lose 20 lbs as quickly as possible!

I’m 224 again and I keep letting myself do this and it only seems like it’s wishful thinking. It’s not like I haven’t tried, I cut out all soda from my diet and I’m eating healthier (tho portion sizes is what’s killing me) and I’ve walked three miles twice a week. I’m actually surprised I didn’t loose any weight even though I have a portion sized trouble area. I’ve eaten just as much and still lost a lot of weight one year I went from a size 17/18 jeans to a size 10 and now it’s like my body is saying #@&% you.
I want to be down to 160 or possibly a size 12 (at least)by the end of the summer and then during the fall/winter/spring months work on getting down to a BMI of 28. I don’t want to be skinny I want to be healthy and at the weight I am my doctor wants my to be tested for Diabetes. I’m afraid of what the test will tell me so I don’t want to do it even tho I know I should so if I can loose a massive amount of weight before my next Doctors appointment maybe it won’t be a problem, I know wishful thinking again but I want to see what my doctor says after I loose the necessary pounds. I don’t think I’m the only one who’s ever felt this way, and probably not the last.

I’m 214 now =)
I started a diet called the paleo diet
and I walk more dance more and just move around more.

220
^^ I’m gaining again and I want to prove to myself and my doctor I’m capable of loosing the weight. I”m down at my sister pretty much from MOnday-Thursday and I’m given the oppurtunity to shop for the weeks food and to go for walks without worrying about whether or not I’m going to get hit by a logging truck. I got a Wii for Christmas and even the minor movement in Wii Sports is a lot more movement then I have been doing…sadly.
Right now I’m looking at how to shop on a budget because I figured out my sisters budget per week for food and that is $80.75 that has to last four people.
I’m going to be making juice rather then buying it so I can buy apples and oranges and all those and whatever is left over after making the juice we can eat. I figured it’s healthy and cheaper at the same time.

Camping can be harsh on you when you’re trying to eat healthier and loose some weight. Although the great outdoors as many possibilities for you to burn those excess calories it just sucks when you don’t have the energy to go out on a hike or do some other outdoor activity.
Summer itself is a tremendous strain on any diet…well for me at least. It doesn’t help that I have access to the coastal parts of Maine and I’m sure any lobster lovers out there will agree with me that it’s hard to pass up a Maine Lobster especially from a Maine Lobster Pound. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. Then there’s tomorrow…for two weeks I’ve been “camping” (we’re staying in a cabin that has electricity, cable TV and air conditioning..it’s not exactly camping.) in Pennsylvania and so far I’ve been to many various places like Hershey, tomorrow I’m going to be in Philly and yeah any diet plan I made up for myself will be put on hold that day because I am not going to Philladelphia and not have a Philly Cheese Steak. After tomorrow though I’m going back to eating healthy and excersing some more. We’re going camping in New Hampshire for two weeks starting on the 20th and that campsite has some trails so I’m going to be hiking quite a bit while I’m there…thank god for MP3’s musci always makes things seem to go faster <33

Okay not exactly 10 pounds more like 7 but that’s good enough for me and that fact that I lost 7 pounds in a span of 5 months proves that I’m doing this at a healthy pace…at least I think so. I’m not loosing 20 pounds in a month that’s just horrible.

Tomorrow I have a doctors appointment and I will then no for sure how much weight I really lost. My home scale adds 100 pounds and we don’t know how to fix that and Victor’s scale (my mom’s boyfriend) is iffy sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. Today it decided to actually work but if it gave me the correct wieght is another story. I started this goal out as 224 and now the scale says 214 and yes if it’s true I’ll be ecstatic!!! Thank-god I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow then I will know for sure how much I weigh really. I’ll give you updates tomorrow when I get home.

I’ve been slacking on my healthy eating. Summers coming and that means my infamous fried chicken which unfotunatley the way I make it is very unhealthy and probably clogs some auteries (is that how you spell it? Oh well). My mom’s boyfriend takes us out to eat all the time and things like steak tempt me so much I end up giving in and ordering it. I need to learn how to control my temptations and order something healthier, steak and lobster is good and all but only in moderation.

see it’s not the pounds that bother me..well it is and it isn’t. Mucsle ways more then fat. It’s the fact I’m 5’9” 224 lbs. and I’m 46-37-45.5
I’m chunky and I barely ever fit my clothes. and it’s effcting my health. I want to loose 20 pounds to start off with. but to reach my target goal I’ll have to loose like 65-70.
