http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina One girl's 62 pound weight loss journey...One pound at a time! Sun, 14 Mar 2010 18:36:20 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en I am the yoyo QUEEN. Cannot believe i'm basically back to where I started. Uugh. Stepped on the scale just now and am at 179.8.  Better than yesterday, although it is after noon and I haven't eaten yet. Took a rest day yesterday and my hips feel 100% again. I'm ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2010/03/14/same-sh-different-day/ Did my 3rd run yesterday and my hip actually wasn't killing me this time. I think it was just muscle tightness. My run was pretty pathetic- I only ran about 1/2 the time (or maybe less...). I'm guessing the fact that I didn't eat before going didn't help matters either. ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2010/03/13/pushing-through/ Well, I did it. I ran again. 10 minute run, 1 minute walk. X3. Then a 5 min cool down. I did have to do a power walk about 1/2 way thorough my 3rd set because my hip was KILLING me, but at least I finished it.  I weighed in ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2010/03/11/hip-pain-day-2/ Well, I finally got up off my ass and did something. I got myself a running buddy (2 different ones, actually) and I went for a 30 minute run/walk (but mostly run) yesterday. Dear GOD my hips are killing me. I mapped it out on map-my-run, and I think we ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2010/03/11/one-step-in-the-right-direction/ It's been so long since I've updated this...I've been doing really poorly and frankly i've been ashamed to document my failures. I've been struggling with depression and general unhappiness with my circumstances, as well as some new health issues, all of which has had a pretty negative effect on my ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2010/03/09/hangs-head-in-shame/ Yikes. I just stepped on the scale as I usually do first thing in the morning. I'm usually somewhere around 171, and today I'm at 174!! This is not good. I went out for dinner last night and ate a WHOLE PIZZA. I mean, it was one of those thin crust things ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2009/11/29/eaters-remorse/ 171.2 lbs. Meh. I stayed the same.  Oh well. I tend to do this. I will have a few decent losses, then my losses slow to somethign like 0.4, or I just stay the same. The good news is that I have accepted that this is what my body does, and ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2009/11/25/weigh-in-week-11/ When purchasing my jump rope, I was torn between the fabric rope and the plastic rope.  I opted for the fabric (not really sure why)...HUGE mistake! It is terrible! i'm a pretty good jump-roper, and it keeps getting caught on my running shoes. Sigh. I'll make use of it until ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2009/11/21/ghetto-jump-rope/ I recently bought a jump rope.  I also recently started running. I was then told my my physio that my back wasn't strong enough to be running. I'm really confused because my surgeon told me I should do anything and everything to gain strength. He said there's really nothing I ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2009/11/20/holding-myself-accountable/ Down another 0.6 this week! Current weight: 171.2 2.2 lbs to 10%, and 46.2 to goal. My goal for this week is to get back into my exercise regimen.  I want to work out at least 4 times this week. So close to my 10%- that should be motivation enough! Update: Okay, i just spent ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/primaballerina/2009/11/19/weigh-in-week-10-2/
