Stop Being Delusional

Okay I really need to get serious about this. I need to lose 40 pounds and I need to run 1.5 miles in 12:30. Those are my more immediate goals, others include toning up, getting better at pushups, and feeling better about my body. I've given myself till September '09 to lose the weight but the 1.5 needs to be ASAP so no goal there.
A little bit about me: I'm 19 and a college sophomore at a service academy (USNA), so I don't have time to do anything, especially during this next year. I'm taking 22 credits, majoring in Chem and minoring in German and Russian. But I need to get in shape and I need to stop making excuses. I love swimming and I hate running, but I have to for my school, which is really unfortunate. I love reading but I don't get time during the year because I'm so busy. I also don't get to leave the campus much so it's not like I can use drinking as an excuse for weight gain. But I will blame it on the food. The food at school is definetly not vegetarian friendly (of which i've been for 7 years). It's filled with carbs and cheese and usually I'm so hungry by the end of the meal that I fill up on dessert which I can eat. But this year I'm trying to get a fridge (laugh I know you want to, what type of college doesn't allow fridges!) and hopefully that will help me nutrition problem.
So for working out right now I'm trying to the workouts in Fitness Magazine. So starting yesterday till August 20th I'm doing the Flat Abs and Sexy in Shorts moves every day, the 20 min workout on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, and the Drop a Jean Size workout on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Plus while I'm home I'm walking a 2.2 mile stretch with my mom who is trying to lose about 75 more pounds. This may sound like a lot but I'm really used to working out it's just I don't lose weight and I want to change that. To help keep track of everything I'm going to use this and my FitDay account which I've done for the past 3 days and keep my calories between 1200-1500 cals a day. There will be some days where I'll go over like my cousin's wedding this weekend, but a couple of days every now and then are okay, I don't want to get so stuck in it that I fail and keep gaining.
I'm home until the end of this week and then starts summer school, so I'll be working out more because there is really not a lot to do. But I'll put that plan up at the end of the week.
So here are my starting stats:
Height: 5'8"
CW: 173
GW: 135
Waist - 30.5
Hips - 44.5
Bust - 37.5
thigh - 27
Arm - 14
neck - 12.75

Hope that wasn't too long and I'll meet some new people and get some support! thanks for reading!
- Logan

A service academy, huh? Awesome! My best friend's husband graduated from the Naval Academy in 2004, so I know all about how demanding and intense that stuff is!

I'm sure all the new workouts you are doing will help you achieve your goals, and good luck getting a fridge! Being at a service academy, I'm sure you're a very bright, driven individual. I have no doubt you'll succeed! :)
 
Daiseeangel - thanks for the reply! I'm glad you have some idea, a lot of people don't. It is tough though, no lie. I'm definitely going to try and tap back into the drive that I used to get me in to lose the weight and be more successful at school. :)

170.5

So today was really pushing it foodwise. I got up at 0800 and had kashi (170) and a tall non-fat no-whip rasberry mocha (202) and I was pissed to learn that they didn't have the skinny mochas at this starbucks anymore. Damnit I don't want the full calorie one, i wanted the 90 calorie one.
I got my hair touched up so i'm even more of a blond which is always nice. Doing things like that makes you feel better about yourself, huh?
Lunch afterwards was at quiznos. I got a regular veggie on wheat with zesty grill sauce, blue cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms, olives, guacamole, lettuce and pickles (603). I went shopping with mom and tried on tons of dresses for my cousin's wedding and all the parties that that entails, but of course I looked like a cow in all of them. :( Well I did get 3 cute ones, but I would look a lot better in them if I weighed 135.
Dinner was waffle house, two eggs, scrambled with cheese and mushrooms, grits with cheese, and two slice of dry wheat toast (481). I definitely could have chosen a healthier meal but for some reason I didn't. I guess it wasn't too bad... I had 66 grams of protein which is really good for me. Over all I had 1470 calories which is within my range of 1200 - 1500.
The bad part was I got a terrible charlie horse during the day and couldn't stress it out until... well it still hurts and I couldn't work out. Which pisses me off. Oh well, those days happen. I guess I don't get a sticker today.
I did get pissed off at my mom today. Okay so she had lap band because she couldn't lose the weight ( not going to go there ) and she complains that she only has lost 64 pounds in almost exactly a year. But then today she gets a full fat drink from starbucks, a scone from there, drinks a sweet tea from McDs, AND eats ice cream from Brewsters. I try not to be the bitch to tell her but that is almost 2000 calories right there. Granted she couldn't keep much down but she did keep a lot of it. I try and tell her that she can't eat like that, it's just not healthy but then she says that I'm needlessly worrying. So what if I get obsessive about counting calories and being green, I'm trying to make myself healthier in the process. I just wish she would listen...
On the plus side I'm down 2.5 pounds to 170.5 :)
 
