I didn't fall off the wagon. Last night I JUMPED!! =(

What tha hell is wrong with me. Yesterday marked 14 days. I was excited, proud, anxious . . . did I mention excited?! lol And then something happened. I got on the scale first thing in the morning as usual and no shift. But I still stuck to my program all day, but decided after 6 days straight at the gym I was taking a day off. I guess just being at home and thinking about stuff got me in this horrible place because I just started eating and didn't care that I was over my calories. I ate about 900 calories of bad stuff so today when I got on the scale I saw a change finally, but wasn't a good one. I gained 2 lbs. And I feel horrible. Today really started off rough. I think I took it out on my daughter. She couldn't "find" her shoes and I yelled at her and she's extremely sensitive so of course she cried and I was almost late for work, but I'm here blogging and it's very theraputic.

I'm still in it to win it. I jumped off the wagon for a night but I'm jumping right back on. I would have loved to say I lost 14 lbs. the first 2 wks, but 12 lbs. isn't so bad. Happy Friday everyone. And remember it's okay to fall (or in my case JUMP) off the wagon. Just make sure you use it as a learning experience and get back on the wagon. =)

Maybe I shouldn't "weigh" EVERY day!

Okay so I'm over weighing myself. I'm doing everything right. Been to the gym 5 days in a row straight and eating right. I give up! (not on eating right and exercising, just weight every darn day lol)

Thats my quick rant. Today will be a good day. Gonna take a few days off. Wanna see a change next time I get on the scale for once. Happy Hump Day "losers" lol =)

Day 11. No budge on the scale still. =(

Today was a good day despite not seeing even the slightest budge on the scale. Almost didn't go to the gym today but I thought I would to see if maybe if I change up on the type of cardio I do the scale may move in my favor tomorrow morning (wishiful thinking).
 
Other than that, I ate within my calorie allowance, drunk tons of water and worked out for about 45 mins today. I'm still proud of myself because I am 3 days away from being 14 days STRONG on my healthy lifestyle change. And for 2 weeks 19lbs. down thus far is not bad at all. I'm getting in the "zone". Nite =)

Week 2 Goals

It's midnight and I should be asleep. But just wanted to blog real quick. I'm feeling better than I have all week and I went to the gym tonight and plan to go first thing tomorrow morning since I am child free for the morning. I didn't see the scale shift this morning and hoping I'll see a change tomorrow. Day 10 and I'm still going strong and motivated. I'm learning a lot about myself. Last night and tonight I realized that I'm really lonely. Not to sound dramatic but it was an "aha moment" for me because I think normally I'd eat late, fast food, snacks, watch tv go to bed and not even realize that I'm actually eating so much because I'm alone (unhappily) lol . . . so I guess I haven't "felt" it like I feel it now. It's good in a way because I put myself in this situation. I kinda pushed people out of my lives. Don't ever want to go anywhere due to being unhappy with myself and not wanting to be the biggest one of the "bunch" but I'm so tired of that. I will live again and take the necessary steps to get back out there and let my hair down so to speak.
 
Tired of rambling. Off to bed. Please God let me see a change on that scale when I wake up! lol Nite =)

Day 7. Still sick. Losing but will it come back??!!

Still have the flu, and I'm losing like crazy since I haven't been eating still. 20 lbs. since last wk. That's just crazy. Unbelievable. I think I'm going to attempt to excercise today and drink at least 8 glasses of water. Hopefully my body won't reject it. I may gain some weight back but hopefully not much.
 
I'm so ready to get back in the gym. Hopefully soon. My brithday is in 4 more wks. I have some cute jeans (size 18) that I want to be able to wear. I can kinda fit them now but they are way too tight. I know I'll be able to wear them in 4 wks. eating right and working out at the gym. I've been putting off doing crunches at night but I need to start. My stomach is my worst area. No pain no gain I guess. I'm gonna get on it. Happy weight loss! =)

Sick so can't workout but still losing

I have been sick for the last 2 days, but I keep losing. I think it's just because I haven't eaten much and Im losing a lot of liquids. Threw up yesterday so yeah that's that.
 
As soon as I feel normal again I'm back at the gym. Sucks bcuz even though I don't feel good a part of me is afraid it will be hard to go back to the gym because I haven't been in the last few days. I'm going no matter what once I'm not sick though. No ifs ands or buts!

