Mic's "One Step at a Time" Journal

I took all my measurements when I first started this journey a few months ago. I wrote them done and, of course, lost them, like everything else.

But I'm excited for when I find them someday when I'm thin and fit. :D Then I can compare. How exciting!
 
Mmkay... Gator and I have an awesome 12 week race with eachother for weight loss!

April 16th is our check in! :D

I'm going to dominate.
 
Well... I don't want to freak out or get too excited but...

I MADE IT INTO "ONEDERLAND" TODAY!!

How fricken awesome! :D I treated myself to some starbucks this morning. :D
 
Gahhhhh!! Another engagement!! I'm so incredibly happy for everyone I know falling in love. But man does it make me think about my life...

So, this is the 4th family member of mine to get engaged within 2 months, and there were 2 more before that last year. Outside of my family this is the 10 engagement within this holiday season!

=( I'm kinda sad. But happy!! =) But sad... lol
 
Hey, I was probabaly loosing around 2lb a week average at the start - now I don't loose so much but I don't have as much to loose so I guess it even it out.

I'm really struggeling with the last few pounds at the moment.

You are doing so well! Keep it up =)
 
Thanks Trus! :)

I bet the last ones are definately the toughest! I know that if you've come this far, you can push through it to the end!

I'm going at about the same rate as you 2-3 lbs a week. I'm feelin' really good about it. I was never into weighing myself on a regular basis, but now it's a part of the challenge I'm in. It's kinda nice to see results on the scale but I'm trying to not get hung up on the numbers I see. It only makes me think that if I could keep this momentum then I will be at my goal in no time!! I have to keep in mind that it's not always the same results each week and your body adapts and changes.

We'll see... it's a long process and there's a lot to learn. Not only about a different lifestyle but a lot to learn about myself.

You're a great inspiration to me!
 
Woohoo!! This weight loss is coming right along! :D I'm hoping it keeps on coming off with all my consistent hard work!

Besides the 6 week New Year's Challenge, I'm also doing another challenge at work. Who ever wins gets some CASH MAHONIES! :D I wanna win. I'm in 2nd as of today. We'll see. I've been lifting more weights than usual. It's not helping on the scale but it's helping with my body. The only bad thing is that we are only counting lbs lost for the challenge, not a %.

It's almost half over... 5 more weeks to go! If I keep at this pace I'll be so proud of mysefl even if I don't win 1st!
 
hehe i was reading your diary!! congrats on onederland!!! that is sooo amazing i cant wait to get there... im hoping in the next week or soo =D talk to you soon =P
 
lol, hey you! It seems like whenever I go to comment a post, you're there! :D hahaha, I love it. This site is really great and it's so awesome to read all the different stories.

Today, I'm trying to keep my carb craving under wraps. I swear I just want a bagel, pretzel, bread sticks... or something bad!

But i'm not going to do it!
 
omgosh i was just thinking the same of you =P i keep seeing posts from you everywhere lol!
bleh i was totally craving a bagel with cream cheese this morning... thank gosh i dont have any bagels xD
 
haha. Yeah it's too bad I work somewhere that I have access to all that bad stuff, especially the bagels.

I'm thinkin' I'll just get a coffee and make that my trade off. Then it's almost like i'm making a deal with myself and making myself feel better about myself. :p

LOL
 
Well this weekend I had sooo much crap going on!

I had to help my boyfriend move into his own place, went to a birthday party and drank long islands, and then for the superbowl we went to BDubs. Talk about fatty breakfasts, pizza, and wings. lol. It wasn't my best effort but I keep telling myself that I have to expect that I can't always be perfect. At least I worked out and still didn't get too out of control! lol. I managed to barely squeeze out a 2 lbs loss which makes me feel a little better considering my goal is at 1.5.

So there, talk about rationalizing with myself. :p

I'm a little worried my emotions will start to trick my head now that I have to put my doggie down. I'm going to try to stay strong through these tough times!

Hope everyone out there is doing well!
 
awww =T sorry about your puppy...
yeah this weekend was pretty bleh for me as well... i havent worked out... i have been soooo sick D:
congrats on the 2 lbs =D

hahaha... yeah I would. 2 hours is a long time. But that's really awesome you did 8 miles of walking and jogging. Insane! I am done at 3 =/ lol
