Over 200 New Year New Me Part 19

lildebbie

Jess - Sorry you got a 0 this week :sad: YOu know you were sick the 1st part of the week...We will just credit it to that okay you will do great next week.

RedneckWmn

Thanks LilDebbie! I was sick, well still kind of am and I I have felt very stressed and anxious pretty much all week and I'm not sure why. AND TOM should be here next week. I'm going to blame if on all those factors! I'm really trying to not let it get me down. Gotta look at the big picture, I'm doing this to better my health. It shouldn't matter what the scale says. Next week I plan to hit the gym HARD since I should be back to 100% by then! I have lost the 5-6 pounds I gained on vacation in a matter of 8 days or so.

lildebbie

jesss - YOu are right!!! The big picture...and you WILL look awesome next week at the party..Did you find a dress last night??

I think TOM will be here late next week...uggg...

Positively_Me

Jess, like I said to litdeb before, Don't let the scale determine how you feel. Sometimes the scale can be very frustrating but look at how much you did lose. All I can say is AMAZING. Your hard work will pay off. It might be all the factors you stated above ( and some). Don't let the scale get you down. Now where's that smile that we are use to seeing. :flowerforyou:

Get better, with your allergies, and knock it hard when you get better.

Have fun on your trip and we want to see pic of you in the dress:flowerforyou:

I've been slacking a bit on my cardio this past week and the week before, and I had a celebratory lambic beer last night for the end of my program. I think tonight I'm going to have some pizza, too, since I haven't had any pizza in about 8 weeks now. I'll hit the gym first and do some cardio, and not eat 4 giant slices like I used to!

lildebbie

Miranda - Way to go!!! I think we are having pizza this weekened too...We are being very selective though!!! I don't want to waste my splurge on any pizza i think we are going to this resturant that has awesome pizza and you get your own personal pizza's so not tempted with eating like a whole large and much rather have a little of this pizza than a lot of another.

Working on a special project for my supervisor so no time to chat this morning. I'm super happy because I'm so bloated from the enchiladas that my ring actually fits BUT the scale says 198.2 anyway! Yay! I was at 201.8 or something last week but 201.2 the week before so I'll count a loss from there.

Well I am a bit excited because I weighed 218 this morning and I am sure it will fluctuate for the next few days up to 220 or so but I am going to celebrate that by the end of next week I will be in the teens again.WOOOOOHOOOOO! Anyways another piece of information that I wanted to share I woke up this morning and was thinking about bikinis and bathing suits in general and I already have a tankini that my husband and daughters says make me look hot:laugh: :laugh: well in my Glamour magazine it says for my body type that I should wear a two piece bathing suit .So I was looking in the magazine and the girl that had a bikini on she was my shape (not sure how much she weighed) but she wore a 16 and so do I and she was wearing a bikini.I thought there is no way I would look good in a bikini but everyone says it has a slimming effect.Well 2 years ago I had bought and XL bikini for my daughter and it was way to big for her so she told me to keep it and maybe someday I could wear it.When I first got it I couldn't even get the bottoms on and the top well there was spillage everywhere.:noway: :noway: :laugh: :laugh: Today I decided just for fun I would try it on again just to see what it looked like.Well to my surprise very little spillage on the top and the bottoms I GOT THEM ON MY BOOTY!! By no means did it look fabulous but I did look slimmer and if I had different bottoms that covered my FLAB I would have worn it to the beach this summer of course I am hoping by then to be another 20 pounds lighter before I go to the beach in July.So if I am I may just FLAUNT off a bikini this year LOL.Ok I am done bragging SORRY!!!

RedneckWmn

CONGRATS ON ONEDERLAND CRIS!!! :bigsmile: :drinker: I THINK YOU ARE OFFICIALLY THERE!!

POS ME Is on the brink of it! I see it in your future!

Don't worry I just needed to throw myself a little pitty party! I'm done now! :bigsmile: I kept thinking how amazing I looked in that dress last night and my roommates reacation when I walked out. She just said "OMG that's the one! It looks great!" I also remembered I had a very high sodium day on Wednseday and my ring isnt as lose as it normally is. So given all the factors I think that's why. Not making excuses just moving on and hitting it next week! I see big losses next week! Get me outta the 21?s!!:bigsmile:

Be back later to stalk!

Momma2four

I willbe back later to check in and read posts. As of this morning I am officially down 4.6 pounds

Chris - YOu ROCK !!!! so glad you are in onderland for good !!!!

Awsestfall - YAY for beein in the 2 teens and that is awesome for the bathing suit...I am hating bathing suites right night...I bought a 2 piece takini it is cute and fits but not the best for water aerobics , the bottoms fall down and the top flies up (just like on the belly) i need a one pices for swiming like that but none of them fit, due to my big tummy :sad:

Momma - YOu rock too !!! 4 lbs is awesome. YOu are soo close to that 40 by your 40th bday !!!!

meokk

Firstly.....TGIF so I can my darned chocolate, seriously could not stop thinking about creamy delicious milk chocolate for the last 3 days. I think it started in Vegas when I had to keep walking past this amazing candy store that has miilk & white chocolate waterfall from ceiling to floor......

Miranda - congrats on your biggest loser results, you did so well !!!:drinker: those are impressive stats!

Elmox - Mmmmm Beer, I love the Brooklyn Brewery :drinker:

Cris - How dare he disrespect you like that and put your baby in danger, what if something had happened, he was just lucky it didn't. You need to have a serious talk with that man. I'm not saying don't give him a second chance but this is a big one and if you don't get clear signals that he is absolutely mortified and sorry then it will be hard for you to move on and trust him around the baby. I hope it all works out and you can get past this. Thinking of you

Jess - That dress in the old photos is going to perfect for you to hold up next to yourself once you have lost all the weight, you're going to look tiny next to it. I don't think I would recognize current you and old you as being the same person, you look amazing :drinker: :flowerforyou:

Momma - love the belly tips, thanks for posting them for us!

