New Year, New Thread for Those who Weigh 200 lbs/90 Kg or More

cameraobscura Sex is actually a good exercise hahha j/k(maybe not)

@ Pink: That's true, but say like you do eliptical for 30 minutes is not that bad. I have asthma myself and do alot of cardio which is good for you, because it makes your lungs bigger. I'm only stating my opinion to you, but hey if you think that's your limit then it's okay, but i you think you can do more then do more. Also, try doing the eliptical for 30 minutes and 15 minutes with the bike thing.
 
I'm a bit behind on the posts but I LOVE the elliptical! I usually do it for 45 min to an hour at least, but now that I just finished college I don't have access to one anymore without a gym membership :cry: They work out your butt and thighs so awesomely.

So I started out this week at 218 on Sunday and now I'm down to 215! Sex is a pretty awesome workout. \

All right cameraobsura, I love the elliptical, too. And I love the other workout you mention.

I only wish I'd get down to 215. One day: In my dreams. Hmmmm....certainly it ought to happen. I'm 234 now and losing about 2 pounds per month...so in 9 months I'll be there. Woo!

I heard that 2 pounds a month is okay for people that keep it off forever...only I'm not sure I will... certainly. I should have more faith in myself...

You (everybody) are doing a great job so far! Good job!!!!

Wow everybody is doing so good! WooHOO!!

I got a exercise ball , I love it. I can sit on it and exercise even when I'm typeing, lol.

veronandez86,

Yeah I use Slim fast. But if your problem was/is the same as mine with skiping meals, make sure you are getting in enough calories, and don't skip no matter what. I've read so much resently and I will never forget to eat again. :svengo: I get chocolate, yum. I love sweet stuff... It's 190 calories. But I don't use it like a meal replasment anymore, I drink that and then have some other healthy stuff, so I can hit my mark with calories.

Oh my gosh.. I went out with my sister last night, and we went to a coffee shop downtown. Super cute... We each got a coffee, and a small pasterie.. It looked like fudge with a rasberrie on it. Yum. Took a bite, to my suprise some type of healthy light tasting thing...lol the best part was the fresh rasberry.. God help me, I can't even do a treat right anymore, what is the world comeing to... lol
 
Why in the world is it so difficult to find an affordable house to rent that isn't crappy? My lease is ending and the boy and I decided to move in together when our leases are up in May. I'm excited and nervous at the same time!

Did pretty well with the calories today, stayed right around 1200 so I'm pretty happy with today. Maybe I'll go for a run tomorrow before work if its not too hot outside.
 
oh my gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad :D

Everyone is doing so well!!!!

Congratulations Lilhun, Nataliejo, Cameraobscura and Hope!!:party::party::party::party::party:

This is the rockingest crew ever :coolgleamA:

Well Everyone.
I have a great day of no binging! and no actual want to, it was wierd. I was in these restaraunts, but I actually refused to have anything with my sandwhich. They offered everything and anything to replace the fries, but I told them I just wanted the sandwhich and would pay the same price for it. I figured the sandwhich was enough and it was small. I am sure it packed on calories. I ate it all, but I didnt binge. I did have an ice cream and it was worth it. Haven't had one in ages! It felt good just to splurge in that moment. but I know its just for that moment. There are chips undone in this house, Godiva right next to me, I could open and months Ago I would have, but I am not. I have no interest in it. I had my ice cream and thats all I needed. And my family wants me to go out and eat with them, but I think I am going to refuse and just stay home. We are supposed to go down to Boston, but in all seriousness I don't want to go down to Boston, as thrilling as it can be, I just don't feel like it. I would rather stay home, take my hour walks and I am loving this whole route thing. Havent done it again yet, but tomorrow I will be doing it. It will be done in the morning around 11:00 -12:00 pm.. I like to avoid the kids. So I go out in the morning when they are lazy and sleeping and if there are kids who want to be nasty I have decided to keep the headphones on in my area, but to take them off when I am on the main road, I dont care if peeps throw insults, I am actually happy these days and feel very strong. Maybe not completely emotionally ..a long distance relationship is hard, but I have done it before.

oh and Alex tried to solicite sex from me, my ex. Thats the only reason he wanted me to visit, Jerkbutt! So I told him no sa and hung up. I talked with him today .. I had to find someone to go on about Peter. He didnt appreciate it, but thats what it costs to have me as a friend, because he is only a friend lol and thats all he will be, and no benefits come with the friendship... I am not interested in being a slut... or what I consider I would be if I slept with him, plus cheated on Peter, Peter has actually become pretty important to me over the last five weeks and it feels good being around him. Alex isnt worth much, just someone to talk with sometimes if your down and if you up, but I am not visiting him. He is so ..low sometimes... he only thinks with one thing and its not with his brain...

oh well

The ice cream I've been getting lately have been either the Skinny Cow brand or the 100 calorie ice creams. Haha... how oxymoron is that name... Skinny Cow.

