Its been rough! but im still staying positive.

Hey everyone. Just wanted to let you all know how i have been doing. Ever since i stepped on that scale sunday before last, i have had a rough time staying within my points. I watched the biggest loser tonight an it was so inspiring to watch these people. Every week i think of how nice it would be to be in their shoes. I keep thinking every time i watch it that i want to get back on track and lose more weight but the more i leave the house, the more i want to eat out and i cant do that anymore. Its ruining my life. So, what ive decided to do to help me stay on track an motivate me is to make a goal for the first day of fall to lose 30 pounds an to hopefully be in a size 14. I am going to buy me a pair of "Goal Jeans" and hopefully be in them when fall comes around. I am also going to be buying some things off of etsy.com. I would love to buy some things that i can wear when fall comes (just accessories in case i dont lose the weight). It would be awesome to be 175 pounds. Lets hope i can do it. If i do, my reward will be a killer halloween costume. Im so siked. So, i will be putting up a new video soon on my youtube. I dont know if i will be back down to 200.8 when i do my next video on may 11th, but i hope that i am much more close than i am now (206.5). I will talk to you all later and i hope everyone is doing well. Take care :)

Early WI, A shock and how i gained.

well, i must say i am a little upset because friday i wanted to weigh in a little early, which i didnt think would be a big deal, but all it did was get my hopes up because i weighed in at 206.0 i was so excited. now i weight 211.6 again. the scale is slowly moving down and im super excited to see more of a loss come next week. lets hope that my doctors appointment goes well on weds. i will update then and let everyone know how it went.

211.6

well, let me say this morning i woke up and was super siked. i was 211.6. thats a little loss, but not much. i heard that weight drops a lot slower after your first couple of weeks so i guess you could say i prepared myself for that ahead of time. im super excited about the loss and i hope that i can keep it up. also, as im losing weight slowly, i notice that its easier to keep off and i dont gain it back. i always used to gain my weight back before. this time im really going to keep with it. so, about 11.6 more pounds and im under 200. Woohoo! ive been waiting forever for that day. updated photos coming soon. :)

213.2 and Size 16

Wow! i cant believe it. i woke up this morning and was 213.2! i havent been that low in weight in a long time. its so exciting to see such a huge loss since ive started this journey. ive learned so much about eating healthy and ive learned to stick to it even though ive wanted to quit so many times. slow, steady weight loss is the key. ive also learned to be patient at seeing results. its not going to happen overnight. i went to walmart a couple of nights ago to get groceries. i wanted to try on a pair of jeans and i fit into a size 16. thats amazing. i never thought that with 20 pounds lost id drop a size. im so excited. they were even a tad bit baggy in the legs. ive never been this happy with myself and i hope that this can inspire some of you to be patient while you lose your weight. good things do happen if you keep with it. :)

PMS

i hate having my period. i never lose any weight that whole week, but its ok because im looking forward to the following week and a great loss. water retention is not my favorite thing. i try not to eat so much sodium during the week of my period and i try to drink more water.. not sure if that helps or not, but ill give it a shot. i have been working out on the treadmill alot more. yesterday, i walked on the treadmill an hour during the day and 30 mins at night for a total of 4.5 miles. im so excited that im finally getting off of my butt and exercising. i love losing weight and becoming a healthier person. i just hope i can keep it up :)
