I miss my girlfriends! :'(



Awh tete im sorry to hear that your friends are not being nice to you. I know your too nice to say it, so i will say it... THEY ARE SO SO JEALOUS OF YOU THAT THEY CAN'T LOOK OR TALK TO YOU. Tete you look so fricken stunning, and you've accomplished such a huge goal:) I would be jealous of you if you were my friend but i would not be mean to you for it. Maybe they aren't true friends? Anyway you never know, tomorrow it could all be fixed.


You are looking beautiful girly, so chin up!!:)xx
 
Hello,

Just wanted to say how great you look! It's truly inspiring to me! Congratulations and good luck on making it to your goal weight!
 
A[quote name="Sparked" url="/t/49700/love-my-hubby-but-would-love-to-turn-a-head-or-two-again/540#post_825804"]Hey Tete!
Omg - you look smokin hot!!! Wow! My jaw dropped!! I remember reading how you said wanted to lose weight because you missed being cute - but damn, you outdid that, you're crazy gorgeous!!!!! And look so young - your husband is gonna die over that pic! Love it!![/quote]

THANKS SPARKED!!! You are beyond sweet...you made me smile so big today when I read your post!! I do think he will like it....he is such a sweetheart...He has loved me every size from tiny to titanic size to trying to find something in between....haha...he is a keeper
 
A:( well I haven't had a bad food day in forever!! 4 pieces of pan pizza and bag of Pretzel M&M's!! ....SO I BASICALLY SUCKED TODAY!! ugh off to the gym to negate some of the damage!! :(
 
Ah who cares, a bad food day every now and then is heaven. BUT ONLY NOW AND THEN. You've lost so much weight i hate for you to gain any of it back after all you hard work.


I know tomorrow will be a great day so look forward to that:)

AI use to enjoy and plan my bad food days...this one kinda just sneaked up on me!! I feel so tired after eating that junk!! It is just one day I know.....I won't let it get me down to much! I promise.
 
Tete, you look so marvelous! It really goes without saying!

As for the slight slip up, hey, it happens to all of us! I've had my fair share (just recently in fact)!


You're not letting it slow you down and it shows. Continuing on is the best and most efficient way of counter-acting any bad days, and that's exactly what you're doing!

No worries! You're doing awesome, you look amazing, and you're right on track to accomplishing everything you've set out to do from the beginning! :hurray:
 
ASo I think I had a "catty" FB post about me today....two so called FB friends who never comment on my progress ...posted a Jennifer Hudson weight watchers link. I swear I don't overdose on my weight loss or working out on my page....I thought about posting something on my status about catty women but ....I didn't ...I am an adult and I have this wondeful place as support ...I don't need to lower myself to be like them.

But on my internet search for a great comeback I found this...I know all my forum family would love it :)

Hello, do you know me? If you don't, you should. I'm a pound of fat,

And I'm the HAPPIEST pound of fat that you would ever want to meet.

Want to know why? It's because no one ever wants to lose me;

I'm ONLY ONE POUND, just a pound!

Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds, or fifteen pounds, but never only one.

So I just stick around and happily keep you fat. Then I add to myself, ever so slyly,

so that you never seem to notice it.

That is, until I've grown to ten, twenty, thirty or even more pounds in weight.

Yes, it's fun being ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT, left to do as I please.

So, when you weigh in, keep right on saying, "Oh, I only lost one pound."

For you see, if you do this, you'll encourage others to keep me around

because they'll think I'm not worth losing.

And, I love being around you -your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips

and every part of you.

Happy Days!!! After all, I'm ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT!!!

Thanks Frogged!! you so right one day is all it is...I had a real good day today as far as eating...I feel better about yesterday now. Thanks for all the kind works you sweet little guy! :) :)
 
AJust got back from the hairdresser.....I went blonde blonde for summer...what do ya think!...I think it turned out good...I have to pick up the boys at school in an hour...we will see what my toughest critics have to say!!

Have a great Friday my forum family...Me and my goddaughter are having a girls movie nite...I am super excited!! We are going to see MIRROR MIRROR...I never get to see chick flicks in the theater!! I WILL NOT HAVE POPCORN!! I WILL NOT HAVE POPCORN!!! I am taking my own carrot sticks and water!!
 
AI love your hair! I really want to go curly, but its too short now.

Glad your getting a bit of girly time after being surrounded by male-ness for so long :)

I remember after I got my cheeks done. Nick was quite upset saying "My Ruth has gone", he hated that I had changed.... Maybe with weightloss its kinda the same thing, people see you as being someone different when your really not. I don't know anyone who has lost a dramatic amount of weight. I know that I haven't thought someone has changed because they gained weight though. Saying all that though, I think that eve if someones weight loss does throw you, if your a decent person you will not let it show, and you will at least have the decency to congratulate them. Its plain rude just ignoring it. My bestie completely ignored my weight loss the first time round (from a large 16 to an 8-10) which upset me, specially as she was always on at me to treat myself. But this time around she has redeemed herself and mentioned it :D

Maybe you can have a chat with the bitchy people, and somewhere in there drop in "I'm so happy I have become more energetic and healthy, are you happy for me?" Of course they will have no choice but to say they are happy for you, which could make them reconsider their bitchiness. Of course, you shouldn't have to do that. But still.

