Red - Congratulations on the weight loss!! I am SO proud of you!! It's awesome how, despite feeling depressed, you accomplished so much, and pushed yourself at the gym! And walked for an hour afterwards!! You ROCK! And you chalked up another day on yoru challenges!! So funny how you say people don't openly criticize...when that's exactly what that arse did. But I know what you mean. I believe I will have a problem with loose skin as well the more weight I lose. There's a woman who works at my gym that lost 225 lbs via bariatric surgery, and since she and I are friends, I asked her if I could ask a personal question...then I asked her about loose skin. She said she'd much rather have the loose skin than all that fat and unhealthy weight. She said she decided to not get plastic surgery to remove the loose skin as she didn't want the complications of yet another surgery. She showed me her arms, which did have a lot of loose skin, and she said her abdomen was MUCH worse. But she said that she controls who sees that, and if someone is gonna see her naked, then he'd better love all of her, loose skin and all. That's kind of how I feel right now. Of course, I've got a long way to go before I see LOTS of loose skin...there's still plenty of fat to keep it taut. :dunno:
********************* I am crazy busy again today at work. I have a big report that I need to get "mostly" done by end of day today. I realized this morning that I just have 8 more work days before vacation! We have Friday and Monday off this weekend, and then I leave for vacation on June 9. I'm so looking forward to it!! I did an hour of Zumba plus strength training last night. Plus, my usual crunches, pilates and planks. After work, I am going for a 5K walk with some friends from Weight Watchers, providing it doesn't rain.

Red- congrats on the weight loss. You are doing so good on your challenges, and so much energy! I agree with you that the headaches are from lower blood sugar, and hopefully my body will soon adjust accordingly.
Diyana- thanks for the offer to help me figure out my points, but you see I live on the other side of the pond, so much of the stuff you have in the States are not available here, besides, I'm a (fat) vegetarian, so unless you are a vegetarian, then you will probably have problems planning my menu. I'm sure that others think that WW is a breeze when one is a veghead, because of all the zero points veggies, but that is not the case. It is probably more difficult for us, that's why I think I'm getting extremely hypoglycemic, hence, the headaches. I've been using my weekly allowance as follows; day 1 - 1 point, day 2- 4 points, day 3- 11 BIG POINTS !! Guess what? on the first 2 days, the scale did not budge, but after the 11 big points splurge- I lost .4 pounds!! What is up with that?? I know about the weigh only once a week thing, but I've always weighed myself daily when I'm on a diet- that is what works for me. Anyway, I conclude that 18 points is probably slowing down my metabolism. Day 4 completed. You are doing great with your challenges, and so many! WTG, I wish I had just half of your motivation/dedication. |
two weeks no smoking!
I did it again. Forced myself to get to the gym and there did a good chest/back workout :workout: followed by 10K on the bike. :bike2: Am planning to give myself a rest today but do a lot of walking. Basically because I don't really have time to go to the gym today and also because the walking may be actually more productive as far as fat loss goes. :snail:
I don't know how long I can keep this up. The "rewards" of a sense of accomplishment are not great after a while because the flush of having done something pales when you just start feeling the hard work of it. I guess that's the hard thing about weight loss and achieving a body. It takes so long to really see results. Fat loss is flukey. :dizzy: You may even be doing it and yet not see it. It's impossible for me to close my eyes for a week and keep doing the things. I want to see results NOW! :tantrum: Yeah, yeah, I know it's not possible. Maybe what I need to do is assign myself some "feel good" things that really give me results NOW and use those to offset the good things I do that will only show results down the road AS LONG AS I continue doing them all the way. Sigh. :^: Well, today will be a good test. With things lousy on the personal front, it's always a challenge. See if I can beat this too! :strong: Look, two full weeks