Love my hubby...but would love to turn a head or two again....

Had a really good day food wise 1307 calories and burned 510 doing my new DVD ...I have bad arthritis in my knees and was able to do every thing but the standard jumping jacks...I was able to do a modified version...besides that I kept up and felt like I got a good work out...so I'll definitely be adding this DVD to my work out rotation.

Still 191.2 ..but I am sure I will hit my goal of 189 by the 31st...I just feel it...lol..so does my legs...my arms...my belly...haha.
 
Have you noticed your arthritis getting any better, or at least less painful or restrictive, since you have lost weight?

I have a cousin with arthritis, she was only 10 or 11 when she was diagnosed, but my Aunt is going about it in the wrong way... AKA my cousin is now severely overweight, which I know just aggravates the pain and effects of it.

Props to you for being so motivated even though it's super painful! You have lost so much weight. That is really impressive.
 
I was 14 when I was diagnosed.....old broken knee when I was 8 didn't heal properly....I had to quit cheerleading because of it...but I always found ways around it....like I became a majorette in the band.
I have definitely noticed a major change especially going up and down stairs....I still have a hard time with certain motions ...like lunges and any type of jumping...but I just keep on moving and modify when I can.....hopefully the next ....20 POUNDS gone will help even more.
 
It must have been awful to have arthritis as a child, and not be able to run around doing somersaults and stuff with your friends :(

:) I love that quote too!

Glad your arms and legs and belly are feeling it :D
 
"I remember back in the day when I was "hot" and it wasn't because I was fat and it was summer" ~Me

Oh now that is hilarious!

You're doing great in your journey! Good job on the walking workout in spite of your knee discomfort.
Thanks...I just adjust to what feels good...I'm so use to it. I still try running every once and awhile and it still hurts..I always think the doctors are liars..lol.

I so wanted to be athletic growing up...I tried ...but by time I hit 14 the pain wasn't worth it......It does come in handy ..I now know when a bad storm is approaching...lmao..see gotta find the positives!! :):)

:waving: Glad to make you ladies giggle :) We put ourselves in this situation might as well laugh at it as we try to change it!!:hurray::hurray:
 
:) Just want to let you know that reading your diary always makes me smile. You're such a tough cookie, being able to do this (and that biggest loser workout!) while you have pain. What a trooper!
 
I'm here ..still 191.2 ish......ive been 191.8 this week ...191.0....191.4....ugh....it looks like.I'm.not gonna make 189 this month....I'm so pissed ...and all I am doing is analyzing everything I did wrong this month...I should be proud of 4.5 pounds...but its hard.

Having some teenage drama....been crazy busy...hopefully I can get caught up on everyones diary tonight :)
 
I know you want things to go faster but at least appreciate that the numbers are going down! You're doing well, so just keep on focusing and the results will continue to come in. :)
 
I read your post and know exaaaaaaaaactly how you feel.... except my kids are a little younger....12, 8 and 5..... but dang, I have been going in circles for the last 5 years.... whining...time to change!!
 
YES you should be proud of 4.5! But yeah, it's tough to keep looking at 'the big picture' all the time. You'll get there, lovely - and we'll all be here cheering you on!
 
:beating::beating::beating: Thanks for the lift in my mood everyone..I'm over my pouting session...it is what it is...and 4 pounds is 4 gone forever..so thats that!!

So if you didn't know or didn't remember TEENAGERS suck...o yes they do...my youngest always seems to get sucked into crappy situations...and it makes me want to pull every single one of my hairs out!!!

So it is Facebook drama...that he truly had nothing to do with ...I am so not that "not my kid" Mom!!!..but he physically was with his dad at the time of drama...to make a long story short...someone created a fake Facebook page for another boy and then posted rude comments on a girls page. Now everyone thinks it was him and he is getting slack from it. I feel so bad for him...I just want to kick whoever's did do it... big ole BUTT!!!!...I know thats wrong...but I am pissed for him. Ugh!!

So on with me...Tete...1725 in food calories and burned a total of 675 calories with 2 mile walk and Zumba...we tried a new gym/class tonight and it was so so bad...I usually burn around 800 for my walk up and back and class..It was such a bad class...if I invest an hour...I want my butt kicked...not slightly warmed!! O well any work out is better than no work out...I will not be going back!! Ill stick to my crazy slave drive of a instructor..she is nuts..but O so good!!
 
Omg...I literally only have a minute.....I am.walking out the door....but guess what...I officially lost 30 pounds!! It feels great emotionally and physically...I love you all for the rockin support!!!!

Sitting in the out patient surgery center waiting for a dear friend ...and it just makes me think...she is thin and tall... I am short and fluffy..LOL ...we are a similar age...and she is getting a heart cath done right now....just makes ya think...sometimes if it really is more genetics than any thing...my own gram was over weight her whole life and lived to be 98. Now I hate being over weight and I am dedicated to this process... I feel better than I ever have with these 30 pounds gone and. want the next 30 gone...but it does make you think tho...o my see what sitting in a hospital for 3 hours has done to me.....Lmao
