Im back ladies! Gosh, I just cant stay away from you all. I just lurrrvvv you way to much!
I have been tracking religiously and exercising regularly, you would all be proud!
This month I will stay honest to myself and stop making excuses.
Hello to all I hope everyone is doing fine today.....
My weight went up but I was expecting that because of the way my body is plus I ate out all day today. My husband and I went out to get our van fixed at Sears and got stuck for 2 hours in the Mall. We ended up eating at the food court. The good things was though that I got in some walking which is a plus. Then we came home for 30 mins and had to go back out pick up a kid and then head to Walmart to pick up my prescription, while I was there I ended up buying a pretty good pair of walking shoes (my old ones hurt my feet badly). Then we got dinner in town as well. Came home and did a workout on the Wii Fit Plus for 10 mins so I could add that to my final total of calories lost. Whew hopefully tomorrow won't be as hectic. More good news is that I finally got my tickers!!!
This is exactly where I was the day before. This is an example of how sensitive the body is. I can only imagine that working shift work, high stress, etc. wreaks absolute havoc on a body. But, yet, the body is resilient and bounces back. Of course, it takes it's toll over time.
Here is my recap for January and my comparison to previous months:
I reached goal in May. May to November reads the same.
November 2011: Stayed in or a little below my maintenance range
December 2011: Went on Vacation. Went 5 pounds above my maintenance range during vacation.
January 2012: Still had to deal with gain from Christmas vacation and allergic reaction. By the middle of the month, things were getting under control. Went 3.6 pounds above my maintenance range.
February 2012: Stayed within my maintenance range. Did not go above. Still dealing with an allergic reaction.
The positive for February is that I stayed within my maintenance range and did not go above. My weight did not drop to what I want it to be, though. I still have to stay focused on the positives, and that's that I stayed within my maintenance range. The more I figure out about this allergy, the more stable my weight will be (I think ).
I'm starting the month at 152.4. Yesterday's weigh in was 151.6, so I technically made my February goal of getting to 152. My next goal is 145 by April 15th (or maybe the 17th, when tax season officially ends this year). That would get me into the healthy BMI category. It's a pound a week which I would be able to do if weight loss were just math but, as we all know, not so much.
aka, did you get your blood work results?
rennie, welcome back! I hope things have settled down for you.
Good Morning everyone, I hope you all are having a good start to your day!
Stayed the same on the scale again this morning, but again I am happy with that. Throwing exercise in the mix is going to mess with the scale for a bit but WOW do I feel great!!! Originally when I was thinking about joining the gym I told myself my goal was to go 3 days a week. I wanted to set a goal I knew I could obtain but really that's just short changing myself. I need to set my goals a little higher for myself. In the past I have never ever been in the right mind set to go on this weight loss journey. The minute I missed a goal or didn't live up to my expectations I figured I was a failure and would give up immediately. I am not like that this time around, I have learned not to beat myself up over the little things, if I don't hit a goal or stray from my plan for a day, it's ok, it's called life. I get up dust myself off and keep moving forward. I am sometimes surprised with my attitude since I have always been very hard on myself, but not any more. I really love me enough to do this the right way and I know I deserve to be happy and healthy. SO... I did a little thinking last night and am truly going to set my goal to going 5 days a week to the gym. If for some reason I only make it 3 in a week no biggie I try again for 5 days the next week. My son loves the kids club, in fact yesterday he was playing with a little girl just about his age and didn't want to leave when I came to get him so that is a HUGE relief, I was kind of worried about how he would react to going.
Thanks for listening... I swear 3FC is my daily therapy, I am so happy I found you all!!!
Diana3271: Glad you got some more sleep last night, and great job staying in your maintenance range! Still thinking about you and your Mom and sending positive and healing energy to you both.
I'm hoping March will be a lucky month for us all. My first goal for March is NO CHEATING! I did a lot of cheating in Feb. and now I'm looking back wondering what I might weigh now if I'd been good. So, no more looking back now, I'm gonna charge into March with my head held high and with high expectations! If I do my best then I know the scale will show it eventually
Starting March off really great already at 212 which is down 1.4 from yesterday