without smoking. Can't say I feel anything at all about that. :shrug: But, just doing the math and saying I saved a pack of cigs a day means I saved myself ¥4,200 ($47). That's nothing to sniff at. :yes: NO SMOKING CHALLENGE 14 DAYS COMPLETED FEEL GOOD CHALLENGE 3 DAYS COMPLETED ************** diyana -- Thank you! I don't know how I did it either. Something just has me pushing through. I know it can't last. I just know it.....but then, why not, right? Or at least, do it for a bit and take a rest WITHOUT backtracking. It's just I'm not good at "taking it easy." It seems I only have two speeds, full speed ahead and fast reverse. And then when I've returned to where I started from, I slam the brakes on. Is this nuts or what? Yes, loose skin. Who'd have thought it would be a problem for so many people? It's kind of awful, isn't it, that so many people have problems like this when people all over the world are starving to death every day. But, yeah, different worlds, different problems. If we could just bring it all together and even out the excesses, we'd all be in a better place. Loose skin and whether you get it removed is a very complicated thing. I guess it's just like whether you get breast enhancement or any cosmetic surgery. No one can really judge. But, oh, I've got to tell you about this woman in the gym. She is anorexic, almost, and doing weight training...er, if you can call it that. Of course, she can barely lift any sort of weight. The thing is, her "chest" is HUGE. I really don't know what she is thinking. Anorexia is sad, but with her it's like the two extremes of a warped body image...or the extremes of buying into what she thinks will make her attractive, skinny with huge boobs. She has never said hello to me, never even nodded. Yesterday, our eyes met and normally you would at least nod but she gave me a near dirty look. Guess I am just too gross for her....being so strong and hulklike! :lol3: Oh, when I said Japanese don't openly criticize, I meant as a whole. No one is saying this jerk was a polite Japanese, no way. He would surely be a jerk in any culture. It's that the checks are not on such people here. In the West perhaps, someone would say something to him. Here, no one does, or too few for it to have an effect. Did you get that report done? God, I hate paperwork. But, having a vacation to look forward to must be nice, eh? And you and your zumbaing. Way to go! :dancer: Did you get the walk in too? girlie -- Congrats on Day 4! :cp: Thanks too for the congrats on my weight loss. I dont know if I have more energy. I was dragging to the gym, really almost turned around. But, yes, at the gym I have power. I don't know where that has come from but I must have put on quite a bit of muscle because everything is easier now. I'm a vegetarian too (though recently I've been slipping in some things that aren't) and know just how impossible it seems to eat well on programs designed for non-vegetarians. As for the scale, it really has little to do with what you eat on a daily basis. And the process of moving fat out of the body seems to involve a lot of water retention, which is why we have what many people refer to as the "Whoosh effect." You won't see the scale budge and then after a few days, there's a big drop. Nice when it happens, but not when you're expecting it and it never comes (usually because you've been eating too much and/or overestimating your exercise :lol: ) But then, I'm sure you know all this! Well, here's wishing you continued success! :rain: |
Girley - You could definitely be right about needing more than 18 points/day to keep your metabolism reved up. How much exercise are you doing? If you're doing daily vigorous exercise (earning 5 or 6 exercise points/day or more), then yes, 18 would almost definitely be too low. Plus, you need to remember that day to day weight fluctuations of under a pound can happen for so many different reasons...sodium intake, water intake, and yes, even bodily functions. That's why the once a week weigh in is recommended, so you don't get elated, then discouraged, etc. I understand that's difficult for you and so many others. I judge by how my clothes fit during the week. And if I feel bloated, I drink more water and eat more fiber. As for all my challenges...most of them are routine by now (journaling, eating veggies, etc.), so I almost don't count see them as challenges. I just include them because I can't allow myself to get lax about them.
