Risty's Diary (Christina)

Hi Christina! Your plans seem great, and it you're so motivated, I'm sure you can handle Halloween! Nice for putting half your noodles away. Best wishes to you!
 
Thanks everyone :)

Yeah I should bring candy to work :p Or I could bring it to my parent's house, even though I really shouldn't cause they could lose a few pounds themselves, lol. Although my bf is doing a good job of eating candy so far... hehe. He needs to watch his weight though because he has gained a bit of weight which since he started his own business he's been walking around more so he's lost some weight since then. However, him and my sister's hubby like to have slurpee's and doritos when they play computer games, which lately they've been doing that a lot, you should see the slurpee cups in my house! Well, a couple are mine I must admit ;) But most are not! lol

Anyways, so I really slacked on the weekend. I planned on having a day of rest, but it turned into two. But I did start again on Monday which is good because what used to happen is that I would take the weekend off and then when Monday came I wouldn't start again :p

So yesterday I did a bunch of DDR, this morning I did DDR for an hour as well. I also plan on taking a half hour walk at lunch and then when I get home go on the treadmill for half an hour while watching the real Biggest Loser! WOO! So hopefully I stick to that plan.

Again I'm writing when I don't have time to check other people's pages (I need to leave for work in oh.. 5 mins!) I'll have to see if I have some time tonight to come on and check in with everyone.
 
So like I said I did my DDR in the morning for an hour and then I did go on my half hour walk at lunch. Unfortunately, I wore different shoes (ones I used to walk in all the time last year, forgot about, remembered about yesterday and wore again). My feet weren't used to it and my heels were really hurting halfway through my walk. So I decided to look at my heels and there was blood all on my socks and my shoes, lol. So part of the way back i walked without shoes, LOL. This old couple looked at me like I was nuts. I had to put my shoes back on though because there were a lot of dying leaves on the ground and I didn't wanna walk in that, so yeah.

Needless to say, I didn't go on the treadmill last night because of my heels. But at least I did what I did.

Today my plan is to do DDR with my sis and that'll be a lot of fun. I'll make sure and do really hard songs to make sure I work hard.

So I've lost a couple pounds :) I was at 163 on Friday and I wanted to make sure it stayed and it did so I posted it on my ticker. The scale said 161 this morning... but I'll wait until Friday incase it's just a fluctuation ;)

Thanks Tammy :) I appreciate your support :D

So last night I was just gonna do some DDR because of my heel but then I was like no... I want to workout harder so I made my sister go to CK with me! At least the shoes I was wearing for that didn't rub against my heel so that went well.

Today I had a crappy breakfast (coffee and timbits, AHH!) But my bf bought them and brought them back and it was sweet but unhealthy, lol. So I ate like 6-7 of the timbits and said to myself... I should go on fitday and calculate my calories, so I looked up on the tim hortons website and calculated it. When I saw how many calories it was I was like ok, I am not having anymore! But normally I would have not cared and just kept eating them, I probably would have eating 20 of them normally. LOL.. So I'm proud of myself for limiting temptation. I had like a 500 something calorie breakfast of unhealthy stuff... but at least I stopped myself from going way overboard.

On a good note, I did over an hour of DDR. Plus tonight if my sister isn't working I'm going to CK and it's going to be the hard instructor tonight and he said (cause we talked to him yesterday) that it was gonna be a really good class. So I'm SO scared, cause he's hard normally, but in a 'really good class' holy crap, I'm gonna die, but I'm looking forward to it!

Also, I'm going to bike to work (it'll be the first time in a long time) but they're paving the road outside my house and they're blocking things and it'll be really hard to get out with the way they have it set up and I don't even wanna attempt it... so I'm gonna bike instead! WOO! lol

So I weighed myself this morning and it said 159.2... OMG I can't believe I saw the 150's! Now I'm not gonna hold my breath on it cause it could just be a low fluctuation point. So again I'm gonna wait officially until Friday to weight in. However, I'm gonna do my hardest to keep it up because I wanna amaze everyone at work for the BL and show them that I've stepped up my game and they now have some competition ;)

BTW - I'm feeling so damn happy and excited, I haven't felt this way in so long, I'm just loving it!

