Hey Jacqui!
Thanks for the encouragement! I really appreciate it. Sorry for the late reply....I've sort of been avoiding this forum since my intake recently has been really bad. Pretty disappointed in myself.
Well stay strong! Good job on the halfway mark!

I know what you mean about staying away from the forums, I did the same thing too, but I've finally realized (with the help of Alteredimage, M2M, and T2 Trucker) That the people here are always going to be here to support you, through the good and bad times. And yay for us being the same age! It's awesome to have people the same age as me on here! :D

xorie, when I was your age I never gave a rat's tail about what I ate let alone the right from wrong aspect so you have a lot going for you. I'm still proud to see young people thinking about their dietary futures.

I coulda done great things with my life at that age if I was at least thinking about it but I didn't

That's what my mom tells me too. and she sometimes thinks that i'm too hard on myself. And my sister says that a lot too, but she's a size 5, and doesn't really understand what i'm talking about.

Aaah !! yet more proof that the only people that don't or can't lose weight are the ones that give up.

Clearly you never gave up and came right back at it believing you could do this :) Now you're enjoying the effort of the mindful hard work you put forth !!

I'm very proud of you xorie ;)
 
Hey xorie!
I'm soooo glad to see how well you're doing.
You're a definite inspiration to myself and obviously many others as well.
Keep working hard.
You can totally do this.
 
Well. Today I had probably a bit more cereal that I should have had for breakfast, a turkey sandwich for lunch, and spaghetti for dinner. Add to that 3 apples throughout the day, and about 5 vanilla wafers.

I went to the Y yesterday and was still able to go for 1/2 and hour on the cross trainer, even though i hadn't been there for a month. :D I'm going again tomorrow for about 40 min (since I have no 6th period any more) then I go to the horses. :D:D!

I love the fact that as I get older, my parents get smarter.

wow your snacking system (with the apples) seems to be going really well! i cant seem to get a hold of mine yet .. it starts off well in the morning and then i kind of get run away with it through out the day..
so good for you for having this will power im really impressed
and lol about the parents - i think it works the other way round in my house!!!
 
wow... so a lot's been going on.

food wise, I've been super good again!

bowl of cereal for breakfast w/ fat free milk
turkey sandwich for lunch
lean gourmet lasanga for dinner
"low calorie berry cheesecake" for dessert. (I made it myself!) *does happy dance cause it's actually really good* :D


I played with the horses yesterday, and it was all good. :D


but...on the other hand, my friend, Mark, who has cancer? I had a dream last night that he died...it's kinda shaken me up a bit, because the dream was so real...I seriously almost woke up crying...it makes me even more scared for him...
 
That is a really weird, and sad dream. I've had dreams like that about family, and it makes me feel like i'm going to die myself. (heart is fluttering, i wake up hyperventilating, in tears, soaked in sweat) They are NO fun. It makes me wonder what i'd actually do if something like that happened. My friend recently experienced somthing similar. Her sister who was in a wheel chair finally moved out on her own, and then her wheel chair/her entire apartment caught on fire, and she died. I am thankful of every day of life now. I wish the best for your friend. My boyfriend's father was diagnosed with cancer about 2 years ago. He is cured now. So dont give up hope. Have faith.

Great job with your food. I had a really bad day today. And again.. i am jealous that you get to play with horses. lol.

Hope tomorrow is just as good.
 
Well today was good. I had a serving of cereal,

a turkey sandwich for lunch, 2 apples, and a bowl of cheddar potatoe soup, and about a third of my dinner of lemon chicken raveoli from Marie Calanders. I was full after about 5 ish bites, cause of the water I drank and the soup before hand. Now it's in my fridge!:D

Spent most of the day mucking out stalls, and my legs are killing me cause this is one of the few times i've actually sat down for longer than a minute or so.:D
 
yeah ! youve really got your food intake under control and im so impressed with that. also that cheesecake sounds rlly yummy - how did you make it ? :)
 
So I'm here to report no loss for this week, but I'm alright with that, considering that I've been drinking a lot of water, and have upped my apple and fruit intake by a lot! :D

Hoping to see the scale move next week!
 
You're doin great. I love fruit. It's really great for when my very rarely seen sweet tooth comes lurking. Lol. Keep it up.
 
Oh my goodness Jen! You're just melting away! only 12lbs left! You're such an inspiration! :D

The scale read 192 this morning. Am V. happy about that. :D