Red - Great job getting to the gym and for going 2 weeks with no smoking!!! What a huge savings!! Walking is definitely an awesome thing to do on an "off day" from the gym. I walked a 5K yesterday instead of going to Zumba. My back didn't like it...but I did finish. My friend, I would love to see quick results too. I would LOVE to lose more than 0.5 in a week. The rewards for me are the endorphins and feeling so much better when I eat healthy and exercise...and watching my smaller clothes become closer and closer to clothes I can fit into comfortably. ************************ I did a 5K walk last night in 45 minutes, which bothered my back. It's crazy how I can Zumba for 2 hours straight...but walking sometimes bothers me after about 20-25 minutes. Since my back was hurting when I got home, I did stretches instead of abs/Pilates/planks. My report is nearly done. Just a couple more things to check and then I wait for approval to publish it. Journal everything, count and stay within WW points - 0 of 0 pauses taken - Day 8/21 80 ounces of water - 0 of 0 pauses taken - Day 8/21 6 servings of fruits and veg - 0 of 0 pauses taken - Day 8/21 No food and only water after 8:30 pm - 0 of 1 pause taken - Day 8/21 45 min. (at least) of cardio - 0 of 1 pause taken - Day 8/21 50 crunches - 1 of 1 pause taken - Day 7/21 5 minutes of Pilates - 1 of 1 pause taken - Day 7/21 2 minutes of planks - 1 of 1 pause taken - Day 7/21 15 minutes (at least) of decluttering/cleaning - 1 of 1 pause taken - Day 7/21 |
Ok, so another whoosh effect? less .4 pound and down to 150 pounds, so that means I have met my 5% weight loss goal:cloud9: I’m going to start working on my 10% weight loss goal.
Somehow, I know it’s not only water because I fit my size 10 Levis, and I couldn’t 2 days ago, so how cool is that?:cool: Just .1 pound and I’ll be in the 140´s, so I’ll try to stay OP today.:carrot: Red~ I remember that you are a veghead as well; how does it affect you when you eat other stuff? I occasionally do too, like when I go to parties etc., I never demand that a vegetarian dish be available for me. I don’t think it is fair to put others into so much trouble. Anyway, I get hives , or zits the next day. I hear you about wanting the results now, that’s the biggest challenge of all- to be patient and continue to work hard on getting healthy and fit. Loose skin, maybe I’ll get that too this time around.:( Better loose skin than fat, eh? :?: Wow, 2 weeks without cigs?:cheer: WTG, I bet it is getting easier? And the savings – not bad either!:cp: Diyana~ exercise? What exercise??? Seriously, barely making 1 point daily! :( For a sedentary Domestic goddess/diva like me then 1 point daily really accounts to something! I don’t get winded or anything, I’m just LAZY- there I’ve said it.:o That’s a challenge I’ll have to take, anyway baby steps is the key to success. I hope I can one day consider exercise, journaling, etc. daily routine. You are an inspiration! I’ve been watching a Zumba DVD and it looks cool, maybe I should try it instead of watching!:o |
I did it again, though yesterday I laid off on the exercise and just walked. My eyelids are swollen and my face itchy and I have some constant asthma so I figured I should take it down a notch for a day or two.
Also, I was really too busy to get to the gym though I was wishing I'd brought my stuff because I had a bit of time to kill. It was good I didn't. I would have definitely made things worse. I have to consider this part of my "Feel Good" Challenge, learning to sit back and take a little rest instead of pushing myself constantly then really snapping under the onslaught and backpaddling. I got my hair cut and so far don't think it's bad at all although it's short. It's good going into the summer. If only my eyelids would get better I might start looking my age instead of 70. God, I hope I look better than this at 70! NO SMOKING CHALLENGE 15 DAYS COMPLETED FEEL GOOD CHALLENGE 4 DAYS COMPLETED ************** diyana -- Great on the challenges! :bravo: Too bad about your back. I wonder why that is? Do you have a spinal problem? I can't remember, but I think you do, right? I must admit, the savings on the saved cigarettes is likely even more because some of those days I would likely have bought more than a pack! Pretty pathetic. The price of cigs is still relatively low here but expected to go up by yearend. So, I'll have saved