Unbeatable!

Weight: 270.6lbs

Yikes! That was a drastic downslope on weight. I'm not complaining but I knw it'll go back up :(

I made muffins! They're raspberry banana oatmeal. 3pts a muffin.

On a sidenote, the movie "Jack", is adorable. I <3 Robin Williams.


Tomorrow is official weigh in day and a new week of WW.

Eeee!!!

Official WW weigh in:: 271.0lbs!! :party:

It makes me happy cause I didn't starve myself to get there so I know it's not just a fluke that'll go back up!!!


Ate a muffin. Had planned on eating Chili for lunch, but my Momma is bribing me into taking her to A.C. Moore and Michael's Craft Store, so, it's Subway time later today! Ooooh I'd LOVE Chick-fil-a, but well, nevermind, I wont even go there. ::sobs:: I'll miss you waffle fries and spicey sauce!! :nopity: I guess while my Momma is shopping, I'll walk a few laps around the stores (the inside, it's cold outside and besides, I like looking at all the junk even if I do whine and complain and wanna go home [yet I'm the one with the :driving: keys ::sighs::])

Moving on.


Today my points start over and I'm going to try to stay close to the 34pts. I say close, because it takes me awhile to get things exact, I wanna stay in the 30's this week and not reach into the 40's. But I want more of a consistant number instead of 35, 50, 48, etc etc like last week was. I also need to start planning what I'm going to eat or making a few rough sketch choices so I'll know where I sit. It's amazing how fast you can eat right through 34pts tho. Oh. And I'm most DEF. going to try to have a remainder of extra points left over, even if it's ONE measly point by the time next Tuesday comes around.


Points allowed: 34
Points used so far: 33.5
Points left: 0.5
Extra Points left: 35

Mmmm...books!

Okay, so I didn't get the subway. I ended up stopping at the BBQ Pit and got a cheese burger wrap (grilled burger chopped up, american cheese, tomato, lettuce. Wrapped in a flour tortilla) with steak fries and honey mustard dip. Skipped the drink and went to the Sheetz next door and got bottled water.

Ended up walking around for about 20minutes, give or take. There was a bunch of standing around tho in the craft stores. I went to the book store while my Mom was in Michael's and I parked pretty far away (I ALWAYS park far away from EVERYTHING my family/friends hate that I do that lol) so that I'd be forced to walk, then walked around the other craft store. It wasn't anything breath stopping, but it was better than sitting on my butt.

Speaking of sitting on my butt, I've got tons of new books to read. Off goes the TV for the next week!! :D
 
You know, the parking far away thing is actually just a little habit change that adds up after a while, good move! You had a loss this week too, a real one, it sounds like things are improving... Hope the female stuff gets better...

Thanks for the comment =D

I like parking far away, mainly cause I don't like shopping and the further away I am the better. lol. But seriously. I dont mind the walk.

I hope things are improving! I'm kinda excited now and wanna follow WW real well and see what my loss is this week!

Extra Points Allowed: 26

I made it through yesterday with eating 33.5pts, but I didn't dare use up that .5 because I knew I prolly miscalculated something I ate and that .5 could lend itself to that.

I've got no clue what I wanna eat today. Maybe a bowl of chili for lunch and apperently I have a counseling session at 3pm, soooo, Mom and I might hit up Subway afterwards (if she wants) and grab sandwhiches. Unless she has something in mind for dinner (she never does, lol).

I needa make chicken and broccoli stir fry with ginger glaze sometime again, mmmmm. I always pig out on it tho =( lol.

Mini Goals

As of my Tuesday weigh in day, I'm 271.0lbs

I wanna go down by 4lbs each one, so I guess in some cases thats 8lbs a month, or averaging around 2lbs a week. I knw that some weeks will be good and some will be bad, and I don't expect to reach each number by each date but it gives me something to cross off and get excited about and see how long it might take. I just wanna get out of the 200's!!! Im going to assume that November/December might be slow months, since Thanksgiving and Christmas are in there, but they are only ONE day out of however many so, I should be able to do this. And after my second week on WW, I'm going to start in on exercise.

That is a great idea to write down your goals. It makes it a lot easier to visualize when it's written down. Just remember, 3500 calories is a pound. That's the most important thing to know, is to burn 2 pounds a week that's 7000 calories under maintenance for the week( burnt or combined with dieting).

Good luck,

Yeh.....I knw. I'm not the most motivaited person out there, but I'm coming around to it and well, we'll see. I purposally made it sort a stretch, but hey! it's better than what I used to do (write everything down and shoot for 5lbs a week, I was totally nuts to think that'd happen!!)

I was thinking of sticking in some MiniMini 1lb goals or picking a few different dates and saying "well, I'd like to be around such and such a weight by then", yanno?

:biggrinjester:
 
Weight: 272lbs

Weight's up due to, I hate some pretty heavy food the other day and, female issues, once again.

I've been keeping a 24oz bottle of water around, plus drinking 16oz of water with every meal.

Points allowed: 34
Points eatin so far: 41
Points left: 0
Extra Left: 19

Heh, our electric jus randomly went out. One of the downfalls of living in the middle of no where, our electric goes out for everything.

I think I might treadmill it for 30mins today, I wont make any promises to myself but that's the goal plan.

