SaturdaySaint's Diary

Take a look at your ticker SS...look at the number on the far left. Do you really want to move your ticker back to that? Is it really worth letting yourself quit?
 
and i know you may feel like the old you, but you aren't! you have come SO far!

all i can suggest is that you maybe tighten up a bit so you won't feel any guilt...

but you have made some serious progress!
 
Oh... I reFUSE to let myself go back to 255... not gonna happen... I just want to reach my goal... and not stay where I'm at... it's just frustrating... I think a big part of it is this is just a very stressful time... So much change going on... ugh... but no dairy..I"m not going back! Long time no speak btw... nd Daise, nice to meet you! I used to be around ALOT...I've just gotten VERY busy! one o these days I'll pop back on for good!
 
I'm no expert but I believe I've seen other people say that to break a plateau they have upped calories a bit in a controlled way and upped exercise to go with that. Also they maybe have gained a pound or two in the first one or two weeks before breaking through and restarting their weight loss again.

It must be hard being at the slow stage wondering if it's all stopped - but you do know a lot about what to eat and how to exercise. Enough to make sure that the worst you get out of this is a frustrating plateau.

It did sound like you're scared you will go backwards - but why should you when you know that you just have to do one right thing at a time?

You can not have control taken from you here. It will only go if you let it.

You are such a wonderful dad and wonderful husband. I'm sure you will keep going through all this. :)
 
WOW you posted - LOL - ya know I love ya and wanna see you aroudn till then you jsut gotta do what you gotta do and remeber I am always here to talk to :):)):)
 
what is this world coming too people? LOL... I have been a little sick lately..and last night, I had some nyquil... knocked me on my @$$!!!! I was groggy all day today... I haven't had coffee in about a year and a half... Cut it out to aid in my weight loss.... I just went to starbucks and had a tall Mocha... as I put it to MTM&K....I may have just committed a cardinal sin in my eyes... but it SURE tasted damned good while doing it!!! My body is fighting onderland off.... not sure what IT is cared of... but though I faulter here and there..I will NOT go back to what I was. I refuse... time to get serious again people!!!!
 
Howdy Saturday popping in to say and see how your doing?WOW 44 lbs already doesn't seem like it's been that long!! Nyquil knocks me out to it's weird I get hyped up for about 1 hour then bam I go to sleep and when the alarm goes off it takes me everything to force 1 eye open they feel so heavy.I tried daytime and I can't even shut an eye lol so I stick with the vics rub and vaporizer.Hope you feel better,Tammy
 
Hi Saturday. I know that 210 rut well. I was stuck there through the holidays and when I finally broke it I about cried I was so happy. Have you tried upping your water intake? What about tracking changes in weight not just using a scale. Try measuring, if your not losing on the scale maybe your losing on the tape. I think I tried a million things to break that 210 rut, and I can't be sure what finally did it for me, one day I was 210, the next day I was 207 and a few days later 204. You can do this, its not easy, or everyone would be doing it (and the stats don't lie, very few of us are actually on the downward trend).
 
Forgive me Weight Loss.fitness, for I have sinned... it has been 1 week since my last post. :cool: Howdy all... hows it going? I haven't even stopped by really...which is sad.... I miss you guys! Things have been slowly but surely picking up. MTM&K has started having more "good days" lately. THe Bad days still outnumber the good...but atleast the good are gaining ground. I put her back on the insurance and everything is going good with the pregnancy. We go for our first ultrasound on Tuesday so, I'll post a pick of it when it happens! We're so excited!

Now on the weightloss front. I've added more protein to my diet (in the form of protein bars as a snack) and I've been faltering here and there with "cheat days".... well.. more so "cheat meals". But they haven't been TOO bad. But I think the biggest change is, I switched back to the season one biggest loser dvd...which makes me sweat more than season 2. And the downward trend has begun again!!!! I have FINALLY broken out of that 208.5 to 210.5 bubble!!!! YAY. I'm at 207. Now that may only last for a day.... even if it does.. I'm just glad I made it there. Thengs have slowed down considerably and I think that the 2 weeks of fluxuation has brought my metabolism back to "Hey...lets get back to business!" I'm doing about 100 pushups a night before bed, and 40 sit ups. The muscle definition is getting quite nice I must say... I'll have to take a pic when it gets a bit more defined! I have to head to work now...but I'll try to get in here and post/finally post in some other diaries!
 
Wow it's good to see you on here! I haven't been around too much myself, just getting in here good this week. Life is hectic. I am finally breraking out of my plateau also. Muscal is finaaly getting rid of fat. I am excitined. Glad you broke your We could celebrate by doing more exercise!!:D
 
YEah..I'm back to the grind...hittin it hardcore again. I just can't wait for my stomach to FINALLY go away..all the way. Things are going good at work to... we're really busy. Oh..and we're moving to a 4 bed room house! no more duplex for us! Things just seem to be truckin along... we're happy! :)
 
I am so glad to hear that your weight loss is moving again!!!

It sounds like the changes you made have worked out for you and that is so great! I like getting more evidence that this is the way to fix that issue too.

It's good to know that the other parts of your life are smoothing out too, especially that things are continuing to improve for Mom2M&K&thebump, too.
 
Thanks felici, things are smoothing out... and now it's interesting, people are asking me for fitness advice...which is amazing to me! Someday I'll hit everyones dairys... miss you guys
 
Welcome back, sinner. Just kidding! Doesn't it feel good to get back on the wagon, even if when you were off it you weren't misbehaving. I'm glad your wife is having some good days, I remember pregnancy and I wouldn't wish it on anybody (well, except men). See ya round!
 
Wooohoooo I made it to page 7!!!! How is everyone doing? I'm doing Good tonight!!! Tons of stuff to report. First, I got promoted! I am now the Marketing Manager AND the Corporate IT Manager. Much to my former supervisors dismay! So that means a pay increase! w00t!!! Second, I have hit the 50lbs lost mark! Which means I only have 20lbs to go. More importantly i'm 5lbs away from the mythical place called Onderland!??!!!?!!!!!?!!?! I'm at 205 right now. Third, tying into the second announcement, I went to buy some pants today.. and I'm officially buy size 36-38 pants! Which is freakin amazing being that back in highschool, I wore a 34! And I think I will eventually be smaller than THAT! :O It felt AMAZING fitting into them. And my last but certainly not least... Actually my most wonderful news... MTM&K and I went for our sonogram today... and I am pleased to announce that I will be having yet ANOTHER baby boy! w00t!!!!!! No twins :)() but a strapping young lad once again! She's measuring 19 weeks which is right on the money! Just wanted to give everyone a quick update. We're moving to a bigger house this weekend so...if I don't respond right away...you know why! Have a great day everyone!

Congrats on both the loss and the waist!
