Misty's Diary

HI Misty!!

Just browsed your thread. I love sushi and I also have a hard time, especially with the boats that sail past me. Pretty soon I've eaten half the oceans supply of fish! LOL JK!!

I know how hard temptation is. Good for you for staying in and staying in calorie safety. hehe
 
I did well in terms of exercise today but bad eating wise :( Not sure if I totally messed up what calories I burned through eating....oh well.

Areas that need major improvement: waist down! Tummy and Thighs basically.

I'm going to do some interview prep tonite.

Weight goal for next Wed is still 116 lbs. I'd be thrilled with a stable 117 lbs as well. I can doooo it!!!
 
I was going through the "Before, In Between, And After" pics on the forum yesterday- I have to say that that is the most interesting part of the forum for me! I find it motivating and people on there have done a great job!

Anyways, today my weight is not where it needs to be but I do feel a bit "tighter" than yesterday, which is good. I think I'm taking this weight-loss thing too seriously, as in I obsess and stress about it, leading me to emotional eating- when really I should try to enjoy it and take things as they come. Today I feel good and hopefully this feeling and enthusiasm lasts for the day!!

Btw love this new icon eventhough I ain't a spam lover :spam: lol
 
I know what you mean about taking it too seriously. It really does dominate sometimes! I found that when I finally cut myself some slack and just tried to do my best most of the time, that the weight began to go away.

How tall are you? Are you 118lbs right now? That seems so tiny, but I'm thinking perhaps you might be really petite?

I hope this week goes great for you! Try to make it fun, that way you don't get too discouraged. I know that is easier said that done though.

And thanks for coming by my thread! So many people don't bother and it's nice to get a nod back.:cheers2:

Hi MissJB,
I'd have been really happy at 118 lbs if I was taller! I am 4 ft 11 inches high and 24 years old- so I look bulky and must admit, I do have quite a bit of flab all over! The ideal weight range for someone my height and age should be between 98- low 100's in lbs. I hope this week goes well for you as well!!

Okay, so I'm trying to build consistency with exercise now that I am temporarily unemployed. Really doesn't help sitting at home and having the kitchen a few feet away! I am slowly trying to ward myself from all the fatty goodies. Last year took a lot of will power and this time it will take just as much if not more. Will post tomorrow's progress.
 
Wow, you are a itty bitty petite girl! How cute!!

I understand what you mean. Different body types hold weight differently. If you were my height, 5'4, you would be really really lean!

Do you have to share you kitchen with other people? Like is there junk food in the kitchen? Luckily, with the exception of Halloween Candy, I don't have any junk in the kitchen or I'd be in trouble.

Your consistency with exercise will come! Don't worry, just do what you can and pretty soon it will be habit. I'm always working on that one. hehe

Have a good one!

Yeah I do share the kitchen and there is quite a bit of junk food in it. Thanks MissJB!! Your words of encouragement are appreciated!
 
hey there, nice meeting you earlier. give me a bit and I'll go through and read the other posts in here. just wanted to pop in and say hi and best of luck
Ciao bella
 
Today has been relatively ok....I'm not quite sure what tomorrow or the next couple of weeks will bring. Anyhoo, did good in terms of eating and got an hr long walk in between....really tired and ready to hit the sack.
 
Today my morning weight read 117 lbs, but I ate really light yesterday-I'm not going to change the ticker just yet- weight fluctuates.

I looked up some of my previous posts today ( it's sometimes nice reading through what you did last year to lose the weight, haha) - and in one of them I wrote that for my age and height a normal range would be between 94-105 lbs. So my 100 lb mark is ok. Also someone else on the forum with the same height as me has her goal as 95lbs.

Anyways, 17-18 more lbs to lose. I might not be able to hit the gym tomorrow but I will definitely get around to it on the weekend *brave smile*
 
man, i was doing well until the ice cream at 11pm!! and my tummy hurts now- lesson learnt!! no ice cream until next summer. and no late night binging!
 
There has been nothing healthy to eat in the house today- hence, my food choices were not wise. Tomorrow, however, I am going to pick up 2 cans of soup and there should be veggies in the fridge. We have salad dressing as well. Going to try and get back to the healthy eating habits I started with last year.

My goal for the end of November is a stable 115 lbs. I'm going to hit the gym on Sat and Sun morning.
 
Hello Friend! Sorry for the drive by post here, but I have such a busy day today and can't stay long. I promise to make it up later. :)

Just wanted to say thank you for stopping by my thread and showing some love! I hope you had a great Halloween weekend.

Catch up with you soon! Hugs, MJ
 
I'm on my period and have decided not to weigh myself until I am off it. I've been trying my best to stick to healthy eats....however, I will confess I had quite a bit of chocolate today- but everything else was relatively gooood!!

Today I have had my moments of weakness and thoughts of throwing the towel in, BUT I will not give up. I've come too far to give up and there is no room for quitting. I am NOT a quitter.
 
One of the two places I interviewed at came back with a "no". I had a feeling they would- they asked for my transcript and last I remember I did not have a "high average", lol. Eh, that was a bummer. Could be a lot of other reasons they said "no" though, but it's ok.

I'm still waiting on one more place. I'm hoping that one comes through or at least I get to go to the next round of interviews. I should hear back from them tomorrow or Monday. I'm not sure about it because it was my first interview in a while and I'm sure I said stuff I should have thought twice about!

Oh well...a few more tension-filled days and then I'll know.

Anyways, the call this morning made me dig into some m&m's and a mini chocolate. Not too too much damage done. I've lost my appetite now, sort of. But I'll walk off the calories tonite anyways.
 
This too shall pass.

My weight at the end of the day was 118 lbs, so I'm assuming I'll be down to 117lbs tomorrow morning. Goal for the end of next week is 116 lbs. I can do this. I know it.
 
It's kind of scary how 2009 is coming close- I feel like it was just yesterday when 2008 was rolling around.

Anyways, just a reminder to myself that I have 21 more days to lose 3 lbs. I haven't really weighed myself as I have been sick in bed all weekend- needless to say that exercise and eating habits have been overlooked as a result.

But I'm going to try my best to get myself back on track. I just need to keep telling myself that: 115 115 115 115 115 115
