been doing this blog off and on for over a year now. I am happy to say that I have maintained my weight loss and healthy lifestyle. Ive never been so strong and fit in my life, I love it and wouldnt trade it for all the money in the world. I have AB DEFINITION!!!! its taken 26 years, but i can finally say, I love my body :)
so i weighed myself this morn and was down to 116...havent been this small since i was 17...insane!!! I do feel like this is the perfect weight and i dont want to lose any more. I just hope i can maintain :)
one year ago i started my weight loss journey. happy to say i have lost 30 pounds and kept it off for the past 6 months. I hope to keep up my healthy habits in 2012 and continue to progress athletically. Here's to a year of good health!
I started school and a new job a few weeks ago and things have been incredibly hectic! I can't believe its already October...though its not hard to believe since the weather has turned for the worst. I weighed myself this morning and happy to report i am 120.6 pounds....still floating right around my goal weight. I am hoping that maintaining this weight until the summer (at that point 1 year since the majority of my weight was lost) will allow me to stabalize and maintain this for the long term....
Since I have less time to work out now, I try to do some form of cardio for 30 minutes a day, on top of light lifting and some yoga in the evenings. Still working on the abs...no lower definition yet...man its hard to get results there. Its frustrating because im 17% body fat- pretty low for a female. Despite that, I still have a soft tummy and cellulite :( I guess my genetics are fighting hard against my workouts. Maybe I will just have to live with a soft tummy, and thighs and butt that look out of shape, I guess there are worse things...it's just frustrating because I am in fact in very good shape, but still look fat next to some people. oh well...
I started my weight loss journey back in January, and 8 months later, I am happy o say I have reached my goal weight of 120 pounds! Last year around this time, I was over 150 pounds; miserable, feeling ugly inside and out. Worse of all, my blood pressure was high and I was tired and out of breath from doing simple activities like walking up hills..all because I was carrying around excess weight.
So, after making some serious resolutions about my weight, it began to slowly come off. I didn't update this blog as often I wanted to throughout the journey, but I do hope that people read and see that the hard work truly pays off, is well worth it, and attainable by anyone at ANY weight. It may not happen overnight (took me nearly a year to lose the full 30 pounds, very slow!), but it happens with patience, will power, and dedication. My whole mindset about my body and nutrition has changed for the better. I realized the importance of eating right and exercising, and I intend to never go back to where I was. I wish you all the best in your weight loss journeys. I will keep posting to this blog, as I feel it is a great motivator, and will keep me in check. Cheers!
had a long and arduous work out with my trainer today...almost cancelled due to awful menstrual cramps this morn, but figured that is a lame excuse not to work out...ive been doing alot of lifting and cardio conditioning lately to try to break past the 125 lb plateau ive sadly hit. why are the last 10 pounds are always the absolute hardest!?!?!! Been trying to up the exercise because its too difficult for me to restrict food...never really was into counting calories, but lately ive been eating more than usual...i get SO hungry after lifting that i come home and just stuff my face. somehow i havent gained any...but its not helping the weight loss. wish i could take a pill to just drop the last 10. lol.
i am SO excited, i just tried on a pair of jeans from i cant even remember how many years ago, and they FIT...loosely! size 27, aka size 4. i havent been this small since i was a teenager. I literally stood in front of the mirror in disbelief for a few minutes. it feels so great to finally feel better about my body and health. i feel fit and strong, my body fat is down to 18%, and i am continuing to build lean muscle. praying that by the end of summer I will have ab definition. its been a long road, but well worth it. im so excited to be going back to school for nutrition and dietetics in the fall. the weight loss has inspired me to help others and raise awareness about obesity. I just feel so inspired to continue eating well, working out, and enjoying looking good in clothes again. I never wait to be heavy again, i look at old pics of myself and kind of want to vomit. its embarrassing that i let myself go at such a young age. but i guess thats all in the past, so i shall not dwell. Happy Friday :) :)
So i just turned 25 this week and my goal (set back in January) was to get down to 120 pounds by my birthday. sadly, i am 5 pounds off...but i am still trying to look on the bright side and be happy with the results I have managed to attain. Ive lost about 25 pounds in the past 5 months, down to 125 from 150, from size 10 to 6. I feel so much stronger and healthier, and i know i look so much better than i did before...
now that the weather is turning for the better (FINALLY!!! THE NORTHEAST HAD THE WORST WINTER) I am really trying to step up the working out for bikini season. I am pretty high spirited with the 25 lb weight loss thus far, but still hate my abs and cant wear a 2 piece if my life depended on it.