Saw this on Tiffany Dow's Journal and thought it was neat.

How much weight do you want to lose?
appx. 40 pounds (I think the count down right now is 35.5)

What is the timeframe for reaching your target weight?
A little over a year. I'm looking at 01 September 2009.

How do you want to accomplish your goal (what methods do you want to use)?
Count calories! And workout every day that it's possible. And a little bit of flexibility, like the wedding this weekend, or drinking a lot which doesn't happen very often anymore.

Who or what can support you in reaching your goal?
People here, my mom, hopefully my company mates will be.

How realistic is your goal?
40 pounds in a year is pretty realistic. It's less than a pound a week which I hope I can do.

When will you start?
I started Sunday, 20 July 2008.

What is your current height and weight?
5'8 and 170.5 but starting weight was 173.

If you were at an ideal weight now, what would that weight be?
135 pounds.

At what weight would you like to be at four months from now?
150-160.

Why do you want to lose weight?
Because I have to pass the PRT, I'm tired of being the chubby/nice girl at school and I want to be hot ( It sounds superficial, so sue me) for once instead of the one that everyone picks on and makes fun of in dear santas like it's fucking Jr. high, so I don't have to deal with long term side affects of being overweight.

What obstacles could get between you and your weight loss goals?
Food at school, getting bored, being lazy, or alternatively having too much to do.

Why do you think that you now have a weight problem?
I was instilled with awful eating and excersizing habits and never learned how to be really healthy. I had really skinny friends that made me go down the eating disorder path and then jump back to fat.

What lifestyle changes do you think would help you lose weight?
Calorie counting and analyzing what I'm putting in my body.

Have you lost weight in the past? If so, what has worked in the past to help you lose weight?
Yes, but I won't discuss how here. Let's just say it was really really unhealthy. Otherwise no, I've always been the fat kid.

Why do you believe that you did not lose weight or you gained the weight back?
I never really had a reason to or the resources. Now I'm pretty much entirely control of my life and I just have the food to worry about.

What, if anything, has not worked for you in the past in helping you to lose weight? Why do you think it did not work?
Starvation diets don't work unless you stay on them forever, and I really really like chocolate. I guess I never really wanted it enough.

Would you try writing down all food and drink consumed for a given period of time?
I'm doing it now.

Do you cook at home often? If so, what do you cook?
I can't ever because of school so as of right now I have to rely solely on what the give me.

How often do you go out to eat? Where do you go?
At home, all the time. At school, once or twice a week.

What are your three favorite foods?
Chocolate, mac and cheese, sandwiches.

What are your three favorite restaurants?
Quiznos, Crescent Moon, Flying Biscuit

What are three things you can do differently when it comes to food?
Think about calories, eat slowly, drink a glass of water before hand to fill up sooner.

If you woke up tomorrow and your body was exactly the way you want it, what would be different?
The way I felt about myself. I would stop constantly saying awful things to myself.

Do you eat when you are not hungry?
All the time... I get bored.

Do you binge eat (large amounts at a time)?
Not really. I kind of graze throughout the day.

Do you hide your food or eat in secret?
Yes. I've taken food up to my room at my sponsors house so no one would see me eat it. I've eaten my roommates food and then pretend like I didn't know where it went, etc etc etc.

