Well I haven't been posting for a while as my weight has stalled and i'm getting fustrated!! I'm finally back to a "true" 201lbs, i haven't been putting in my gains as I did not really see a point! I am sticking to my diet, actually I'm going to go back to Phase 1 as apparently, i'm not yet ready to be able to eat carbs without my body slurping them up and adding them to my ass!! I had freinds over last night and 3 of us are on the South Beach and two more are thinking about it. It sure makes it easier when we are all on board so then I can serve "healthy" snacks instead of chips and salsa and stuff. The biggest problem i'm finding is when I go out for the day, there is really nothing you can eat, aside from going in a drive-thru that serves GOOD salads, but nothing you can drive and eat at the same time. I carry nuts with me at all times, in case I need a snack, but the rest of it is hard. Oh well.. carry on the good fight eh?
I'm not losing ANYTHING right now...I'm feeling a bit fustrated!! I'm to go out with my girl posse tonight and i'm supposed to not drink beer or coolers, only Vodka with pomegranete juice.. which is failry expensive, but I keep thinking what a "cheap" drink would taste like..Mmmmm.. the other option is to stay home which I don't want to do....Oh well, guess I should do some laundry and be prepared just in case I do go. I going to go to town and make a new recipe for dinner, sounds nummy, just can't get the gumtion up to get off the couch!!
So I wnet to the gym again last night.... and this morning...nothing!! Yah I know I lost inches.. but I want to see some results DAMMIT!! I have another job interview today.. but I'm still waiting back from another job that I REALLY want.. they still haven't made a descion yet... so I guesss I have to go do this interview today in case I dont' get the dream job...* sigh* oh well back to the gym again tonight.. I EVEN RAN LAST NIGHT!!! TWICE!!
I hate it when I make the effort to go and work out the night before and I'm still not down a lb!! Just one lousy little lb would make a difference ( actually 2lbs would be even better then I would be out of 200 and into 100 and something!!) Okay, so I am down in my inches, but my clothes don't feel different.. I am thinking i'm just not very good and measumering myself with the tape measure!!
I know I should'nt be so upset about the "only" one lbs loss... but I figured I would be down more by this time.... I just hate it when I stick to my diet, exercise.. and STILL only lose a POUND!! When I was doing Herbal Magic I was losing between 1- 4 lbs a week!! ( of course that cost me about $3000.00 to lose 50 lbs!! Don't have that kind of money any more....) Oh well plodding ever downward.. I am thinking about going out with the girls for a drink tonight.... its just extra money I don't have, and extra calories!! Hmmmm.... I will see which way the wind blows me...
I haven't lost any weight in , like, a week now... Aunt Flo is visiting and I know that sometimes affects it, but still... I would have thought with my diet right on track and exercisieng alot this week, I would have at least budged a little..
SO I went to school yesterday, and then stoped by my gym after for a nice long workout...I was going to do streatches and weights and then a hour or two or cardio... so I get there and do the first two,and am finishin up wit the stationary baike, when I start taking to my old trainor. He asks where I been and I tell him I hurt my back, but am feeling better so here I am. I tell him I was thinking of joining a Yoga class cause I heard that was good for my back... and he says," there is one starting here in 5 min.!!" And introduces me to the instuctor, on the bike right beside him! Cool! Okay, so I go in there, by far the LARGEST person in there, as there are men in this class as well. Well is wasn't as I thought!! I had sweat POURING off me!! What a good workout! SO i'm hooked, every Mon and Sat. and I never had any pain or acheyness all night!! WAHOOO!!!
Well, no BAD news, did not gain, but no GOOD news either, did not lose. Still plugging along two more days till phase two starts, but I don't think i'm ready to add those "carbs" back in... oh, don't think i'm not TOTALLY missing pizza and burgers ( I SOOOO wanted to drive into town last night for a chesseburger!) but I do want to see a little more loss first...
So I just did my measurments.. and I have lost almost 2 inches off my waist!! YAHH!! 1 inch off my hips too ( gained in my arms?) Well I really feel better now!! Whew!
Well, its only 1 lb ( well, maybe two) but I ate healthy yesterday. DIdn't work out though, probably the problem. I've not been speaking to my husband for two days now, thank goodness he left for the weekend, so the place to myself!! yah!! Hmmm, do I clean up, go out, go to gym, or have some girlfriends over? Decisions ,decisions!!! Stress may be a contributer, that and flunking out on my job "test" the other day...I just KNOW the universe has something better lined up for me, just have to wait for it I guess..
