UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im not doing so good!! I am losing all motivation to even try anymore. last night my mom ordered pizza and i was like you know what, ive done SO good this whole month, i never give myself a splurge day, im going for it! So i treated myself, and i dont feel guilty about it, but thats not what im upset about.

I havent lost anything in a MONNNNNNNNNTHHH!! Im actually at a higher number than i was at the beginning of the month. I hate this shit! I work out almost EVERYDAY, which is something ive never done before. I NEVER worked out before, and never had this much dedication. When i lost the firrst 25 lbs last year, i didnt hardly exercise. maybe 1-3 a week IF that, and i was losing 1.5 lbs a week approx. sometimes more, sometimes less. But i lost 25 lbs in 4 1/2 months. This time, im already one month into it, Ive burned over 10,000 calories in not even a whole month,  just by going to the gym, ive counted my calories, and im NOT LOSING!! gaahhhh!

I feel like all my hard work is for shit and i had an easier time maintaining for the 7 months i quit losing weight. I didnt have to exercise and didnt have to focus on what i ate. I just maintained. Now im GAINING and im working my ass off! how does that add up?!

I am on my 2nd T-O-T-M which i shouldnt be, my BC is not working correctly and screwing up my hormones, but i feel like no matter what i do i wont lose. i just need some support guys.

For everyone who is participating this is week two, actually the first weigh in after the week but i guess we must call it week two!!!! hope everybody is surprised and happy about their #!

how the weigh in goes again

this weeks weigh in: (number)

last weeks weigh in: (number)

and a reminder, if you arent weighing in on this day specifically for yourself, just post your weekly weigh in #, regardless of what day you actually do it! we all wanna see everyones progress!!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

So today i did some browsing on youtube.com about the biggest loser, seeing past cast members and their successes, and i ran across another recommended youtube video: about the bodybugg. This thing is the COOOOOLEST thing ever, and i would LOOOVVVEEE to have one. If you havent heard of it i would suggest checking it out on youtube, but it is actually a device that you strap to your arm with an armband, and it monitors the calories you have burned all throughout the day. you sync it to your computer where you can add the amount of calories you have burned. Then it shows you exactly where you need to be to have the 500 calorie defecit so you can be burning. This thing actually breaks down and shows you when you have burned the calories, and such, broken down minute to minute. Sounds expensive huh!?

GUESS WHAT! IT IS!! -> 398.00 for the body bug and 3 months of the online program that you sync your system to. WTF MATE!!?!? do you think that anyone who is willing to spend 400 dollars on a tool to lose weight really only needs the bodybugg subscription for three months!?!? get a grip dumb creator of this!! grrr! so then, on top of the 398 its 30 bucks a month to continue the subscription. So 400 dollars, plus 30 a month, plus the 20-50 it costs someone to go to the gym every month…. could weight loss get anymore expensive!!!

it makes me mad people try to make so much money off of other people. grrrr! but it is a pretty cool concept.

moving on

I went to my old job today and I got so many compliments on how i look and how they can tell im losing weight!! i didnt even bring it up!! so basically the scale is just a bastard and all scales are in a coercion with my fat cells in order to keep me that way!!!! MUAHAHAHA DIE FAT CELLS!! thats what i say, and im sticking to it!

Also, at my old job, i was standing there chitchattin to my friend kim, and there was this sexy ass guy walking back and forth, with another guy. so my friend and i were googly eyeing him hehe, and she was like SAY SOMETHING TO HIM!!! so of course i was blushing, but when he walked by the next time i was like hey how you doin?! and he stopped and were talking to both of us, asked me my name, shook my hand, and gave me his number and asked for mine. He is sexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxy. And i never knew that i could pick up such men!!! honestly. i mean damn, i MUST look good!!!

TALK ABOUT THE BEST COMPLIMENT EEEEEEVVVERRRR!!

happy thursday

I bought a new scale last week because the old one crapped out on me, and i got the sensor kind that senses your BMI, hydration, bone density, and im really unhappy with it. Ive been using the scale at the gym because i know its accurate, and obviously i weigh in with a t-shirt,a tank top, a sports bra, a regular bra, shorts, and sweatpants, socks and shoes, with my ipod and phone in hand. Thats a lot of weight! but yesterday i weighed in at 178.8. Weighing myself at the gym i started at 182 and have been creeping downwards. so if i go by that scale i have to adjust my weight ticker, but i guess that number does show im losing.

i just like to weigh at home and weigh naked that way i have an ACCURATE number. what do you guys think?

If you don’t do what’s best for your body, you’re the one who comes up on the short end.

Instead of giving myself reasons why I can’t, I give myself reasons why I can.

It’s not whether you get knocked down; it’s whether you get up.

