I've decided to jump start my new lifestyle with slim fast as 2 meals a day. Helps me get my weight loss started then I shall return to regular meals. I'm excited. Got the slim fast, going to the gym, cooking healthy meals! All is going pretty good ight now.
I have the internet again and for this I am very happy, but I have not lost my weight!!! I know, I know...it's been almost a year...I could have done this by now! BUT! I Will not let the negitave thoughts depress me, I am beautiful, I am woman, and I am losing the weight. Four pounds down and I started my new routine last week so I'm excited. I am trying my hardest to walk every day, at least 1 mile, and then in a couple weeks I will add another mile. I remember when I was 18 and was walking 5 miles a day...where'd that girl go? LOL! She'll be back I'm sure. Anyway, YES, Starting walking, going to the gym on my days off and if I miss a day walking I don't allow myself a luxury...like staying on my favorite online game for an hour, No! Have to mop the floor instead! That's a motivater if you can be that harsh on yourself and not 'let things slide'. But! It works, at least for me. Im excited, I'm starting fresh and I know I'll do it this time. Who's with me?!
Ok I've put myself into a boot camp via my sister being the 'booter'. Lol, she's a...interesting woman who will push you very hard and to your limits. I never wanted to enlist her for help because I knew she would very much make me sore, tired, and most of all...well fit. So! It's the third day of bootcamp and so far each day I've burned at least 300-400 calories a day. THAT'S A WHOLE MEAL! So I'm excited. My stupid stretch marks are now lighter and no longer bright red, so that's exciting. And it's only been three days. With my sisters help, my husbands support, and my determination, I will finally become the woman I once was. I'm not asking to be a size 8 again, but a size 12-14 would be quite nice. I'm a size 20-22 right now and it is very depressing. But I know I wont be here forever. So, if any of you have encouraging stories you would like to include in my 100+ weight loss susses story, while it's being written, please post, email anything. We all need support from others to keep going, and I'm going to need that encouragement too.
Many happy grins and many hugs to all my friends!
JUST a quick HI to say I'm still alive, Still plump, and still trying to lose it! LOVES!
I set myself up for failure I think. I sabotage myself, I always have. But I'm not going to let myself beat me down into that dark little hole we all know, where you think "what's the point? You'll always be fat, be ugly, so go ahead, eat that. Don't walk. You'll die anyway, what's the point?"
Sigh....as I poke the fat that bulges on my tummy I am done with it. I don't like my self esteem and so I'm changing. It might be a slow change, but last night I did something I've not done in a very long time. I went to the Gym, worked my butt off and I plan to do it again tonight. I need help tho, I need support, I'm not as strong as I thought I was...Physically I'm stronger than I thought I was but my will power isn't that strong. But!!! It will be. I will do this. I have to do this! I know I've said that before...but I do mean it. I will do it.
That's right folks, I'm 230 pounds now and I feel...icky. BUT!!! I've gotten back on track. Filled my fridge with goodies like Oranges, Salads, Juice (I mix it mostly with water and drink it when I want something like Beer, Wine, or soda...), and bottles and bottles of water. It's hard. But I can't do this. My heart really does hurt and I made a promise to my husband I'd do all I can to get healthy...but I need support...I can't afford weight watchers or a gym membership, so I have to find the will inside, and lose this weight. Now I feel the tears coming down my cheeks, lonely and wishing there was a easy way out of this...I used to never have a problem losing weight...but since I've started birth control and other needed medications it's...Crazy hard. Anyway, what it comes down to is I really need as much help as possible. I wouldn't mind making a tag team with someone on here, a daily reminder to walk, eat heathier, and do my upmost to stay alive and get healthy. If anyone is willing to do this and lives around the 865 area code, let me know. I'm reaching out to you, I can't do this alone. I have to be supported and be able to give support in order to do this. If not by phone, please someone out there join me in this crazy hard challenge and lets get though it for real this time. I can't afford to put it off any longer, I'm scared. I wasn't living up to my promise to do everything I can to get healthy and stay alive for so long as possible...
I've neglected you, and all your help you offer. I'm back now tho, and hopfully this time to stay. So far, I've kept up with losing a little bit of weight, at least it's not gaining. I'm down to a size 15/16 and that makes me happy, but I still have more of those extra pounds I want to get rid of. I need to start walking again, it's been a while. Well, to everyone who has supported me and befriended me on here, Thank you so much!!!
NEW GOAL!: Post daily, watch cal. intake, walk often
That was Saturday, and my legs are still saying OUCH. It was a rough hike, five miles, but beautiful. If anyone is from Tennessee, we walked to Abram Falls, and it was beautiful, brutal, but beautiful. anyway, I''ll post more later, I gotta get hubby lunch for work
Ok, so dishes aren't washed yet, but supper is made, bedroom is mostly clean, floors vacuumed, bathroom done...I'M NOW GOING TO WALK FOUR MILES! I hope I can make it!!! Gettin revved up. I'm gonna do it!!!
There's a goal I'm working for, and it might seems a little out there but it's one my husband and I have decided upon. We are going to be walking 6 miles a day as soon as possible, and so far I've worked my way up to two miles a day, today I'll push for three or more. Tomorrow is our break day, no walking. It's been hard, but this time I'm not letting myself get me down, I'll just keep pushing even if I don't want to...:)