Wow! I'd want to avoid the kids too. Sometimes I wish I could just go kick their behinds because alot of them are cruel. Anyway, it's good that if they do mock you while walking, that you dont get upset. I think that's why I dont like walking outside. I'm afraid of the mocking and I'm a little intimidated by all the skinny fit people walking / running around. Hehe...

OMG about Alex!! I can't believe he would call you just for that! I'm sure. I'm sorry but some guys can be total idiots. Eerr, how guys who dont think with their actual brain and only with Junior's brain bugs me so. Haha.. i think its funny that you call Alex to talk to someone about Peter. I bet it eats him up that you are finally happy. I'm glad for you Natalie. Good luck with Peter. BTW... how far away does he live from you if he's afraid you'll find someone closer?

My weigh in for the April 2 lb Challengs is tomorrow. I think I did good this week. When I weighed myself today, because I was curious, it showed 250.5, so my weight in has to be good tomorrow afternoon because I was wearing clothes when I weighed myself. Normally i just weigh myself in my underclothes.


Great Job for everyone who lost weight, kept to their calories, tried a new exercise, or just stepped up their game!
:hurray: GO TEAM GO!!!
 
Well... I did something horrible yesterday...

I cant even understand why, and cause of that im highly dissapointed in myself.
I ate pizza. well actually two.
I just got an phone call from my ex. and he was being a total jerk. So I phoned the pizza company and ordered two normal sized pizza's. Im so ashamed of myself. gahh :banghead::banghead::banghead:

Well, the good thing is that im going to eat only veggies for two days, and then only live with juice and water for couple days, to clean my body, and then start all over again with proper weight losing. This time, I wont eat junk food. EVER AGAIN.
:cry:
 
LilHun,

Boys are jerks. That's what your ex is... a boy, because a real man wouldn't call you up just to hurt you.

Don't worry about the pizza binge. I've learned that in order to be successful at this, you have got to learn how to Forgive and Forget. Punishing yourself or being ashamed is only going to hinder your progress... Today is a new day and you will start anew. And I think that eating just fruits and vegetables is a great way to detox yourself. However, I'm unsure about only going on juice and water for a few days after that. That to me, in my opinion, is just as bad as starving yourself.

Anyway, good luck starting over again. I'm rooting for you to succeed and remember to not be so harsh on yourself. This is only just the beginning and once you get a hang of it, this journey will start getting along smoothly.

Take Care Hun.
 
Yea, i have to agree...your post comes across as wanting to punish yourself by only having the fruits and veggies. Thats just not healthy hun. Forgive yourself and start eating healthier today!
 
YEAHHHH! I feel much better today haha I played such good bball this morning cause I took a rest yesterday lol. I also ate ALOT as in ALOT of crawfish xD I ate like 5 lbs or more haha

My weigh ins are on Saturday, so I weighed in on the fourth on the April 2 pounds challenge! I know you are going to get a good weigh in hun. You have been working really hard! Keep it up hun!:party:

and that is very oxymoronish lol Skinny cow lmao

and as far as walking outside, I just put my headphones in and blast and all I hear are garble, no actual voices ..its great...and once I leave where the area the kids are in, Its all good, I turn my head phones down or now, just take them off so I can feel the breeze and what not. They are used to me getting out and walking anyway, they don't really say anything anymore..

Lilhun,
Thats not the way to get back on track, just try to eat normal, or what you think would be normal, maybe three meals a day...ect... and just go on ...don't feel horrid... just know its in the past...and thats what it is ...just the past and move on ...one thing I will suggest is to drink a tons of water... water will detox your body ...

so but you dont need to only live on what you say you will ...you will starve yourself and all the weight will come back piling on if you eat that way or more weight than you want will come piling back on ...

just eat the way .. like three meals a day ..try to hit your normal calories in take ..hopefully around 1200 or more...