even more. Of course, it doesn't seem like much to me because I am still pretty much broke, but, yeah, I prefer to focus on things other than health, which very rarely stops smokers....except in the end. :( girlie -- Congratulations on the weight loss!! :cp: :encore: :cp: Fantastic! Reached your goal too! Wow. I'm going to be there soon so watch out! We can have a neck and neck fight to the finish! Whether it's water or not doesn't matter. Water looks the same as fat and water is a part of the cells holding fat too. But, of course, it's a REAL loss! Hurrah! If I eat other things I don't really know how it affects me. I guess it does but nothing major that I know of. Then again, I have skin and allergy problems a lot so the little bit isn't noticeable. :^: Loose skin sucks but I think with time it does get considerably better. It looks like fat though so really is a frustration and disappointment. I can't say which is better except the loose skin is easier to hide. When we're talking about when you can't hide, that's another problem but... Really, I guess we can't say, oh, well, I may as well be fat because I'll have loose skin anyway, right? The not smoking is not really getting easier. In fact, I am still tempted a lot. Every time I pass someone smoking in the street and get a whiff, especially if I'm in a sour mood or feeling hurt, then I want to reach out and smoke in spite. That was my biggest trigger. I never really smoked because I felt good. It was more of an extension of a bad feeling, which is why, feeling better is not really a motivation. Smoking allowed me to wallow in my pain. Stupid, eh? That said, it served its purpose when things were really bad for me. Now, I am dealing with it in better ways. Before, though, I couldn't do that. |
uuuh I apologizeee :) been very rarely on the forum lately so I didn't give you closure on my challenge with a final post :D well as it was planned I finished it aand of course I am still far from doing that handstand, ugh! But I really really like my 2-3 pushups, I can't honestly form a 90 degree angle with my elbows, but I have very nice form (straight body line) and that counts to me so np :3
thanks everyone for sharing my journey.. i'm off challanges now but i've been focusing on my abs some more, and my belly is looking nicer and feels firmer.. and also focusing on my lower back and butt and thighs. hard to use muscles! :) uh and Shad, I am not studying music, sadly, I work with computers. But I write songs for fun ^_^ and sing all day long. See you around the forum, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! :grouphug: |
:cheers:Here is to another whoosh~ another .4 pound loss, and down to 149.6, getting me closer to 100 than 200!!:broc:
What is up with that magical .4 number??:?: I’ve been going down .4 pounds everyday for the last 3 days, my food and activities are different on all 3 days and daily WW points used are different as well. One thing is consistent- I’ve just been eating over my daily allowance and tapping into my weekly points. I know that I can’t continue to go down .4 daily, it’s just not feasible, although, I certainly wish it is.:tantrum: Red~ don't worry, there is not much you need to catch up with. By the way, are your allergies seasonal? Could it be from food? Stress? I’m sure it’s not fun. Hope the eyelid swelling have subsided, and that you're feeling much better. It’s nice that you like your new haircut, adds up to the feeling good thing! Thanks for the congrats on my meeting my mini goal, you are doing great on your challenges as well. We can do this together, I know we can! I’m really in awe of all the energy you have. I’m only walking 30 minutes on my treadmill,:o I know I need to do more, especially if I want to avoid/minimize the loose skin, but hey, maybe it will get better, I'm sure it will. |
Well, I crashed and burned the other night. But, I'm back with another day of success and though I feel sick about what I did, I will just consider it a hiccup and carry on. It doesn't undo two weeks of success and it's what I do from here on that really matters. I almost lied about it because I desperately need the congratulatory words I get from you all when I do notch another day, but this is it and, well, it's already behind me. I got back up and though I feel sick about having broken my streak, at least I am at it again. Is that good for something?