Do you eat when you are sad, nervous, or depressed?
I kind of eat all of the time.

Do you eat as a reward?
Yup.

Do you eat while watching TV or using the computer?
Not so much anymore.

What do you normally eat for a meal?
Sandwiches, lots of veggies, sometimes soup.

What type of snacks do you eat?
Chocolate, cheese, cereal.

In terms of exercise, what, if anything, are you currently doing?
Run, yoga, strength moves, a lot of stuff.

Where do you go for exercise? A local public gym? School/work gym? Home?
Home and school gym.

What, if anything, are your three favorite types of exercise?
Swimming, yoga, pilates.

What is your daily/weekly/monthly/yearly motivation to move towards your goals?
Daily - scale dropping
Weekly - how I feel about myself
Monthly - how my clothes fit
Yearly - I've accomplished my goal.

Do you have rewards for certain goals?
Just the satisfaction of losing weight I guess.
 
So I've been really fucking busy with my cousin's wedding and I said that I wasn't going to be as strict during it, but now school has started so I have to get back on it. I would work out in the morning but I haven't gotten any towels yet so I'll have to wait until tomorrow night. It's good to be back...
not.
 
173

Nope, I'm a girl. I just have a cool name. :)
I'm back at school which is a good thing because being on a schedule will really help. The wedding was not very good for my weight loss because I drank and ate a lot, but I never got over what I started off with, which is really good! So I'm back to square one at 173. But the wedding was amazing! I went to the bridal luncheon at this really really expensive house (as in $2 million+) that was incredible. I got pretty drunk off of bellinis and rose wine which is my fave. :) I never get to drink anymore so that was a huge treat. Then the rehearsal dinner I ate a lot of pasta and salad (with full-fat dressing but it was so damn good) at this gorgeous old civil war era house. I really wanted to go up and give a toast for my cousin, we're really close and he's enlisted Coast Guard, and I wanted to say how he's the type of person that inspires me to be a better leader so that when I'm an officer I'll do right by guys like him. But I get really sappy and I couldn't stop crying. Oh well! Haha
The next morning we had a big buffet breakfast. Went to the wedding at 1200 for family pictures and waited around until 1600 when we finally got to the reception. But man it was incredible. I'm so happy for them! And I was in it! Honestly i've never seen two people be so much in love as my cousin and his wife (!!!) are. The reception was a lot of fun but more drinking Cosmo's and rum and (diet) cokes and eating cheese and crackers and salad and cake! I did do a lot of dancing though. Those people sure can party. And the venue was awesome as well. Luckily that filled me up until the next morning when I had baked egg souffle from panera and a bagel for lunch then snacked at my sponsor mom's house for a few hours. All of that and not working out is why I gained back my 3 pounds. :( But it was worth it. I had an awesome weekend.
So on to today. We had formation at 0700 and I went down to breakfast with my roommate who I didn't think I would like but I love! She's so sweet! I had total (140) and OJ (85). Class started at 0755 and I had an apple (81) during it as a snack. Class is good, I really like my prof and it only lasted 2.5 hours when I was told it would go till 1500.
Came back and went to lunch. Had 2 meatless egg rolls (202), salad with cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, chickpeas and balsamic vinaigrette (96), 2 egg whites (32.8) and a plum for dessert (36). I got all of my errands done before and even got on Zyrtec and Flonase like I needed to! And I applied for a credit card! Wow, I feel old. haha I had special K Pink for a snack around 1330 (270) and then split a kit kat with my roommate at 1430 (99)
I finished all of my homework even though it isn't due until the day after tomorrow. I got a 100, 100, and a 70. Whoops. Oh well. I have 100 more of those stupid quizzes to do so I'll just do better next time. I also had the brilliant idea of taking a nap which was really refreshing, but it was 2 hours and I almost missed evening formation. So Sammie, Chad and I rushed down to dinner and I had salad with cherry tomatoes and balsamic vinaigrette (39), 3 egg whites (49.2), veggie lasagna (284), and a plum (36.5). I'm actually pretty full, but that kit kat made it so I can't have an apple now because then I would be over my 1500 calories limit.
Around 1900 I worked out in the downstairs gym, it was so deserted which is good because I always feel really silly working out. I know people look at me and wonder how I'm so fat and out of shape and go to this school. It's embarrassing because everyone around me run like 5-6 min miles and I struggle with a 9 min one. Gr. Well, I warmed up on the elliptical for 10 min (97), get a flatter belly in 10 min, the look-sexy-in-shorts workout, the drop a jean size workout from the july issue of fitness which is really intense (-557), then []the 8 min to a better back workout as a cool down (-27).
That put me up to eating 1452 calories and burning 682. Now I'm going to study Russian and German and get up at 0530 to go running.

