LaLaLucky's Long-winded Diary

Sorry to hear you went through some rough days but there is no day like today to start heading towards new goals in life. I'm glad you are back to focusing on yourself. I completely understand about life getting in the way. Just do what you can when you can & always remember to breath. :)

Your pictures look great. I can't wait to see them when you get happy with you!
 
thanks for the support moongoddess, it's gonna take me a little while to focus on what i need to do, but just realizing i need to get back on the horse is a step in the right direction.
 
Well here's my biggest and best opportunity yet to lose weight, and with perfect timing for the weight-loss season: forced exercise. I don't have a choice but to walk for at least 2 hours everyday that i work now, more if i walk on the days that i'm off to meet my boyfriend at work to walk him home. My car was repossessed new year's eve, so i have no choice but to walk wherever i have to go. i'm being optimistic about it by thinking of all the weight i'm going to lose, but it still sucks major balls.

on the bright side, maybe this is what i needed. i'll lose weight from walking. i always have more confidence when i've lost weight, so maybe i'll be able to get a better job somewhere that pays more and gets more hours. if things go right, i can only go up from here. and i'll have more money not having to pay for gas, so that's good....
 
i would like to add (for my own information as well as anyone who might read this) that the walk is a little more than 5 miles one way, so every day that i walk i'm walking 10+ miles. yay me!:willy_nilly:
 
well... that is certainly a way to see the bright side in the situation. Stay positive. This walking is going to pay off. Good luck & I hope you have safe streets.
 
time for the violins. :nopity:

i am officially the worst weight loser ever. i have no will power. i can't keep myself motivated. if i start something new i don't do it until it's habit, i do it a couple of times and then quit. i bought resistance cords, a yoga dvd, and i still do nothing. i'm eating all the wrong foods and i know it. shame on me.

so here i am to try again. i haven't been on here in months. bad me, i know. but i'm really gonna try. i'm moving the bookmark from this page out of the miscellaneous file under my mail (which i hardly ever check) to the fun file under my myspace (which i check all the time, pointlessly cuz no one's ever doing anything.)

new goals: spend some time here ever day! follow with workout! stop eating crap!
 
i love my bf, he's so supportive! we're going to start a new diet together, a low-carb, high-protein diet. i can't wait to start! (yes, clearly i'm in a better mood than i was the other day...) i think i'll run and weigh myself... (yeah, i have clothes on, but i don't care, i'll weigh myself naked later :p)

*runs off*

*runs back*

eekies! now i'll *have* to weigh myself nakeys cuz i weighed in at 172.6 with 30% body fat. blegh! though to be honest i thought i'd weigh more, with all the crud i've been eating...
 
okies, so after i hopped out of the shower i went ahead and weighed myself naked.

168.6 lbs!
28.6% body fat!

:hurray:yay!!! and to celebrate i took a picture! (i'm surprised at how slim i seem, yay for my awesome hoodie, which hides my jiggly tummy. you can still see it a little in my neck)
 
eekies! so the diet starts TOMORROW!!! i tell ya, there's nothing like doing completely healthy shopping, and throwing out all the bad stuff. it was nuts. tonight's my last night to eat carbs and drink alcohol for two weeks, so tonight i'm gonna go crazy. (not too crazy with the alcohol, i do have to work tomorrow..)

so here goes nothin!
 
okay, it's the first day of the diet, and it's started out fine for the most part. the diet's started out great, the day - not so much lol. but that's not important.

today i'll be taking all my measurements and re-weigh myself. but that'll be later. until then, i'm pampering myself. yay pamper!
 
Hey hope the new plan works out for you. try to make changes that you'll keep for life rather than for a short time. good luck! hope you're having a good day. x
 
thanks angel!

okay, so i wasn't able to post my stats the other day. the internet wasn't working. bad internet. but i did write them down, so here they are! as of 7/13/08:

height: 5'9"
weight: 168.4 lbs
neck: 14"
wrist: 6"
chest: (under)34", (across)40"
waist: 32"
hips: 42"
stomach: 39"

since sunday (the day i started my diet) i've lost 3 lbs(ish). I'm now 165.8 lbs! :hurray::willy_nilly::jump::hurray: YAAAAYYY!!!!

to celebrate, i think i'm going to work out today! :D
 
this is more a note to myself as a reminder of what's happening right now:

god, or the internet, or whoever! doesn't want me on any other website than this one right now. i go to myspace and there's a page error. i go to facebook, same thing. wlf is the only place that'll load right now. i take the hint. i'm going to work out now.
 
ack! i had a great day yesterday, which means my diet had a bad day!:banghead:

it started out mostly okay. i only had a little slip-up at mcdonald's. i was a good girl, got a grilled chicken caesar salad. but instead of just getting water i got diet coke. fortunately i didn't drink it all. :ack2: blegh.

the rest of the day was okay until the bf and i went to a wine tasting. (technically i'm not supposed to have any alcohol until after the first two weeks. i'm just at the end of week one.) that part was okay, but then we went to starbucks. i'm hoping that part isn't too bad either, i had one of those new vivanno things or whatever they're called. i'm sure it was loaded with calories though.:eek: the bad part, the absolute horrible part, came after, when we went out to dinner. we had burgers, both of us. big, juicy, greasy burgers. and chips. and beer and smirnoff. ooohhhh we're going to be going through phase 1 of this diet for another week for that. :banghead:

so today i've been good all day... i still need to do some extra exercise. i need to do something to make up the fact that i messed up. eewy eewy eewy.
 
okay, the internet's been wonky lately, so now that it's okay i'll take a moment just to throw out there that the diet's still going good. progress slowed a little last week, the bf and i let more carbs slide in than what we should have, but i'm still losing weight, so i don't care. of course, i'm not saying, "oh what's a few more," i like the progress i've made so far. i updated my ticker yesterday, 163.6 is what i weighed in at! yee!! i was tempted to weigh again today, but i didn't. maybe tomorrow?
