Mishi's adventures!

Goodafternoon Mish,
Wow girl "161"and seeing 150's very soon that is very
awesome!!I bet your excited I am for ya!!!
Did you take pics with you wearing your new skirt??I wore a skirt around January 1st time in like 15-20 years lol. Have fun withyour vaction,my family is going to disneyland the 1st week of JUNE nad we xcouldn't afford it this year so we'll be pouting at home but we bought KINGS ISLAND passes tho they have a water park and a amusement park with over 15 roller coasters so we'll still have fun.

I need to take notes from your diary with your menues and exersicing and stick to it.I know I am holding off until after the party which is Saturday but I am cutting out sweets and restart my walking again.
Hope you have a gr8 day and graduation sounded emotional good for you for being a gr8 teacher,Tammy:hug2:
 
Dear Mishi, I have seen you around but never stopped by. Tonight I was admiring your avatar while in Anna2Skinny's diary and noticed you are so close to your goal having lost not 41 pounds but more like 80? Your high weight was 240 and now you're 160. Well that is incredible. My high weight was 220 but that was five years ago. Been at 200 for five years and then this effort began just January.

Reading your diary about your calories made me realize tonight that going to bed a little hungry is going to have to be the story of my life from now on. Being careful about food from now on. The good thing is that now I do care. Been through a rough patch lately but now I care enough to do something about it. I'm so pleased for you. Please send some of your success vibes my way.
 
Good Morning!

I will Happy!!!! You have done well also. You have lost 40lbs and that is no small feat!!! There is a scene in Titanic where Rose's mom says something about how a lady always leaves the table a little bit hungry and that is how they keep their figure. I am hungry through out the day and I have a really hard time telling the difference between actual hunger and emotional hunger. I am mostly an emotional hunger person. But if I set out exactly what I want to eat and what time then I know if I am hungry right after I have just had something that it is emotional. Still feels like the same thing though:confused: I am glad you are taking care of yourself and you will get to where you want to be. Just keep your focus!! Food is something we will have to be conscence about forever if we want to keep the weight off. I keep wondering when I can relax but I think it will always be something that I will have to think about because everytime I relax with food I go overboard. Keeping track of what you eat and exercise really are the only way to do this.
Today's weigh day went well:) I am glad for the 161. Wish it was lower but don't we all lol. Going to my workout class today with my friend. I am excited as I have been a gym slacker for the week and I like this class.
TGIF!!! I am so tired recently. I think the stress of work is getting to me. I wake up exhausted and drag through my day. I can't wait until this is over!!!! So I am going to be easy on myself if I don't get to the gym for one more week. Don't want to get sucked under the treadmill when I pass out;) lol
Nia- I didn't take pics with my new skirt but I will try this weekend:) I need to get that posting pics down in my diary lol. How fun!! A water park. We have no big plans except to go camping sometime this summer and my boyfriend has a work conference in Chicago in July. I am hoping to go with him:) I can't wait!! Take care this weekend and have fun eating bad but eat in moderation!!!!! You'll do great!!
Have a wonderful weekend all!!
 
Howdy mish,
Wow camping I love to camp my brother has a really nice camper and we usually go to this big lake that has a swimming pool mini golf hiking in the woods lots of stuff to do usually I don't last more than 2-3 days do to KRAZY kids...and now I have a 13 month old so maybe 1-2 days now lol.
You are doing so great and I may go back and do some rereading in here to help kick start me again.I know after todays over I will be back on track I will however try to have some self control but it's hard being gone that long and having all my fave foods there.
We are suppose to stay and play texas holdem after the party and that means no getting home until 2-4 AM then my brother N laws graduation party tomorrow at the park grilling out = healthier eating....lol Well have a fun weekend and congrats on "161!!tAMMY:jump: :hug2:
 
I just wanted to say thank you for posting your pictures (I saw them in the before/after section the other day) and you look amazing. You should be so proud of yourself, and that you're a real source of inspiration for me and others. You're stunning! It's funny because you were beautiful even while heavier, but you have completely transformed yourself and that's incredible.....and I know what you mean about never relaxing regarding the food intake. I will probably be calorie counting (whether it becomes a subconscious thing or not) forever. I've already caught myself mentally adding up caloric intake and such recently. Thanks again Mishi. :)
 
Maintain dangit!!!

Awww thank you Luke:) You are so sweet:)
Good morning all! I have done decently this weekend but I have noticed something recently. I am not sure what happened but my calories are higher than they used to be. Instead of around 1300 I am having days closer to 1500-1600. I am thinking this is the reason I have stayed in the 160's. Also I haven't been able to exercise as much as I have been wanting to. This is the last week of school and there is finals and lots of stress. Today is the last day of normal classes. I bought cake for the kids to say good bye. I have been at this job for 7 years and it is crazy that I won't be here next year!! I am missing my students!! I just had a tiny piece of cake and have otherwise not touched it. I packed a very good salad for today which should keep me satisfied until I get home *fingers crossed*. So I am in maintainance phase I think. My cals are higher. I am not losing. This whole month I have stayed in the low 160's. It's nice to know I can maintian when the time comes but I will need to kick it up after school ends. I will have one week next Monday to kick booty and work to get under 160. I can do it!! Being out of school and not stressed wilil really make the difference! I woke up every 5 minutes last night stressing over my classroom and what I will need to get done this week. Woke up exhausted!!! I had hopes of trying to get up and run this morning but I couldn't wake up that early after a night of no sleep:( So I will let myself off the hook for the week. It's time to go to work and get these kids out of here, my classroom packed and moved and my sanity back;) lol.
Hope you all have a wonderful week!!
 