I am happy your have a great day continue on with it
!~~~~~~~:)
 
Hehe thanks :)

So I did bike to work and back, woo! But it was cold, tomorrow if they're still working on the road I'll bike again but wear a warmer sweater and gloves!

I didn't go to CK tonight, I wasn't feeling so good and my sis and her hubby weren't either (they ate too much pizza....I don't feel bad for them at all.... I told them they should have had less and brought me back a piece.. LOL).

So today, ate well minus the timbits, but I ate 1530 cals or something, I'd rather stick to 1400 cals or around there, but 1500 is still doing well. I also did do my DDR for the hour and 15 or so minuts plus the biking to work (20 mins each way, so a total of 40 mins).

I still wish I went to my CK for a really good workout for my weigh in tomorrow, but that's ok. Maybe I'll go on the treadmill or DDR again in a bit. However I'm really tired (didn't sleep well last night) so I might just relax.
 
Hey!

So I'm happy to say that today is the official weigh-in day and it's a good one again! WOO! 158.4! Now... the trick... keeping it at that and getting lower and not higher. I'm just happy that I may finally be out of the 160's once and for all!

My highschool weight was 155 and I'm so close to that I can't even believe it. I can't wait until I reach that and then surpass it. Once I reach my highschool (average) weight my next goal is to beat my lightest weight ever and that's 147.

I like having a bunch of smaller goals to look forward to, makes it seem less... impossible, lol.

I haven't done any exercise as of yet, but I assure you, I will, lol.
 
Really upset...

I'm so upset right now. I can't believe how stupid my bf can be sometimes. Sometimes he's awesome, and sometimes he's... GRR!

The story:

He comes home from work while I'm doing DDR and decides to make breakfast which is these pancake kinda things he makes. I said I wasn't going to have any because I wouldn't be able to count the calories. So I kinda saw what he was putting in it and figured I could figure out the cals. So when he was done he walks by and says, too bad you aren't having any (cause there was a lot). So I say, I think I'll have some, I can kinda figure out the cals. He's like well I just put this and this in and whatever. So I was like ok, can you split it in half so I know how much i have out of the bunch? (he makes them really small and the only way to know the calories is to guestimate on the ingrediants and divide it by half (if I ate the whole half) Or divide it more if I ate a quarter of it. So he gets all pissed off at having to do that and says he was just gonna eat them one at a time.

So I was like split it in half, then just put it back on the main plate and take it one at a time because I need to know how much I'm having. And he's all getting angry and was like you weren't even gonna have any, you shoulda just stuck with your stupid toast.

So I'm still doing DDR and I was like I can't even believe that you're getting angry and splitting the pancakes. and then he storms off with his plate and I'm like, ok so now you're not even gonna eat with me? He's like no, you weren't even gonna have any. I was like you offered! And then I changed my mind cause I could figure out the calories. How can you get mad at me, do you how hard this is for me to do? And then he's all I'm going out. So I asked him not to and eat with me but he wouldn't stay, he just took off and I was like I can't believe you're getting mad at me for trying to control my eating, you can be the biggest asshole.

So here I am crying at my computer. I feel so alone in this at times... especially times like this where it backfires in my face in the most ridiculous and obsurd way.

I still can't believe it got that out of proportion and all because I'm trying to watch what I'm eating. He knows how I keep track of everything and how hard I'm trying, it's just so stupid.

Needless to say, I'm not eating any of his breakfast and I put all of it back on the plate. I'll have my own damn breakfast and he can do whatever he wants with his when he gets back.