I really really wanted to get up the morning to run, but I had this awful dream last night. I dreamt that there was the man named Bobby and he was in my house with my mom, my grandmother and I. He pulled out a knife and somehow I got it. At some point he had opened all of the windows and when he finally left we just stood there and realized all of them were open so we rushed around closing them so he couldn't get back in. That's when I forced myself to wake up, because it was so fucking scary. It doesn't sound that scary right now, but it was so bad that I didn't want to go back to sleep. :( So I didn't actually get up to go run like I wanted to. Shitty excuse I know. Tomorrow though!
Went to breakfast with Sammie then on to class. It was pretty boring. Got out before ten so I had time to do my homework AND my project AND take an hour nap before I went to medical. I got back on my birth control and picked up Zyrtec and the excema cream. Tomorrow I have to go back and get my pill and go to the dentist.
I took another nap after that and then went to the nutritionist who gave me my vegetarian chit and I kind of argued with her about getting a fridge. She was a bitch about it. I'll talk to my company officer and see what he can do. I'm tired of all of these carbs!
I worked on German some and read and played around on the internet. I found this site called that uploads and hour long class everyday. I'm reading Harry Potter in German to prepare for my 300 level class in a few weeks. I need to work on my Russian and brush up on Chem as well. And that's what I'm going to do after I get out of the shower. Study, study, study.
Breakfast: Wheat Bagel (203), plum (36), .7 tbs cream cheese (35), scrambled eggs (229)

Iwan - Look them up, they have great facts and workouts, I'm pretty much obsessed with that magazine.
I didn't get up again to go running. Ugh, why am I so lazy??? And I can't go now because I have to do my strength and I just did my hour of yoga. Blah. Tomorrow!!! I have to! :( Why do I have no will power? Maybe it's because it's that time of the month and I feel really bloated and I'm hoping at the end of the week when it's over I'll be a couple of pounds lighter and feel better.
Class was good. It was all about weather and in the planetarium, which was boring so I had the hardest time trying to stay awake. It's interesting and all but dark rooms and it was chilly and comfy-ish chairs. It was miserable trying to stay awake. We had more class but we got a break so Megan and I went to the store to get batteries for my keyboard. Back upstairs for more class and then 4 hours (!!!) of chart prep with Daniel, Luke, and Connor. We did take a break for lunch but still. It took sooooo long. Ugh I hate charts. At least we get to do them in groups unlike the other class who has to do them by themselves.
At 1400 I had a dentist appointment. My silver filling is perfect and I don't need a crown and I don't have cavaties and I'm getting my teeth bleached new week! Other than that I haven't really done anything. I ordered Moes, who fucked up my order and put rice on it, blah and I took a nap...
Oh, someone from my school died the other day. He was a senior and died in a car crash. We're from the same area but I didn't know him. Still, it's really tough. Especially because we've already lost two other people in the past year. I have to remember to pray for his family and his company mates and friends as they go through this. It's a really awful thing to happen. I wish things like this would stop happening.

