i know I just recently got to 198, so I can’t really complain about anything, but, I know I’m not really going to lose much/any weight this week. I know I haven’t been trying as hard as I could, or using as much discipline etc, or even doing AS hard of workouts as I could be. I’m just bummed cuz I’m pretty sure I wont reach my grad goal. But, I’m really going to try to focus on my food from this point forward and really try to eliminate carbs etc. We’ll see how it goes. I so badly want to lose weight. Also, perhaps after my weigh-in tomorrow I will raise my cal limit from 1200-1400 to 1300-1500, ideally with not many or any carbs, and maybe that will help with something. Also, I’m ordering PB2 today and SO excited. Also, I just hope I’m 198 or under tomorrow so I can go ahead and order my ipod! I want/need it SO badly!

Food for today:

Breakfast: 1/2 banana (55), yogurt (70)-125

lunch: Bowl of beef noodle soup (80), 1 hard boiled egg white (17), 1 turkey hot dog (135), some tofu (45), salad (80), some watermelon grapes and strawberries (45), frozen yoguret (50)-452

Snack: 8 almonds (69)

Dinner: again, dinner was at a meeting where i had no options, it was pizza and cesar salads. i know i could have picked eating only cesar, but i didnt, cuz recently I have no self control, so: tiny bit of cesar salad (100), 1 piece of pepperoni pizza (325), 1 piece of cheese pizza (275), chips a hoy cookies (140)-700

Snacks: 1 small twizzler (25), 1 piece of dove milk chocolate (44), small pack of reese’s pieces (90)-159 –>ugh, of course I had to eat this, after the horrible dinner I had, great.

Cals so far: 1505–>done. ugh, my food at the beginning of the day was so on plan, and then it veered so terribly. my self control is non exist ugh. and of course, the day before weigh in day…
It’s late and I’m tired. I’m still fighting with myself about working out, but seeing my cals, I’m pretty sure the workout will win.  My workout won and I’m so happy I went to the gym, even though it was so late!

Workout: 66 min elliptical, 20 min treadmill.  I dont know if my weigh in will be good or great tomorrow, but this workout certainly made me feel much better physically and mentally.  yay

must make a change. im not losing weight. i already know i wont reach my goal. raise my limits from 1300-1500, will that help?

hey there girl!

1300 calories doesn’t seem like much to me. But, on the other hand, it can be a lot of food if you make wise choices. Veggies, some fruit, lean protein and dairy. And don’t forget a ‘few’ whole grains after a work out cause your body needs them and a small amount of protein for repairs! I think you do really good workouts already, by what you’re writing, and to me it looks like you just getting a little sidetracked food wise. That’s all…no problemo! Forget about grad goal, the pressure of it is causing you to choke, so let it go and concentrate on becoming a healthy chick! Good luck, I’m here for ya!