Oh boy - Im sorry abt saying goodbye to your kids and the stress of not being there after 7 years - why is it that you are leaving ???

Ive been in maintance mood for a looong time myself abt like 2 months so somethigns gotta give - I have slowed downed my exercise and highered my cals a bit...so ya lol...

Anyway I wanted to drop in and say Hi - I see ya around and you seem cool - so I wanted to start supporting you girl - Tammy really likes you and that means alot to me - I love Tammy she is a great gal...

I will be back :):):)

 
Hey Mishi,
Being able to maintain is a HUGE component to losing this weight and KEEPING it off!!

Good for you for being able to!
 
Howdy Mish,
Awwww I hate goodbyes and especially when it comes to kids and a job you so love!!You are doing so awesome maintaining is very hard and you know what to do to stay at the weight you feel compfy with when you reach your goal's.Goodluck with packing ...Hope you have a gr8 day Tammy
 
please let the b**ch die!!

lol Ok so I don't need to be so drastic but here is the deal: I am an emo person. I can't get through any sentence without crying and my fuse is psycho short. I snap at everyone and am totally wierd in social situations. This is not how I normally am. Snappy every once and awhile but I have been so increadably emotional for the last year or so. I have had issues with my BC. I have switched it up many times and can't find one that I am happy with. Today I started my 3rd consecutive week of a period. I am not a happy camper to say the least!!! I am not sure what is going on and I made an appointment with my doctor. We are going to try a different type of BC with a lower dosage hormone and I am so hoping I will return to normal!! It's crazy how something so small can affect you. I remember being normal... a long time ago! lol I just want to not cry at everything and not be so pissy all the time. If it isn't the BC I am going to be a bit worried. So finals start today for the students. I am cleaning and packing my room. I may even get to go to the gym today!! I am not betting on it but I am going to try. Still need to grade the finals and get other grades in to finish everything up! So much to do!
Thanks tammy!! I hope you have a good day too!
Thanks M2M! I am glad to be able to relax a bit:) Just for one more week then it's on!!!
cinderelly- thank you for the support!!! Tammy is a great girl:) One of the several people on here that are wonderful to be going through all this with!!! I am leaving my school for a new school that I have been invited to. It's a charter school and is higher pay, less students, more technology and a wonderful principal! I am excited but sad to leave the kids that I adore here. It is time for a change however!
HOpe you all have a wonderful day!!! I have 4 more left!!
 
When I was taking BC, I felt like a nutball. Seriously, I thought I was losing my mind. I quit thankfully and came back to normal. It was so bad that my ex would look at my pack to see what color I was on. Funny how I was always a week before the sugar ones when I acted like a psycho. BC sucks, but a necessity for some.

I'm sure once finals are over, you will get the ball rollin again. You're going to hit the 150s in no time!! Do it girlfriend!!!
 
Awwwww Mish & Cerella I feel the love and I feel the same way
about you 2,you gals have been here for me and continue to show support
and I can talk to about other things other thna dieting which is a biggie to
lol. You gal's are awesome.....Tammy
Hmmmm **wonder's if I am emo to**I do what you describe alot??
 
Hump day

So feels like a hump day. If I can just get past this day then only two more days of stress and finishing up grades!! I broke down several times yesterday getting all emo about leaving my wonderful co-workers and my wonderful students. I know I say that every post but y'all will just have to bear with me for a few more days!!! I have been trying to eat well but I struggle everyday. I have done well but keeping my cravings at bay has been really hard. I just went crazy last weekend and bringing that back down is difficult. The scale is very firmly set at 161 lbs. It is a nice feeling to be able to maintain and know that when I get to that point I will be able to do it. I only have 16 pounds until my goal. I am so anxious to get to it. It has been hard to get to workout this week. When I get home I am so exhausted that I just fall onto the couch and go to bed! Today I will give the gym another shot. Can't wait until the water aerobics on Monday! I got my new BC yesterday but can't start it until Sunday. I really hope this helps with the mood swings. MJ- I do feel crazy!! I can't stop taking them because I would be having babies constantly lol. I am just not ready to have another one right now! A few more years though:D I am excited!
Tammy- I am convinced that everyone is emo at one point or another... I am thinking you don't need the black hair, goth clothes, and the slit wrists that emos are supposed have. Psycho is an emotion too right;) lol.
Hope you all have a great Wednesday!! yay for memorial day! My pool will open at my apts. You can see my focus is on the end of school and swimming! I can't wait:D
 
Oh Mishi, I wasn't aware you felt like this! You poor thing, 3 weeks of a period. Um sure you're feeling psycho, I would too! I genuinely hope things get under control for you, but I'm sorry that you have to leave your kids :hug2: The new job sounds wonderful, and less stressful. Hope you have a good day :)
 
I've always wondering how teachers felt after they lose their students each year. I can still remember my favorite instructors and how they would always pay me special attention. I was always the student that came to office hours, payed attention most of the time, and was a natural at picking up the material with little effort.

