Thought I'd stop by and say hi. Great job on the progress and I'm sure you'll get down to 120 in no time. That's my goal, but I haven't been in the 120s since highschool and that was like almost 20 years ago! haha We'll see what happens.

The support and knowledge here on the forum is astounding. Everyone is willing to help and extremely encouraging. We're all here to help, so if you need any advice, just ask!

Also I just wanted to say that being so young and wanting to have a more healthy lifestyle is so refreshing to see. Good for you and keep it up! your body will thank you in 20 years!
 
your pictures are great!

i think you already look great, so good luck with all of your hard work! :)

and you and bf are cute! :D
 
thanks mn and daise...

Well, today I am going to hit the gym for the first time in like a week. Ugh...how pathetic. I am going to do the stairmaster for 20 and then the elipticals for 30 and before cardio I am going to do legs for about 30. I need to work HARD, so Im trying to get in the right mind frame right now. :)
 
Woohoo!! I did so well at the gym today. I did legs for about 20 minutes, then I did stairmaster for, and then I did HIIT on the treadmill for 20. When I was done, I was down to 130.2, which is amazing considering I havent worked out in a week, and I didn't exactly eat well. I needed this kind of day to get me back on track because I was definitely headed in the wrong direction. My goal is to get down to 130 when I weigh-in at the gym, and 128 when I weigh-out by Sunday.
 
today was a good workout day, and all i have to say is it's about frickin time. I have been sucking it up the past couple of weeks fo sho. I need at least 3 really good consecutive days to get a routine going again.

But man am I stuffed. I had 2 chicken salad sandwiches for dinner. It was homemade and delicious, so I absolutely couldn't resist.

On Saturday, my high school soccer coach came to one of my club team games, and he told my mom that I looked really good, both my appearance and my performance, which made me so happy. That was the whole reason why I started this whole thing, so that I could impress my coaches and teammates this summer.
 
I'm skipping school today...I know, I am bad. haha But I have some major tests that I am not ready for, so I needed to stay home.

Im not sure whether or not I can get to the gym today because I have stuff going on for my new job later and then soccer practice. The good thing is that the stuff for my new job involves carrrying things and moving around things because the fitness center is a brandnew building. So I'll get a good workout from that, and then soccer practice will give me another workout.
 
Haven't written in a while, and that is 100% because, quite honestly, there has been nothing postive to write on. I was down to 130 just 2 weeks ago, and I weighed in at 135.4 today. I almost feel like crying. It took me nearly a month to lose those 5 pounds, and I just threw it all away. The worst part is, now that I am in this habit of bad eating and little exercise, I am finding it very difficult to get back into the swing of things. Nothing seems to motivate me. :mad:

I need help. What do I do? Why am I being so stubborn? Why do I find excuses? Why can't I just suck it up? UGGGGH.
 
Don't beat yourself up! We all go through the same phases. I tend to work my butt off, see the results and then slack off. Lately though, I'm realizing that it's a lifetime commitment and even when I see results, I have to keep up my habits to keep seeing them. You just have to motivate yourself to get back to the gym. You did it before, you can most definitely do it again! Just hang in there!
