Lukewarm's Weight Loss Diary

Whiley Thank you miss ;) I hope you were able to resist temptation tonight at your curry dinner. That would be insanely difficult! Keep it up :)

Lena I agre, it's a lovely drained feeling. I actually went swimming in the gulf today, it was super warm and nice. I was inspired by these two girls that were lying near me, they ran in and I decided to as well ;)

Kim Aw I wish you could come to the beach with me! It's just not as fun when you're by yourself :( I tried to nap, but I couldn't. That's how bored I was.

Cym Thanks girl ;) I hope you are having a lovely day as well, are you near a beach at all?

Meow Ouch be careful on the cruise! I used SPF 50 today and yesterday and I swear I haven't gotten any color at all!

Mishi I think it's cool we're both on a calorie bounce. Thank you :) I know, I have been getting slightly discouraged but then I think of where I COULD be if I keep it up in say...6 months-1 year. That keeps me motivated for sure.

Sunny I'm very jealous, I've never seen your coastline, I can't wait to see the craggy cliffs! Romantic and beautiful :sigh: someday ;)

Val lol right? Our bodies are fickle and distrusting. They need to chill a bit, and let go of the extra baggage ya know ;)

Jeremy Hey man! Thanks! Where in Fla are ya?
 
Val I'm hitting the beach tomorrow too! I love sun,water,sand. I know I said it 8000 times but really, seeing you and your man makes me happy, just too cute.

So I have GREAT news! I was able to coerce my sister into playing tennis tonight. I'm so excited! I feel like I'm in high school again, it's pathetic, I'm so excited to get out there and drill. I hope you all have a BEAUTIFUL night! ;) And my sis loves to play by the way, she tries to pass it off like she's cool, and 'sure I'll play' but I know she loves it and is just as addicted as I am. She turns 16 on the 16th, and I turn 22 on the 21st. I'm working on her present a little bit each night, she's gonna be surprised ;) I don't know if the reason we get along so well is because she's mature, or I'm immature. Probably a little of both. That's a nice way to be though in my opinion! Alright, really now, GOOD NIGHT!
 
Awww, Sara are you ever a nice older sister! That's great you're playing tennis with your sis and buying her little presents for her birthday already.

Mr. New York Tennis-Man is a bit obsessive I'm afraid...he emailed me 3 times today to tell me how much he adores me. Never a good thing. I LOVE what you wrote in Blancita's diary about being willing to go with a serial killer to the U.S Open. LOL You nut.

So you already knew of this Paolo Nutini...wow, he's something else.
Have a great Friday!
P.S. Good on ya, Mate is Australian.
 
That's awesome on the tennis. I know this lady who has really awesome arms, and I complemented her on them once and she said she owes them to lots of tennis... :) It's kind of been hard to stay on track food wise these days. I dunno what it is, I am just craving everything it seems like. I just try to keep eating the food I spend my money on at the grocery store, it's what I should do... Have a great night!

Hi Sara! Stopping to say hi and check in here with ya...I read back a couple of pages and it looks like you are doing GOOD! :) ahhhh...loved the beach pics! The water is so beautiful. I always feel better with some color.

Good to hear you and sister got to play some tennis together! :)

Enjoy your weekend! Take care!
 
Anna You're so nice, haha I'm not that great of a sister, we fight once a day practically. But aside from that we get along wonderfully haha. lol ohh Aussie, I see! Ohh..I'm sorry he's obsessive, but luckily I know you can totally handle that. So I'm not worried too much, you can fend him off...you're hilarious :)

Sam Ohh thanks! I used to have pretty arms, I think she's right, tennis really does help out! I have this newspaper clipping from high school that I've kept just because I'm disgustingly vain and it made my muscles look nice in the picture:rotflmao: I'm finding it really hard to keep on track as well man, but we can do it!!!

Bethann Thanks! I agree too by the way, I love having some color, this is the first time I've had a tan in over a year, I did a double take this morning in the mirror:rotflmao: It scared me at first. There's nothing like going to bed without a tan and waking up with one. Yeah she told me not to bother asking today because she doesn't want to. I don't understand how it's possible. Thanks though, I hope you have a beautiful weekend as well!

So I really really want to play tennis today. I want to do something other than weights that involves exercise. But all the things I want to do involve other people so nevermind! I even wish I had a dog to walk with. I might just go hit at the courts in the racquetball enclosures. Anyways I hope you all have a beautiful day :)

Your right Sara, working out with someone is much more fun!! And well tennis is easier when you have someone hitting the ball back to you. LOL LOL If I was there I would play with you everyday! I love tennis, but I'm not very good at it. It's a great workout, so your getting some great benefits out of it. And Ooohhhh La-La, Sara has a tan, ooooh baby!! I need to go buy me some of that rub on stuff, it's lotion that gives you a little sun kissed look. If the sun doesn't stay out for a few days here, I won't have a choice, my legs have never been so white during July in a LONG TIME, it's terrible, I hate wearing shorts because of it. And that sucks, because I love shorts! Oh well enough of my grumbling. Have a great rest of your day, I hope you find someone to workout with. Hey, get to the gym and make some friends, that's what I did, since my girlfriend who joined the gym in January has been flaking out on me lately, I'm not waiting around for her, I'm on a mission. THE MISSION TO LOSE WEIGHT!!! OH YEAH!! Chow babes!
Kim
 
