Getting smaller

So, I was sitting at my desk, doing some work, I looked up and notice someone just staring at me.  I asked if something was wrong, and she said, "You just keep getting smaller."  That really made me smile because even though I did drop about 15lbs, I wasn't feeling it.  I feel the same and when I wake up in the morning and look at myself in the mirror, I look the same.

That feedback totally motivated me to keep trying even though I feel like I'm not yielding results.

Pizza

I always tell myself not to eat such fatty food.  I start off by eating well and then I cave.  I was so good when my brother brought home pizza yesterday, I was like, I'm on a diet, I can't touch the pizza, so I ate salad.

Well, this morning,  I had a slice of pizza for breakfast and a slice of pizza for lunch.  In my defense, I DID run out of food to eat and that was the only thing I had available.  I went grocery shopping and HOPEFULLY I'll be good.

I'm just going to count today as my cheat day for the week.

Fluctuations

Hopping on the scale and seeing the scale go up rather than down can be quite discouraging.  Whenever this happens, I ask myself, what am I doing wrong?

I'm eating better than usual (still working on the eating habit, I just LOVE food), no more sweets, no more fast food, I have the occasional starchy food (my Bane), but that's probably a once a week treat and it's a very small treat.  I'm even working out more.

But yet, sometimes, when I hop on the scale, I'd go up a few pounds.  I weigh myself right when I get out of bed, so I'm not weighing myself at a random time of the day.

This is quite frustrating, maybe I'll chuck my scale out the window and get a new one.

Bleh

Lost some weight, worked out a ton, BUT I ate chili cheese fries yesterday = (.

Keeping my eye on the goal

Since my schedule is a bit off, I've decided to break up my work out into two intervals when I have a pack schedule.  So today, I woke up, hopped on the treadmill for 20 minutes, showered, and then started my day.

I usually get home at around 9:30pm on Tuesdays, so, I got home, ate dinner, and then lifted weights for 20 minutes and here I am, blogging it.

So today, I worked out for a total of 40 minutes.

On days where I actually get home earlier than 8pm, I won't break up my work-out and do 1-2 hour work out.  I'm hoping this will be ok.

My eating habit is... decent I suppose.  I'm not craving junk as much, so I really need to just remind myself that If I TRULY want to lose weight, I can't give in.

Starting Over

Well, it's been awhile since I've been here, I got side tracked by things and of course gained all the weight I've lost.

SO, I'm starting all over again, I guess I can start a new goal and whatnot, I want to lose 30lbs by March 2009.  That sounds like a reasonable enough goal.

= (

I've been sick for the last few days, I swear, I get sick for about a week or two every month, it's starting to bum me out.

I haven't been working out, obviously, since my body doesn't feel too good.

I had lunch with my friend yesterday, she was laughing over my coughing fits, not cool.  But she did say that it looks like I lost a lot of weight, that lifted my mood a bit.

I have about 2 weeks before the month is over, I want to work out = (.

I also want a sandwich. >_<

Portion Control

It's been almost 2 weeks since I've posted.  It was a bad 2 weeks, but I'm trying to get back on track!  I cheated and hopped on the scale today >_<  I did lose weight, but I'm not going to record it until April 1.

Well, I was trying to follow a strict eating regiment and cut out some food that I love, and I've discovered that it isn't working too well for me.  Food was and will always be my bane.  So I've been trying something new lately, I'll eat what I want, but I'm just going to divide that one meal into multiple meals.  So far, it's working.

I no longer feel deprived and food is just... awesome.

I'm still working out, I've increased my time spent working out, but I've decreased the amount of days to work out.  I'm now only working out 4-5 days a week rather than the 7 full days, but my workout is now 90-120 minutes long.

I must keep on truckin'

I'm debating buying supplment like vitamin C and such, but I'm not sure yet, I'll need to figure out what my body needs.

Monthly weigh-in

Well, I'm 159.8, which isn't too bad, at least I made my goal of hitting 160lbs by March 1, but I have a feeling it's mostly water weight, since I haven't been working out this last week. 

I'm still sick = /.

Anyways, goal for March:

1.) No fast food

2.) No salty food

3.) More strength training

4.) 155lbs by April 1.

Still sick

Morning all,

I'm still sick, still can't workout without the need to pass out, still hacking my lungs out, and still feeling like poo.

I want to work out, I've been doing light stretches and really light lifting, but it's not giving me those happy feelings that I usually get after a work out.

I have a huge test today and I don't even know how I'll make it to school without feeling all faint and such.

This is pretty much a complaining post >_<.
