Before After

Jeer and LaLa!


This adorable lil' lamb is LaLa! She is looking forward to lose 2-3 pounds like me:D

 

i'm back

 i'm back with a couple of extrapounds...no wonder, i'm eating toom much. I have to get back on track, so

(1) i'm going to log the food i eat here in fitday

please check on my food log from time to time,i could use some support :)

(2) I have to start exercising. unfortunately i don't have much free time for it these days, but i'll do the best i can. I will go to a dance practive tonight and try to squeeze some workout into my schedul.



New Food log in Extrapounds

The new changes in EP look interesting. I specifically like the Food logging tool. But i don't know how i can get the log to show up in my page.
Any ideas, anyone?

Sugar dependency

Just that. I know what the problem is, but at the moment i can't do anything about it. These days half a pint of icecream is the only thing that gets me though my nights...

start of the 24 weeks program

Today i started the 24 week running program.
I wanna do the runs n the odd days and do the walk strength class on the even days.
I might substitute the run with kickboxing which is on TRs.

Today:
2 minutes walk
.5 minutes run
distance: 1.9m
speed 3.8

I paid 25$ and rented a locker in the gym. Now my gym stuff will be ready for me there whenever i decide to go to gym.

Blueberry-Peach Crisps

I fasted yesterday and i'm fasting today too. Besides from the spiritual reasons, I think this has been a gd practice to control my recent munching habit. No trace of weightloss though...sigh.

I've made a healthy desset from this recipe Blueberry-Mango “Crisp” and now waiting for Iftar to taste it with a scoop of the Hagen-Daz vanilla yogurt i bought last night. I aslo bought Hagen-Daz green tea icecream which was just .... heavonly.

I will go to strangth and/or kickboxing tomorrow. I think it's not a bad idea to go kickboxing after such long time. That's of course if that class is not cramped with all these new freshmen, sigh!

okay, i ate like CRAZY today. i couldn't stop myself. Iwent to the fridge like 20 times after dinner and munched on different stuff.... 

 I feel BAD :(

these days

I feel bloated and ... okay i say it... fat. The weird thing is that i just gained like 3 pounds, but my belly is huge. And i don't like it.  My only consolation is that my boobs have grown too and look actually good.

I hate to "i should" myself, but i should commit to a lower calorie diet and more workout. Tonight i went and bought the group fitness pass in our gym. I hope that helps, though i feel so heavy and out of energy and non-enthusiastic about all this.

A request to my good-hearted readers, who can access the weightloss log in Anarestan, could you please update my weight to 117?

updates

Went to gym (strength class) on Monday and Today. I was pretty sore from the Monday class cause it has been over a month since i did any serious workout, but i pushed myself to go today too.

My parents are here, and my mom has taken over the kitchen:) There is no way of avoiding white rice now, but i should watch my portions.  I had a pint of unresistable chocolate icecream in the freezer, but thanks heavons i finished it lat night and i won't let  it in my fridge for a while.

 

How do you do Ellipticals?

I have gained a couple of extra pounds. No wonder cause my workout routin has interuupted with my workload, my family visit and some personal issues. But i am determined to get the control back over it, and in a way that it doesn't interfere with my studying. Group fitness classes are closed for another 2 weeks till the Fall semester begins. So i;m gonna go to gym and run/walk on the treadmill.

I also would like to try Elliptical for a change, but i don't  know how. Somehow i have found it hard to figure out when i tried it long time ago. The movement didn't look natural to my body at all. I felt like i had to raise my knees unnaturally high when pedalling and i couldn't reach the hand handles easily. Is it because i am pettite (5' 2'')? Is there an initial level/resistance i sould try till i get comfortable with the machine? Should there be intervals like the run/walk we do on the treadmill?

Any hints, suggestions, anyone?