I like that "pound of fat" thingy. It very true. We are all like "Just a pound? Pah, that's nothing" But it is something. lots of little somethings which make a big something.
 
AThanks Rainbow...I have naturally curly hair.....I hate it and have fought it for years...as I get older, I have learned to just deal with it and not fight it as much. I still do straighten it on occasion...but most times I am a curly q ...lol. :)

I would so love to say that to some of them!! that would be funny!! I won't but I would love it!! :) My smart hubby said the other day when I was venting to him..."you can't control how others treat you babe..you can just control you!".....men are so grounded!! BORING!! haha.


So I have noticed a pattern....when ever I meet a mini goal...or feel good about myself again....I kinda slack for awhile. I noticed it at ..195'ish..185ish... and now these past two weeks I feel the same....anyone else feel like that?? I only got to the gym 3 times this week....and I ate at maintenance 3 times. SOME ONE SLAP ME!! I have a BIGGER goal to reach!!!

Ok off to the gym to make it an 4 times this week...I am gonna kick my own butt!!
 
WOAH thats some head of hair you have!!;) I LOVE THE NEW DO;) So stunning on you. I have natually curly thick hair too, like ITS BEYOOOOOOND THICK. SO fricken huge, when i was younger i hated it so much and spend many times crying my lil heart and soul out and now i like it alot more. People pay a fortune everyday to get hair like ours so woop woop!! You look gorgeous though and i hope you know it too chick:)



Totally agree with everything Ruth said!

Those girls sound really mean though, even if i wasn't maaad about someone and they lost a HUUGE amount of weight i would still compliment them. God people can be so heartless. Don't mind them though, because you don't need them to tell you, you look great because its so obvious;) Also your husband...what a smart man, love what he said, its so true you can't control those bitches but you can control how you act.


I can totally relate to you, whenever i reach a mini goal i lose my motivation aswel, but we have keep going strong, from now oooooooon:)


Best of luck darling xx
 
Love the blond Tete! Super pretty! Oy, I also have naturally curly hair, but I straighten mine constantly because when I don't, well, it looks like someone electrocuted a poodle :ack2: Terrible.


Sorry that those girls are not being very good friends to you right now. I have found in all my relationships with women that there is always a bit of competition, but you can tell how strong the friendship is by how well the two of you are able to overcome it. I don't think we can help feeling competitive sometimes, it's just our insecurities working against us. I feel sorry for those girls because they are feeling so insecure and so bad about themselves, that they are unable to see past their jealousy when they see you looking phenomenal like you are. So try not to take it too hard, it's not them not liking you, it's them not liking themselves. So, you don't need their negative energy when you've got so many cheerleaders in your life!


Good luck at the gym, keep that motivation! It is the best comeback for those women's immature actions anyway!! ;)
 
ATete, I've just been reading the last two pages of your diary and I've got the biggest grin on my face!!! Your photos are incredible - you are HOT DIGGEDY! Your legs (I always look at the legs!) are SOOOO hot and you have the greatest boobs ever! haha. I bet your hubby had a melt-down over that piccie ;)

Oh my god, you are going to the movies with carrot sticks and water. You are some kind of super hero!! Sounds like such a lovely girly night out. :)

Love your work, you gorgeous thing.
 
AThanks my lovely ladies!! :) You girls are so right...some women still act like catty school girls even in adulthood......just motivation to get even healthier!!

Hubby does enjoy the "girls"...I actually did go down from a 42 DD to a 36 D....lol.... Don't think he minds to much!! as far as my legs...they still look super fat to me...well from the knee up at least!

ONE YEAR IN......A LIFE TIME TO GO....


So is it funny that my get "healthy" anniversary date is APRIL FOOLS?

I personally think its perfect! I mean really ....aren't we all just big jokes when it comes to losing weight!!

It takes most of us years and years of failure and trying numerous gimmick and ridiculous scheme's...and you all know what ends up working for 99% of us...it's eat less...move more!!

So I will laugh my way to health and happiness and celebrate that I am no longer subject to every loss weight fast -n-easy infomercial and product...I will giggle happily at the treadmill....I will chuckle at the veggies and lean protein that adorn my plate.

So take this APRILS FOOL'S ...to no longer be the fool!! Find the laughter my friends...find the laughter!!
:party:

Congrats again on your anniversary! Here's to another year filled with just as much success, if not more! :beerchug: (<- that'd be water, not alcohol :p)
 
AThanks so much Frogged!! You always put a smile on my face and a little blush in my cheeks..haha ! Thanks for the kind words!! They mean the world to me!!! :D

But of course, Tete!


I hope you can find a wonderful way to celebrate today!
