Ok, I must say I feel very good today. Got on the scale and I am down 4.5lbs (193.5). This is great because believe it or not, I got on the scale Friday afternoon and it said 200lb. I am sure it's just water weight but weight is weight. I am really trying to stop getting on the scale every day. I did good with my eating and exercise this weekend. I watched my calories and did alot of indoor and outdoor activities. I plan on going to the gocery store when I get off work so I can have a good meal plan for the rest of the week. I think the best thing I have learned the last couple of weeks is that weight loss does not happen over night. I no longer want a quick fix. I want a change that will last a life time. I am learning to make realistic goals and stay committed. i think I am getting off to a good start. So go me, go me, go me! :party:
 
Hey welcome to the forum.
Your right its a lifestyle change, it may be hard but its worth it!
Good Luck :D
 
Today has been a great day. I had a lean pocket and water for breakfast and a lean cuisine and water for lunch. I worked out on my glider for 35 minutes during my lunch break. Trying my best not to get back on the scale before Friday. I think I need to stop weighing my self every day. I am proud of my self and I really hope I can keep up the good work. Consistency is my biggtest problem.
 
You sound like you are off to a really wonderful start! Congrats on your 4.5 pounds lost so far! The first few lost are usually the biggest motivators. I wish you the best of luck, I know you can do it, especially since you made the wise decision of not looking for a quick fix and instead wanting a life change. This diary is and all of the people here are a great support.
 
OK, today's been ok. I haven't exercise yet. I had a lean pocket for breakfast and chilli for lunch. I need to make sure I have plenty of veggie for dinner. I need to make sure I workout tonight even though it is so much hard for me to work out in the afternoons. Working out at lunches has been the best thing for me. I am continuing to remind my self that this is a slow process and I pray I loss my 2lbs this week. I'm on my 3rd bottle of water. I am still motivated!
 
Having issues today. Worked out during lunch but I couldnt resist eating that dove candy bar. I had a lean pocket for brkf, a lean smart pizza for lunch, 3 bottles of water and that dang on dove bar for a snack. I also had a cup of trail mix. Gotta slow down today or I may do some damage. I think I am going to work out again when I get home.
 
Freakin trail mix. Gets me everytime. You think your doing good for yourself till you read the nutrition facts and find out that 1/2 a gram is 50,000 calories.
 
Ok, my weekeand was ok, not great, but ok. I thought I would get alot of exercise by working in my yard and playing with the kids. Well my mom has been sick so I really didn't go in the yard at all. My baby girl is also not feeling the best (she has 4 teeth coming in) so I pretty much stayed in all weekend. I haven't lost any more weight. I am still at 193.5. I can't wait to see the 180's again. I am going to work very hard this week!!!~ Going home to work out for lunch. I had a cereal bar and 2 bottles of water so far today. I plan on eating a lean cuisine for lunch.
I am going on a trip to the mountains the 3rd week in Janurary. My goal is to loss 20 pounds by then. My short term goal is to loss at least 10 pounds by Christmas. I know that may be hard with the holidays but I am determine. Wish me luck. I hope everyone has a super poductive week!
 
You're off to a good start, congrats! Good luck to you. Dont be too hard on yourself for little slips. We all do it sometimes. :seeya:
 
Thanks, Jae0!
My work out went well, 40min of cardio. Now I am enjoying a lasagna lean cuisine (320 calories an 7gm of fat). I'm feeling Good!
 
I let my husband take front and back pictures of me today with my work out clothes on and I couldn't believe how bad I looked. But I am using them (teh pics) for motivation. I am going to put them on my phone and on my mirror to remind me what I look like with my clothes off.
I just cant believe how big I have gotten. I use to be so proud of my body. My husband says "what do you expect, you've had 3 kids?" Well kids or no kids, I want this to be the last picture that I take and look that bad in. I WANT MY BODY BACK!!!! And I am on my way to getting it. i know alot of this sounds a little negative but there just my thoughts right now. Please don't mistake this as me putting my self down, I am really doing the opposit.
 
Pound Cake are you serious! the nutritionists' secretary at my job made a pound cake. Pound cake is my absolute favorite. I had to have some. I am not upset with my self because I only had a sliver which only equaled 1 once when I weighed it. The nutritionist helped me look up the nutriental details and its was only 109 calories and 4g of fat. I wont have a breakfast bar this morning and I will eat a banana before my workout. I am ready to workout today. I loss 1lb and I am so excited.

Now thats enough about food and working out. My husband is starting to confuss me. He has been saying lately that he really didn't want me to loss weight and that he's been waiting a long time for me to get hips and curves and etc. But now he's starting to make little comments like my body cant change back to how it was and he doesn't think I am going to be able to loss more than 10 or 15lbs. Is he challenging me or what????? I haven't figured it out yet but I will.
 
Had a great day. Worked out to hip hop abs for 30 mins (fun, fun, fun). Ate a lean cuisine for lunch. I had a half of cheese burger for dinner (bad I know). Didnt have time to cook, had to go to my husband's game (he coaches). Now I'm going to bed early. Good night.......
 
It's almost lunch time. That means it's almost time to work out. Boy I dont feel like it today. I am so tired. I guess I just have to get over this hump! today has gone good eating wise. I had corn flakes for breakfast with 1% milk and 1 cup of grapes. I am all out of bananas and I hat that because I like to eat a banana before I work out. Oh I got a good work out last night ;-) does that mean I can skip my lunch time work out?
 
Your doing really well so far! Don't you love Hip Hop Abs??? I lost probably my first 30-40 pounds just from doing Shaun-T's workouts! So keep it up and give it your all and you really do get results! What your husband said sounds like a challange to me! Don't listen to him, you can do whatever you put your mind and energy into! You can have the body of your dreams, you just have to do what your doing- eating well and working out. I think your off to a wonderful start, I love that you like Lean Cusine and Hip Hop Abs like I do, I swear by both of them. Keep up the good work and keep pushing yourself, it gets hard to stay motivated some days to work out but soon you will crave it.
 
Thank you sooo much Janvier for your comment! I need all the encouragement I can get. It's great to meet someone that has loss weight doing what I'm doing. If you have any suggestions for Lean Cuisine meals or healthy snacks, please let me know. I have to add more protein in my diet to give me more energy. Thanks again:waving:
