Lucy's Diary

I usually have the whole sore-boobage feeling the week before but usually the cravings hit the day before and the first day or two into it... So that was a new experience!! Lol lucky me...

Anyway just stopped to say- today was a perfect day!! WOOOOOO!!!! Oh, and todays gym session was beyond painful... can't lift my arms above my shoulders and my fingers are shaking all over the place typing right now lol. Pain pain pain!!!!

So 2 out of 4 so far- and 3 to go!!!! I SO have this!!!!
 
Keep it going beautiful! You're doing so well :D You'll meet your goal for sure :D Love those gym sessions where you ache afterwards! xxx
 
Thanks Chubbygirl and Sunflower!!! I'm pretty sure I should be able to get halfway 2 weeks from next weigh in- pretty sure I've lost most of that huge gain already... just water and TOM rearing it's ugly head lol.

Woke up feeling awesome today!!! Which is not such good news for me lol, it means I'm going to hobble around like a cripple tomorrow (for some reason exercise usually takes an extra day to catch up to me) and of course I have gym again tomorrow. Eee!!!...but really, I love it! :biggrinjester:
And today is Friday!!! Woohoo!!! I do have to work tomorrow, but that's OK... I have Sun and Mon off, hooray for public holidays!!! Ahh I'm a disgusting ball of positivity today, I think I may make people vomit this early in the morning... I love it when you get into that excited-about-weight mood!!

You are eating so well! Well done. Good mix of carbs, protein and fats! Healthy Healthy Healthy!

Hope your weekend is as great as your day!
 
I love the exercise highs too! I just feel so good after a great workout - the kind where even your undies are soaked afterwards! I thought last weekend was a long weekend for you - my mistake - I guess I put you in the US group and should have realized. I love long weekends but they usually throw me off course - do your best to stick with it! I know you always make me proud so I'm not worried. Your early week weigh-ins must be helping the weekend snacks too because your weekend have been so good lately.
Have a great long weekend Luz! Enjoy it!
 
Morning all- it's been a few days!!!

Well- Friday I was really bad... went to the movies in the evening with a group of friends, a lot of popcorn, maltesers, icecream was eaten... eeep! Also only managed a 30min walk because we went straight from work so I got a lift (it was very unplanned lol)
Saturday was actually a perfect day, had my 1000 cal deficit and did a very tough workout with my trainer.
And Sunday was... OK. I did a 30min jog in the morning (actually went to do an hour, but my legs were SO killer sore from the combination of Thurs and Sat workouts), then cleaned the house cuz my friend was coming to stay the night. Ate healthy all day but got the munchies in the evening, ended up eating a tablespoon of peanut butter, a handful of hazelnuts and a piece of homemade banana bread extra... ended on about a 500cal deficit, so not TOO bad.
Today is Monday, which is of course my weigh in day... If you can remember, last week I weighed in at an atrocious 68.9kg! Bleh! Weighed in this morning not knowing what to expect, last week really wasn't that good either... I think I just about broke even on my calories, and I still have TOM... but stepped on this morning to 67.2kg. So I was happy with that! Going to change my ticker... up... (no!) I reckon with a bit of hard work this week I can be back to what I was anyway. I'm planning to be at the halfway mark in 3 weeks- so the 28th of this month!

Hey there!
Aah, yeah, nights out with friends can be tough. But for the most part, I tend to think it's worth it, to have fun and not worry about being the only one not enjoying food. And it sounds like the rest of your weekend went super well, anyway!
Congrats on the weigh in. You're doing great! :D
 
I can't imagine having a perfect day on a Saturday - that is so awesome! The rest of your weekend looked good too. No crazy binges or anything so you did great in my eyes! Hope your week goes just as good!
 
Hey ladies- yea I guess overall the weekend wasn't too bad... but the week as a whole sucked lol.
Yesterday was a perfect day- so ready to have a big loss next week! Fair bit of drama happening though, I was trying to calm Wade down all morning because he had gone out the night before with a group of people and they all saw one of their mates get hit by a truck! He's alive -barely- but I mean that's going to mess you up a little! Wade also decided that he's over his job and is handing in his notice today! Cuz he's the manager he has to give a months notice... and I'm not staying there without him to protect me from the owner... so I have a month to find myself a new job!
His lease ran out a few weeks back too and he moved back in with his parents for a few months and they're driving him mental... So I told him we would do something completely random this weekend. Haha we are booked into a 5 start hotel on Sat night- going out for dinner, clubbing, going to watch girly movies and get our nails done at the hotel day spa... then brekki in the morning. I think hubby will be meeting us for brekki (he's ok with this of course- he knows Wade... and knows he's super gay lol) So yea I have interesting plans this weekend! Will definitely have photos to share from it I think!
Hm so other news- I only work 4 days this week! Hooray! But I'm in the kitchen today, BOO!!!
I've decided to change my getting to halfway reward... I'm getting a tattoo. I've picked one, it's going on my back, I'm excited :D Have wanted one for so long! So when I get to 65kg I'm booking in and going down south for it (using the tattooist my girlfriend aways uses, he does an awes job and he's pretty cheap)
Think that's about everything going on with me...! :D

Todays Plan

Exercise
1hr walk, 1hr group gym sesh with trainer
 
Ahh so today started off stressful straight away... I got into work and Wade burst into tears as soon as he saw me- his friend was put on life support last night. He still wants to resign too... I told him not to make any decisions while he's upset and wait another day- I think he's still going to do it. Poor poppet... I just can't believe so many things can happen to one person!
So I'll officially be job hunting again as of tonight... Woo... I swear I feel like I'm always hunting for a new job, it's never-ending! It's just hard cuz I don't know if I got into my course or not- won't know for about 6 weeks- so I don't know if I should be looking for full time or part time... Grrr frustrating!
Really looking forward to the gym tonight, the group sessions are always fun. Hopefully it'll pick me up a little! Hope everyone is having a good day!
 