Rule your mind or it will rule you.

Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.

The road to success is dotted with many tempting parking places.

That which is bitter to endure may be sweet to remember.

The man who can drive himself further once the effort gets painful is the man who will win.

The chains of habit are generally too small to be felt until they are too strong to be broken.

The good Lord gave you a body that can stand most anything. It’s your mind you have to convince.

thank you to everyone who has been supportive and encouraging, i couldnt ask for a better network of people

i went to the gym today and stayed until i felt i was gonna keel over and i burned 850 calories!!! now im not sure how much i need to eat today, but im gonna try to keep it between 1500-1700. i can really tell a difference in my body, it is REALLY changing! i love it!

gotta go, got cleanin to do!! happy wednesday to everyone!

Hey guys!! I was supposed to be at work today till 3:30 but luckily my instructor called me and told me that he cancelled our class/work (im in grooming school with petsmart, so technically its work cuz i get paid, but it is grooming school, sort of like cosmetology school). I am so happy, now i have 3 days off in a row!! woopeee!! Today I was reading my buddys blog and found out about the book Skinny Bitch, so i went to borders to check it out, i read probably 5 chapters out of it, i dont really like it. yes, it is beneficial information about whats good for your body and what is not, but most of it is common sense to me, maybe cuz i was raised by a health crazed stepmother. but regardless, i didnt buy it. but i DID buy a journal for myself, so i can officially be held accountable for everything that goes in my mouth. I did this before when i lost the first part and this time i am wondering why i am not losing, so i think this will answer a majority of my questions. I am ALSO going to cut out pictures of clothes i wanna wear, including swimsuits, dresses, etc. Its going to be kind of a weightloss scrapbook to keep myself motivated and keep myself held accountable!! Fun AND helpful!

I have been searching EVERY website that calculates  your excersize, and how much you weigh, height and age, and all the sites seem to think that i should be eating 2700 calories approx. to maintain my weight. NO WAY. not even possible, if i ate 2700 calories a day i would gain like crazy. Even subtracting the “500 deficiency” to lose weight, it is stills saying i should eat 2200 calories to lose weight. that doesnt even make sense in my mind. Yes, I am working out 6 days a week and burning between 500-700 calories each time, but jeez, my body will NOT burn 2200 calories a day. i know my body too well. I also talked to Michelle on here, who is a personal trainer, and she told me to eat more. I did for two days and “thought” i noticed a difference, but then the next 2 days i am feeling a weight gain. so i DUNNO. My body is just so crazy. Im on birth control, and (sorry for graphics) i bleed through it in the middle. so its like i have a semi small period once a month, and then a regular one. this jsut doesnt make sense. maybe i should just quit taking it, bear through the cramps… because i got on it so that i wouldnt have the drastic weight gain and loss every time i got my period, but jeez… this is worse!

so i have listened to michelle and i am TRYING to get myself to up my calories a little bit. Im going to try 1500-1700 daily and see how my body reacts. I just dont believe that my body, with the very slow metabolism that it has, will lose eating more than that.

we shall see!! HAPPY SNOW DAY EVERYONE!

we have another weigh in this friday for everyone that is participating!

okay, so i havent been a good buddy cuz ive been so preoccupied with the stupid scale. I panicked when the scale didnt move, and i felt the time ticking at me that i wasnt losing fast enoughh, and honestly i havent been a whole lot this month, but i am working out and eating right, and cut out the alcohol so the weight loss must come soon. sorry for being so crazed

This is the first weigh in for my community weigh in group!!! i guess we need a name for ourselves… ill take any suggestions!!

this is how everyone should post

Weekly weigh in: ( put amount here)

last week’s weigh in: (put amount here)

As i said before, everyone can keep their normal weigh in days, but just post them when i put this up either thursday night or friday!! looking forward to see everyones initial weigh ins!

Loni xoxo

I had an idea that if we all got together, who ever wanted to, and did weigh in days all together, that we would feel alot more motivated to be on target on that weigh in day, and we would also feel alot more like a team!!! so… as of now i will make the official weigh in day friday. that way, we have done good ALL week, and we can weigh in, which gives us a little leniency over the weekend, and give us the next week to kick it back in gear. i know there are some people on here that give themselves more calories on the weekends.

so how this will work is i will write a blog on friday or thursday night saying WEEKLY COMMUNITY WEIGH-IN. then whoever is in this they can comment on the blog saying their weight last week and their current weight. then everyone can see everyones success, and have a little bit more accountability. if you guys wanna do this please comment!!!

Oh-and for the people that have set their weigh-ins for different days, just post that # for that week. so if i put up the blog on friday, friday just post your weighin for that week. that way, nobody has to change their weigh-in day, but we can all see each others progress and keep each other held accountable!
