    Today 173.8 UGH! I am UP again!!!! I know why too, but it doesn't seem to stop me.I get unmotivated SO easily!!! I just keep yo-yoing around between 168-175 since the beggining of this year!!!!:noway: The thing is, is that I finally got back into my size 10 jeans after who knows how long! If I go up anymore I won't be able to fit into them.

    I leave for hawaii for the very first time in a few days (Thursday) so I will try and get some walks in everyday.

    Congrats to all that had losses. To anyone who didn't, including myself, let's buckle down and get going in the right direction!

    CW: 180 (I'm actually happy because TOM is here and I only gained 1 pound woo hoo)

    But I have gained inches in the tummy and boob area which is expected I guess...As for this weeks work out I am kinda afraid to put up a schedule especially with my current track record. So I'll attempt to do Zumba at least 3 times this week.

    AHH So close to the healthy range! Healthy "range" for me caps at 152! I have not weighed 150lbs since 5th grade (and then I was 6 inches shorter!!!!!)!!!!!

    Anyway, my workouts are still pretty much on hold until: (a) my doctor's say ok, and (b) I find time or energy. I don't want to sacrifice my precious time to sleep.

    Soooo I'm just going to try to get a brisk walk in for 20 mins most of the days and call it a week.

    Good Morning ladies! I am so tired today for some reason. I think I am coming down with a cold, which is no fun! But I am determined to make it a good week.

    Question of the Day: In your journey of weight loss and adapting a healthier lifestyle, do you feel that a lot of the previous yo-yoing was due to your own self-image or feeling like you didn't "deserve" this?
  • Krys_T
    Krys_T Posts: 1,406 Member
    Somehow I went up 4lbs from 2 weeks ago.....but I think TOM is about to rear its ugly head soon.

    Nevertheless, I will keep on trucking. My plan is to do the 3-Day Shakeology Cleanse and then possibly look into the 17day Diet.

    Tuesday- Jillian 30 Day Shred
    Wednesday- Zumba Flat Abs and 20 Minute Express
    Thursday-Turbo Fire Fire 30
    Friday- Kickboxing or Boxing
    Saturday- Kickboxing or Boxing Class

    I know that my yo-yoing was/is due to my own self image because I want to look in the mirror and like what I see. It doesn't matter how many ppl say, "oh, you look fine the way you are! You do not need to lose any more weight, I wish I was your size........". Until I feel comfortable, like what I see, and am satisfied.....IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT ANYONE ELSE SAYS. I am almost at goal and I'm not satisfied. I plan to increase my strength training in an attempt to tone all my body parts.

    Good morning ladies! Happy Tuesday!!! I have been crazy this past week or so and surely not on track like I've needed to be and deserve every lb I gained, which was about 4.... :( crazy that one week of being really stupid can make you gain 4 lbs... I think alot of it's fluid though b/c my hands are swolen and I feel so bloated and gross...so hoping if I push water today I'll get rid of some of this.... I was at a conference for work so it threw my schedule completely off...

    My exercise plan for this week
    yesterday: walked forever 1/2 time holding a 2 yr old
    today: My goal is to burn at least 500 cals... not sure how haha... I have alot of crazy cleaning to do, I went to Kroger this weekend and they were having a huge mega deal...so I have 40 cans goods that are on the floor of my kitchen right now, so going to put them all away and plan on picking them up one at a time to put them up in the cabinets... that should do something :) , loud music plus cleaning usually means me burning alot of calories...
    Tomorrow: Zumba
    Thursday: rest (I have work, then church mtg and dinner, so wont' get home til late...)
    Friday: your shape kinect game, hip hop abs, zumba
    Saturday: may try p90x dvd, crunches, may take daughter for a walk
    Sunday: rest

    Thank you for holding me accountable!!

    For todays question.... I don't know that I never thought I was deserving of it... but I think it had a lot to do with self image... and a feeling of hopelessness...kinda like whats the point... I'll just gain it back again etc.... not really having the motivation I needed...

    Question of the Day: In your journey of weight loss and adapting a healthier lifestyle, do you feel that a lot of the previous yo-yoing was due to your own self-image or feeling like you didn't "deserve" this?

    I am up 1.5 lbs this week. I have been HORRIBLE with logging every calorie because of these bite-size Halloween treats. If I eat one and don't log it right away, by the end of the day I've forgotten what I ate. Anyhooo! Back to work today. My schedule this week will go a bit something like this:

    Tuesday: Chest and Back
    Wednesday: Insanity Plyos
    Thursday: Shoulders and Arms
    Friday: Cardio Power and Resistance
    Saturday: Jog and Recovery workout
    Sunday: Cardio Abs and maybe yoga?

    And as for today's QOD: I think my yo-yoing is a result of my thinking that I could resume old habits (without working out) and keep the weight off. It was more of a lack of commitment on my part to living a healthy, balanced life. I can't say that I ever felt in my heart that I didn't deserve this. It was just flat-out laziness.

    I think mine was due more to a lock of commitment than thinking I didn't deserve it. I would start and start losing but then I'd just give up or go back to my old eating habit and also was looking for an easy or a short cut. Now I know better.

    great question!

    looking back, i feel like i never knew how negative my own self-image truly was. i was always the type of person who just "didn't care" and it showed. i think the reason i yo-yoed and failed on previous attempts to lose weight was because i wasn't truly ready to commit and live a healthier lifestyle. for me, this has been quite an emotional journey that i don't think i was ready to tap into in the past, which is why i always gave up. i didn't have the confidence in myself to believe i could lose a significant amount of weight. over a year and almost 50lbs later, i don't even recognize my own self anymore. looking at old pictures honestly shocks me that i never truly saw how bad i was. thinking about how i acted/dressed/felt back then vs. how i am now is so different it's amazing. i think to really see success with weight loss and keep it off, you have to fully commit. if you don't, you won't succeed.

    Well, since I am STILL yo-yoing. I can say that for me it's just laziness. I love to eat!!!! I find when I'm eating well and exercising I feel so much better but if I got more than a few days of exercising my eating goes to crap and I stop caring. I quickly get derailed from focusing on my goal.....:grumble:
  • Krys_T
    Krys_T Posts: 1,406 Member
    The reason why I asked this was because I believe that this was a lot of my problem. When I gained weight, my self-image was shot and I didn't think much of this until now. I think a lot of me didn't even want to try to lose the weight because I felt like this was suppose to be how it was. I had gained 20lbs for a5 years straight and there I was...I still relied on being the "intelligent" girl and felt like I wasn't suppose to be the "pretty one" so who cared what I looked like. A very negative way to think, but it was my way of thinking at the time.

    My self-image is a lot better than it was then I will definitely say that, and I realized that I could be pretty and smart too, and I defined that for myself....not anyone else!

    QOD: Truly it is neither, but pure laziness. I will work out and eat well and drink all my water and I will lose a few pounds. So I will feel better and then indulge in a treat and another and another....until it has been a week of horrible eating, no working out and water? what water. :grumble:
