Sarazilla's Journalus Fabulosis (sounds sciencey!!)

So I've been a member of the forum for a few days now and have been meaning to start a journal, but without having all that much time to give a decent intro. I still don't lol, but if I don't post something now I may never ever get to it. Sooooo the basics. I'm getting married next November and I'm a bit squishier than I would like to be. I am 5'10 and 198 and would like to be at a max of 170, but 155 would be my super duper ideal goal.

Joining this forum has been a good thing for me because I spend so much time on here reading about other people's battles that I forget that I want junk food lol :) It also helps because it forces me to have a plan. At the mo', my plan is to eat 1700 calories a day (less doesn't work for me for some reason) walk at least 3 miles 3 times a week, drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, and do a bit of extra weight liftingy stuff. I was looking into that calorie shifting stuff today, but the menus are super crappy lol so I guess I'll just have to do things the old fashioned way.

Oh yah, and as of Saturday I lost a pound and a half since I joined the forum :) Yay me ^_^

(Is this what posts are supposed to consist of??)
 
Damn you Halloween!!

So my brother brought home a bunch of Halloween candy which he has so graciously offered to share with me. Very kind of him, but I'm afraid I've fallen off the wagon a little bit. Plus, yesterday was our anniversary and we went out for fondue and I ate WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more than I should have. On top of that the weather here has been so gray and depressing I have been unable to get up and work out.

I'm trying not to sweat it and just get back on track. :sigh: Not really looking forward to this week's weigh-in.

I've also looked into "calorie shifting." The technique and results look awesome, but the menu looks dismal. I'm thinking that I don't want to do that lol. Does anyone have anything to say about calorie shifting?

it's your Journalus Fabulosis -posts can be whatever you want them to be.. :)


Into each life some halloween candy will fall -not to mention birthday cake, cookies, pizza and other stuff... Don't forget that this should be a lifestyle change for it to be effective long term - just make those treats work in your day :)

Thank you!!! :) Yeah, in my workouts I'm all about the weight liftingy and joggish stuff; it's how I roll.
 
Hi Sarazilla; I found you! Nice chatting with you in the chat room tonite. Good luck with your eating plan and exercise. One of my favorite sayings is "no plan, is a plan for failure". I'm going to say that in front of the mirror every morning starting my GO day which is Friday November 7th.

Now I really am going to go to bed. lol
