So I initially thought I lost 5lbs, it was a mistake I made, and didn’t realize it, until later in the week, oh boy I hate when I do that because it really does throw me off, not only mentally, but on MyFitnessPal, if I put in a certain weight, it will carry over, so there is no fixing it, I just have to adjust it in my next submission, well what is done, is done. it turns out, I only lost .09 lbs, lol far from 5 lbs haha. Anyway, regardless of my mistake, I am back on track and doing okay. With that said here are this week's results. This sounds so random, but my nail was fixable, but I had to be very gentle with it, as it had broke, right on the meaty part of the nail bed. That will all heal over time. Ok till next time. God BlessEmily Continue Reading
Weigh-in #24 – Could have been better!
I wasn’t pleased with this week's weigh-in, but I didn’t gain either. It was a measly 0.9 lbs, I know almost an lb, but not quite there. As I mentioned at least I did not gain. But what had me so ecstatic this week was, I fit into a top that I fit into snuggly 5 years ago, so over the last 5 years, I guess you can say I gained 70 lbs wow right? Yeah, it is unbelievable, how we can put it on each day. The food these days OH My Gosh, how fatty it is, and don’t get me started on fast food, that is a real killer. I wish more fast food places would start popping open that serve well-balanced meals! That would be amazing, but for now, it is up to us. I am sure there are some out there, and I wish we had some locally, it would be a treat! So there are my measly 0.9 lbs, lol, but it is way better than gaining. I am so happy about how well Continue Reading
Weigh-in #22 -Staying on Track!
As you can tell by the title, this last weigh-in was a good one as well. Not as great as last week's 5 lb loss, I still don’t know what I did differently but it was really good to have a huge jump like that. Now let’s talk about this passed weigh-in, I weighed myself, hoping I didn’t gain, but was pretty confident I wouldn’t, below is the image of what my weigh-in was. It is about 2 lbs I lost which is what I like to lose per week, so this weigh-in is another success story, which makes me very happy, considering a couple of bad weigh-ins I had in the past. My honey tells me that I am going to make my goal, which was to lose 100 lbs in a year. I officially started my diet on January 12, 2014, at this point in time, I was not logging into the MyFitnessPal app that helps me keep track of weight, what I eat, and calories. Wish I had it Continue Reading
Weigh-in #21 – Success again!
I am so so happy. When I got up today, grabbed the scale, and made my way to the bathroom to weigh in, I was doing a silent prayer. I weighed myself and my heart sank. I thought I had gained a lot. I walk into the room, my honey is sitting on the bed waiting, and he asks: How did it go? I said: I $#%#$% gained weight! He is shocked and says: But how could you, that is impossible! He asked me to show him so I did, and the image below is what I showed him. So for some reason, I jumped ahead and thought I was already in the 270s which I wasn’t. I thought I had gained 5lbs but instead, I LOST 5.4 lbs, WOOOHOOO I think that may very well have put me back on track to make my 100 lbs mark by January 2015, oh my gosh I am so so so sooooo happy you have no idea. I still believe I need to do meal-to-meal, instead of Continue Reading
Weigh-in #20 ~ Oh no!!!
What happened?! No, I didn’t just yo-yo again!!! Ugh, I am so so angry and disappointed, but happy it is not 5 lbs. I gained, yes you read right, gained 2.6 lbs. damn damn damn, what the hell!! Give me a break. I am scared to weigh in next week now. Things are not going well at all. I am disappointed each week, I have gained weight, and it is really upsetting me I do not want to go back to where I was. I need to get it in my head, that for me, my way of eating will have to be a lifetime commitment or I will never achieve my desired results. I have really considered writing Biggest Loser and try to get on the show, I would be more than willing to put myself to the test for a whole year. But then I think NO I can do this on my own!! I’m getting worried. I need to concentrate more! Really need to not worry about wasting Continue Reading