Mstahl - remember what you taught us !?!? If the scale goes up, it's water, if it goes down it's fat !!!!!

Pos Me - super impressed with your workouts, I'm exhausted just reading about them :drinker:

Bluenote - I can safely say that I'll be here to keep you company for a good long while. I've lost weight twice in the past and put it back on so I know that I need to log and I need my MFP friends long after I reach my goal weight,,,,,maybe for several years at the least.

LittleSPy - Neighbor like that drive me NUTS!!!! I've loved in some pretty shady spots myself......I used to live in an apartment in a house and nearly every night this group of men would come purposely from across the street, park their car in front of our house, blast their music from the car and sit on our stoop until 2 or 3am eating & drinking and making a huge mess. It made no difference whether I yelled at them or not.

Check in for yesterday:
calories - about 1100
Water - 96oz
exercise - a little walking
proud I resisted my chocolate craving, OK I'll shut up about chocolate now:bigsmile:

RedneckWmn

meokk-I actually thought about doing a pic like that with the dress but there's one problem, my roommates Mom took it in last summer about 2 or 3 inches on both sides. Either way, it still falls off of me because I do still have it. I'm so proud you resisted chocolate all week!! Enjoy it today!!

Momma-What a great loss!! So glad to see you were doing so well even though we hadnt heard from you!! Keep up whatever it is you have been doing

awestfall-WOW! A Bikini!! You will get to your goal for your bikini with all your determation I have seen the last week!

cris20056

awestfall- Congrats on the bikini! How exciting, cant wait til you are comfortable enough to wear it out

momma- 4lbs WOOOHOO! Go momma its your birfday, we gonna party like its your birfday..missed ya!

meook- CONGRATS ON HITTING 4-0

Pos_me- I forget if I said congrats on your 4-0 too so Congrats! ( i see that i did already say this..sorry brain fart)

Big losses this week! yay team!

edited to say- Please dont mention chocolate waterfalls, you are killing me :laugh: :laugh:

LittleSpy

Haha, speaking of swimsuits. My curiosity got the best of me yesterday and I went to try a couple on. There were none that I really liked but I saw the most hideously AWESOME shiney drapey purple thing called a "swim dress" and I just HAD to try it on. :laugh:

The great part of the story is I got a Large and it fit. :bigsmile: The horrible part of the story is EW, I look just awful in a one piece bathing suit! I think a bikini or at least a tankini would be best for me because my stomach is one of the best parts of my body (can't believe I said that). It's pretty impressively flat for a 5'4" girl who weighs nearly 200 pounds. My legs are where I carry my weight so having them completely exposed & my slimmer parts completely covered makes me look even fatter than I am.

Anyway, this is it: It's SO RIDICULOUS!!! I love it! But I simply could not wear it in public. :laugh: :embarassed:


Anyway, there's nothing like trying on a swimsuit to put my fat butt right back in it's place. I was starting to think I looked pretty good until I imagined myself wearing a swimsuit in public. :noway: :laugh: Reality!

cris20056

:laugh: :laugh: omg julie ur hilarious, the glasses were a nice touch!

ps- I agree that your belly is flat, I remember when I saw that pic of you in the skirt and I was like OMG her stomach is FLAT

RedneckWmn

Julie-You are cracking me up!! I would second that, your stomach is pretty darn flat. How do you do that!?

LittleSpy

:laugh: :laugh: omg julie ur hilarious, the glasses were a nice touch!

Oh yeah.. I BOUGHT the glasses! Ridiculously huge stupid looking sunglasses are my new thing.

Thanks Gals for all the comments!! Like I said before no where near being comfortable wearing that bikini in public but I was amazed at how I looked in it and that it actually fit this time.
Julie- Sorry but I need to tell you that your WRONG!! That bathing suit looked awesome and you look AWESOME!!

Positively_Me

Thanks everyone for the wonderful compliments:blushing: I hope i keep up the losing streak:bigsmile:

Congrats to all the big losers:flowerforyou: this week!

Julie: you are too funny...always doing something I wouldn't be caught dead doing...LOL

P.s: YOu tummy is flat board abs..show it off

cris20056

COGIRL- 4LBS!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!:drinker:

lildebbie

Julie - hillarious!!!! I wish i had somehwere close to a flat stomach ..that is the reason i am not wearing a 1 piece right now for swimmming ..takini's fit better for me...if i had a flat stomach like you i would be showing it off too

LittleSpy

Julie: you are too funny...always doing something I wouldn't be caught dead doing...LOL

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Thanks?
Hilariously mortifying and awkward moments are indeed my specialty.

And you guys are so sweet to find something to compliment someone about even when covered in awful drapey purple muslinish shiny fabric. :laugh:

Oh, by the way, I have to share. Walmart has AMAZING 100% organic cotton capris for $12. They're so fabulous and actually looked pretty good. They feel like pajama pants. Pajama pants that are socially acceptable to wear in public. You should get some. I got 2 pairs to take to the beach because they're just perfect for that.

RedneckWmn

WOW!! Everybody is doing soooo good this week with weight loss!! I am so proud of y'all! Everybody has worked so hard this week!! :drinker:


Julie-I have a slight obesssion with sun glasses as well. Except I always buy big huge ugly ones. The uglier the better. But I will only pay $5 or less for them! :laugh: Drives my sister crazy!

Oh I agree. Big hideous glasses are the best. These ones are bright purple plastic with an awesome fade to the tint. Then they have some strange brown and black design on the top of the frame.
