Exactly 2 weeks till I go back home.
Before then, I really need to get ride of that stomach I have gained this half year.
All I need to do is eat less and work out more.
Which eating is coming along fine, but no work out yet.
I keep on telling myself, I'm too tired at night to run. But I need to, and I wouldn't give myself excuses...I hate this word...tomorrow.
Hopefully I will lose up to 2 Ibs and that annoying stomach.
I don't know if others will face the same problem that I did.
If I discovered one thing out of my attempts at weight loss is that, the more pressure I felt from losing those pounds, the more I gained.
A recent reading in Prevention made me realized that chronic stress is a big factor in my weight gain and over eating.
One more thing I realized it that, other than being unhealthy, over weight by 5Ibs, I don't have to lose weight because I feel unattractive, because that's not true. All this time, my stress had been not going back to H-town a more attractive me than before. But I realized now that even though I have gained weight, I still look more attractive and confident, and when you are confident, what your weight is on the out side melts out of the mind of others too.
At this point, I don't plan on giving up on look my best. But I think I have finally take the edge from weight loss. The consistent pressure I get from wanting to look good, with out it, I think a healthy life style will help me lose the fat much more efficiently.
Falling off the wagon is often something that results from emotional eating, which eventually escalates into a long term triple-chocolate-mud-cake-eating frenzy.
It's happened before, and very often the reason behind my weight gain during times that I'm actually trying hard to lose weight...
I think I'm doing something wrong then. Maybe the way I'm treating this weight lose is not right. Instead of losing weight, I have managed to put on some pounds...
How do I know?
My banana republic size 2 jeans, which is more like a size 4 at Gap, that I could put on with a squeeze weeks ago....well, don't fit me anymore!!!
Yeah.....it's a huge wake up call. My goal was to slid into them easily after I lost a feel inches....but I'm going the other way around....
No time to beat myself up.
I picked thing up today. My original plan to was to run from 6-7pm and then take the Hip-pop class my school offered. But I got sooooo tired, I end up just going to the hip-pop class and skipped running.
To make up for that, I will be doing Winsor Pilate's 20min workout. (Something i had got a while ago, which does work, 'cept I stopped using it before summer started.)
As my eating goes, I have been eating measured amounts, and I feel full all day without having to stuff myself. Surprise!
I'm going to pick logging up too. I think it helps tremendously, and since I'm more organized these days, I wouldn't get off track as easily.
Thanks to you guys who has been supporting me by commenting. It really helps to know that what I'm doing is being watched. It gives me more motivation to keep on picking things up.
I will be updating. Promise. =3
2 chocolate bars down. 4 extra pounds to come...
So not keeping up with work out. First of all, I feel too tired from school to want to attend anymore extra classes.....
Secondly, I haven't been able to control my mouth.
I think largely this is a result of emotional eating.
I feel like I'm embarrassing myself...
I shouldn't. It doesn't help...but....
Is it too late to say that I will start over?
Day 14, and no pounds lost....
I suppose it's only because I skipped workout Monday cause I was really tired. But I went back to Houston this weekend, and mom commented that my legs looks thinner and my back seemed less thick. So I guess that's a good sign. =)
I want to share with everyone what I learned from Prevention.
It's a book called Flatbellydiet. (Flatbellydiet.com)
Go ahead and check it out on the web.
But here's what this whole thing is about.
Basically, a new research shows, that if we eat WUFA-good fat-in every meal, MUFA targets the belly fat and burns them off.
Supposedly, if you eat good fat(it's explained in the site what good fats are) you can lose billy fat and lose weight even without exercise!
I'm interested, so I have been trying that for the past 2 days. No result to be seen right now, but I do feel less hungry after meals.
I still need to keep on telling myself to not worry about the result and just do what I have to do daily, no matter how slow the weight loss might come, it will come with the workout I'm doing. ^-^ Right?
And much of this worry comes from wanting to fill in expectations of others, but if I'm doing this just for myself, then I wouldn't worry so much about the speed.
I guess weight loss is more than a change in our outer appearance. It's probably also a improvement of how we think about things we need to accomplish.
I hope I will get a lot out off this. =)
No kidding. I gained what i lost and one pound more this weekend......
AHHH, I HATE WEEKENDS. =b
First I ate a little too much at lunch Saturday, and I tell myself. "It's OK. I wouldn't eat as much at dinner."
Guess what happened? I got really hungry, so I finished a whole foot long sub....it was meatball.
I feel a little down now...cause I worked so hard and it was all for nothing...
Feel like giving up the goal. But I wouldn't. There's a lot at stake.
I will be going back to Houston this winter break, and a lot of people are expecting a lot of me. AND I do want to meet their expectations.
It's been a long wait, but I'm going to lose all the weight I have set for myself.
I just need a little more belief in myself, and maybe a little more patience.
I messed up....
The weekend had been nothing but gaining weight by eating.
......
I feel a bit hopeless. But I will pick up on the weight loss starting Monday again.
Now I know where my pit-full is. WEEKENDS!!
Does anyone else have that problem?
I haven't given up yet. Next week, tomorrow, is a new day.
Check marks for the weekdays.
2 (x) for the weekend!
Here's my new method of keeping track:

Wish me luck!
I have lost count. All I know is that I have been doing what I need to do every single day...but WHY AM I NOT SEEING THE RESULT?!!!
The easiest answer is, TODAY'S ONLY THE 3RD DAY!!!
=b
I know that well enough. But this usually happen to me, where I'm just too eager for results that when I don't see them, I feel like I will never see them. "Loss Hope At the Beginning." The good news is, if I get pass this period, I will be more motivated.
So I need to keep reminding myself that it's only the beginning, and my body WILL tone and get better!!
No breakfast again...waiting for the weekend so I can go buy something.
As for lunch and dinner. I ate a little bit too much.
Exercise: Legs and Bun workout 45min
Upper Body workout 45min
=3
"First" days are all well followed. Let's see if I can keep up. I want to believe!!
Didn't weight myself. But I think I did pretty well in both eating less and exercising enough.
Breakfast is still a problem. What to eat in the morning that's healthy, and is a grab and go food??
I really have no time to make breakfast in the morning.
45min Upper Body workout
45min Abs 101
Losing weight is just HARD!
I have lost weight and gain it all back and more....I still don't know what went wrong.
Prior to graduating HS. There's PROM. I had liked a guy, and I wanted to look my best in that super stylish dress I bought at Ann Tyler's.
I worked hard, running for 40min at least everyday, watched what I ate, and even went so far as taking a diet pill. (never doing that again. x_x )
I lost a lot of weight!!! How do I know? I went from 140 to 130 more or less. My waist was smaller, and my friends told me my face looked thinner too.
I was extremly happy.....until I gained all that weight back over the summer and 2 Ibs more...
I'm now 142 Ibs (Suprised myself today when I weight myself) !!!!!
I'm decidedly unhappy with my apparence.
And the past month of trying to lose weight has resulted in gaining some...
"WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?!!"
Maybe, it's because I have been eating too much? I have been exercising, but maybe I'm eating more cal, than I get ride off.
So new goal.
CHANGING MY LIFE STYLE.
LOSE 1Ib + per week.
Reasonable right?
My mini goal for now is to lose 10Ibs when I go back to houston this winter break. ^--^ I'm going to pride myself in my persistency.
And beside, my reward will be prettier cloth, and more attractive figure.
That's what I'm aiming for. My confirdence in my self-image.
