Put that down, fatty!

I'm being a big fatty today and doing no exercise *grins* It's a sunday, dammit! I want to stay in bed all day!

BUT, next week is the week that will end allllll weeks. Yank arrives on Saturday morning so I have to look smokin' ;) So this is the exercise plan for next week.

Monday:
Walk to and from Uni - 80 mins walking
Gym after Uni for an hour.

Tuesday:
Uni and back - 80 mins walking

Weds:
Uni and back - 80 mins walking
gym for hour

Thursday:
Get up early and do work-out at gym
Walk to work meeting in evening - 30 mins

Friday:
PANIC AND GET THE HOUSE READY!!
Maybe gym in the morning because I'll be up early but I'll be running around cleaning all day so that'll burn a few calories anyway ;)

And of course, eating home-cooked healthy meals done by moi! I shall become a good cook!

And then the only exercise I'm doing for the next week will be in the bedroom *looks angelic*
 
Well you look good at 191 being 5'10, way better than my 5'7 self! I don't think you look fat at all, you really should stop saying things like that!!! Just think, you'll have less weight you need to lose because you're tall and you'll get there that much faster! Hehe :D Jsut curious, what's your end goal weight?
 
I've really no idea...I want to get into a size 12 (UK) and I'm a 16 right now. I don't mind too much about the scales. I want to get to 160 and then see how I look, I think. But if I get to 170 and think, damnnn I look good, then I'll stop there! All depends on how I look and feel about myself, I think :) What's yours?
 
Yeah it's hard to say what my ultimate goal will be. On my ticker I have 135 and I'm basing that on what my sister's are. I have 3 sisters and we're all around the same height (with maybe half and inch to an inch at most difference) and they're all between 125-135 pounds. So I picked 135. I've never been that weight so I don't know what I'll be like at that weight. I remember my lightest weight being 147 and I still had a bit of tummy to lose and thighs that could have been thinner. However, I wasn't exercising at all at that point so it was a fatty 147 not a fit 147. So with my strength training and exercise I'm doing if I reach 147 and I look like how I want to look, then I'll stay there for sure. Like you said, it all depends on what I look like and not so much the numbers. I want to look fit and toned is my ultimate goal! So once I reach that, then I'll be good to go :D
 
Yeahh, screw the scales! Best to see how we look and take it from there :D

I just got back from the gym. Walked to Uni but got a lift home (friend was driving home) but went to the gym for 45 mins with some friends. Did 20 mins on treadmill at highest incline (250 cals) and some leg exercise things on a machine. Also 10 mins on the cross trainer WHICH I HATED. It's the root of all evil. My legs felt like jelly afterwards.

Am going to ze gym tomorrow night with friends as well but may squeeze in a little workout after Uni finishes at 11am. We shall seeee.

Going out for a friends birthday tonight so will have a few drinks but NO WINE! (she says, hoping for the best!)

Had two crumpets with low fat cream cheese for breakfast and a green tea, will have soup and pitta for lunch and then a meal before I go out. Probably garlic mushrooms (home-made!) and a slice of garlic bread and a few new potatoes. It's YUM. Had it for dinner last night and was so full I didn't snack all evening :D

Got my weigh-in tomorrow as well! Eeeee! Wish me luck
 
Sunflower!!!! GLOMP


Heh, I haven't posted in your journal in a while so I figured you needed a little hiyas

hiyas!
 
Eh, the loss has slowed down a bit but that is more of a lack of focus on my part. I'm working on that. This week will be solid to end the month on a high note. Just got back from Disney, that was alot of fun (and alot of walking)
 
Ohh I love Disney. Lucky you.

*heaves you back up onto the motivation wagon*

Come on dude, bikini season is coming up, you'll want to look good on the beach ;) *grins*
 
Way to go at the gym!! I've been seeing a difference in my body too from the exercise, I am morphing into something more appealing. LOL

Thanks for stopping by my diary! Have fun tonight!!
 
Thanks JellyBelly!

Last night was pretty good. Drank too much wine though.

Feeling really bleh about Weight Watchers. I'm thinking I might go this week--wait until my cheque clears at the beginning of next week and buy myself a GOOD set of scales and either join WW online or just do it alone. I needed WW as a crutch for the first month or so but I dont feel like I'm learning or gaining anything now.

I'll go tonight though..Just to see the damage.

Sigh.

Ate very well yesterday. Had around 900 calories (food wise) but ruined it all with wine. Had 3 glasses so that's about 600 calories.

Today, I'm actually not going to eat anything until 730pm because of WW. I know it's silly but I'm worried anything I eat will put pounds on the scales at my meeting so I'd rather just wait til after.
 
Hey, I can understand your feelings of not wanting to put on weight before weighing in but not eating all day because of that is not healthy. Besides, then you're just lying to yourself and everyone else there with that weigh-in.

You need to do what's right and healthy even if it means the scale isn't so nice to you. Your body needs food and depriving your body of that will only do harm and damage. I mean, that's just as bad as eating the food and throwing it up because you don't want the scale to show that food, or taking water pills so that you rid your body of excess water so the scale looks better. All of those are not good for the body and starving yourself is no better.

I would recommend that you really take the time and think about this. Think about what the long term goal is and how doing it the right way is the only way. If you don't eat enough calories each day and starve yourself other days then in the long run, you'll gain everything back.

You need to learn how to eat proper, eat enough and fit exercise into the mix. That will guarantee success and what you want is to succeed not just in the short term but in the long term as well.

I commend your efforts so far, but I worry about how you're going about things sometimes and not eating all day for a weigh-in is not healthy.
 
Thanks Risty--I realised it was stupid and had lunch and a snack before leaving. You're right, as always <3

I LOST 6.5lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Okay, proper post.

So yeah, 6.5lbs. Which is awesome. That's over about 9 days though, not a week. So I'm super happy and looking forward to getting back to the gym tomorrow!

Congrats on your loss :) I bet you're lookin smokin' girly! Keep it up.

All the best
 
Great work this week!
I find I don't get much out of the WW meetings anymore either but the thought of knowing I have a weigh in to go to keeps me accountable all week and then especially the day before or day of the weigh in I'm really good but when I was doing the plan on my own I found I didn't care as much and would indulge more because I only had to be accountable to myself. Good for you if you can keep it up on your own but don't feel bad going back if you decide to.
