realization

I have thought about it and i realized… WOW i have come so far. BUT i am not done!! thats why i dont feel like I have succeeded. I have lost 25 lbs, BUT i have 35 more to go FOR A REASON. i weigh 180 lbs. that is STILL unhealthy! AND THAT is why i dont look like i want to. so i still just need to hang in there. 25 IS an accomplishment,but i still have more to go.

i am back at home and back on the diet. my mom and I went grocery shopping last night and we got 200 dollars worth of grocerys, which is double what we usually spend. we got a LOT of good food to eat. Im back on track!!

good and bad

I have a love-hate with my weightloss. I am down to 180.8 as of thursday… but I dont feel as good as i thought i would. I DID that day, but as the time has gone by since then, i am feeling less fulfilled. Why is this? I am just feeling down about life i guess. I havent weighed for the last two days, i have been out of town and I more or less just have not been worrieing about the diet. Im not going CRAZy but i dont really have time orthe money right now to be worrying about it while im 300 miles away from home. Anyway, Ill be home tmorrow and back to my diet… It is just frustrating. I STILL FEEL FAT. i have lost 25 lbs, and YES you can tell… maybe its cuz me and my friends have been going out and taking pictures, which i really havent done since i started… and i feel like i kinda look the same in most of them. Not sure, this migt all be in my head… but it is just how i feel currently. My friends freaked out they were like YOU LOOK SO GOOD!!! but i DK… im just frustrated I guess. But 24.2 lbs is very good… i only have 35.8 left to go…anyway… dont get me wrong… i am EXTATIC… i have lost almost 25 WHOLE opunds!!! but its just not what i thought it would be.thats whats going on here. keep up the good work everyone.

down down down down

i am down to 182.0 which is the lowest yet!!! i am gettin close to the 170’s!!! very exciting!!! not as quick as i thought, especially since my trip is coming closer and closer… but i will take it. i am that much closer to my goal of 145.                  37 MORE LBS!!! woohoo. not 60 anymore, only 37!

grrr

IM FEELING SUPER FRUSTRATED i feel like i have gained weight, i can feel it around my neck.. its awful. blah. i have a cold, which could have contributed to the weight gain, the bloating, the w/e this is. but im getting really frustrated. Its been an awful last two days. I got in a wreck on saturday, and i dont have car insurance. Nothing happened to the guys car, but MY CAR, on the other hand, is pretty much totaled. I will find out later today the prognosis of the car, but i am completely screwed. I dont have a car, and need a car to get to work, and school…. I dont make very much money because i dont work THAT much, so to get a car i would have to get another job.. im just super stressed out. i need a miracle.  I wish 5,000 dollars would just drop from the sky. anyway, thanks for listening.

VENTTIME

aaaaahhhh…. i had such a good week until last night! i probably ate around 2400 calories yesterday. it was AWFUL!! i just could not stop… and the thing is, we had drinks too, so i really probably had 3000. BLAH!!!! i feel disgusting. i hate alcohol. it ruins everything, like this whole diet. i weighed today, i was 2 lbs heavier than where i was. which im not sure if thats really accurate, but still. i KNOW what i ate put me a week behind, at LEAST. blaaaaaaahhhhhhh.

blaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh

IM FEEELING FAT TODAY AND I DONT LIKE IT. i feel like, ok yes the number on the scale has gone down 22 lbs, but i dont feel like i LOOK like ive actually lost that much. i mean 22 lbs is allot! i picked up a 20 lb back of dog food,and it HUGE and SOO HEAVY. how is it that i dont SEE those changes???? are they there, and im just not seeing them cuz i look at myself too much to really see a change?? i dont understand.

this will not throw me off track, im just FRUSTTTTRATED at the moment.

my decision about wu-yi tea

i would recommend it to anyone to use. i was loseing weight before it, but it was a much slower pace. i have been on it for two weeks now, and i have lost 4.5 lbs in two weeks to the day. not sure if its to contribute to the tea, but i dont want to jinx it. my weight loss was very slow before hand. so.. thats my final decision.

-21.8 lbs SO FAR!!! WOOHOOOO!!!!

WOOOOOHOOOO!!!

I AM SOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!! I HAVE LOST 21 LBS!!!  WOOOOOHOOO!!!! not weighing for another week, wasnt actually supposed to weigh until thursday, but my motivation was down and i needed it!!

heres to another week guys!!

not weighing in and feelin good

i have put away the scale for at least a week… and as each day goes by i realize…wow. i dont need the scale daily… the point is to focus on what im eating and the exersizing… not the number on the scale!!!! in one month and a half i have only lost 9 lbs, BUT at the same time i have lost 2 inches around my waist!!! i didnt go into depth measuring i was just curious… and it feels great!!! so… no more HUGE focus on the scale!! and it really does feel okay. even though a HUGE loss is very motivating… it is less motivating to see no movement day after day.

so thats me!

everything is going good so far!
