Nikki's Picture Diary!

Congrats on the weightloss Nikki, you're sooo pretty even at your higher weight. :)

Good luck on your efforts! x
 
Thanks for all of the comments.:hurray: I will be checking in with all of you. Hope you don't mind, haha :)

Omega, that makes sense. I will definitely try to start thinking like that on my next shopping trip.:iagree:
 
I have the best bestfriend ever...
Ok so, I have been slacking on Jillian Michaels workouts lately because I like to exercise in two rooms, either the computer room (which I prefer) or my bedroom. Well, the computer room does not have cable so I can't do her workouts On Demand, and my bedroom Tay sleeps in during the day because he works 3rd shift, and I hate working out really late. So........

My bestfriend (Twiist, member of this website) who moved THOUSANDS of miles away with her BF (she visits every year or so, woohoo) sent me these......

ALL OF THE JILLIAN WORK OUTS I LOVE! How sweet is that? So now I can workout in the computer room! WHEN I WANT TO! I don't have to wait on Tay to wake up, lol I will definitely put these to good use, especially since the Halloween Challenge started today! Wooooo!!!

Thanks again girl!:hurray:
 
I forgot to add, I lost 2lbs! I weighed myself on Sunday (Sept. 13th, 2009) and I weighed 188lbs, well I weighed myself today for the challenge (Sept. 18th) and I weighed 186lbs! Yay! Hopefully I can keep this up.
 
Hey hey! good job on the weight loss. I remember when i was able to shop for regular clothes.. it was soo liberating! The clothes were cheap! I like and am never turning back! I'm not a fan of the biggest loser, because i don't think it properly portrays how much work is necessary to lose weight. These people lose unrealistic numbers, and most people eat it up. I guess i'm like that though. Why watch sports when i can play them myself? Same goes for that show. Why watch people work hard to lose when i can be doing it myself? I know they have tips and such, but the don't release too much, otherwise they wouldn't be able to sell their cookbooks and workouts and tips. It feels more like a way to exploit those who are trying to get fit than to help them. I nice that the contestants lose weight, but most of them gain it back. Of course that's my opinion, and i can totally see where the motivation will come in. but at the same time its a game. so, i don't think weight loss should be a game, not saying it can't be competitive, but no one should go home. I think it should go like that show fat march, where there is a pot for them to split and it goes down which each person that bows out. That way, everyone wants everyone to stay, and there are no secret pacts and plotting to send people away from getting healthy. Anyway, enough with my BL rant. totally not the thread for it. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!
 
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO CAN NOW FIT "REGULAR" CLOTHES....

So, I know 11/12 jeans is still considered plus size in most places, but, I always find that size in the "regular" clothing section. Anyway, I was out shopping today, and I felt soooooooo awkward being in the "regular" section. I felt like that last time I was this size too. Does anyone else ever feel like that? I'm so used to shopping in plus size or going to the back of the store to find something so now when I'm up front with the skinny bitches (hey! I mean that in a good way, haha) I feel so beyond out of place. Like they are just looking at me wondering why I'm up there with them. Like they know damn well I can't fit those clothes or something. Ughhhhhhh. I HATE that feeling. I feel very paranoid up there. Anyway, I tried a few things on that I liked, I didn't get them though, maybe next time. QUOTE]

ok. a few things
1) I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL!!!!! It is totally weird being surrounded by the "skinny bitches" ;) hehe

2) In feb of THIS YEAR... i was wearing eiether size 9 or 11 pants.... even a few 13's..... here we are in Sept... and i am wearing size 0 dress pants, and size 2 jeans.....

WTFF>????? you might be thinking... yeah me too. I weigh 124 now... and am wearing little people clothes.
ALL THAT TO SAY... those sizes drop FAST... never in my life have i EVER worn ANYTHING smaller than a 7..... and here we are. You will be that "skinny bitch" before you know it. But whats strange is... you never feel like you are a skinny bitch. I sure as HELL dont understand how i possibly fit into those sizes... my legs still are a little chubby... i still got a badonkadonk... hmmm... and they arent skin tight on me eiether... i comfortably fit into them.


Its right around the corner for ya toots!!! :cheers2::hurray:
 
Thanks for the comments! Marie that is really amazing. I will check out your diary for sure.

Ok so I guess this is my first rant, I am pissed right now.

My daughters preschool teacher was supposed to make a home visit today at NOON, well, over an hour later, she's still not here. I didn't work out because usually thats the time I would be ending one of my workouts or starting it and I didn't want to be all sweaty when she got here. Well, I call the school to see whats going on and the secretary tells me she is at lunch......ummmmmmm W-T-F?? I am really irritated. Is this not really rude?? Or am I just upset for no reason? I told the secretary to tell her to cancel today, the secretary said she will tell her to call me ASAP. Ugh!