Sorry to unload all of this in my diary, but it is directly related to my weight loss problems :p
 
No problem, sweetie! I'm sorry that happened, it just sounds like his frustration over miscommunication. Some dudes just don't understand it when we change our minds. Seriously, lots of men are far worse and get really snobby when women talk about calorie counting. Your BF sounds like a decent guy, I mean, he left the building instead of staying and verbally duking it out with you. It's rough when a person leaves, but in the long run, it's better to leave than it is to stay and argue. My BF says that I should leave if I get pissed, instead of yelling at him. Doesn't matter anymore, we don't live together, but I agree with him. Still! sorry you're hurt and hopefully you two can work it out peacefully, later! :hug2:
 
:hug2::eek: wow a BF that cooks ,sorry but thats shocking lol!Anyway sorry your upset and that happeneds everywhere so your not alone me and mine fight over video games and dieting he doesn't understand how serious I am with counting calories and not wanting to cheat ect.I hope you get to feeling happier congrats to you on staying ontrack and being aware of cals Tammy:hug2:
 
Curvie, he didn't have a problem with me changing my mind. The problem was that I asked him to divide it in two. He just didn't want to do that and got angry. He was fine with me changing my mind until I asked him to do that and he was practically throwing them on the plates. Asking him to do a lil something extra can sometimes go so wrong, like this morning. See, he didn't want to do that and didn't understand that I needed it because of the calories. I guess he just doesn't understand how important every calorie is and he thought it was stupid for him to have to do that. I would have done it myself had I not been in the middle of DDR.

He rarely leaves like that and the part that upset me so much was how much he blew it completely out of proportion for something so small and getting so mad. I think it's cause he didn't get a lot of sleep and he's grumpy when he lacks sleep :p Though I think it's no excuse :p

So, all in all, it's over and done with, but he gets mad at the dumbest things sometimes :p
 
Risty first of all congratulations on your 158.4! Look at your BMI lady! That's fantastic. I'm proud of you, and second of all, I'm so sorry about the bf. It was definitely a dumb fight, and it's a shame he took his grumpiness out on you. I hope things are better and he has apologized.
 
Hey,

Yeah I talked to him about it later and he did get that angry because he didn't wanna split it :p Sometimes I swear he has PMS in his own guy way. But he did apologize and I explained to him exactly why I needed him to do that and how it would have helped me. I also explained how important it was for my weight loss and how serious I was. So he apologized again and he seems to now understand. So that's good at least.

I'm so surprised I'm seeing the 150's to be honest. I felt like I'd never see this day, LOL. When I weighed in at work everyone was like :O it was awesome.

This one lady doing the biggest loser, she's lost weight every week. I mean, I can understand why, when I first started losing weight it was really easy. I mean, I just changed my eating and I would just drop the weight. But now, I have to work really really hard. So the people who are just starting it just changed their eating and going on a walk for maybe half an hour at lunch at work. Me, I have to be so careful with what I eat an I have to do way more than just a walk. But hey, that's ok. I can do it even though it's harder than it used to be!

So now, the one lady is at a loss of 12 pounds, and three of us are tied at a loss of 8 pounds (I'm one of those that are tied at 8 pounds). Then I think there's some in the 5 and under range.

So I'm hoping that I can keep it up, which means I have to do what I've been doing the past couple weeks which is really watching what I eat, doing my DDR in the morning for at least half an hour, going on my half an hour walk at lunch and then when I get home to do more DDR or go on the treadmill for another half an hour. Or I can bike to work as well like the one day, but it's getting cold, so I doubt I'll do that :p I also plan on going to CK at least once this week. I went once last week and once the week before. So hopefully my sis's schedule allows her to go (cause I don't wanna go alone, lol).

As for food, we had pizza last night, but the slices weren't so big and normally I'd eat 4 of them (which is half the pizza) but I stopped at 2. I tihnk the only reason I was able to stop at 2 was because I knew I wanted some halloween candy and if I ate more my cals would be at their limit. Besides, I want to be the type of person who can eat 2 pieces and be fine with it, lol. I've never been that person, but I want and need to be that person because pizza has a lot of calories, lol. Not only that, I need to be able to control the portion on everything I eat, not just some things, if I want to be able to continue to live this lifestyle. I can't just say yeah it's ok to binge on this! So yeah...

Anyways, I'm still at 158.something so now I know it's staying for sure ;)

So I plan on working really hard during the week so I can catch up to the one lady hopefully. I told people at work they had to watch out for me, because I'm so ready to win this, LOL. I said that in hopes of getting people to up their game as well. So, we'll see if that works.