That all changed when I got into a university, I actually had to work hard to get A's. I really miss my teachers. I always wondered if they are able to forget us since they were constantly getting new students every year.

I am en emotional person, and I would get so attached. Teachers are great!! Hang in there, this too shall pass!
 
Howdy Mish,
WOW 2 more days of school shoot me now lol!!
Yeah I am definaley EMO,I used to cut as teenager and up until last year I am parting with my black t-shirts and pants(except a few cuite ones) and the crazy hair colors I still wear black eye shadow tho lol.I was a very troubled teen and adult up until my 1st child was born that streightend me out alot! I used to smoke mary jane like there was no tomorrow it's amazing how having a child totally changes your way of life I have quit everything besides the eating poorly which I am working on.
161 is a nice weight to maintain you work so hard girlie and it definatley paid off!! I would love water arobics maybe you can share what you do in the pool and I can try them in my sis N law pool when she gets it up in running in June!Hope you have a great day,Tammy
 
Would have eaten the kitchen table too!!!

OMG guys. Yesterday my mind was taken over with a craving for something. I was hungry and I didn't know for what but I felt that if I could eat a certain food I would feel satisfied. So I came home ravenous and had a bowl of cereal for a quick fix.... well after that I went to sit and read but the craving came again... so I had another bowl... and another. I put them into fitday and saw a 1338 total for cals. Ok not bad but I would not eat anything for the rest of the night. I was going to a graduation party but I wasn't too worried. If I just had a little it wouldn't kill me and that family always makes very healthy stuff. So I went to the party and couldn't help myself. This family is from Iraq and their mom makes the best rice and meatballs so I had some. I was very good in that I didn't scarf a piece of this fantastic pecan pie... I just had a bite with my plate of beans, rice, and 3 meatballs. Not terribly overboard but calories would definatly go up. When I got home I cracked. I went in the kitchen and had a slice of bread with 1tbspn of peanut butter and some chocolate shavings with a glass of soy milk. That wasn't enough. I then had 4 chocolate chips and then a cup and a half of tortilla chips with a few table spoons of salsa. I totally folded and never did find that magical food that satisfied me. 2400 calories later I was full and uncomfortable and still craving something. I can only figure out I was stress eating. These last days of school are so stressful and normally I am taking it out on everyone but apparently I have internalized this stress and am fighting stress cravings:boxing: . Ha ha just had to say that so I could used the boxer guys. lol I folded yesterday but I will stay strong for the rest of the week. My weight didn't change much... just up a pound but it will go back down. I just am pushing until the end. Almost there!
Thank you lukewarm I am hoping the new stuff works!
MJ- I do get attached. I remember almost every kid I have had.. if not by name then face and sometimes even by their art work. I have even had siblings come through my class and have gotten to know the whole family. I will miss the spirit of my school where whole families have gone to EHS and are loyal to the school. I will miss the wonderful teachers I teach with. I drove by the school and burst out crying last night. It's going to be a hard couple of days:(
Nia- wow I used to cut as a teen too. I was depressed and dealing with my parents divorce and it wasn't really suicide related (though I thought about it when I was really down) but it was comforting in some wierd way. I always wore black shirts and jeans (as I look at myself this morning I am still in a black shirt and jeans lol). College and my freedom straightened me out. My friend who I used to smoke weed with ended up addicted to crack and dancing at one of the nudy bars in town. That was enough to get me to stop smoking which is where I figured it all started for her. My little one finished off the job. It is wonderful that children have that affect... for some at least.
Crazy...
Y'all have a good day and Friday (and a holiday weekend) is only a day away:)
 
YAY for long holiday weekends... :) it's he longest stretch between the last long weekend and now and I need it so badly :)

Hope yoou have a fabbbbbbolussss thursday and have something fun planned for the long weekend :D
 
Good day Mish,
I am sorry you had a bad day with food and craving's.
The good thing is you are back on track now unlike me it took over 10 day's to let ago of the bad eating habbit's again,it so much harder when ypu fal;l off track for so long.Your strong and even with the 2400 calories I am sure you still maintained,because you kick butt when it comes to exersiceing.Well I hope you have a nice day and weekend,Tammy
 
Hello!!! Your post made me hungry reading about all the bits you dipped into here and there. lol Oh, how I have been there. You don't have to be perfect all the time, just most of the time. And you are doing great at the most of the time part.

Have a great day!!!
