Bulge Battling Buddies #52

  • So I am optimistic and started a new thread I could use some optimism
    early this week there was an anthrax scare at my home university
    I just read on NJO.com that it was just some glue residue thank god
    but today theres an anthrax/chemical scare here and I broke into tears its insane i just want to feel safe
    my eating is so so
    i switched back to low fat milk and this has been my pasta and veggies week i think i'm doing ok
    i cant resist chocolate tho its the Stress and TOM is due
    things with BF are a bit up in the air
    but i'm still having fun
    not sure where my weight is and still havent gone over to the gym apathy sucks kids but i will do it!
  • Hey Gals!
    Kier I'm so glad your doing ok,....been concerned about you for sure. I've been thinking about you being over there away from your family.

    I've been doing ok this week, but whew that no carbs mixing with the protiens/fats stuff is hard!!! You don't realize how much we mix the two together! I have lost 4lbs this week though so that's good, I need to get some a size smaller jeans and pants, that is encouraging. I'm now down to 294 WOOO HOOO. I guess that would be written 338/294/ 165 huh? Not sure on all that short term longterm stuff or how ya'll do it, but well there it is!

    I hope everyone is doing well, it's the weekend, and I am working I do keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

  • Hi, my name is Maritza and I am also from New Jersey. I'm 19 and struggling to lose a lot of weight right now. If you have any tips for me I'd be grateful. I can't afford to go to the gym but I work out everyday at home. I started my diet three weeks ago and I've lost a total of 11 pounds.

    Hope to hear from you soon!
  • Hi Mari,

  • Hey Ladies!!!
    Welcome Maritza!

    Whew...this has been one heck of a 3 week funk I've been in. Ya know emotions soo effect how we do things. I mean it's hard being an emotional eater....and to not turn to the junk food when things get all crazy and sad...or whatever. So well I stumbled big time and fell off the wagon for a bit, but I'm back on the trail.
    Didn't gain much back, just a pound or so.....but still. Get mad at myself when I turn to food to comfort my hurts, and stresses, etc.

    I hope you all are doing ok. Kier miss you girl! I soo long to be on that green island right about now! I hope school and the gym at the butt crack of dawn is going ok.

    Take care all and keep looking up!

  • Hi all.

    I started up the old diet again today. Wish me luck. So far so good. (It's lunchtime). Hope the rest of the day goes as well.

    I'm back to 255 again. Must be my "setpoint"

    Have a good day all.
