My diary

Back

So I haven't entered anything lately. I am still losing but very slowly. Its so much harder. I feel discouraged sometimes. I just have to remember that i have already lost tons. I am losing like .5 a week. Its hard to go from 1.5-2 all the way to .5

Anywho. My eating is still ok and I am going to be starting to add more food to my diet so that'll be good :)

I hope everyone is having a grea day.
 
Christmas

So I didnt do that bad. The first week of the holidays, i maintained. This week, I lost .4. I am pretty impressed, as i did not say no to too many things.
I hope everyone is having a great holiday and a happy New Year. I will try and give a better update in a bit.

Oh! I dont know about you, but i love getting workout equipment for xmas. This year I got a wii and a wii fit!!!! I love it. As well as a heart rate monitor and cow bell weight. And then I got some money and so I went and bought new runtones. I have easy tone, but now I am into running a lot so these were a great choice.
 
2011!!

So in 2010 I lost 21 lbs! So this year my goal isnt to lose weight, but to tone up and look great in a bikini. I would love a six pack. Not too much but one that when I move you can see it. :) If i happen to lose the last 6 or so pounds that I have left, that's even better. I have been sticking to my program really well since sunday. I havent weighed in much but now that holidays are over eveyrone is back and ready. So I go in tonight to see where i am.
I went skiing on saturday, 50 minute workout at the gym sunday, and then last night I went to zumba. So tonight I am going to a toning class. I think i am going to try and workout 4-5 times per week and stay on my eating program. I have to start adding calories soon though.
My to be sister in law is obsessed. She got a month pass to my gym and she wants to go all the time. Almost too much. What is the maximum someone can go? Being an ex dancer, I know that having break days are essential. But for the first time, I dont feel like i need to compete with her. I feel as if I have done well and I am so proud of myself that in my head, i dont need to compare myself. I am starting to love who i am and I am very excited to be where i want and i am even more excited to continue this lifestyle forever. Thats her issue. She gained all the weight she lost back. So shes hating herself. I wish there was something i could do (indirectly) to help her love herself and be proud. The only time she was happy, she had lsot a bit, but got very mean and rude. I feel as if I am acting nicer now lol. Mainly because I am happy.
That was my rant lol.
 
Monday

Thanks Beauty! Yes, I love it!

So I am back on track and losing again :) Doing quite well I have to say. Im just very proud of myself.

I do have a rant though. My sister in law again. So I went shopping on friday and I have ahd this planned for forever, becaus enone of my clothes fit so waht better way to add to my wardrobe lol. So I had planned what i watned to get and i got jsut those. Well we stopped at my sister in laws house and she is wearing the clothes i literally wear everyday!! Well not mine but the same peices. Now the worst part about this is, is she just bought them all after telling me she was going shopping because i was. Then I went and bought nice brown knee high boots, she had the nerve to phone me this weekend and ask me waht color they are so she wont get the same ones... then last night she pulls out a jacket she bought...I ALREADY own it!!! Im so mad.
Now this all ties in with me doign well and losing weight and her trying to lsoe weight. I am trying to help train with her and helpher with her eating, but she doesnt want to listen. And its not like she';; give up. She tells me she can do it, even after shes asked for help and then she'll tell me what a whale she is.. So rude.
I am reading a book right now (again lol) about toxic people in your life. do they contribute or add to who you are. I think shes toxic. Love her to death, but i cant take it anymore. She has never said anything nicce about my accomplishment, instead she copies me. i AMMMM SOOOOOOO Sorry everyone. I needed to get it out and I didnt want to end up telling anyone mutual.

Anyways. I hope everyones day goes well. I hope that everyone make healthy choices!
 
