lose weight

I am finding this goal one of the hardest things to do!! and i found out why. i have an overeating disorder! i didn’t completely realize it but i knew my eating habits weren’t right. i generally eat healthy, but i eat way too much. if i wasn’t as active as a am, i would be obese (SCAREY!!). i think i will go in for behavioral therapy. 80% of the time it is supposed to work for overeaters, so here i go…

man i looked in the mirror this morning, and i mean i REALLY looked, and what i saw, i didn’t like at all.. i mean it’s a wonder i haven’t died of a heart attack yet or something. i saw my body for what it was, for real. it sucked.i didn’t know that i was that fat! guess i have a little more motivation now….

does anyone know of a good yoga video for beginners?? i really loved yoga when i tried it but the place i went to closed down
:(.. sides it was soo beneficial to me! during some of my workouts i would burn like 600 cals.. that’s why i would love to try it again

So i started eating healthier just under a month ago and i’v lost about 3 pounds.. not that great but not bad either seeing as it’s quite hard for me to change my lifestyle alot.. haha must think baby steps!!! I kinda went a little wild last week and took a diet vacation lol -whoops. it’s okay though, the damage isn’t too bad, i think i lost a little muscle tone :( well i guess i’ll just move on, done is done! the thing is is that i’m not defeated until i say i am! – i’ve been back again on my healthy diet for 2 days now – yay for me for coming back :) good luck everyone! *remember perseverance ppl

I don’t really know what’s happening with my wieght, but it appears that i have magically lost another pound.. after eating out last night. my weight seems to be bouncing all over the place these last couple of days and i have no idea why… i wiegh at the same time in the morning everyday, before i drink or eat anything. i think it might be attributed to gaining some muscle mass but i just don’t know what’s going on. What i do know though is that i feel really good from exercising almost everyday :).

well.. this losing wieght section is being taken over by people who only think that they need to lose wieght.. huh. none of my business what you guys do, but jeez u piss me off sometimes! I’m like trying my best and then i see someone that is the same hieght as me… and wieghs SIXTY POUNDS lighter than me and is whining about how gross their body is… and i’m not that incredibly fat…. I’m doing this for my health, but man it really doesn’t help the self esteem to see so many people that are in the normal range distressed out of their minds about their “fat” bodies. Makes me feel like a huge freaking whale.. Thanks guys. In any case I hope that those who feel the same way i do don’t get too down on themselves. And i know that the rest of you didn’t mean to hurt anyone else.. Peaceout peeps n have a wonderful day.

Wooo HOOO! I’m still going good! i lost another pound and a half. I haven’t wieghed this much for years! i’m so stoked… i feel so much better now that i’ve been eating healthy foods and watching my calories.. man i tried to eat a donut yesterday, but i couldn’t even finish it because it was too sweet. how awesome is that I’m almost off the sugar train :)

does anyone have any suggestions to keep my metabolism from slowing down?? I’m currently eating about 1700 calories a day to lose a pound a week (the number of calories changes to less everytime i lose weight).. but i don’t think i will because my metabolism is probably slowing down… any tips???

well.. so far i’v lost 2 1/2 pounds. i just have to remember to be patient enough to see this through!! My calorie log is going really well, it makes me accountable for what i eat… and i have to say, i’m eating so much healthier than i used to and it feels good. the odd day i get a craving and i only sometimes indulge IF i have enough calories left and i have eaten enough healthy foods already.. on those days i exercise a little more anyways :). usually i aim for going to the gym 3 days a week and going swimming 3 days a week.. it’s goin pretty good. before i started the calorie log i started to exercise like this and lost 4 pounds in two and a half weeks without even really changing my diet.. so in total, i’ve lost 6 1/2 pounds in around 3 weeks. I’m so excited!! (although i haven’t really noticed a difference in physical appearance yet…it’ll come i’m sure)

today, i started a food journal and have started to keep track of all my calories.It’s kinda exciting because i’ve never tried this before… i think that i did pretty well but that i could do better. we will see how tomorrow goes :) peace out till next time and good luck with your goals ppl!
