The Diary ;-)

It's great that you are getting some weights into it! Don't be discouraged if you gain some pounds from the muscle.. they are good pounds!
 

yes i need to remember that. must start to take measurements rather than look at scale. i took measurements when i started. m going to check again at the end of 4 weeks.

hehe!!! im like that with my weight!! weigh myself a million times a day. but mesurements dont seem to change that much daily lol!!

x
 
Yeah, I like to think that it is the most consistent.. at least for me anyway. Do you just weight during the day to see what types of fluctuations different food give you or what?
 

i do weigh myself during the day but haven't actually paid attention to why it increases or decreases to tell you the truth. i'm just obsessed with standig on the scale. if it was up to me i would have it stuck to my feet all day!!!!!

Day 24


DAY 24 - 22 dec 07

nearly 4 weeks now. my monthly measurements will b here soon. i just realised that i did go over on the calories yesterday and ive done the same today. blame it on the holidays. tomorrow got another lunch so may be over eating again. cant believe it. i knew this would happen in the hols though. as long as i stay on 160 till the 27th i reach my goal so not tooo bad!!!! good news is im getting plenty of protein. also i had a good cardio session today:

10 mins bike
10 mins cross trainer
15 mins treadmill
15 mins step aerobic

average heart rate = 161 max heart rate = 243

not bad seeing as my heart rate needs to be between 110 and 170 for fatburning. summit like that!!!

tomorrows another day. got a full body workout day tomorrow. my muscles are hurting since the last one but i should b ok by tomorrow. i shall c.

It really looks like you are doing well with your project. Your exercise is really good. It must be lovely to have a home gym. While your exercise is good it is not so important for you to worry too much about the odd 100 calories in the diet. For me - the main thing with the food is to make sure that what you eat is healthy and then just try to keep the calories at a reasonable level. Well done for managing better with your protein.

Well done in dealing with the relatives. It is so fun when you eat with a crowd of size 8 people. But you are right - there is certainly a sense of achievement when you cope.

Take care
Love

thanx margaret!! so far soo good in the hols. i dont feel so bad about eating the extra calories as long as ive excercised around this time of the year!! it is amazing to have a home gym! means i can excercise whenever i want. im glad my family let me have a room for it.

i wouldn't worry about the extra 100. its the extra 500 i start to think twice about. but then again i do just want to stay around 160 and below so i should be able to maintain my weight with the extra 500 calories.

its great seeing size 8 pople everyday. have had to see them for nearly a week everyday now plus living with a size 10 sister!!!!! but i just think it wont be long before im there aswell. aslong as i keep at it.

only a few more months to go before im ther then it will be up to me to maintain it!!

You will be there (slim) in no time.

It must be difficult dealing with a skinny sister every day of life. I just encounter my husband on a daily basis and he is where I was weight-wise.

My father (as skinny as it is physically possible to be) keeps saying "we have our daughter back - you actually look like our daughter". I actually know what the old duffer means. I look more like the person that I was up to my mid 20s than I have done since then. The statement still irritates. I have always looked like me - it is impossible to not look like yourself for that length of time - you look like one thing at one stage and another thing at another stage.

People who have always been skinny are totally unaware that they can say things that irritate. It is simply that they have never been there.

Take care

Hey Angel,
Wow, you Rock! Your doing so well! I have finally come into your diary. I have been meaning too .. I love you nic and thanks for stopping into my diary...

Your heart rate sounds awesome! I usually get my heart rate up to 138 when walking, depending on how fast I walk ...all depends on the weather too ..when you have ice on the side walk it can be tuff to do a steady pace ..

but anyway ..congrats on your loss of weight so far ...

Best wishes
always

hey i hope im happy with my weight soon. i dont mind the slimmness as much as the prettiness i think. evrytime we get visitors guess who gets all the attention. not that i want the attention. im crap with compliments!!! but maybe if i lose a bit of weight atleast i may be noticed. who knows!!!

i know what you mean about insensetive comments though! i get them whenever the family gets together. i know my dad just doesn't think before he speaks but my gran will deliberetly make comments about my weight when we are in a gathering and keeps comparing me to herself when she was my age. she jus doesn't realise shes like less than 5' so a size 6 would have looked fine on her!! its horrible. but we will make them happy one day!!

gosh sometimes i dont realise whats on my mind until i right it down!!sori