Good Morning

How is everyone this morning? I am cold lol. It's starting to warm up here. We had a bit of a cold spell. it was gym/work out at home only for the last few weeks. Soon, it'll be warm though.
So I did it! I broke my mark that I couldnt pass. I have been at a certain point since christmas, I could not move by it. Some days I did well and some I cheated. So for the last few days, I havent really cheated, just didnt put as much thought into it. I broke by and weighed in last night at 134.8. Its the lowest I have been on this journey. I am very excited. I am so close to my original goal of 130. I have changed the goal a little since I have decided to go by my body fat percent too. I want to bring it just under 20%. Thats in the range of fitness type. I am very excited. I have also been having more fun with my wii, which I am sure helps. I play my wii fit and its like a game to me. I love finishing a game and seeing the amount of calories burnt. Anywho, I need to get to work. So have a great morning!
-Make healthy choices
 
Hey, just popped in and read a whole bunch of your journal entries, and it looks like youre doing really good! 138 is amazing, and i do indeed wish you the best of luck for the rest of your journey :D !
 
Hot yoga is awesome, I'd do it if there were classes anywhere near me. I tried it once just before I moved away from the city and it was wonderful. I've heard great things about Zumba, too.

I'm sorry about your sister-in-law, I know people who seem similar, that don't know how to be happy for others.

Well you're doing great, keep it up :)
 
Thanks

Thanks you guys! It's great when you know people are following along, just in case help might be requested :)
 
Hello

Good morning everyone!

I am in a very good mood today. I weighed in last night at my dreadful wednesday weigh in and....drum roll....133.8!!! Since last wednesday when i weighed in at 136.4. I had a huge drop. Not too sure why. BUT I will take what I can. I am so proud of myself. I have broken the next barrier of 135, which is just great!! I went to Zumba again last night and i went and ran for 20 minutes before the class. I am so close I can almost taste it lol. I can not wait to calculate my fat percent. Last time I did it, I was 26.1%. My goal is 20%

Hope everyone has a great day and makes good choices

Hi Everyone,

I am sorry, I havent been on here lately. I have been so busy at work and I jsut started a school class. So lots on my plate. I am still doing alright. I have that drop from 136.4-132.4. So I am still happy about that. I havent really lost much since then because I have been not eating the best, or if i do eat well, I have been snacking. I am going to try to break that habit. PLUS, I havent been working out as hard...but on Sunday I ran 5 km! I wrote down how much I ran, how much I walked, how long it took me etc. So I would really like to break the time and run for longer. I dont have my stats here, but I think I ran for 31 minutes and speed walked for 15 min (all mixed together though) So I am wanting to set a goal to do a 5 km in less than 40 minutes but run about the same amount and my final goal would be to do a 5 km in a race and come in around 30 minutes.. So we will see :)
I havent been hanging out with my sisterin law as much and I am feeling much better. I felt as if I was carrying her burdens. i talked to a life coach and its been helping so much. Helping me deal with things. Not like phsycologist though. Life coachs give you challenges and have you work on you, not them.
I really like it.

Ok,

everyone, have a great day. I will make sure to update this more and get back on track.
 
Sorry

Hi Guys,

Sorry I havent wrote in a long long time. I was kind of embarraseed for a while. Not about gaining weight, but because i was at a plateau for a while. So I went a few days and upped my calories a bit. I didnt go and get a cheeseburger and fries or anything like that, but I added a bit more protein to my diet and stuff like that...and then i went back down a bit and sure enough, the weight starting coming off again. :)
As of last nights weigh in, I am .2 away from my goal...my second goal!!
I am so proud of myself and I am going continue eating the same (little more because i want to maintain my weight) I have probabaly few more days left and then I have hit the goal. WOOHOO
I can tell all the new people, the curious people that you can do it! You need to be ready for it and willing to change. Its kind of like an addiction. Honestly, I used to abse my schedule around eating. Sounds ridiculous, but you'd be suprised. I have now noticed that I no longer "think" about food all of the time. I dont HAVE to have everything in front of me. Its a very empowering feeling!

I think I will write you for a while longer. Maintaining shoud be good, but I may need the motivation to keep it up. Who knows lol.

:)
