The weigh in results for this week (clears throat ). I currently, weigh 266.8. YEAH BABY, she is doing it. I know that incorporating that bit of running into my work out helped. I went to the gym both Friday and Saturday. It seems that I have the best workouts when I dont want or feel like going to the gym, IRONIC. Any way I went out to dinner last night at a barbecue restaurant and I put half of the food immediately into a to go box. I ate some of it with extra veggies for lunch. I will probably eat the other half for lunch tomorrow. My sister was teasing me all weekend because we went to the grocery store and she picked up some cereal and the first thing out of her mouth was DONT LOOK AT THE NUTRTION LABEL I DONT WANT TO KNOW. This leads me to believe that I am doing pretty good.I didnt eat the best this weekend but I definitely got to work on my eating out skills. Its way easier to control what you put in your food rather than going to the restaurants, I have to keep that in mind when I eat out. Anyway, I lost weight and hopefully next week I see 264. Keep Losing I'll blog tomorrow.
The results of the buffet and the carry out hamburger and fries will be seen on the scale tomorrow. I think that I will be happy with the reuslts. Last night after my cheat meal at the carryout I went to the gym on a full stomach and walked at 2.7mph and ran at 3.7mph. I was so damn mad at myself for wanting a caving into the craving that I just upped my work out. IT FELT GREAT I could not bring myself to relax after the cheat meal I had to get to that gym. When I started exercising in January I could not run for 30seconds I was running for 1 and a half minutes alternating with walking it felt great. My endurance has improved thanks to consistency and the elliptical. Keep me in your thoughts and we will see the results on MONDAY. I have also been really happy to see the comments that are left for me and I try to do the same for you guys. MOTIVATE so that you stay MOTIVATED.Till MONDAY, HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND
I have decided to treat myself to a few perks on this journey so that I am taking care of myself inside and out. When I hit 250 pounds I will get a massage, 225 I will buy me some diamond studs, 200 another massage and when I reach 100lbs gone total I am going on a trip. DOnt know where but I will inform you when I get to 175. Treat yourself without food that is also a part of changing my lifestyle. Until tomorrow, Stay motivated.
I weighed myself this morning and I am .8 pounds heavier. I am not sure if this is from the buffet, or because I moved the damn scale. So I will work hard until my weigh in on Saturday and hopefully I see a loss.Patience is a big part of this weight loss thing. I want results immediately it felt like I got fat overnight why cant I lose overnight. REALIZATION if losing weight was easy or fun we'd all have the bodies of our dreams. Anywhoo, I will not dwell I just needed to vent a bit. I did not go to the gym last night but I walked home(2miles). I am going tonight and watch American Idol on the Elliptical. I need to work up to 45 minutes consistently, I have been doing 30 during the week and 45 on weekends. Later
I went to a buffet yesterday for dinner. I wasnt terrible I stayed away from the rice and the noodles. I had my share of crab, pepper steak and mongolian pork. I will be busting my arse in the gym tonight to ensure that I lose 2 lbs. It is truly regrettable but this wont stop me from continuing on the journey. Slips ups are not the end of the world just a reminder that we are human. Someone reminded me that we are searching for CONSISTENCY not PERFECTION Until Tomorrow!!
Well, I weighed in on Saturday and I weighed (DRUM ROLL PLEASE) 269.4 pounds. I was ECSTATIC. I tend to lose focus when I am being successful and let myself slip, luckily blogging daily and reading you guys blogs is actually helping me to stay focused to some extent. The other half of the focus has to come from me. I am feeling pretty good about myself I even had pizza for lunch but i cut it in half and had 2 servings of broccoli with it. SEE, change can be a habit. Anywhoo, I am going to the gym tonight to sweat it out. Keep it moving and I will blog to you tomorrow.
Tomorrow is wieifgh in day, I have stayed to my exercise schedule even improvising. I am so proud. I have had troubles getting into my guym because of my pass card but Isaid this will not stop my exercise. So i dedcided to walk 2 miles home after work. INGENIOUS! I did this for the past two days and went to the gym last night and did 20 minutes on the elliptical. I think that I will do it again tonight. Hopefully the gym will be open. I pray that this weigh in puts me in the 260's. Last night I weighed in at 269.8 that's a good thing. I will blog on Monday. Have a Great Weekend and stay motivated.
Today, I was offered a Dove Ice cream bar and I turned that bad boy down no regrets. HELL YEAH saved 260 calories and 17 grams of fat. As soon as I saw the nutrition information I had no other thought but, that is not going in my mouth. Our company bought us luch today I had a roast beef sandwich on sourdough with artichokes and red peppers with honey mustard instead of Dijonnaise and I did not have any chips. That is two temptations turned down in a day. Hopefully that scale reflects this. I was so pressed to go to the gym last night that I asked my neighbor to let me in. Hopefully, they get my after hours card fixed pretty soon so that i can get in on my own. I am continuing to fight the good fight so I can't complain. Until tomorrow
I have of course been looking at other people blogs and enjoying them. Anyway, I can tell you that I am a 26 year old Sagittaruis and an overall happy person. Happiness has come to me gradually as I have gotten older because I not only know I understand that I create my own happiness. Like anyone else I get moments when things that I can't control irritate me but I have accepted that I am going to control how irritated I get and for how long. That is just the way it is and the way it has to be because honestly I am happier with this mind set. I made the choice to start losing weight again and make a permanent lifestyle change due in part to that fact that like lots of you out there I was a heavy child that turned into an obese adult. I was 10 years old under 5 feet tall and weighing 130 lbs. Losing weight has always been a battle between my good mind and my bad mind.If you can't tell the bad mind has been whooping the good one. I came to a conclusion at the end of last year that I was not happy with my weight and I needed to make a change. I have these PHYSICAL STANDARDS that I have for men (HELL who doesn't) and I looked at myself and asked if I were a man would I date me? The answer was NO! A bit of a shock considering I am cute, funny and got enough BOOTY to make Beyonce jealousOKAY!!!
So,I started to clean up my eating habits and my lifestyle. Basically, I want to be the best me that I can be so the things that I want out of life be it a man, money, kids or a different type of job are attainable.We live in a time that because of the things that we hear and see on a daily basis we ourselves judge and are judged on appearance. It's sad but true.So I am on a mission to be the best me that I can be. Change what I can change on my own and get help with the things that I can't change by myself. Until tomorrow
Well, its Monday you guessed it and I now weigh 270.4 lbs, after this great weigh in Saturday morning I weighed myself this morning and I weigh 271(no worries) I got a visit from TOM so there is the difference. I feel pretty good I just reached my mini mini goal of 270 now I am reaching for 250. Pray for me. I am working hard to become a healthier happier individual. It might sound crazy but I can actually feel myself changing in more than weight it is spiritual also and I am accepting it.
My new plan for working out has been held up not by myself but by my rental office, it seems that they access card that I received to get into the gym after hours has a glitch and it wont be fixed until tomorrow at the latest hopefully. Any way I exercised Friday and Saturday and I am using Sunday and Monday as the days off so I will be pushing it for 6 days straight. It will pay off. Have a Great Day for now.
