cute little summer dress.
I don't mean to brag, but I'm so happy with the way my body is changing!! Over Christmas break I bought this cute summer dress a size too small in anticipation of summer (way early, i know) but when I ordered it, i put it on and my mother said that there was no way that it would ever fit me (there was like an inch left on…

Holy cow!
My weigh in day is Sunday...but I couldn't resist sneaking a peek at the scale today. I got on and it went BELOW 180 lbs...for the first time in about a year!! (179...woohoo!!) It's starting to look a whole lot more "doable" now...I knew that if I could lose those first few lbs-get the scale to budge AT ALL....I could do…

So friggin close!!!!!!!
Why, oh why????!!!! Not only did I NOT make it down into the 100's with today's weigh-in...but it had me up a dang pound!!! My "monthly visitor" came 2 days ago, and I am super bloated (my rings can barely go on), so I KNOW that's the culprit but MAN!! I was 202 last week! I am so close! This is torture! Sorry, just…

Days that I don't exercise...
are REALLY HARD days. :angry: I'm taking off today and tomorrow b.c. on Sunday I'm running a 5k...and at 1400cals...I just can't subsist on that with the foods I *choose* to eat. Which leads me to the obvious conclusion...I need to change the types of foods I eat :grumble: :laugh: I KNOW I do. I just didn't realize how…

Scales are Evil
I have been struggling to lose the last 15 pounds of a 100+ lb journey. I work out 5 days a week averaging 500-700 calories per day. I have been doing this regime for that past 3 years. I usually come in under on the calories and really track it. I give myself one cheat meal/event on the weekend. The scales have not really…

Not off to a good start
Hi, I just got this started today and was fine until about 5:00pm tonight. I work form 4:oo until about 9:30pm. I was just starving tonight. I ate a snack size bag of gold fish cracker, not to bad but then went down to the candy machine and got a payday bar. I have been hungry all day today. I drank the 8 glasses of water.…

WOW!I Can't even tell you !
I thought that I would check in tomorrow.... well today was my worst day really... I didn't exercise and didn't drink enough water and I ate things that I knew that I shouldn't but did it anyways.... I guess that I could wait to check in but then again ... If I lost nothing ... maybe it would be my own personal kick right…

So I hit the 10 lb mark this weekend... heck yes!!!!!! I actually upped my calories from 1200 to 1400. And I know this was bad, but I was actually eating 1200 period. Not net... So needless to say I dropped a bunch of weight real fast and then stopped. But this seems to be helping. I feel better too. I feel like I'm just…

Proverbs 1:33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. Jesus faced many terrible experiences in His lifetime.

Losing Motivation
Well, it is my 9th week of trying to lose weight and I am starting to slowly slip back into my old ways. I know what I am doing wrong, but I just don't care at the moment. I start to feel really negative about the whole thing..... Then I look back and kick myself. What do you guys do to boost up motivation back to where it…

trying to ignore the cookies
So my house is packed with cookies... mostly girl scout cookies, but some other cookies too that are even worse, if you can imagine that. It is only 8:14 a.m. and already they are on my mind!!!

I'm currently in 24's (which…
