Tough day
okay, so here is a quick update since the last time I blogged.
I went home for my birthday (about 4.5 days) and ate everything and then some. I ate cake, mexican food, ice cream, pizza, etc... Welp, as a result I gained 6 lbs. YUP... it's possible! I felt really bad about it so when I came home, I decided to get right into it!
I ordered a few protein meal packets offline just to make it easier for myself to follow a healthy eating diet. I have been eating these packets for 7 days now and have lost 8 lbs! It puts me right under what I was my last weigh in (barely).
It has been going pretty well, except for today! I find myself perusing pinterest food items and salivating!!! I am trying to stay strong today, but it is really difficult. I usually get my lunch here at work around 12... but today I have been running around and it is now 1pm and I have yet ot be given a lunch break... this sucks!!!
I admit I have a really negative attitude right now, but gimme a pass :)
hopefully I get al unch break around 2...fingers crossed!.
When I weighed in today I was at 166.
If you're reading this, thanks!

Is this the new me?
I have been very scared to discuss me weight loss with people because secretly, I am scared that I will sabatoge myself and be forced to be embarassed when I gain all of the weight back.
I decided today that I was going to own the weight I have lost so far. I am convincing myself that this is the NEW ME. I refuse to go back to 230 lbs (my heaviest).
After the weigh in today, I weighed 171 lbs. ..... Wow, I don't remember the last time that I was able to say that. I went to renew my license over the weekend. It felt really good to say my weight! I felt free and .. .well, not embarassed. Although I am not to my ultimate goal, I am making progress. I did want to lie and subtract 5 lbs, but I figured it will be that much sweeter the next time I update/renew.
I turn 26 really soon, which makes me excited that I can enjoy my birthday and enjoy friends while being comfortable in my own skin. I made a goal to lose 10 lbs by my birthday. I am at -5 so far... I can sooo reach that goal!.
I have been really enjoying those really big pink grapefruits lately! Which is a good thing because I have half for breakfast and a half for a pre bed time snack.
Anyways, if you are reading this.. THANKS!

here we go again!
I guess once I got a taste of all the good yummy food that I ate over spring break, It was really hard for me to stop!!! On Friday I had 3 margaritas and cheesy-yummy Mexican food--- It didn't get any better over the weekend! I also ate pizza, ice cream, and candy.
On Sunday I felt gross, so I decided to get back on track and "do better". I went to a Zumba class at the gym. The whole first 20 minutes I was pouting lol. I was half-assing all of the moves and just thinking how dumb everything was... lol! ADULT TANTRUM ANYBODY?!?!? Then I realized how ridiculous I was, so I decided since I was there I was going to work as hard as I can and smile!
Of course, I ended up having a great time! Today was my weigh in:
Start weight 200lbs
Today's weigh in: 174!
I am feeling better and ready to do this!
If you're reading, thanks!

weigh in day
It has been so long since I wrote because I went to visit my fiance in Dubai. He was slightly surprised with how much weight I had lost. It was great!!! I told myself to enjoy everything I wanted while I was gone!! and I sure did!
I ate everything that I wanted, but tried to have some sort of moderation. I did not even want to weigh myself when I got back because I even felt heavier. I have instances when I can gaine 10 lbs in 10 days..... so... I was scared to step on the scale.
When I got back four days ago and weighed myself, I weighed 4 lbs more that I did when I left. I wasn't too discouraged because I figured that I would have gained more. Four pounds is well worth the fun I had and amazing cuisine I tasted. It was weigh in today for the biggest loser at work.. Drum roll please... I was right back to where I was when I left. It was nice not to have to report a gain ha!
Anyways, If you have the chance to visit Dubai... DO!!!!

Thanks!

slow progress
Today was the first time that I was not really skipping to the scales to weigh-in. I knew that I havent really lost as much as I wanted to lose. I have been so busy lately preparing for my spring break vacation that I havent been able to work out!!!
I only lost 1.5 pounds--- I guess it's better than gaining. I have been pretty lazy with trying to cook lately. My lunch today: A can of tuna and kale.... it was not as bad as it sounds :)
I now weigh 176... I started at 200 so I shouldn't complain! I was really hoping to be down to 170 by my trip, but now it is only 3 days away... not likely! I hope to get back on track soon!
Today one of my students commented on the fact that my belly is now smaller than it used to be, which isnt good because that means I wont get a baby in there.... lol awww kiddos!

weigh in
Today at weigh in, it was pretty much what I expected. I lost a few pounds, so that was nice! I am going to see my fiance in about 10 days... He hasn't seen my since 30 lbs ago! I hope he notices--- I'm trying to lose as much as I can until then!!!
I weighed 177.5 this time. compared to 182.5 a week ago. I am really excited about the weight loss. Around this time I usually somehow convince myself I can eat whatever I want and forget my diet....sabatoge lol! So, I will just a keep on trucking and keep eating right!
Wish me luck!

Post weigh-in
Okay so I weighed in a couple days ago. I just forgot to blog :(
Anyways, I did lose 2.5 lbs since last week, I was a little let down because I expected it to be more.... I think I am definitely hitting a plateau.
I could use some tips to keep the weight loss going. Right now I work out at least once everyday and have been eating pretty well. I am trying to wait to have a cheat day until I at least meet my mini goal. I am about 7lbs away from that mini goal.
On another note, I booked my plane ticket to visit my fiance over spring break. I haven't seen him in almost a year, so I am definitely more motivated to lose that extra 7-10 lbs before I do!!!
Advice?

weigh in
Okay,
We weighed in for biggest loser on Tuesday. Last weigh in, I weighed 191, this time I weight 185. I am still not in first place though. The apple day that I did the day before totally helped. I do find myself really hungry lately. I don't really make it a habit to keep snacks in the house, so it's been hard. I usually find myself drinking a ton of tea and going to bed early.
I have a three day weekend ahead of me. These are the times where it is really difficult to stick with healthy eating habits. Especialyl since I am thinking of visiting family.
Wish me luck!!!

Apple day :(
I am pretty sure that I have hit a plateau. I heard a good way to deal with them is do an apple day... so, that's what I am doing.
So far I have had three apples today, I will have three more throughout the day. Tomorrow is the weigh in for biggest loser so I hope this helps.
I really do love apples, so it's not as hard as I thought it would be.
I was kind of upset that I worked out this weekend and ate really well, but did not see any results.
I will let you know what happens after tomorrow's weigh in!

It's Friday!!!
My diet is going well! Working out has been going even better! It is always more motivating to do those things when you are actually losing weight.
Tonight a friend of mine is having a birthday dinner, but I heard they have an amazing salad bar--- which i am SOOO looking forward to.
My fiance and I got a chance to talk on the phone and we are planning to see eachother in April... which is even more motivation.
I feel really good, energy and all! I took a "mental health" day yesterday from work, and boy was it refreshing!!! Anyways, last time I weighed myself I weighed 191 lbs.... so I'm looking forward to what I weight on Tuesday. I am hoping to weigh 187.
If you're reading this, thanks!