It almost seems too "easy" right now. I'm scared! lol

Okay so day 4 is winding down. I'm 5 lbs. down which I can pretty much attribute to water weight and what not. Which is fine by me. It's almost too easy now. I'm eating right, packed my brkfst/lunch for work today, worked out, and I feel good. Hope this isn't the "calm" before the "storm" lol . . . I noticed that the weekdays are a lil' easier to stick to then the wknd. I guess because I'm busy and have set times to eat. At home it's like WAY too much temptation especially if I'm out. But I just gotta plan ahead.
 
I also read in someone else's blog that they know it's working because they are hungry in the morning. I feel the same way. Before I woke up full from the late night dinner I had. lol That's all that's on my mind tonight. Til' manana. =)

Do it anyway- Day 3, 3 lbs down! =)

Sooooo I got on the scale this morning and saw the first loss of the yr. 3 whole pounds. So that brought a smile on my face. Things are going well so far as they always do in the very beginning. Honestly for me, it gets rough after 2 weeks. Once I make it past the first 14 days I'm going to give my self a pat on the back bcuz that's the first sign that I'm actually staying committed.
 
Today's "theme" in my book is to "Do it anyway". Don't feel like eating right? going to the gym? etc? . . . who cares. Do it anyway! It's the only way it's going to work. We have to do things we don't want to do because in the long run it is more beneficial to us.
 
I had a good breakfast today. English muffin, turkey bacon and egg with a bananna. And 1.5 liters of water that is just about done. Going to the gym in a few. Just wanted to get this post in real quick. A new wk. begins today. Let's make it a good one. =)

1st obstacle of the yr . . . Chuckee Cheese!! lol =(

Okay so it's Day 2 and I'm feeling great. I went to the gym today for the first time in what seems like forever and as hard as it was to get up and out the door. Once I was there and "in the groove" I actually felt good! Now don't get me wrong, I was out of breath, struggling for the entire hour that I was there, but I felt so proud. Because I've done it before and I know the hardest part is going to the gym for the first time. It's gonna be hard the 2nd and 3rd too but eventually it'll become routine.
 
Now on to more important things. My first challenge of the yr. is none other than Chuck E Cheese! Going to a bday party today and I'm like so not looking forward to having to fight back urges of eating pizza! The pizza is nothing special but it's definitely good, and I can prob eat a whole pan myself. But luckily I won't be doing that. lol I'm not gonna let those 600 calories I burned this morning be in vain. So I've decided that I am taking a sandwich and carrots and grapes as well as a water bottle (basically packing a lunch so to speak). I'm allowing myself to have a bite of pizza and hopefully that satisfies the craving to just taste it.
 
That's it for now. Looking forward to tackle day 3 tomorrow. I'm trying to blog every day. So far no weight loss, but I know it's just day 2. I'm reading this book that I absolutely love. It's called "100 days of weight loss" and day 2's theme talked about being interted vs. committed. When you are "interested" in weight loss you give up farely easily when things go wrong. When you are "committed" you are going to keep going no matter what. So I encourage anyone reading this to make the vow to stay committed. We can do it. Will we fall off the wagon? of course? But we can get back on tha darn thing and keep it pushing and reach our goals. Til tomorrow. =)

It's time to stop bs ing

Man, I've looked forward to and dreaded today for quite a while. Play time is over, and it's time to get busy. I've gone up and down. Down and up but it's time to get my ish togetha. lol
 
My birthday is in a month and I'm not going to try to have any unrealistic goals to reach by then. I'm going to do my best to get on track and stay on track. I'm writing down what I eat, going to the gym at least 3 times a wk. Water water water and more water . . . and going to look to these blogs and writing of my own to help me stay motivated and have a clear mind. I'm also reading 100 days of weight loss. I started it before and I loved it. It's like daily tips and motivation as well as writing excercises to guide you for the first 100 days of whatever program you are on. Love it.
 
Good luck to all of you. We're in this together. It's a tough journey but we can do it! =)
 
oh I'm also starting Kaiser's pre surgery classes in February. I think I'm going to just do the "sleeve" procedure.
 
Happy New Year!
