a definite commitment

Well, so about a month ago I joined curves, a couple weeks before that, i decided to put to paper what i was allowed to eat and what exercise i was going to do. I started at 162, today i weigh 153. When I began at curves I weighed 155. When i got my weight and measurement done the other day, I had lost 6.5 inches all over and 2 lbs. I lost .10 of my body fat percentage. I am now 33% body fat which is 50.49 lbs of fat. I am happy, overall it has made me feel better to work out. Being locked into a year contract makes sure I have to keep up with it because I'm not wasting $34 a month on it. :) I am excited and cant wait to see what I weigh in august. I think I might post more on here.

weigh in 2

well i had a set back :( i gained weight back. I now weigh 158.8 blah well it just means i should be more diligent and actually work out. I'm also going to get my thyroid checked soon

food diary 2

I woke up and had toast with peanut butter and nutella. then I had a steamer meal the one pasta magherita. I then had a what the fudge brownie ice cream and a sandwich with mayo mustard ham and lots of veggies :) this food diary isnt so bad

Food Diary

There will be no exercise entry today. But I have a food diary. I had a bowl of Oatmeal this morning. It was raisin and spice. Then I had a cup of soup the spoonable kind lol. Then I had 3 marshmallow chocolate graham cracker cookies and 2 pieces of pizza the supreme kind from Pizza Hut. I also had 2 cups of cranberry juice and a magnum almond ice cream. :) I don't feel bad about today. I didn't eat too bad because I eat pretty well most days. Plus I'm not going to feel bad and get down on myself.

Weigh in

Well today I weighed myself. I have lost 2 lbs :) if I continue this pace the week of my birthday I will be at the first goal weight of 143lbs. I now weigh 157 and feel good to know that I have made some progress and I should be happy about that. It's better to celebrate the little victories than just push on and not be happy I'm not where I want to be. WOO!!!! lol well i hope everyone is as happy as I am.

Set Point

Well I have realized that I have reset my body's set point to be higher than it should be. And I found a way to counteract this. If I lose just 10% of my body weight which would be basically 16 lbs., and then maintain this for a few months It will begin to reset my set point. 143 for a few months is something I can live with being almost 160lbs is bad and I am aware of this. The easiest way to do this is eat healthy and exercise. Which I am going to do to the best of my abilities. I hope that in 2-3 months I can have reached my goal. And honestly making myself accountable would also be the best way to do this too. So if I post what I eat here and maybe post these on my facebook as well and I believe people read them then I will feel more accountable. Tomorrow I am going to weigh in and then post my weight at night Tomorrow I will have a food journal entry and hopefully an exercise one too. I'll do these all seperate and post my weight on here and Sunflowers. My ideal weight currently is 143 overall I'm hoping for 125-130 But good things take time.

EH

Well I have decided I do not know what to do. Lol I honestly think if I just eat healthier and exercise I would not have such a problem with my weight. I'm going to put my weigh ins up here. Just so we're aware when I started this journey, I began at 159 pounds on May 6th of this year. I should write down what I eat. But I feel like if I know someone is reading this I would post what I have been eating more frequently and be more interested in doing so. I sort of feel like no one is reading this But I am going to check the page views and comments would be appreciated. let me know I am accountable to someone other than myself or a doctor! Thank you!!!!