Kim lol I know! I don't mind hitting around on the backboard sometimes because it does help me improve, but you're right, it's not as fun haha. I didn't go today though, I'm about to go do my weights. I'm looking forward to it only because I get to have my shake after haha, which reminds me of the raspberry ice cream that I'm craving. I tried self-tanner a few years ago and it was disatrous, but I know that there are lots of brands now that have beautiful results! Better yet, I just hope you get some sun soon ;)

So yeah I'm about to go lift, and then I have spinning in the morning. I joined the Christmas challenge and now I'm really excited to try and lose my weight in the next 5 months. The majority of it I mean. So let's see, if I lost 6 lbs./month for the next 5 months, I could potentially weigh 131 by Christmastime. That's so incredibly exciting to me. Good night everyone.

Edit: I just realized that my number one New Years' resolution each year could be accomplished before I even get there, when in fact I've only ever completed one NY's resolution. I have quit smoking. I must confess though that I fear I'm going to smoke when I go home. All of my friends still smoke and it's such heaven having a smoke with them, as in it's so natural that I'm going to feel incredibly deprived if I don't. I'm not planning not to, but I'm not planning on smoking either, I'm just going to see what happens.

Wow, your food looks yummmmeeee. I miss eggs, gonna have some real soon. And I bought berries and bananas for some shakes.
How great to have a goal for 131 by Christmas.
Enjoy your spinning class tomorrow!
 
Good morning!!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend and maybe get some tennis in! I might do likewise. Tennis sounds really good right now:)
It is astounding that 131 can be your weight by Christmas!! I think about the same thing... though my goal is a bit higher!! You have a great program and I can't wait to see your success!!! woooo hooooo!
 
Anna Thanks I love my smoothies!

Mishi I know! I can't stop wishing it was 5 mos. down the road already

Okay my internet is crap today and I'm probably going to lose this before I get to post so I hope you all had a lovely day! I finished painting my sis's bday present and went spinning so I'm good, hope everyone else stayed on track as well.

Hi sweetheart, just checking up on you. We're so close right now, experiencing the same weather and all :). I am noting lots of chubby women in Miami, so not so intimidating at all. Its such a pretty city and so clean and modern looking. I only wish I could live in my own condo. Anyway, keep up the good work love :).
 
Blancita Hey I know, it's weird to think that you're in Fla at the moment! Miami is beautiful...but I'm surprised to hear that there might be 4 people in that city that are overweight. :groan: Thanks, but I have a feeling I'm not going to keep up the good work very long because I'm so craving terrible junk :rotflmao: I'm trying to stay strong. I'm posting a picture of my grandmother's apple pie so that you guys can see what I'm craving. And yes, that is all sugar.
 
Whiley Aw thanks, but trust me, that pie is nowhere near me at the moment, if it were, we'd not be discussing my resistance! We'd be discussing how I should burn off the 2000 cal slice I inhaled :) That pic is from Christmas 2005.
 
Yes, that pie certainly looks good. My sugary death as a child was in the form of my mom's plum cake. The crust was made with lard and butter. Only about 1,000 calories per slice, but SOOOOOO good!

Aww thank you, you'll be happy to note that things have drastically improved between us and I'm happy again!

So glad you get along with your lil sister, and it may not have much to do with maturity, hell I have plenty of immature friends who aren't much younger than me!!

PLEASE don't smoke!!!!!!!:eek: I smoked from age 14 to 19 and never took another drag since. Heh heh but I've puffed some cigars sense :doh: Yes, the Xmas Challenge!! Best wishes to you, looking forward to you reaching your goal!

BTW are you enjoying weights yet?
 
Yah, it's hard to not smoke when you're around people who do. Especially when I'm drinking booze. I rarely drink booze, but I will be in a couple weeks when on holiday. Cartons of red wine...and one of my brother smokes. This damn oral fixation. Maybe I was a koala bear in a past life...all they do is chew eucalyptus all day and sleep. Hmmm, that might be weird if I try that while on holiday...
 
Ahhh Sara, those pies look soooooo GOOD! :jump: I make my own home made pies for the Holiday's and I just love them, usually a Pumpkin for Scott and an Apple for Jim my sons. I haven't been craving to much on the sweet side lately, except for some Chocolate chip cookie dough I made yesterday for my husband, I baked a few batches and left the rest for him to eat. LOL LOL it's good!! :) I have a feeling you will be down in the 130's by Christmas, no doubt with the way your working out lately. DAMN!! your doing such a great job, we don't have a spinning class at my gym, maybe I should ask them to add one, that sounds like a lot of fun!! It's using the stationary bike right???
