PROJECT: Body fix 2006

I Agree With Skyler If Your Ready We Are Ready And We Are Here For Ya I Am Very Sorry I Missed Your Diary Lately There Are So Many But I Am Fixing That Now I Have My Handy Notebook And Pen Here And I Am Keeping Up Better!
 
Hey girl! Just been reading your diary and I just have to say something. I apologize up front if I offend you at all, but I really feel I need to say this. I understand completely about being frustrated with the weight loss and being so busy and all of that. I am way overweight. I am only 5'4" and when I first came here, I was 225. Talk about feeling like your weight is out of control! I have 3 kids and I am in law school, so I felt like I never had time for myself. I finally realized that if I was not healthy and all then I was basically no use to my kids because I was tired all the time, never felt like doing anything and on my way to lots of health problems or an early death because of the weight. On top of everything else, I broke my leg in January! I can't even walk still. I figured that I would gain back the few pounds I had managed to lose and more. But I stayed on the forum because everyone was supporting me so much, and I have managed to lose 12 pounds just since breaking my leg. I feel like I need to eat all the time too. Paula recommended eating every few hours. I just eat something small for snacks and have a smaller meal. It really helps to keep you from thinking about food all the time. Basically, bottom line is if I can do this, then I know you can. :D
 
You know - you are just my weight too! I know exactly what you mean about everything - I sit at home too all day and it's bloody torture! I mean, I'm only 18 doing this... it wouldn't be as hard if I had kids to keep me company. Plus - Sean is always calling me telling me about all the stuff he did all day and then I just get even more sad. REally, I know how depressing it can be. And my weight? I feel like I am a blimp - I feel like eveyone else with a weight problem still looks better than me... it's just striaght up discouraging. I bet you're thinking why did this girl come to my diary just to complain about her problems? hahaha... I'm on a mission! I want you to know that I understand exactly how you feel - it's not your fault you feel this way either... you're in the same slump I am but the only reason we will fail this is if we let ourselves! So.. you should be my diet buddy! :) We've got ourselves in a similar situation so maybe we can really support eachother - either way, you need to keep your head up girl... you need a brand new start too. AND you may need a scale killing ceremony. Ask Paula. hahaha, but please don't give up! I gave up last September and if I didn't I wouldn't be in this position today.. but then again I wouldn't have met you guys - so maybe 'twas meant to be. What I'm saying is - JUST DO IT! Let's just get this done with... and then get on with our lives. Look how much there is out there that's waiting for you, for me... I don't know why I waited so long to do this - but no more! And you can do it too... you have to believe you can do it and you really have to care about yourself... then you'll realize that you don't even want to cheat so much or so often. Love yourself. I could pick ou tany person on the street no matter what they look like, how old they are, anything.. if they have a smile on their real smile on their face - I think they are absolutely beaufiul. And so are you. You've got the be up for this though... if you really want to get to your goal weight you have to be ready and when you are so am I and we will KICK buTT!! Trust me, you've got it in you to do this, everybody is going to go through this discouraging time , but the real test is rising above it.. and YOU CAN DO IT! :D I could sit here and ramble on for a long time - I just really really don't want to see you give up. I'll come back to see how you're doing soon! :) SMILE! Take care hun.
 
Wow! I feel special:) I'll take all the encourement I can get. I haven't ate good today, but how about "Turning Tuesday", I'll start tomorrow. I dont really have a plan right now though. But any butt kicking is greafully appreciated.
 
Hi Sara :D just got a hold on your diary :D I agree with the others- don't give up! Come here to vent, get advice, post general thoughts, what ever it takes, but DON'T give up! All of us, at least once, get very frustrated with the way things go, but thats why this forum is so great - the support is fabulous!!! I have kids as well and know just how hard it is to juggle everything that comes your way, but YOU CAN DO THIS :D

PM me any time you need/ want to :D Have a great night!

I'm feeling good about tomorrow. I just realized it's my b-day on Sat.. Probably going to go out for dinner. That's the worst. Fettuccini alfredo with chicken and brocolli with a side ceasar salad is my favorite!
 
I totally love Fettucine alfredo..mmmmm... however, I looked it up and it has over 1000 cals :eek: so I try to stay away(try bein a keyword, lol)

hope you have afantabulous week, your birthday will be great :)
 
Good mornin' Sara :D Hope today goes well for ya :D MMMM Fettucine alfredo! abosolutely LOVE it! LOL A weakness of mine, I'm afraid :rolleyes: I don't allow it often but oh, I drool over it LOTS! LOL

Have a great day :D I know you can :D
 
Hey Sara Yes I Recommend You Trying To Use Weight Watchers Several Of Us Are On It! Hope You Have A Great Day!
 
Oh girl - it's your birthday! Give yourself the day off - you don't want to look back on it and think that you let a diet stop you from having your favorite meal, just remember to stay on track even though you enjoyed yourself. AND if you love fettucinni alfredo (because I absolutey do too!) there are LeanCuisine Alfredo! They are awesome, they have veggies and everything so it's healthy and under 350 cals! I'm still rootin' for ya hun! How are you doing? :)
 
Hey girl stopping in to say hi. As far as your Birthday Dinner goes, enjoy it! You only get one of those a year... it shouldn't be a day of dieting. Hope all is well. Let me know if you need anything. :)
 
Oh I did bad. I was ok til DH brought a gigantic eclair home for lunch. I got back on track, then he brought home Tom Wahl's. I'll need to get DH on my side. Paula- Did you get that info i sent?
 
What is Tom Wahl's? PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION!!! It's okay if you didn't do perfect today... tomorrow is another day and you will do better. I will send you a total body band workout tonight. All of the exercises can be done with dumbbells as well.
Do you want any help with your diet?
 
all it takes is waking up and deciding that just for today, its gonna be a good one! doesnt ALWAYS work, but if u can look back and say, wow, most of the days WERE good, progress is bound to happen!
 
Mornin' Sara :D Yup, PROGRESS not perfection, I agree :D You are aware of the "bad" choice so you can improve on things the next day :D Getting hubby on your side is a great thing and will help a lot.

Have a great day. You CAN do it :D