It was one of the mornings where I really didn't want to get up. I was just tired and blah. And I was jealous because Amanda didn't have class until 0900 and didn't go to formation. I did though, but there was no inspection which is good. Class was so freaking short, it was like 30 minutes long so my group decided to go work on our chart and Daniel bitched me out. It was ridiculous. He kept calling me childish and a little bitch and I'm not really sure what I did. He said I was talking over him and I wasn't, he was talking over me and called me hostile and to calm down. I don't know. I got really pissed off about it and it was for no reason. I'm over it now, but it was really rude. I thought he was a nice guy but it doesn't look like I'm working with him on anything anymore. :banghead: People. I swear.
I read for about two hours and got my new Cosmo. I don't know if I want to renew my subscription. It's expensive and a lot of other people get it. So I think I'll just stick with my Fitness for now. I did Yoga for about 45 min but kept getting interrupted which is irritating. I really didn't do anything this afternoon other than read and watched Elizabeth after we ordered food. Pretty uneventful. Maybe tomorrow will be better. I have to get up for remedials in the morning and then have a test on Saturday so it will probably be lame to. Oh my life is so exciting. blah. It's that time of the (3rd) month so I'm bloated and I really hope that's why I'm not losing weight and when the week is up I will be 5 lbs lighter.

Get your butt in gear and get out there and RUN tomorrow!
I'm trying to be motivating...so take that as motivation and not bitching...K? K.
 
172 :(

Ugh 172 for the 5 (?) day in a row?? Ugh. I'm blaming it on this time of the month, because I'm having serious issues. I knew I took seasonal for a reason. If any of you have stupid periods, take seasonal. It's the best invention known to women, ever. The end.
So I had to get up to go to remedials this morning. I get there and the building is locked. Hahaha thanks for making me wake up. You'd think I would have run then but did I? HAH. That would require energy I did not want to expend that early. So instead I went back to my room and took an unusually long time to get ready for formation without waking Amanda up, who yet again didn't have class until 0900. I can only put on so much make up so I sat on the computer for a while.
Class was short again because we just reviewed a short while for the test tomorrow. I like to study on my own so I left before 0900 and ran into Amanda on the way out.
I took the time with the room to myself, not to sleep, surprise surprise, but to do an hour of yoga. It wasn't too hard today. Then I took my nap. haha.
Around noon, after I finished lunch I started studying and did so for a couple of hours and then mixed up studying with watching "How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days" which is so cute! I love Matthew McConahay (sp?) and Kate Hudson! I want to look like that, too. But I never will. :(
When I finished up I decided to go work out before I changed my mind. Ugh I'm so tired. It wasn't very smart to run after I did over an hour of intense working out because my mile time was absolutely the worst I have EVER EVER EVER run. Next time I'm doing it before when I'm not worn out. According to that I have less than a month to drop 4 min! Hah. Yea right.
Now I'm going to take a shower, then spend some time on here and study more. Super.
Breakfast: Wheat Bagel (250), strawberry cream cheese (35), 3 egg whites (49)

I think I did really well on my test today. It was pretty easy and I finished first. I really would like an A in this class. I've seemed to be lacking in A's since I started going to this school and I think it's because I don't study. My 3.0 is shitty so this year I really want to study more and get better grades.
I'm on weekend right now, so I'm at my sponsors. Being lame. I really miss real college when on Saturday nights I was out and drinking and having fun. But I gained a lot of weight doing that and it was putting me on a fun route to no where. At least I know what I'll be doing in a few years and it will get better. It has to.
So I headed over to my sponsors house and had to walk the 4 miles there. It's good exercise so I didn't mind too much. But I got to the pool and I realized that I'm an idiot and I forgot a top to my bikini. And I had to wear a sports bra. I'm sure that looked sexy. Probably as sexy as me in a bikini in the first place. - gag -
Then I came over and my sponsor mom's sister and niece are over, which it's cool to meet them but I'm stuck on the couch and it's kind of awkward and the niece is kind of weird. But we watched Clueless which is an amazing movie. But now it's 2200 and she's still down here, I guess she doesn't realize that this is getting close to my bed time. That's what happens when you have to get up at 0600 every day.
I dropped 2 pounds finally! But I went over my cal limit today. I ate a brownie and it was so good. And I've done really well this week so I'm going to be careful tomorrow and stay around 1200 because I went over today. Tomorrow is also my off day for working out. I'm just going to do yoga and nothing else. But Monday morning I'm going to start this 6 week program to better the 1.5 time. I need all of the help I can get!
And I followed through with my plan that I can only go on liberty once I've worked out, even though I really really didn't want to. But as soon as I woke up from my nap after my test I didn't even think about it; I just put on my shoes and went downstairs to the gym. But that 5 flights going up is still awful, especially after working out. But it's getting easier.
Only 38 to go!