Hi there! Read some of your journey so far, and I'm in!

I like the way you speak your thoughts.

Will pop in to see your updates!
 
Thanks for dropping by Ankebuzz!!

Oh dear... so today has gone from bad to worse... Wade's friend passed away. He found out while he was on his lunch break, and I just happened to be looking up when he ran out. I was working, and I looked at the owner and said I was going out to check on Wade cuz I thought he'd had bad news... she gave me this 'Don't you DARE' look. I gave it right back to her and walked out... sat out with Wade for about 30mins, then ran back in to grab him water and tissues. The owner didn't look at me... glared at me silently when I came back again, and I think was just silently angry at me for the rest of the afternoon until she knocked off. Boo to her!!
Wade still wants to resign... I'm stressing now that he may be depressed- he quit volleyball last week and he's been playing for like 8-9yrs and just randomly quit because a few people on his team pissed him off. Now he wants to resign his job, and just more shit keeps happening to him. It's starting to remind me so much of Jamie it's freaking me out... I KNOW I'm overthinking things, but I can't help it. I've given myself a headache... feel a bit sick too. Got to stop comparing situations!!! I really want to make this weekend awesome, get him a bit distracted... hopefully I can have a full on conversation with him as well and see where he's at.

So right now I'm sad... but I did stick to my food today... and I'm still going to the gym. Determined to make it through this week!
 
Aw Luz I'm sorry to hear you and your friend are going through so much. Really shows what a strong person you are holding it all together for both of you. I think Wade needs your strength and your friendship more than ever and it's so nice of you to plan a fun weekend for the two of you. I hope it all works out and he decides to stay at work for a while longer till you can find something else. Job hunting is the worst and I swear that's why I stay at my job - I'm too lazy to go through the whole process again.
Great work keeping the eating under control during all the stress and getting to the gym - I bet it felt great to destress there a little.
Take care and we are all here for you if you need us! :grouphug:
 
Thanks Lisa... certainly has been a drama filled few days. He's working with me all day today so hopefully I can cheer him up some.

So yesterday I busted out another perfect day! The group gym sesh ended up being just me and one other person, and I was a real downer too... Normally I'm really loud end excitable (just the way I am lol) But I was so distracted and tired. I got through it, and I'm glad I went instead of sitting at home over-analyzing everything. Don't start work till 10:30 today, but I don't have the ability to sleep in so thinking I might head to the gym soon-ish so I can chill out tonight.

Oh wow. Sorry to hear about your friend. That was really Good of you to walk out with him. Glad you gave the boss the GRRRRRR look ;)! Damn people, have no room for sympathy nor empathy for some people.

Really hope he gets back on the wagon of happiness again soon. :) With good people like you around, it makes it easier though!

Way to WORK out woman! I love it! :)
 
Thanks Alta!!!! I did what I said I would... Just got back from the gym, and now I feel a MILLION times better!!! My 30mins of running wasn't great, barely made it to 4.8kms... but I felt super strong on the bike- nearly did 16kms in 30mins on level 10 which is more than I've ever done so was proud of myself!!! Worked out to The Killers this morning :D

Have a great day all, I'm planning on having another perfect food day!!!
 
Morning people!

SO I survived yesterday at work- The owner just completely ignored me. She wasn't working yesterday, just hanging around... was so glad when she left. I was so tired yesterday when I got home, and had to go out grocery shopping... And then the day turned into a cheat day lol. Seriously, I ate SO much crap. Then this morning I decided to shock myself back into it and stepped on the scales... and I was 66.9kg :sifone:
Funny, I think that probably makes me want to be good more than if I'd had a really high number! I worked it out- if I have 4 more perfect days then weigh in on Monday- that's a 4000 calorie deficit so I'll lose just over another half kg. Hoooooooooooooo it's going to be a big loss week! I'm determined to keep it at just the one bad day. Don't have my PT session till 8pm tonight- that is going to suck a little. It means I'll be incredibly tired when I ge there and probably be up and hyper-ish till midnight afterwards. Ah, what can you do? I'm SO not missing it.
I've just been tired the past few days- I think it's more emotional exhaustion than anything else... I have Wade relying on me, and hubby as well... I think I've kind of always been the go-to person, but now I don't have the support that Jamie used to give (probably the only perfectly balanced give-and-take relationship I've ever had with anyone!) There's just a lot of things I can't talk about with other people... even my best girlfriend who was up on the weekend, I know she has a tendency to 'talk'. Blah. Going to get through this too, I know I will... Just have to find a new job (vomit) and get myself out of this rut I stuck myself in!
