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 #17 ~ Smooth Sailing
Right, so as it looks so far I am doing good, need to keep on this pace. I think my posts will get shorter lol. We’ll see. Typing with long nails makes it a little tricky, but I am managing. I’m happy to say I have lost 2.4 lbs, yay way to go Emily Lol. I’m happy about that, it makes me feel proud. As I mentioned before, I need to at least lose 2 lbs a week, in order to stay on track, the more yo-yo-ing I do, the more it can possibly set me back. Now for the photo! So that is a victory for me, so far so good! Ok, that is it for me. Till next time! Emily Continue Reading
Weigh-in #15 ~ Meh!
So this wasn’t such a bad weigh-in, but I did gain, not a lot though, which I am happy about. I gained .04 lbs, not bad right? No, it’s not, but I didn’t want to gain anything at all. I’d rather not lose anything, than gain. But it is only 0.4 lbs, which is a big relief! I’m starting to eat regular meals not so much Lean Cuisine or Smart Ones, I don’t even like Smart Ones anymore, they just don’t have a large enough variety. Healthy Choice is another I like. But I don’t like having to spend extra money to get my meals. I have to learn to stay under my calories, when I eat everyday things, but on that same note. We try to buy things that are low in calories, like Salad Dressing, the kind I use now is only 15 calories for 2 tablespoons, nice right? So I try to look for things, that won’t break the bank so to speak :D And there you Continue Reading
Summer Days, Losing Weight
Oh my it's been a bit since I posted, but I am back. I have recently wanted to start up with my video making, I haven't done one in months. I miss it, but for those who keep up, know what that is all about. I am also doing the dieting thing. Which by the way is going great, I have lost over 50 lbs already, isn't that just fantastic?? Even if you aren't impressed, I am. And that is the only 'real' person that counts! I am keeping track in two ways, using MyFitnessPal, that is life saver, but I also post about it in my other blog. It helps me keep track. I started doing my nails again,but not with glitter, I have just wanted to enjoy the nail polishes I have. Which I just scored on some at Walgreens this weekend. I have printed off $1 off coupons, about 6, with my Williams help of course, and they were on sale $4/2, so I got them at a Continue Reading
Weigh-in #14 ~ Keep on Trucking
I’m not really post-dating, I did weigh in yesterday morning, and it’s Sunday today, so I am kind of post-dating the date. I usually call it posting about it over the same weekend, so yay! Even though I put yesterday's date, just for my own records, so I don’t get confused. I’ve been doing reasonably well, until Friday, when I goofed up. William texted me and asked if I felt like having a Subway, sandwich and I thought yay great! They have healthy sandwiches. We had a Subway sandwich a few weeks before, he asked me to email him what I’d like, and I am always a stickler for details and getting all the calorie counts. Well I waited until the last minute and I hadn’t done it yet, so I checked my email and copied an old email and sent him it, even though I read it said Teriyaki Chicken and that is yummy and I knew it would be. I glanced at Continue Reading
