I can't believe I posted last on Feb 4, wow how time flies so quickly. It's almost Valentine's Day!! So what is going on? Well The Biggest Loser winner was shocking, I talked about that in my other blog. So I won't really talk much about it here, except to say, I was shocked at how much weight Rachel lost. I am worried for her and her health. In my opinion, she lost too much weight that it looks unhealthy, or is it that I'm just not use to seeing her that skinny that she appears underweight? The is 5 feet 4, just a few inches shorter than me, and 105 pounds might be too thin. But who am I to say, I'm not a doctor, but there has been chatter about her since the show aired. I hope she's happy, and stays healthy, and that all she wants in life comes her way. So yesterday The Walking Dead returned!! Wow what a mess everything became, and Continue Reading
I’m Disappointed In Myself
That title sure grabs a person’s interest. What did I do to disappoint myself? Well as mentioned in my previous post, I started dieting. Trying it on my own counting calories. Until you do this, you begin to realize how many calories really are in the food. It’s shocking. 2 oz of spaghetti noodles has about 200 calories, it also can depend on how it’s prepared, that’s cooked spaghetti, anyway 2 oz is not very much, I had about 6 or 7 oz it came out to a lot, let’s put it like that, and then with the other items I went over my daily calorie intake, and it just bummed me out, because I felt I was doing great. I wouldn’t be surprised if I gained a pound, just from that day alone. Needless to say, I’m trying to make up for it. So even though it bummed me out, I carry on, because I need to. Yesterday I went over 9 calories, not too bad, but Continue Reading
Dieting and Me!
I was not one to ever stick to a diet, when I was younger, my mom tried things, but I wasn't happy with them, and/or I just didn't have the will power. So why now you must ask? I honestly should of did this a very long time ago, when I didn't get as overweight as I did. I'm ashamed about that, but you know - it is, what it is! I can't complain, cry, bitch or even blame anyone but myself. So I hold myself responsible. So why now? Well I'm overweight, and I need to put an end to it. My boyfriend loved me as a big girl, still does and is 100% supportive, my sister is proud of me, and above all. I am proud of myself. I will spare details really. But I am not taking anything special, or going to a dietician, or anything like that. I just decided to see how many calories I am suppose to be consuming. I really didn't know where to go, so I Continue Reading
I Hate Being Hungry!
I think the worst part of a diet, is not the exercise, well I guess that is too lol but it’s adjusting to not eating, what you normally were eating, or should I say the portion size. The first few weeks, you go hungry. I hate that! I can’t even be near the kitchen, because I get hungry haha. I try to drink water when I get hungry, it helps fill me up. I’m trying to stay under 1,660 (corrected) calories a day, some may think that is a lot, but I think for myself it’s ideal at this time, perhaps later it will change. But as mentioned, it’s just those moments when I feel the hunger pangs. I can’t wait until I get passed that phase. As for exercise, it’s difficult for me, as my knees are bad. I injured one over 5 years ago, and have not been able to have a doctor look at it. It’s bad enough I just got a bill, that was not fully covered, Continue Reading
