is a really strange thing sometimes! I`ve been working really hard for a while to keep the weight off and lose a little more. I found as long as I worked really hard on it, I managed to stay the same weight or lose some, but very little, but each time I slipped and ate just a little too much, it immediately caused me to gain a pound or two.
These past few days though, I`ve been superstressed and tired and almost gave up on my weightgoals for a few days. I`ve eaten tons of pizza, crisps and cashews. So today, I was really scared to get on the scales and see what damage I had done through that. But, to my great surprise, I`ve lost about 3 pounds! My BMI is now 20.9, my lowest since I was a teenager I think. I have absolutely no idea how that happened. Maybe stuffing myself with crisps and pizza is my secret weightloss recepie! ;) Anyway, I`m very happy about it! And that was the motivation I needed to get me out of the “eat anything unheathy in sight” mood I was in. I`m very happy with my weight right now. But I know from experience that if I don`t stay focused, the weight will come creeping back on incredibly fast. So I`ll have to eat better again from now on.

to keep this up these days, when life is difficult in general it`s so very tempting to get back to my old habits of emotional eating. But I have managed to avoid doing that too much, and I`m keeping up my rule of no eating after 7.30, with only a few exeptions. So my BMI is still 21.2. I`ve promised myself I`m not going to add gaining the weight back to all my other problems, so I`ll just have to stay focused on this!
to have all my top 10 goals on the list, and organize my list more. And I have one similar to this, so I`m putting this one under “I`ve done this”. My BMI is well within the healthy range now, and has been throughout most of the year. But I`m going to put this one under “I want to do this again”, just to stay on the team, which is great! ;)
Three days of nonstop eating combined with a week of no exercise because of an annoying cold definitely isn`t a good thing for my weight. I`ve gained 4 pounds. ouch!
But it`s no big deal really, I`m guessing I`m not the only person with that problem right now. ;)
I`ll just have to limit the christmas food eating now, and get back on track in january.
I`m not gaining weight these days! BMI still 21.8. Which makes no sense really, I`ve been feeling sick and down and I have not been as good with this as I used to at all. Less exercise and more food. And more beer, although not too much. But I guess some of my new healthy habits keeps me reasonably healthy even when I feel like I`m not doing well at all. I am getting some exercise, I`ve usually managed a couple of times a week. And I still don`t eat after 8 pm. And I generally only eat chips and things like that on the weekends.
Still, I might ofcourse be losing water and muscle and gaining some fat. And I would like to get back on track with things before the weight starts creeping back on, and my body is craving more exercise! And I more often keep eating after I`m full now, which I don`t like, even though I`m generally overeating reasonably healthy things at least.
I`ve lost 42 pounds in about 6 months. Which means I`m only one pound away from my goal weight! ;) I still look at the numbers on the scale and have a hard time believing this is actually my weight. And I`m loving it!
It was a bit over 28 when I started losing weight in April, so I`m thrilled with this! ;) Only problem is, I hardly have any clothes now that doesn`t look ridiculously huge on me, so I`ll need to save money on other things to be able to afford a new wardrobe! But hey, I`m not complaining. ;)
I`ve tried working out with a salsa workout dvd today. It was awful, the worst salsa music I`ve heard in ages and just not a good workout. So tomorrow: back to the gym! And on sunday I`ll treat my dogs to an extra long walk in the forest, good for all three of us.
with this! I`ve managed to get control of my eating again and lost the three pounds I gained. BMI 22.2 now.
It is much harder these days than it used to be though. I`m still quite stressed, and I feel hungry all the time! It really is frustrating, because it makes me wonder if I can keep this up over time, it really is a lot harder not to overeat now than it has been for the past 6 months. I wonder why that is? Is it just my desire to comfort myself with food in times of stress that sets in? Or does my body try to get more calories when I`m feeling stressed or down?
Must keep working on making the right choices every day though, it`s the only way to do this.
