2 More days.

So in two days I have my next weigh in, I am not too shabby about it. I cheated this week because I was so stressed and I know that is obviously not an excuse to do it, the Hot Cheetos were so good though! hahaha but I really felt guilty after I did the bad deed :( I know that we all have our ups and downs, and this was obviously one of my downs and hopefully one of my last! I have been working my ass off since I feel as if i gained the 5lbs that I lost I might just be freaking out but I weighed myself 2 days ago and my weight was off the scale said that I had gone up like 2lbs :/ and I know that we all fluctuate but how can I go up 2lbs by some chips? UGH! I just really hope that I lose those 2lbs again between these next few hours that are left in this Sunday and Tuesday morning. wish me luck! I'll let you all know how it goes on Tuesday! :)

Week 7

So here's to a new stronger me. I just went to the doctor for my weigh in and lost 3.8 lbs :)! I am very excited about. I have now set a goal of how much weight I want to lose every 6 weeks, and I want to lose between 15-20lbs every six weeks :). I am 20 lbs lighter than i was when I started the program that I am on :). I am so excited about doing this and this week is going to be super hard for me, I know that i need to lose AT LEAST 5lbs, and being that I cheated a little on Saturday I dont know how well that will work lol, but i home that it did not set me back too much :). Ugh okay so i bought Jillian Michaels 30 day shred:| KICKS MY ASS not kidding she is not playing in these vids ahaha but I would recommend it, I only bought it because Summer semester is going to start again and I know that i need to have a back up plan because I might not be able to go to teh gym everyday and im shooting to 40 minutes or more a exercise 5-6 times a weeks, as you all can see I am very dedicated to this program, and although it does get hard at times I'm willing to keep it up :) well I will let you know how work, dinner and the workout goes tonight :)!

The start

Hey guys I am starting this blog to keep me more on track on my weight loss than I am now. I recently started seeing a weight loss specialist in my area. I am on a high protein pretty much no sugar, not really any carbs either. I take a protein supplement in the morning and they have great choices(shakes in vanilla, strawberry or chocolate which can also be made into puddings. Oatmeal and protein bars.) I choose one of them for breakfast my favorite is probably the vanilla shake b.c you can have it with diet root beer soda and it tastes just like a root beer float but guiltless! But right now I'm stuck on the Apple cinnamon oatmeal :) and for lunch i choose another supplement (which i usually choose the chicken noodle soup) that has to be accompanied by either 3 cups of vegetables or a salad, and for dinner 3 cups of vegetables and 6-7 ounces of protein (i.e. fish, shrimp, chicken any kind of seafood and only certain cuts of beef) Here's a little on my background, I was never really over weight growing up, but then I got sick (which i'd really rather not talk about.) but i had to start taking steroids to fight off this infection that I had, and well as we all know steroids make you gain weight. So here I am now just turned 21 years old in March and finally decided to get my life straight and try and get back to my normal size with is between 135-140 rather than just feeling depressed because my weight gain was not my fault. I figured that i'm wasting more energy being mad at the situation that I was pushed into than actually doing something about it. Since I have been seeing this doctor I have lost 16lbs so far and i started seeing him on March 25,2010 I go for my next weigh in on May 5, 2010 (and I am about 4.8lbs down from my last weigh in) my goal for these two weeks before my weigh in was 7 lbs so PLEASE keep your fingers crossed that i make that goal! Anyway...PMSING totally blows I hate dieting when its that time of the month it makes everything SOOOOOOO much harder than it should be haha but I am staying strong i recently discovered that Crystal Light makes these sugar free fruit chews which are realllllly goood and pretty much guilt free, now with the diet regimen that I'm doing I;m not supposed to have any sugar but these chews do not have sugar, anyway they have a few carbs but one or two do the job for me! I know that in order for this diet that I am on to really work I really need to do cardio, and well i dont always have time to go to the gym, I go to school full time and I work full time, so now that Spring semester is over I have 4 weeks before Summer semester starts again. So I have time to go to the gym right now but once school starts again even though I'm only going to school part time I still dont really have time, so I was thinking of either buying Slim in 6 or Turbo Jam, so if any of you have used it please let me know how they work for you. I am doing some more research before I decide to buy either one.



Well until next time :) Ill keep you posted on my weigh in's and things :)
