I lost 75 lbs without exercise. (I did exercise for the 1st 11 days in December, but I didn't lose any weight) The weight isn't coming off like it was before. I really need to start working out. My New Years resolution is to exercise, but I haven't started yet. I'm really lazy!

If I can give you ANY advice...don't push yourself too hard. They say it takes a month for habits to change, so if you commit to doing SOMETHING everyday for a month, it will become a part of your routine. I always make the mistake of working out really hard at first and burning myself out... boooo
I was doing the 30 day shred and it was good. Then I got sick and slacked off. Exercise just isn't one of my favorite things, but I know I need to do it.
...just weighed in: 196 lbs. Grant it, it is the end of the day, however its been a while since i have weighed myself and i just had to be sure i was actually in the 190's. deep down i knew i would be, but i was really hoping it would be in the lower part...-sigh- this week has been the start of a new healthier me. i haven't done much, just stopped drinking soda/diet soda and fast food and just *really trying* to make small but healthier decisions (like not finishing the HUGE delicious chicken sandiwich I happen to be devouring). I haven't really exercised any this week, been quite lazy since i have had the week off but i'm really trying to persuade myself to drive over to my dad's and use his treadmill like 3x times a week. its just so hard...and he lives kinda far away. bah! making excuses already.
This morning I was 194.2...I FINALLY managed to drop all that water weight from before new years...thats the exact weight I was before my party...lol..
ok 190-ers! I only weigh in once a week (Monday mornings) and I am REALLY hoping to be out of the 190's. Wish me luck!!! AND good luck to you all, too!!!
Guess what? After what seemed like 100 years in the 190's(in reality only about 7 weeks) Today the scale read 187! Yay! So I'm off to the 180's thread. Good luck everyone!
Mikayla- Thanks girl! My official weigh in was 190....stupid TOM.....but!!! that just means that next week might just be even better. I'm working my big ol' butt off, so keep those fingers crossed! I'm keeping positive.
zarra - Next weigh in will be so much better, I feel it. Just keep working hard and drink lots of water to get rid of any bloating.
Mikayla - Congrats! See you over there tomorrow hopefully...
Tomorrow is my weigh in day that counts. I've been everything from 191 to 186 this week. I was 190 this morning so we'll see... And I ate like crap today. Maybe I'll just drink a ton of water and that'll make me drop something by then. Cross your fingers for me that I dropped below the mark and am in the 180 club tomorrow morning!
Alright so trying to make healthier food choices has really paid off! I am down 4 pounds from last week! That puts me at 192lbs. So close to the 180's! ; D Also last night I walked in AND out of work. Put together thats like 30 minutes of some brisk walking- first time I have exercised in a very long time. I also have not ate any fast food or have had any soda or diet soda. Just tea, water, tonic water. Boy do I feel a difference in my energy levels and my motivation on healthy living. I just hope this feeling doesn't go away. -scared!- I am hopeful though and I feel strong! Good luck everyone! Be strong and make better choices with each time you eat! one step at a time...apparently thats all it takes.
Oh my goodness, the scale just said 193.3! That's the lowest I've been yet! Talk about motivation to start sticking to plan again...I WANT OUT of the 190s like...RIGHT NOW! lol
and now it's 193.6...and I can't figure out why...
the is the FIRST TIME I've stepped on the scale expecting a loss, and have gotten a gain. I worked out, I ate right, stayed within my points, drank only water...why in the world would I have a .3 lbs gain? I don't understand...
I was so expecting to have lost weight...I thought yesterday was an amazing day...and ultimately I'm so freaking frustrated it's not even funny...and I don't know if I'm going to keep working out. If it's going to make me gain, why should I do it?...
EDIT: lol, I realized I hadn't gone to the restroom yet ( i ALWAYS do before I weigh) so I did it again and it said 192.9....I'm happy with that, it's not an unexpected gain.....I'm out of the 193s and onto the 192s...lol. I still feel like I would have had a bigger loss without exercising...but ehh, maybe I'll keep it up a little bit longer and see what it does..
