Hello healthy ones!

Well today is my weigh in and i am down 1.5 pounds. Total of 9 pounds since i started 3 weeks ago cutting out ALL processed foods and refined carbs.

No exercise.

Just munched on cucumber and cream cheese. Yummy!

A few weeks ago I set a goal for myself...lose the last 25 lbs by the time I turn 35 years old. So far I'm down 8 lbs :thumbsup:

I seem to have forgotten all my healthier ways. Time to figure out what is going on and get back on track. I suspect there will be journaling and maybe some meditation. Oh.... not doing those things may have something to do with not taking care of myself.

Thanks for helping me work through this. :)

Carbs, Carbs, Carbs...I have to weigh in today. I should be on track but do not expect any weight loss from the last week. Its been a carb week.

I am back to lean proteins and lots of vegetables mostly in the form of soups that I make every day.

One thing that is constant with me: Daily affirmations, getting enough water, lots of hot sauce to boost metabolism and because I love it, and never, ever, ever sitting down after a meal. That last piece alone makes all the difference in the world.

So even if I go off track, or off the rails for a day ;) if I keep up the behaviors that work I can find my way back.

I *HAVE* to get back on track... we were doing so good making our morning superfood smoothies and eating right. I even managed to give up Diet Coke, but we've fallen right back into old habits. And we're planning on Ft Lauderdale over spring break so I don't have much time! :blink:

starryeyes 11-29-2012 12:24 PM

I'm back on track for the 2nd day! I can do this!

girl_dee 12-04-2012 01:28 PM

12 pounds gone never to return again! A tiny bit more to be at my goal !

To a Healthy Life and Prosperous New Year
 
So as most of you know I am very physically active. I do triathlons, marathons, and lots of cycling.

Well at this time of the year its now the "Off Season" alot of us become lazy because of the holidays etc. I have a horrible sweet tooth. I am planning on keeping it at bay.

I am having some major surgery at the end of this year. So as my plan is, I will be taking probably most if not the entire season off of training in 2013.

So with that being said, my coach and no nutritionist is going to be setting up a meal plan for me.

I just started this new system yesterday and so far I am feeling more energized.

It's the Paleo Diet "Caveman Diet" I am on a modified version due to medical reasons. The goal is to keep me lean but lose as much body fat as I can.

I am going to start a transformation album so everyone can see my progress.

What basically is the Caveman Diet? is that like the GOD Diet? Anything made my *God* is ok?

Good Morning Healthies!

Went to get my cast off yesterday, and they put another on ...
It isn't easy *but* i am still doing my workouts (well, what i can do anyway lol) , and staying on track with meals.
Juggling nursing school, work, life has also been a challenge and while i don't report as often as i did, i *am* on track...

Its final exams time, i'm doing really well despite that stress..
And my 16 yr old daughter is adding stress to that pile. (teenagers!!)
recognizing my strengths and coping mechanisms, and not stress eating.

Breathing, much meditation, writing, time with nature & exercise..
Keep at it everyone..Sharing your strengths & challenges helps inspire another to keep working at it.. (like me)
You all rock!

Good morning healthies!

It has been a while since my last confession...oh, wrong venue!

I really have nothing to confess-well actually I do. As I have posted, it had (note the past tense "had") been at least 9-months since I had any sweets, of any kind, at all.

I had the weirdest thing happen last night! Things are going great for me. I am finally getting the hang of my new job, I have a new potential love in my life-a truly wonderful butch lesbian who is crazy about me-things in general, are going smoothly right now.

I had bought a couple of tins of those Danish butter cookies, put Christmas cards on them and bows to give to a couple of my neighbors. These neighbors had brought my trash cans up from the street for at least 3-months, without bring asked, after my surgeries earlier this year.

The cookies had been sitting on my dining room table for two weeks. I had not even noticed them until last night.

All of a sudden, last night, I started to obsess about them. Tried all of my tricks to change my thought patterns to think of other things and I just had to have a cookie!

I ripped one tin open and like the sweets addict that I am, probably ate 6-8 of them before my brain kicked in again and said: "WTF, these don't even taste that good, stop it".

I put my robe on and put them in the trunk of my car.

I can never, ever, buy or bring sweets in my house!! Now, I am working on breaking that thought pattern of total fail for doing this and getting right back on track.

What usually derails me (by history) is not a one-time of going off the rails but the aftermath of feeling so badly about it! I am working on putting it in perspective (a one-time fail does not mean giving up or berating myself until I feel hopeless and do it again).

I still have 12-pounds to go. Sounds so easy but after losing 50, for me: they are the hardest.

My body holds onto fat with a death-grip.

Now I have to buy another damn tin, put the card and bow on it and give them to the neighbors today. The open tin will go to work for the employees or if I am tempted again, I will have to fill it with water and throw it in the trash.

Confession over. I feel better now.

Sylvie I am so proud of you. I think of you often for inspiration. {{{Hugs}}}

So I'm down 10 lbs with 4.5 weeks left :cheesy:

It'll be tough around Christmas time with the family...but hopefully my willpower doesn't run out!

sylvie 12-08-2012 04:56 PM

Cant tell you how many times i say to myself i can handle it, so the children can have something and then before you know it i'm filling my garbage can in tears and being hard on myself..

:girleating:

::: squishy hugs :::

girl_dee 12-11-2012 10:38 AM

Weekly weigh in ~

still at same weight, no loss no gain.

i'll take it!

Enjoying the Atkins way and adding some fruit and more carbs daily, but nothing processed.

i'm proud of myself!

Have a great day everyone!

Miss Scarlett 12-11-2012 11:30 AM

That's great Dee...half the battle is building rather than beating ourselves up.

I'm pleased at my own recent progress in that as of this morning having shed 14 of the 20 lbs I regained over the summer. Looking forward to getting back in to my "almost skinny" jeans...LOL See my weight loss doc on Friday...I just love that man.

Andrea 12-12-2012 07:35 AM

I am here to pat myself on the back. :) I am eating healthy and getting in some exercise, in spite of events attempting to dissuade me.

I did indulge in Sprouts vanilla sandwich creme cookies last night but stopped when the need for them eased. I think I ended up eating six. It felt good to 'hear' my need, find a solution, and then 'hear' when to stop. I call this progress.

Now if only I had this type of control of the events pulling me in other directions.......

girl_dee 12-12-2012 09:48 AM

Yay Miss Scarlett!! 14 pounds is over a dress size!

Andrea there is a theory that suggests that after a 3
bite rule. After 3 bites the craving is physically satisfied, so eating more than that isn't going to satisfy the craving 'more'.

Just a thought :)

Guess I shouldn't eat them two at a time. LOL

Progress comes in many forms. Today I put on some jeans I have not worn in a while due to how tight they felt. No grunting, no sucking in the belly.... Score one for me. :nixon:
