then if I eat out or something, but I don't miss them at all. Hmmmm let me see what else to eat, Smart Ones are good for lunches and usually under 450 calories for each, and they are tasty and filling. I can usually get them for under $2.00 each when on sale. I'll try to think of some more that might help, but hopefully that will get you started. I wish you the best of success, I know you can do it, don't give up!!!
Kim
 
Thank you Miss lady...:) I know convenience is sooo good when trying to watch what you eat. becasue not everyday do I want to slice and dice my stuff..lol..sometimes I just want to sit down and munch, and those 100 cal packs are the best. I never tried veggie thins, but i will look for them. I try and stay away from frozen meals as much as possible, I always feel cheated when i eat those, they are small and seem to have a lot of stuff(cals salt etc) for how small it is..:( i do eat them still, like when I don't feel like making my lunch from scrath! haha. thank you for the tips Miss.



Today is better..yay! I didn't go walking..:( no I haven't started back up yet, but I am getting there! I am hoping maybe tomorrow or the next day. Anyways, this morning we went to the Park. We haven't been to the park in months, because it is blazing hot here in AZ..ugh. So it is starting to cool down slightly. And this morning was cloudy and very cool, BEAUTIFUL! So we went, we were all excited to. While the kids played with thier dad I went for a short walk around the park, tried to go as quick as I could, which wasn't very fast because I hate walking on grass, I always feel like I am going to break my ankle!
Anyways, after that, Dave and I played frisbee. it was so much fun. I know it doesn't seem like it could be a good workout, but it was. All the running after it...which I think my husband was doing on purpose,lol, I don't know if it was for my benifit or his viewing pleasure..LOL! But I was saweatin' it was super fun. For once the kids were telling US it was time to leave! hahaaha.