You're welcome!! I told you I want to be apart of your weight loss process and I knew you wanted those bad so there ya have it. It's much easier when you are able to work out when you want to and not have to wait on someone just to use the room to exercise. It's something I deal with everyday. Though now I got to where I can do the bike while he plays his video games. I guess that's an improvement haha.

Anyway I know you can do this best friend. We baddddd bitches, bad bad bitches! lol

We shall dominate in the halloween challenge. Goooo SPOOKS!
 
I'm extremely bored right now...it's making me want to eat! Ugh.

I think I'll go hop on the stationary bike for a little while.
 
Hey girl!! Good job on the 2lbs! :) -- You are doing great! && I soooo feel you on the Skinny bitches rant lol.. Girl, I dont even remember when I could shop in the "Non-plus size" corner of the store.. HAHA! I was probably in 4th grade.. (No, I'm being for real LMAO!) I can remember being size 16-18 in jr high.. So it's been a long time since I've been that size.. I've been a size 26 for as long as I can remember! & I've been okay with it.. UNTIL NOW!!!!!! And I'm making a change that I will NOT look back again!!! -- Other day I went shopping.. well I got great deals that I couldnt pass up lol Alot of cute shirts and jeans onsale.. shirts was anywhere from A DOLLAR yes ma'am $1 to $5! I got like 5 shirts and 2 pairs of jeans at $7 a pair.. ONE pair of the jeans I couldnt fit in because they was 2 sizes smaller than what I wear but, I bought them KNOWING I couldnt fit into them because I want to use them as my PROCESS jeans lol.. once I get into them I know I'm doing real good! and I just gotta continue to work out harder and I will get to my goal size! :) I'm not gonna shop so much right now because as I see the pounds are falling off.. I just gotta make the sizes drop then I'll be doing the damn thang!!! LOL

But, you are doing great ma!! Keep up the good work! :) Glad to be apart of the Spooks with ya!

It's Jaz! LOL -- & Yes girl! They are super cute too! I may take a picture of me trying to get into them and then when I can... A PICTURE OF ME WEARING THEM! LOL (For myself of course.. well the first pic anyways lol) -- I can't wait til I start to drop sizes thats when I'll really feel great!!! :)
 
Oh yeah I know what you mean Jaz.

Just wanted to report that yesterday I did Jillian Michaels No More Trouble Zones, 1 hour on the stationary bike, and Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred level one. I'm a little sore right now. Boooo!!!!
 
Just wanted to do a quick update. :)

I didn't work out yesterday (boooo!!) I said I would when my daughter got home from school but I ended up doing her hair. (which took a long time, washing, detangling, parting, and so on....) but I did keep my eating under control which is great. It kind of sucks that the pounds are not flying off like they were but thinking about it...I weighed 269lbs on April 3rd, 2009, the DAY I had my son. Now, 20lbs just melted off without me doing anything, which left me at about 241lbs, the last time I weighed myself I was 186lbs, so I've lost what?? 55lbs since April 2009. If you include the 20lbs that melted off that's 75lbs in 5 1/2 months.....not bad! I need to be PATIENT!!!!!! I have to keep reminding myself of that. I have about 12lbs to lose to get to my preprego weight, hopefully I will be there by the end of the Halloween Challenge (Go Spooktaculars! haha) I can fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, some are a little tight but eh they fit. It's crazy how much your body changes after having a baby. I don't care what anyone says, your body will NEVER be the same. In my case, I guess my body is better since my first pregnancy I started it off weighing about 210lbs, and got up to 280lbs. But, yall know what I mean.

Tay and I are supposed to take the kids running/jogging this weekend. Well, I asked him and he said maybe, maybe means yes, right? RIGHT! lol I guess I can put this jogging stroller to use now. It's still in the attic, brandnew in the box! We need to put it together. Not sure how well it will go. I have a serious leg injury (I will probably save the story for another post) so it usually starts bothering me after walking for a short amount of time. I just have to push through the pain though because there is literally nothing that can be done about it. Anyway, enough of that.... :) Tay is totally going to out shine me, LOL!!! He has always been pretty active. He can play basketball for hours straight, full court. So obviously I know he can run. I know he wants to get back into the shape he was in when we first met though. He has gained about 20lbs in 4 years. He used to have a 6pack, now it's more like a 4pack, lol I'm not complaining though. Although I did love his 6pack! LMAO!
