Risty's Diary (Christina)

Aaawww sweet heart...we all get there from time to time you just gotta find your groove again adn you will.Remeber what you want and why you want it and try to not let your stress get the better of you.My stress rips me apart if i let it, i really gotta work hard to keep that beast tame, lol.I have found a routine that helps me and does me well when i can follow it and when i fall outta routine it screws me up left right and center.I never thought i would find a balance and a routine BUT I DID and YOU CAN TOO:

:hug2::hug2::hug2:

re-evaluate and refocus:)
 
Hey T, sorry everything is so busy for you! I feel the same right now- except I am not worrying about a wedding or honeymoon. I do, however, know what I want, and yet I am not doing it. I don't know what the reason is. I wish I did. I think my problem is that I want someone to do it with me, and there is no one who will do that. I'm not sure if your boy will do it with you?? If you are ever on at the same time as me, message me and we can talk or something. Take it easy with you knee, and just do your best. <3 you T.
 
Hey eveyone, if anyone is looking, lol.

I am coming back to the forum and in reality I was really scared to. For one, I gained a bunch of my weight back so there's shame in that. Plus the shame of not being on here for almost a year. It's just hard to get past those insecurities and put my mistakes out in the open again. However, I need to be honest with myself and to everyone in order to inspire change once more.

I really need to get this under control. Why? Because I want to start a family in the next couple years and before than happens I want to be healthy. I want to be at a healthy weight so I can have healthy pregnancies as well as having my children grow up and learning healthy habits.

Oh and I got married Sept 4, 2009! YAY! lol

Hey Risty,

Thanks for stopping by my diary :)

Congrats on the wedding and looks like you're thinking positive as you start out so keep it up! x
 
Hey Christina!

Welcome back! You got my support, granted i disappear at times too. Its easy to just go on autopilot and let life take over. Its hard to do, But you gotta stay conscious about whats going on, and not get sucked into the "normal" around you. The normal around you is quick delicious calorie dense foods, that are convenient and easy. Life steers us that way, when we are not diligent and stick to a plan. You haven't completely backpedaled all the way. You know how to do it, so it will be easier this time.

Good Luck!
 
Hey, thanks for the support you guys!

Yeah, I did it before so I can do it again. I just need to stick to it! You're right, it's easy to go back to the normal way, the easy way. I just have to figure out how to make the healthy way, the normal way. Make it so that it's natural to live that way.
 
It's not easy coming back after gaining, but don't worry about it! We all go through it. What matters is you are here again, and you are taking control!

So happy to hear about your marriage!!! Wow!! Congrats! I want a hubby!! hehe

I look forward to seeing you reach your goals this year and having that family.
 
Hehe, thanks a lot!

I don't think we'll have kids for a couple years, but I want to be fit and healthy when I do get pregnant, have a healthy pregnancy and have my kids grow up knowing healthy habits and eating :)
 
I have no plans for kids just yet but was talking about this just last night to my other half... I really dont want my children to be growing up overweight or with bad eating habits, I want them to be healthy (and happy with their weight!). It's definately best to get there yourself first, so you can practice what you preach. :)

Anyway hope your weekend is going well! x
 
Well, last night and today were not very good. I came down with the flu that my sis and her fam had. It was horrible. I still feel horrible. Just wanted to come on and let people know I'm still here but won't have time/energy to stay sitting at the computer any longer today.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better!
 
Well on the up side, you've probably dropped a few lbs...! just a shame they never stay off after you've been ill lol.

Hope you're feeling better soon. :) x
 
Hey,

Yeah I'm feeling a lot better than a couple nights ago, but still not 100%. My appetite still hasn't returned fully (not really a bad thing, as my appetite is hyperactive :p lol).

I have lost 3.5 pounds due to the flu, but I'm not putting that on my ticker because like you said, those pounds tend to come back. So once I get back to normal, I'll see if I can keep those pounds away and then I'll put them on my ticker!

Ha, good luck with that then! Maybe some good can come of your flu ;) x
 
I had my first lunch out today for my birthday... yes it's my birthday and I'm 26 today *sigh* Getting closer and closer to 30! Anyways! I got a curried seafood pasta... yeah I know curry and creamy so soon after a flu.....! I wasn't planning on eating the whole thing though. I had my starter soup and house bread there, and a bit of pasta. I also got free desert so I had a piece of mocha kalhua mousse cake. It was all good. Have enough pasta leftover for another meal tomorrow! However, it was a bit much for my tummy so far since all I've been eating lately has been soup and crackers. I had one sandwich yesterday and that was fine. But still, that was a lot of stuff to handle today, lol. I feel slightly nauseated but hopefully that will go away!

Happy Birthday! Bummer you're not feeling well but sounds like you're recovering slowly. I found this forum less than a month ago and it's been a tremendous help so far. Takes a lot of courage to try again. Just wanted to say Good Luck and Welcome Back!