::Shame::

I did something super bad. So, we got these wings from Pizza Hut last nite, the boneless honey BBQ ones. Well, I ate 3 earlier today, 3 at lunch, and was going to eat just 3 more. Yeh, 3 turned into 8. EIGHT!! Uggggh!! They're SO SO good, I was kinda hoping my brother would come over looking for food and I could pawn the box of wings off on him before he went to work, but alas, it didn't happen.

I'm up to 41points and it's only 2pm.

On the upside, I drank 64oz of water.

Who runs at midnite?!

It's 12:30am, I'm wide awake, my sleeping is changing on me again and I'm itching and I mean ITCHING to wanna run.

Now I have two options, treadmill (which running on it annoys me, I can't get the hang of my stride and speed vs the speed of the treadmill.) or go outside.

Here are my excuses: It's like 30degrees out there. And the treadmill is right below my brothers room and he bitches about it (which is why I use it when he's at work)

So, I guess, I'll lay here and let the itch pass....I think I was born to run, like its ingraved in my head. I dream about it, literally, I'm ALWAYS thinking about it, and I constantly have the itch for it. The inner me is just sitting there all day long yelling at me "get off ur ass and lose weight so I can run free for longer then a few moments", that voice needs to go eat some cake. hmph.

Unfortunally I lack the energy. It's not the motivation, it's the energy. Between barely sleeping and female issues weeks long, you lose a TON of energy, you'd be surprised. Now, I'm not blaming that, part of it is me going "I'll start tomorrow..." and I needa just DO it.


I think I'll make that my new goal...it's my winter goal, I'll prep myself for running this winter on the treadmill and then come warmer weather, I'll hit the roads. There, remind me to stick to that, or at least lend a kick in the ass....

I wish I could walk on the roads out here, I mean I can I just don't want to, it's deer season and all the deer are rutting, damn horny bastards....and there are SO many farmers and hunters out here who hunt their own land/friend's land and I live where it's just spacious enough to hunt, and I rather get over it and use the treadmill then get shot.

Gah, I'm full of "excuses", even if they are somewhat vailed. :(

Alright, starting Monday the 17th I'm going to start using the treadmill five days a week. I've said this before, but yanno what, at some point it's gotta stick, right? I'm going to take Friday, Sat, and Sun to hammer out a plan that I'll stick to and then, I'm just gonna do it.

Enough excuses. Enough :icon_bs:. I'm done with it all, I'm just gonna do instead of think.

I guess what's tough for me, is being lazy ALL the time, that I just cant force myself to get up and do something and I'm that way about everything, I don't think I've ever given exercise a chance to the point of forming a habit, yanno? I needa give it a chance.
 
I'm so with you on this! The only habits I ever formed were bad ones, 'cuz they were easy...

Have you ever looked at the couch to 5K program? Supposed to be pretty effective at getting sofa spuds like us out running. I know what you mean too about the inner athlete. In your case running, I've always wanted to do something impressive with cycling, like some kind of long distance tour or something. We just need to listen to that voice more often I guess...

I actually looked up the couch to 5K this morning, it sounds interesting and I'll def consider doing it!!

Are you gonna eventually do something with cycling?? =)

Your post right here really hits home with me. I've ALWAYS been lazy, even when I was younger. I don't know about you, but for me, the laziness came from pure demotivation. One of the biggest factors in your psyche is your motivation level, especially when it comes to weight loss. For me, I have to keep focused on my something everyday to keep me motivated. I use a picture of me back when I was in high school, and I think of all the things I wish I could do now but can't because I'm too fat like rockclimbing, 10-15 mile mountain hikes, 30 mile bike rides, and runs for good causes.

Just keep motivating yourself everyday and you'll reach whatever goal you set no matter what happens. ;)

I'm glad you can relate, it helps to know other people out there have the same problem. I'm sure BOTH of us will reach our goals, we just might have to nag each other to stay on track :)
 
Weight: 269.6lbs

Do you guys see that number? That number in the title, that contains a SIX?! Let's hope I can keep that number until Tuesday's weigh in day. Ooooh, I'm exccccited!!

So, it's Saturday and I feel like shit. I've got cramps that would cripple even the machoist of men and I had to stand in the rain for half an hour at 4:30am banging on my own front door and consulting with my cat on what to do and how to get inside. Until I finally rang the doorbell around 5am and my Mother let me in. Had gone to my buddy's house (same one who fixed my car) and we bullshitted in his garage and I hung around for a few hours while he put brakelines in the frame of a truck he's rebuilding from the bottom up for his buddy. I love that kinda crap.

I turned down the beer tho, for two reasons. I didn't feel like adding empty calories, I didn't feel good, and I was tired, beer woulda made me more tired, and I knew I had to drive home in the wee hours of the AM, I guess that's three reasons. Turned down the pop also, go me!

I've severly dipped into my extra 35pts since last Tuesday, HOWEVER, I have not gone over and still have a decent number left. I went over by like 55points last week, yeh, I knw, how horrible!! But this week, I'm determined! I'd like to have a remainder this week, just needa not eat my way through today, tomorrow, and Monday. But I feel lousy enough that I think I'll make it, heh.
 
I see the six hun, I like it! Keep it movin, gotta love it.

As far as the cycling thing is concerned with me... I'm in a holding pattern right now until springtime. Too dark in the afternoon, or too cold and crappy. I have it set up on a trainer and use it at least 3 times a week, so maybe come spring this year I won't feel like I'm starting all over again. I plan on doing at least a 50 mile ride, and hopefully a century (100 miles) next spring/summer.

Might try the couch to 5K too. Need some decent running shoes though.
