Eleven inches in two weeks and only .8 oz
So just this morning I was working out at the gym with my friend and I was complaining that in the last two weeks my scale hasn't moved! AT ALL! I had upped my calories and cut back on exercise because I was doing 'WAY' too much (about 3 hours a day at the gym on the elliptical) Then today after working out I got on the…

Shorty shorts
Just a tiny NSV but today I bought my first pair of actual 'shorts' not the ones past the knees in over 12 years. Yes and I felt awesome because I didn't think I was going to be asked to put more clothes on either! I haven't lost a great deal of lbs but my legs and arms have toned up so much I actually almost am happy with…

Over exercising and undereating
So my recommended calorie intake for the day is 1500 but because I am so active I usually gain around 2500-4000 calories through exercise. Am I seriously supposed to eat that much? I've been losing weight steadily but I don't want to crash. I'm having problems some days just eating the 1500 especially since I forget to eat…

NSV
So its been hot this week and so I dug out my summer wardrobe and found all my shirts from last year are tents and my shorts won't stay on! Also, after going on vacation this weekend I was scared to get on the scale and this morning I found I didn't gain an ounce! I'm just doing a happy dance today and thought I'd share. I…

Seriously?
So this morning as usual I went to drop my kids off at the gym daycare before working out and the daycare attendant tells me that my son can't come back because yesterday he was wrestling with his brother and the attendant didn't know how to handle it so he wasn't going to be allowed to come back anymore. Seriously? he's…

Dancing hopefully in the dark
So this site has been a great motivation and I'm so happy with all the support I'm receiving! Anyways, to the success! This weekend I went out with some friends to a show (band) and I wore a cute outfit that I bought about two weeks ago. However, once at the show I realized that with all the inches I've lost my pants don't…

Fat girl in a swimsuit
So today I went swimming and after two hours doing weighted jogging a guy stopped and asked me if I did this everyday. Nope I said I usually do the treadmill for two hours a day. (Today was my lazy day) At this comment the guy, the lifeguard, and a few other people looked at me and said "NO WAY I can't even do that" I felt…

Not okay....
So just to rant today I went to my gym to work out and left feeling angry. In my town the only gym is a 'rec center' kinda like a YMCA. On Fridays and on the weekends they have specials for families to come and bring their kids. I love this because I have kids. However, there is no supervision and today I had to stop an…

killing me with love
I'm gonna start by saying I LOVE MY HUSBAND he is a great guy loves me and supports me. But that is the crux of the situation. My husband loves me so much he won't even admit I'm fat! I'm definitely fat. He loves me so much that when I'm feeling tired and not wanting to work out he gets me a pillow and a blanket and 'takes…
