Kinda down today

Hmmmm, I feel kinda down today. Don’t really have much of a reason, well kinda but not really anything I want to discuss, but anyway. Just not feeling very happy today!!!!!!! But I am still gonna work out today!!! No MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!

Sooooo Upset, but then maybe not!!!!!!!

So of course, I have been sick all weekend, and couldn’t keep any food down, so I was not able to work out, other than doing my Walk away the pounds video at home, so I was not excited abotu getting ont he scale at Curves. So, I get ont eh scale and it shows I ahve gained 4 pounds!!!!!!!!!! 4 POUNDS!!!!! I was soooo upset, becuase I knew I had been eating well and working out like crazy!!!

Well, luckily for me, I know the owner of my Curves personally,a dn i am really talkative so they all know me and they know when I am getting discouraged, so they we elike come here!! So then they did my measurements, (I am still technically a little over a week away form my monthly measrements they do at Curves, my measure day is the 7th!!)!!!

AND GUESS WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

rn

I lost 1.9% of my body fat, lowers my BMI by 1.4 and lost a total of 28 inches!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I was exstatic. I mean I knew I was lookign better cuz my clothes are all baggy, and everyone keeps telling me how good I look, but I am really happy about that. I am going to bust my but to mot only loose those crazy extra 4 pounds (proabbly water retainage, cuz 1 was already gone when i got up this morning!!!) and still loose my 4 for the week so I can reach 20 down!!!!!!!!!

Still, all in all, I am pretty happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Late start to a new week!!!

I love 3-day weekends but I hate the week after. I always feel a day behind on everything, and with my gym and Curves being close yesterday, i don’t feel my work-out week got the normal Monday jump!!! But that is okay I will just push it the rest of the week!!! Aiming high this week. Hoping to make it to 4 pounds down this week so I can make it to 20!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll keep you posted on my progress!!!!!!!!

GO JAGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only 1 pound but I’ll take it!!!!!!!!!!

So sorry JAGS but I only lot one pound for the team this week, but I will take it. I had a rough week this week and was forced by my doctor and my body to change my workout and dieting, so I am still happy about the one pound!!!!

Well it doesn’t take much to get me excited, but I purchased my first nre top in my new smaller size.I am not gonna buy much cuz it won’t fit for long, and it looks great. I have had 3 people stop me in the hallway (I work in an office park so there are like 10 companies on my floor.) and ask me if I am loosing weight and tell me I look great!!!!!!!!!!! So I am super excited and my boyfriend is taking me to dinner tonight to celebrate me well on my way to my goal. And of course I have already looked up the nutritional information and planned out what I am gonna order and it is all good!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!! Liek I said, I get excited easily!!!!!!!!!!

Much Better Today!!!!!!!!!!

thanks to everyone for all the advice and your concern. i ahve reworked my diet and I am going to take 2 days off a weeka nd not do a vigorous 3 hour work out int he gym. i can’t promise I will not do anything on those days, but it will be light!! I PROMISE!!! I am getting off work early today so I should make it to the deep water aerobics class in my gym and then I will fiish the day off with 30 minutes ont he treadmill and my Curves work out!!! That is not to bad especially considering I took yesterday off after a harsh talking to from my doctor!!!! and pretty much everyone on here and everyone else I know. I did stick to my 2,000 calories and I got in 1,800 so that is good for me. I feel much better and I got myself some Centrum so i could make sure to get my vitamins. I weighed in this morning and it looks like only 1 pound weight loss for this week  but my official weigh in date is not until tomorrow, so I am gonna hold out hoping that maybe I can loose one more. I am actually at 1.6 but it doesn’t do the fraction of a pound on here, so i am hoping to loose that last .4, so i can at least make 2 pounds this week. Wish me luck!!!

And I ahve to give a special shout out to Angela and Cindy cuz they we extra concerned and sent me soem really good advice, so thanks ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very Bad Night Last Night!!!!!!!!!!

rn

I had my first bad night last night. Not that I ate bad or anything like that, but I just think all my pushing it finally caught up with me. I mean I am in no way anorexic or anything but I am jsut really sticking hard to my diet and after looking back over the last couple of days I have had only less than 1,000 calories a day. i guess when you are eating pretty much all salad and sugar free jello, it just doesn’t make the numbers.  So I had no energy yesterday!!! I went to Curves and pretty much passed out. I barely made it through. I wanted to go to the gym afterward but I just couldn’t. I was litterally on the couch crying becuase I was so upset that I couldn’t get in my full work out. Thank God for my sister!!! I called her and she gave me some great advice about ways to get my calories up without adding alot of fat and carbs, which I am watching. She (and my boyfriend) feels that I am just going to extreme and this was my bodies way of saying somehtign hasto give. Either give me more food, or do less in the gym. So I was pretty discouraged last night. my mind is there and pumped and ready to work out, and my body won’t let me. Soooo, I am going to lessen my diet restrictions a little bit, and get some good vitamins to hopefully get my energy level up. Hopefully I can still get in soem good work outs the rest fo the week, and get some weight loss in for the week. GO JAGS!!!!!!!!!!!

I am blessed!!!

I just read a blog my sister put on her page about me,a nd I realized, man i am really blessed. I ahve a really great and supportive family, and with that, I can pretty much do anythgin I set my mind too!! I have also found this great website with all these amazing people who keep me inspired everyday. I just wante dto say THANKS to everyone!!!! We are all lucky to have eachother, in whatever form of friendship we can have. It took me a while to realize that everyone comes into your life for a reason and people that impact your life can even be people you may never meet!!!!!!!!!!!

Ha ha forgot this!!!

Unofficial 2 pounds. So I normally only count my weight loss at the Curves’ scale, because scales can fluctuate, so I like only counting the same one, but i just got a new scale at home, so I tested it out last night,a nd it looks like I may have lost another 2 pounds this weekend. I am hoping it is correct, btu I am not going to count it until I verify it on the scale at Curves!!! Either way, I am loosing steadily,a nd am well on track to reaching my goal of 100 pounds by December!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Start of the week!!

Just posting to wish everyone good luck this week, whether it be dieting or exercise!!! I had a low week last week, only lost 2 pounds, so I am hoping to at least double that this week!!! Wish me luck!!! Have a great week everyone!!!
