SOS...I am sinking the boat!!!

First off, breath. It's ok. Dont let the scale do this to you. Look at yourself. You are doing kickboxing, spin and other exercises. If that stuff is not enough to make you happy then I dont know what will.

I personally think weight watchers is a good program but it can be skewed. Maybe you should count calories for a while. Figure out how many you get subtract 500 and compared it to the points you are eating. See where your x amount of points brings you compared to your calories.

If you are eating at a calories deficit and exercising (unless something is medically wrong, which i will assume there is not) then trust the system will work. It is only 1 week, 1 month of the rest of your life. Do you think you will lose for ever? NO! Will there be some periods you maintain or gain a little abso-f'in-lutely.

Hang in there and please, please, please don't let this beat you up. You're to nice of a person. SMILE!

hey girl! I have my ups and downs too... it happens. The wine... oh boy... i found that out too the hard way!!! looooove wine... relaxes me... love it. Well.... had to back the heck off because whew.... they are packed with the calories and sugar really.


You are doing fine girl... stick with the kick boxing and draw energy from people on here who are on fire when you may feel like you arent.... thats what i at least try to do.....

GOOD LUCK
 
thanks guys....i just thought i would be about 5 pounds lighter....

i am not giving up---i just had to really vent.

what i did was send an email to a good friend of mine who is a personal trainer and really has good results when it comes to losing...she has alot of food allergies and so she has really studied up on nutrition. i sent her a sample of what i eat daily along with my exercise and a little history of the last few months.....also letting her know of my weekend parties and how i have eaten poorly but not totally thrown in the towel...maybe she can give me some insight on what my body is doing....

i have been invited out to dinner tonight and its mexican (like all the grad parties lately) so I may just have something from the sidedish menu...a taco maybe and a salad....no drinks....

i just wonder how i can get through this weekends grad parties and weddings...we will see....
 
hey bare, i'm sorry about your discouragement. The other guys already cheered you on, and you already know i'm your biggest fan! what i would say is let your body do its thing. when a couple months go by with nothing then get frustrated. but if you think about all the changes your body is going through, you have to give it time. i look at it now, as i've had a slow month myself. i was 269 june 5th, and 260 as of last friday, i was doing more than that a month! but i think my body is in a transformation phase, where muscles are forming and things like that, when it catches all up, it says "oh shoot!, i still need to shed these pounds!" and bam! you have a HUGE unexplainable loss! it'll come to you. i know we want to lose this crap and lose it now, but this is good for us all this way. if we loss every week, it would seem like we are on some type of super diet/ workout, which we can't keep up with. I think we need to just workout the balance and just change things up for our bodies to keep it happy. i too long winded. mucho love and keep up all the hard work. i look forward to hearing from you soon!
 
okay i just stepped on the scale and was 155...which means i would be 154 if i weighed in at ww...i will take the 155 as i think i am going to start weighing in at home......i usually only weigh in on thursdays but i have been so bummed abuot not losing that i am going to take the number on the scale today.......i have worked my ass off for it

went spinning today.....grad party tonight and wedding tomorrow....
 
for my mexican night out i ordered a taco salad with NO SHELL..and chicken instead of beef....i had abuot 15 chips.....i think i did well.
 
rough weekend. Last grad party and wedding of the season...I counted my WW points last night and I did 49 points :). Thank God for spinning over the week...geezzz....I have a fundraiser to go to today and I expect to be good the rest of the week. I didnt keep my sobriety promise actually..but all they had was white zin as far as wine...yuck.

I ended up wearing a red dress with my cute red shoes and danced all night..my feet are slightly worse for wear today....argh....huuuurrrtttt...slept till only 7am...need to get my butt in gear and do some cleaning....

hope all is well with the rest of you....

love me.
 
spin this morning and abs....

back on the diet/good eats extra heavy today. i am going to be really good this week as I have had my fun and its time to get smaller :)
 
smaller indeed. you'll be fine. i'm sure you probably look great now and keep up the hard work. spin that fat away! how are you bare. i've been neglecting your thread it seems. can't let that happen again!
 
couldnt get up for the 6am spin so I am going to 8am weight training. Hopefully will feel like walking after that. Eating back on track yesterday..i did goooood...hope to see positives on the scale in negative form
 
excellent bare. not the part about not making spin. I was wondering how early that calss was. someone just enlightened me as to what exactly spin was.. sounds fun. anyway, i'm sure you'll be fine after weightlifting. and i'm also pretty sure you'll see a loss!
 
I stepped on the scale and the 2 pound loss I saw last Friday is official (I say official because I have weighed in on Thursday since December and last thursday I wasnt down.but friday of last week i was..because I wasnt feeling motivated I took the friday weigh in...now..to me..in my mind..its official)

I didnt go to WW to weigh in, I am usually a pound less on their scale, but I used my scale number....Mentally this f's with me...I can be a creature of habit sometimes....

One thing, I put on this little plaid skort today that I bought for a grad party at the beginning of june..it is a size 12...it actually is loose on me.

Workout today was pretty good....when I walked in the trainer said "you must have been too sore to do spin yesterday.." and I explained that I actaully went to the 3pm class and didnt know it was cancelled so I did elliptical but yes I was sore..and she said she was sore too from her own class LOLOLOL....

anyway, today i feel good and less bloated than i have recently...I am thinking that finally my plateau has been broken and maybe the scale will start moving again. Especially since I dont have grad party or wedding this weekend.
 
glad to hear things are going in the right direction again. its always good to hear from you.size 12 is loose now ehh. niiice. lets see if i were a woman, i would be a size 14-16 lol. keep it up. i'm still pushing through my self. i just keep thinking 55 more pounds is nothing! december is going to be a great month as i shed those last few pounds to pure sexyness lol. ok i'll stop rambling!
 
hi karebare!

I've read about pages 1-11 and ever since 36...

you are doing an amazing job making this a LIFESTYLE change versus a fad diet..I can tell! You're really motivated and make small, non-drastic changes-- good for you!

You inspire me to make little changes, but to keep moving forward and to continue to get back on the wagon asap.

Good luck with the next 25 pounds!

hi relly oh i am glad u r good

okay i just went and rode my bike about 4 or 5 miles and then walked a mile at the track at the high school..its a beauty of a day out there...

and the little jelly seat i got for my bike..well that feels so good on my almost boney tushie..(yes karl i said bone and tush..but not that kinda bone n tush...geeezzzz)

off to shower the stank off..and get some lunch

hugz and shiz
 
well i went and bought a new bathing suit for vegas tripin Sept...JCPenney had them all on sale...ended up like 10 bucks for the top and 10 for the bottom..you know at the beginning of the season they are charging 50 to 70 bucks for a dang suit.

I tried on a size 10 pant just to see...not there yet..but they were those skinny legged ones so i think if I were to try on bootleg it might fit differently

also bought some new bra's and underwears....TMI ..I know! nobody reads me anyway LOLOLOLOL.

food pretty good today, went over my points at dinner also the only day this week i didnt exercise. My trainer says at my age I should be doing something everyday...I just couldnt get in the mood. I am spinning at 8am tomorrow. Very happy the scale finally moved....VERY!!!