Life is so hard now and I am so down, in so many ways. It's amazing I can do the things I do, truly amazing in light of how I feel. Yesterday, I virtually dragged myself to the gym but I could only muster up a little bit of energy. I couldn't push myself to do 10K on the bike, but I did do 5 and a few half-a'd reps for legs. I can only hope and pray that things start looking up for me. I have had yet another blow in the personal life realm and it feels like the last straw before this back breaks. I am truly sick of it all. My only hope is that I can somehow see progress with the weight loss and that I can consider achieving the body I always wanted enough of an incentive to do it. Right now, nothing seems to matter anymore. Sorry to be so down but that's where I am. I wish I could learn to do things for myself but I have never been able to. I always need some sort of outside motivation. Now, even weight loss and such has lost its attractiveness. When I try to think of things I want to do or attain, I can't even do that. It's all like, so what? The fact that no one has commented on my weight loss is mind-boggling to me and I think it has had an effect. I feel invisible, truly invisible. My pants are hanging on me and my face is much thinner but no one says a word. I can't understand it. I really can't. I do not look good though because I look so sad and tired so maybe people are worried and don't want to say anything. Anyhow, what would they say, you look awful but you look thinner. I guess it's more about looking good not just thinner. Then again, it's the total picture, so maybe once and if I look happier and my eyes are not so swollen, I can start looking better and pulling in the compliments. I myself am appalled at how I look. I never smile anymore. There's been so much pain and I am still in big trouble financially. Where is the light at the end of this tunnel? NO SMOKING CHALLENGE 16 DAYS COMPLETED 1 pause FEEL GOOD CHALLENGE 6 DAYS COMPLETED ************** girlie -- I am so jealous! But, kudos to you!! :bravo: Your hard work is paying off and that's an inspiration. I guess we just can't give up, eh? I don't know what is wrong with me. I have been having allergy and skin problems for a couple years now. It is far better than it was at the worst point, but still a problem and the eyelid swelling is utterly depressing. At least with the skin I could cover it up but the eyes truly make me look ancient and this at this time in my life is the biggest killer. It makes me feel like, "what's the point?" of everything. Why bother when nothing I do makes me look attractive. It seems linked with hormonal fluctuations but there is also itching and redness. I don't have any insurance so doctors are not really feasible now. Besides, when I did have insurance nothing seemed to work really. I wish I could get better. fra -- Good to see you again. And good for you for continuing with your exercise. You will make that handstand. Don't worry about arm angles, your pushups sound great! Hang in there! :sunny: |
Well I crashed and burned as well, used all my daily, weekly, and activity points, so I gained the .4 pounds which have taken me down to the 140s:mad: but I’m back up too. In spite of the lapse I have managed to lose 1.2 pounds this week, I’ll take it and I’ll just have to work harder on my goals this week.:(
Red~ yes, it is a good thing that we can get up after a lapse, remember that it is first when these errors of judgement are repeated every single day that it is deemed a failure. I do understand your pain, and I really feel for you. It is not a good thing to be feeling so blue, it is easy for me to say “look at the bright side of things”, but I know that does not help you in anyway. I can’t give you professional advice, I surely wish I can. Being blue can be due to hormonal fluctuations, and we all go through these stages, but you are a strong woman, I'm sure you will find the strength to get over this crisis. One thing I know is, it is not true that ”you can’t do things for yourself” , c’mon you live by yourself in a foreign country, in a totally different culture! Not many people can do that! The financial problems, well, I could understand that, I would be too, if I live in Tokyo! Cost of living is outrageous! Don’t you get health insurance from your employer? How about trying over the counter antihistamines? Yes, allergies can be due to hormonal fluctuations, and stress. I get hives when I'm nervous about something. Try some relaxation techniques/meditation. Nobody, aside from DH has noticed that I’ve lost some weight either, but like I said before, sometimes it takes 10kg. before others notice the difference, so I guess we just have to keep doing what we are doing now, and maybe someday we get the compliments, eh? Yes, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Remember. “Hope is a renewable option: If you run out of it at the end of the day, you get to start over in the morning” Barbara Kingsolver Hope you feel better.:hug: |
Well, again, I don't know how I did it but I got through another day. The Feel Good Challenge needs something to qualify it because I'm not sure when I actually "do it." I've realized that I can't determine whether I've made a day or not based on my feelings because doing something that's good for me may not feel good. I have to think of something. What I can say now is that if I pushed myself to do something that would probably help me in the end, if I didn't just lie around the house feeling sorry for myself, if I got out and into the world etc. etc. then it was probably a successful day. So, I did that yesterday, got to the racetrack for the big race and wrote a story.
