The Road to Change...

Pequin, thanks. You're so swell. :) (Sorry, I'm being cheesy, so I had to say swell cuz its fun.) Seriously though, thanks for the boost! You're right, I need to grieve for the old life, and move on to the new, and this will become habit. Ugh , it's just so hard. But I'm doing it...



So last night I got some serious munchy cravings, then I remember that I had bought some , recommended by Hungry-Girl. Delicious!! Tastes like banana cereal, and I ate about 80 of the things, only for 25 calories! Yummm.

I have YET to go to Curves. Feeling a bit lazy and still a bit moody, but I'm going to go soon... I think the exercise will make me feel loads better.

P.S. I've been eating Lean Cuisine. YUMMMMY. Those things are delcious and very filling.

Just got back from Curves and I did it at a slow pace. Instead of jogging on the platforms, I just walked fast. And I feel sick, ugh. I feel nauseated and fatigued.

Maybe I just need rest. I guess I'll just see how I feel tomorrow.
 
Hi C! Sorry your feeling yucky.. not enough calories? or maybe your getting a bug. Maybe you should take a rest day till you're feel better?
 
I was thinking the same thing pequin, be sure to eat a little something before you go. Maybe a slice of turkey with some cheese, gives you a little protein. I tend to prefer to work on an empty tank but not everyone can do it. Be careful and listen to your body...especially if its a bug.
 
Is it bad that I drive to Curves? It's only right around the corner from my house. I think its just like a half mile, if that. I feel ashamed that I don't walk there. lol.
 
lol.. nah! just make it your fitness goal - to be able to walk there, get your workout in and walk home.
 
Hey girl! Glad you're feeling better and no, I don't think its bad that you drive there. Hell, you're working out...you deserve the breather of a car ride!
 
Hello changeforlife, I found you.:) Thank You for all the suport and Kind words. You are doing great! You have a Pal in me:D
 
Hey Guys, good mornin :)

I woke up at about 8am, which is super early for me, and I had a hard time getting out of bed, but I finally just got up and went to Curves. Wahoo. Now I feel really good and refreshed and energized.

Also, I was concerned that I was gaining some weight because my clothes feel tight. Is this normal? I've been worrying about it... so when I went to Curves I HAD to check my weight to see if I was gaining anything...and it turns out I lost a few more ounces...which is good... but my clothes are kinda tight! Hmmm...
 
Hey Cannon, thanks for coming by.


So... I had a dream about eating cake. A LOT of it... Well ok... I'll start the dream at the beginning. My friend and I were getting ready to get married to the same guy. Now, I'm not mormon, and I don't live in Utah, but it felt like I was in the dream. The guy that we were marrying picked us up in a big carriage that looked like a big pumpkin! Or rather he sent this gigantic pumpkin for us, but wasn't in it. It was a beautiful carriage and in the dream I was blown away by it's beauty. We got in the carriage and we were off! We traveled down big hilly roads and through big trees...and we arrived at my other friends house. It was weird because we were going to her house for the reception (I think), but it was still before the wedding. There was a party there and there was food EVERYWHERE and everyone was eating, and not really saying much. For some reason I wasn't too happy in the dream. It was almost like I was forced into getting married. But I remember this big cabinet thing, with compartments, and in each compartment there was a beautiful piece of cake. The next thing I remember I'm just gobbling cake down. One piece after another. And I'm still not happy in the dream, all my dream-brain kept thinking of was I don't wanna get married like this.

And then I woke up. And I never really got to see the guy I was going to marry.

I think it means that I really love cake, lol, and maybe my brain is getting used to not being able to have it so it made this dream for me. Also halloween is coming up. And the fact is, I'm really not ready to get married...err... and especially to share a husband.
 
damn, I'm beginning to think dieting causes some crazy dreams. Or possibly the forum.... Remember Pequin's crazy avatar dream? lol

just checking up on ya CFL, hope your doing great!

Michael
 
lol.. what did you eat before bed woman?? & that avatar dream was the best!!!!

So how did you do today??
 
Crazy dream! I always have dreams about things I've been thinking about a lot - and you've been focusing on your diet changes, so it makes sense!
 
So, I feel like crying or something.

I went to weigh in today for week two, I knew that the scale wasn't going to be nice to me because I don't feel any lighter or any healthier.

The good thing is I haven't gained anything, the bad thing is that I haven't lost anything.

Maybe its my diet? Maybe I'm not getting enough calories???

I've been counting my calories every day like a good little girl and I'm always somewhere between 1400 and 1800 calories. That's the recommendation from SparkPeople.

Maybe my body is just being resistant this week and it will start losing again next week??

Oh, I've also been drinking water the way I breathe air. I drink about 150oz. of water a day. And I pee a thousand times a day.

I don't get it.
 
Don't get discouraged girl, if your watching the calories, and "being a good girl" your on the right track. 150 oz of water might be too much for you though.... maybe experiment with that. Sounds like you might be over hydrating yourself... which can be just as bad as not getting enough water.
 
Overhydrating? I never heard of that. So I could be getting too much water, very interesting. I'll cut back on it a bit and see how it goes.

Thanks.
