Well… It has been a while since I have wrote anything on this blog…..
Of course the holidays and then my month long trip traveling around central america was distracting haha.
I have been back a month though. A month of not exercising, not eating right, and therefore I have gained weight.
Surprisingly enough, I lost a little [...]

The winds started today. Subtle. Slowly gaining strength with each minute. Dead leaves and brush dance with the unpredicted gusts like a desert snow. I love this time of year. The new chill in the air brings relief to the humid warmth of summer. The wind is natures way of saying, change is coming.

20 pounds in 35 days. Wow. I am so unbelievably proud of myself.
I know I have a long way to go. . . But it’s these little goals that keep me going.
I am picking up my degree from the [...]

I am up a couple pounds even though I have been exercising and dieting.
I am also premenstrual. And of course I am probably holding onto some water weight because of that.
But it’s discouraging.
You work out hard. Thinking you are sweating your fat away, and you end up gaining weight.
This gain along with the pms causing irritability, [...]

It’s hard for me to say that one of the main reasons I gain and lose weight is to impress or piss-off my family. But it’s true. This is one of the main reasons I am in therapy- to learn what keeps me doing this for myself. And only myself.
Growing up, I matured a lot [...]

I know I didn’t mention it before, but I was stuck at 270.2 for approx. 5 days. It was amazing, because all of my energy in each work out this week went toward that stubborn pound, instead of my usual mantras that were about my big vacation coming up, etc.
So I learned the power of [...]

So… I weighed myself again this morning and nada. Not even .1 of a pound difference.
I’m not crazy- i don’t expect to lose one pound a day…but I would like to be losing between .2-.6 of a pound daily.
I am doing everything right in terms of diet and exercise. Plateaus can be so so so [...]

Losing weight can be a very lonely process and I am really happy to have found 3fatchicks.com.
Hopefully, doing this blog and reading the forums will help with my sanity as I go through the next [...]