Then I joined some others for drinks afterward and did NOT smoke though I was sorely tempted and almost gave in because the one guy was offering me a cigarette. There was something though that stopped me. I was thinking..."I know I'll never stop at just one. Just one will set me off and I'll be off buying packs and....it's just not worth it." Somehow, before I could think about it more, the idea dissipated and I'm glad it did because I got to notch another day. The drinking, however, is not good. Though it was free because the others paid, it's no good for my weight loss. I knew this would happen and it's one of the reasons I almost didn't go to the track. But, I've done it before and I can do it again. Socializing does not have to be with beer. I can go and drink something non-alcoholic. So, I'm adding another challenge and going off the alcohol again. And just so I don't have to feel I have a choice (that I know I can't be trusted with) I am allowing myself no pauses. And the smoking challenge is getting a pause limit on it as well....NO more!! Here goes. NO SMOKING CHALLENGE 17 DAYS COMPLETED 1 pause of 1 allowed taken FEEL GOOD CHALLENGE 7 DAYS COMPLETED NO ALCOHOL CHALLENGE 0 DAYS COMPLETED no pauses allowed ************** girlie -- Sorry to hear about the crash and burn. But, just do as I am trying to and get back at it again. See what made you use up your points and try a different strategy. Sorry for the total depressed post. With me it's pretty simple. I just don't have work and that's making me depressed. It's pretty simple. But I have to keep at it and look at things with some optimism and get up and go, that's all I can say. A lot of the current money problems came about because I was being hit for loans from a guy, whom I felt I couldn't turn down. And I don't regret that but I have to keep in mind that, if I take away that money from the equation, I was still pretty good myself. So, I was not a failure, which is what I've been feeling like. I just have to get wiser when it comes to making money. And, in the process, I've had some pretty good revelations about squandering money. I don't even want to go out to bars anymore. I just can't afford and what's better is that, even if I had the money, I see it now as a huge waste. There are only some times when I'll allow it. I used to actually look at the money I spent and would go to cheap places. In recent years, I started not to care and got really sloppy with spending. So, this restriction on my finances is finally helping get my head in a better place, I think. It's "resetting" my money radar, I think. Again, not a word about weight loss yesterday. I just don't get it. Of course, with my eyelids swollen, and my eyes red and tearing all day, I looked a sight, so no one was going to give a care about the fact that I thought my body was looking a heck of a lot better. They were surely wondering what was wrong with me. And I don't know myself. Allergies, a sudden drop in the temperature which seems to make my eyes tear, who knows? And no, no employer, no insurance. I just have to be strong and fight on, right? |
Got to the gym yesterday and did 10K on the bike as well as some chest and back weights. Don't feel so great about it because the weight is creeping up again. I don't know. If this is what it takes for me to lose weight, then I'm in trouble. I mean, come on, isn't it supposed to be easier? How can anyone be thin if this is what it takes? I don't get it. Ok, maybe being short makes it all the harder. Still..... :^:

I was quite busy yesterday, so I wasn't able to post, and we are having guests for dinner tonight, so I need to do some decluttering, etc. don't have so much time, so this will be brief.
I've been doing better with my points, but haven't been exercising- can't find the time!:( I'm back into the 140s, and hope that I can kiss the 150s goodbye. I'll try to watch what I eat at dinner tonight. The wine:love: will be tough, we usually serve 3 main course dinner, with corresponding wine- white, red, dessert wine. Oh my, I'm in BIG TROUBLE!:( Red~ WTG on getting all those workout done. Yes it is lot harder for shorties like us:( I'm glad that you are starting to sound chirpier, and adding another challenge, eh? :goodluck::crossed: |
Hi everyone -
What a LOVELY long Memorial Day weekend. I was off work from Friday through Monday and did not get near a computer. I was busy and very active. No Zumba for this chick though....just lots of walking and gardening. I am looking forward to an hour of Zumba tonight, along with Pilates, abs and strength training. Yeeee Hawwww! :woohoo: I've got lots to catch up on at work...so I'll read your posts later. Hope you're all doing well. Red, I hope your allergies ease up. No one has noticed my weight loss either....and I'm sure my relatives won't either when I see them next week. Heck, it's been so long since I've seen them (over 6 years) that I may have been much thinner back then. I can't remember. Oh well, I am where I am and I'm working hard to get fit. :hugs: to ya', my dear sista.