I slept soooo much last night, it felt amazing. I slept about 12 hours which never happens. I felt bad because I didn't go to church this morning but the sleep was so nice!
I woke up at 1130 and took a bath and just relaxed. Then I walked over the the NEX to buy a scale, but they didn't have one so I bought a coffee mug and lunch instead. It felt good to walk over there and I even used my green bag. I like when I do things that are good for the environment. Haha then I walked back and had lunch.
Vicki, my sponsor aunt (?) who's a retired captain took me and her daughter to see Dark Knight which I paid for but it was really good. Heath Ledger did such a good job. And it wasn't a conventional super hero movie because what happened to the girlfriend. I really enjoyed it. And I resisted the popcorn which smelled yummy. And the candy. I wanted some though.
I came back on the yard not in uniform and I was so nervous and then I was like, whatever. No one cares, it's summer school. I was really nervous when I went off the yard later to get Ninja Cafe. I didn't go in civvies but I did wear PE gear and I was like, ahh someone is going to see me. But no one did.
So I've just been relaxing. I watched the pick up artist and I'm going to watch a movie when I finish up here.

Wooo. So today was a good day. I woke up and went to class. I got a 97 on my test and a 97 on my PE. Yay!! So I have a good solid A in this class as of right now. Hopefully it will stay that way. I'm having a hard time with what we're doing now, but with a little practice it should all come back. I only have to retain it for a week and a half so I think I can just store it in my short term memory.
I came back and did most of my homework before lunch and tried to figure it out. I had some problems, but for the most part it's done. Then I went to lunch and instead of coming back and doing my yoga like I said I would, I laid in bed and read cosmo. Then slept for 2.5 hours. Hah. Whoops. I shouldn't have stayed up all night watching movies, but oh well. While Amanda went to go get food, I did it for half and hour so that's better than nothing.
I continued to just hang out for a while. I talked to my mom on the phone and then my roommate from my old school for about half an hour. Then I went and worked on the homework again! And this time I figured it out a little bit better, but not perfectly. Lame.
So my diet is going well and I lost several inches over the past week. Though I only lost 3 pounds, I do feel better. Going up the 5 flights of stairs to my room has gotten easier, but not a lot. I just started my 8 week running program today. So that's good. I'm looking forward to doing better on my PRT.

I'm looking back at today and I'm having a hard time remembering what I did. Pretty much the same. I remember this morning I got into an argument with the laundry lady because I really needed to get my laundry done, but there was not a single cart in all of summer school's wing to take it out. And I tried to explain this to her and then she got confused because she asked what company I was in and I told her and she was like, well they go out ina different wing. I tried to explain to her that that was where plebe summer is, but she's a civilian so she didn't understand. I'm not paying to do my laundry though. Screw that.
I worked on a project with the same group, but this time no hostility which is good. We finished our project too, which gets one thing off my mind. Afterwards, I did yoga for a while, then went to lunch with Amanda. These two cute guys were flirting with me. That always makes me feel good. Isn't it funny how some girl gauge themselves based on how many guys hit on them? At least I always have. One of them was really cute, too.
After I did homework then watched i am sam. I'm not going to really get into it, but I don't think he should have gotten his daughter back. Visitation rights, yes. Custody, no. Oh well, it's just a movie.
I went running after I got off the phone with Susan and my mom. They wanted to know about plans for this weekend and how Michelle was doing. I wonder if that's how my mom was this time last year? I'm sure she was. The run sucked though. I did 6x1/4 miles at a 2-2:30 pace with a 2 min rest and I about died. I hate hate hate running but I have to get better. So I went. Blah.
And tomorrow I'm going to start recording my weight according to my new scale. Ah, who knows what it will be.
