I have done a comeback, and that is good, it means I can recover and my own pep talks are helping, thank goodness for that. I suppose everyone has slip-ups and I am not an exception. I know this is going to be a struggle, and I know I will get to a place in my mind when I am going to be triumphant over this, and it will come as second nature to me. Thank goodness. So for this weigh-in, I lost 2.4 lbs, exactly what I gained last week, so really I haven’t moved anywhere, wait actually, I have, even though I haven’t lost more. At least I am not gaining, right? Now for the photo. I’m glad I am heading in the right direction. I just got to keep it up. I can do this, thank you for all your silent supporters, I know you are there, and I appreciate it. Till next timeEmily Continue Reading
Weigh-in #18 – Rough Waters
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 #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 #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
