Once upon a time I use to run all the time I loved eating my veggies and I was down to a size 8....Fastfoward a little over a year I started eating meat I then moved to America and got caught up in the fast food thing and now I am unpleasantly plump and I am hating it!!!
So now I am starting over.I have not been on a scale in almost 6 months so i went and bought one today and I am a about 180 pounds I can not believe it all of my clothes do not fit and I am so sad about it! I am going to be 30 on the 12th of March and I thought I would be sexy for my 30th in my ideal body but I guess I may still be sexy but definitely not in my ideal body.
So the changes i have made thus far is I gave up on read meat chicken and pork I will only eat fish and schrimps. I also will not by any fast food while at work, i work at a call center and it is so tempting to go out and get something to eat or have someone bring something back and snack all day long. I will only by take out 1x per week and it will be something small.I will weigh in daily and try to write down what I eat.I wish I could drink more water but at my job we really can not just go to the bathroom when need be so it have been challenging to drink.I want to get back into running but I am a morining runner and my husband is in Germany for a few months and i have no one to watch my son early in the morning so I am not sure what i am going to do in that situation.We do have a gym in my complex a small one so i will take my son al ittle earlier to daycare then hit the gym-Thats my plan and I am going stick to it.
 
Well I survived today. I went to work 1030-700 and normally I am almost starving so I was suprised when I didnt just throw the towel in and raid the vending machine. I didnt excercise today!
Breakfast 2 whole grain waffles with about 1 teapsoon of sirup
Lunch some left over shrimp with whole wheat past brocolli with alfredo sauce:ack2:
Dinner Being I am not hungry I ate a pretzel at target when i went to pick up a few things but i didn not get one of the frozen drinks that I ALWAYS get so thats a start of alittle will power.
I think I am just going to relax tonight not like i have something to do anyways. I found out my grandma may be on her last breaths and it is bothering me alot.SO I am praying for the best.
Weight this morning 83.3 kilos
 
Well it is Monday morning, time to kick this workout things into effect. I am going to take my son to school then head over to the property Gym. I hope that it is open so early! Well its gonna be like 8 am but I have never been there and i know it closes over night so I really hope its open.I know I will get really motivated once I see the scale move downwards. I just want to be able to fit into my 7 jeans again-LOL I just can not belive how easy it is to fall off of track and gain so much weight in such a short amount of time.Heres to a new me:hurray:
 
Just got back from the gym I ran and walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes about 2= miles and burned about 240 calories. I remember when i could run 3 miles in that same amount of time. Hopefully I will be able to build up to that again. It really felt good to work out and I think I will help me think twice when I put something in my mouth.I am gonna take a little break clean my house eat some oatmeal shower and get ready for work.Hope today is a good day for me!!

No hope about it - you'll get there -just give yourself some time...
 
I woke up this morning so sore in the legs. I thought I would run today but I am just going to do 30 minutes of tae bo in my living room to get my excercise for the day. I got on the scale today and it read 181 down from 183 YESSSS
I am going to get ready to cook lunch which will be rice with veggies and curried eggplant.
My grandma passed yesterday so I was not the greatest day for me. I am also starting to feel a financial squeeze and It is not something I need right now cause I usally deal with added stress by stuffing myself with food.So let me go get the meal started so I can work out.
 
I am still hanging around just been busy, I was doing so good I even got down to 179 then I went on a binge....story of my life but I am back on track now and I know I will hit my goal soon enough.I want to get down to at least 169 by my 30th birthday I really do not want to bring in a new year with this body!!!
 
It sounds like you have the right attitude for sure. One of the toughest things for me is remembering that a single screw up does not equal total failure. Keep it up :)
 
Hey you, found ya Welcome back...:)

Somethings never change, im still here still trying...geeesh hey.

Allow yourself your baby steps, you did it once you will do it again:)

Where are you living now?
 
Hey Cinderelly,Yeah I am back. I really hate that I let myself get back to this point without being pregnant but hey I guess it has thought me a lesson in life-I can not eat fast food everyday!!!!LOL
I just did some tae bo I only did 15 minutes because i started looking at the timer on the dvd player and i reall have mind over matter issues so next time i do it I will remember to cover the dvd player. I really think i need to get some sort of workout equipment for my house preferably a treadmill or a elliptical machine. Now that the weather is warming up here I am starting to realize i need to be able to fit into my old clothes or I will not have anything to wear.I was thinking of attempting a 1 week fast or more so a liquid diet to get my self control under wraps.I will see I am taking my vitamins but I am not doing well in reguards to portions and that is kills me. I have wednesday through sunday off so I will try to find something to do in that time such as draw up a meal plan and exercise plan and maybe go to every gym in my neigborhood for the one day trail pass-LOL
 
I went on a 30 minute brisk walk this morning but I felt as though I was cheating myself and being lazy because I could have easy ran it but I decided I will jus do some tae bo later so that will make up for the extra calories not lost. I am hope until monday which is a good thing cause when i am at work i really tend to have to many temptations even though I have been doing great the last few days. I am hoping to up my water for these next 5 days in hope to flush my system and get on a better schedule.I purchased 2 of my favorite brand jeans 1 size and and 2 sizes to small and a real reason to work even harder at my goal ....as much of a jeans whore I am I will attain my goal in no time-lol I have been thinking about the gym membership but I just guess was so spoiled when i lived in germany only having to walk to the gym the though of having to drive there is not really appealing.

HEYYYYYY:waving:
We are in Tampa, Florida
I just can not take the cold nor the high cost of living in Boston.Its like 80 degrees and its Febuary what else is there to dream about
 
So I decided just winging it was not working so I went on the internet yesterday to sign up for the bally's fitness 1 week free pass. I waited and waited for the confirmation email but never recieved it so I decided I need to just go down there and sign up for it in person and I did. I also dressed myself in my workout clothes cause i was dertermined to exercise today so I did and I went 52 minutes on the treadmill running and walking and sure did feel good. My body constantly told me to stop but i just pushed it cause i know the weak part of me at this time is really overpowering the strong side.I decided that I will sign up next week they have all you need there babysitting,classes,open early and closes late.So I think this may be the start of a great thing and maybe I might meet some people as well.
