I’m not so happy trying to lose weight on my own. I know is up to me, and I need to be strict about things. Now what I’m about to tell you, may seem like an ‘excuse’ but I am genuinely being honest about it. Growing up in poverty as a child, you appreciated the food you had to eat, as so many are worse off than we were as children. I am right, anyone with common sense should agree. Are they a lot of those? You be the judge. Moving on, as I mentioned, growing up we appreciated our food. Now as an adult, in my current relationship. My fiancé's mother, makes us dinner sometimes once every two weeks, usually Lasagna with some kind of sausage, Italian usually, and also sometimes pasta, VERY VERY delicious but also VERY VERY fattening. I don’t like food to go to waste, and I don’t OVER indulge, but my portions have to be small if I am to Continue Reading
Weigh-in #16 – Keeping On The Path
I’m embarrassed to say that I got really behind, so I had to post-date my last weigh-in, and then post this one. There is just so much going on. And it’s not so much with my life, but with the world. Just this week, they have Ebola in Atlanta now?? What is going on, why would the government risk our lives like this? Are they so certain they have a cure? I’m worried and getting worried more each day to the point, we are prepping, and why do you ask? Because you just don’t know! We are beginners, and all that, I am not going to bore you with that stuff. Maybe I’ll start another blog, just for that. For now, let’s talk about my weigh-in. I’m happy with it, I didn’t gain, yay!! I lost 2.2 lbs, woohoo! I am right on the nail with my weight loss, according to plan, I hope, no I will lose 100 lbs at the end of my dieting year! Woohoo! I can’t Continue Reading
Weigh-in #13 ~ Got it going on!
So here I am again, post-dating my weigh-in. I don’t know why I do it, I should blog about it as soon as I weigh in, but so many things come up right after, then before I know it, the week has passed. Sorry, but I will do the post-dating just to keep it on track for myself. So last week I showed you the photo of the blouse, and it arrived this week, I tried it on just to see how much I have to go. I got it on, but I know I have still a lot to lose before I can actually be wearing it, it’s even more beautiful in person. Anyway back to my weigh-in, here is this week's photo! I know for some it may not be much to be losing, especially when you compare me to an extreme weight-loss person, I would do it, but I don’t think my life story is sappy enough. Oh yeah I lost 0.7 lbs, as I mentioned it is not much, but at least I didn’t gain, Continue Reading
Weigh-in #12 – Weeee
I weighed in as normal, but I was worried about gaining, I’m always getting paranoid, I really don’t want to gain weight, is that wrong? Not the losing weight, but the paranoid part. So I got off the scale with a smile on my face thinking I lost 2 lbs, then I showed my fiancé and he said “Well done, you lost 4 lbs”, I said ‘No I didn’t, I lost 2?, then I double-checked, and realized he was right, I did, in fact, lose 4lbs. So naturally, I was on a natural high. There it is!! I’m really proud of myself. Cloths are beginning to fit bigger now, which I had been waiting for that to happen. I had 2 pairs of zip-up jeans, that I couldn’t fit into anymore, well this past week, I fit into them, and thought yay!! Eventually, I won’t fit into them either. I don’t plan on buying much clothing, as I will continue losing weight. No point in Continue Reading
Happy July! Summer is Here, Yay!
It's finally here, summer! We have been waiting for a what seems like a long time, to finally get that awesome summer weather. I am so so happy. No more being cold, although it will get humid, and I'll have just one more thing to complain about lol :P Our 5th anniversary is coming up in a few days, gosh I can't believe it's been 5 years already, and we aren't even married, but we are engaged, I told that story already :) But it is exciting to see how long we've been together, and how strong our relationship still it, at least it appears like that to me. And I think to him as well. I hope he is happy, I'm sure things aren't 100% perfect, but I think I make him happy, and that is what really counts in the end. Wish some people would realise that at the end of the day, that is all that should matter, right? RIGHT!!! My dieting is Continue Reading
