Hi all, still hovering at the 170-171 mark. Hoping this week with my parents leaving and my son back in school I will get to the gym regularly and see the 160s!
Did 40 minutes on the TM this morning. Still sick and feeling tired and weak but doing the best I can with what I got for now!
Angie wants to go for pizza and beers.....HEL-LO! not a normal request for her...a normal one would be wine and chicken marsala or maybe even margaritas and fajitas....BUT...pizza and beer!!!
What did I do to deserve this?
Wish me luck.....pizza....beer....pizzza....beer...
I've been doing awesome so far. Yesterday was my worst day with eating a huge lunch with chips (baked!!) and a diet coke! YIKES!
I've been working out every day (today I'll work out after work as I woke up late today, I caught Cella's funk!) and I feel awesome. I am not gonna lie...I'm hungry. But I'm not starving and I want this more than anything. I'm in a LDR and I refuse to see my bf til I lose 30 pounds. This is actually okay b/c we're both busy and poor so no matter what I can't see him til April or so anyway, lol.
Gary- Happy Anniversary!!! You know a little pizza and beer goes a long way. Try to hold it to just a couple of each. Slices I mean, not whole pizzas. And single beers, not cases.
Cakses- Routine is so important to me. All of Dec. I was so messed up. Glad to be back at it. You'll will see the 160's very soon.
Jen- It's one meal. Move on and don't eat as much for the rest of the day. Compensate. It's all about trade offs. You will be great. That boyfriend will be shocked.
I have been inching down daily. I hope that trend continues. I just looked at my graph on caloriecount for the months of Nov.- now. It was crazy, ugly, all over the place. I just want to see a steady downward trend. Who doesn't?
i lost track of the last one and i kniw that these 5 pounders have helped out a lot. the last time i weighed myself was on the first and i do not plan to weigh again until early to mid February. i have become to dependant on the scale once again and am going to break that habit. i am also going to drink alot more water especially in the winter and the fall months when i do not think of it because it is usally a high of about 20 degrees and that is the last thing on my mind.
I'm not sure walking for 30 mins a day on weekdays and an hour on weekends is going to help me much. I'm eating 12-1300 cals a day and I'm feeling awesome, but now I'm worried I'm doing all this for nothing. I don't even care if I lose 1 pound a week as long as I LOSE. I mean, how much can I actually lose this way?
I've lost 2 pounds so far in a week but will it last? Can I do it? Agh! Freaking out! This time it just seems so EASY. I'm bound to fail, right?
Jeanette, don't worry too much - if your current plan is working right now I say stick with it. Once the weight loss slows down, then shake things up a bit! You'll lose those 30 lbs and wow your bf before you know it. =)

Thanks, iris! I'm really lucky because he loves me how I am...I gained six pounds over the Christmas break and he said "I love you six pounds more!" which was amazingly sweet.
Thanks, mtiger! I'm just so tired at 5am to do more than 30 minutes and after work is nearly impossible for me so on weekends and days off I go all out. I can easily do an hour or two cardio if I have the time and I'm fully awake! lol
I'm still hovering at 212 myself. Been a busier gal than I expected due to our offer being accepted on the house we wanted so we've been running around like chickens with their heads cut off doing things and paperwork and rushing to meet deadlines and etc. I've been doing okay OP wise. Haven't been able to cook much because of all of this like I thought I was going to be able to. I'm sore but I think it's because I am exhausted haha.
Well-- I guess I'm doing ok. I had some medical tests done today--I hear the results tomorrow. (wish me luck!) I haven't been able to exercise because of this stuff... So-- We shall see!
I'm staying steady *sigh* Better than up, I know.. but.. Gah! "Plateaus" every 10 lbs???? Are you kidding??!?!!?!
