Not dead.. again..

So, I made this blog and I felt like I really did keep up. I liked it, and it did help with my motivation. And I stopped.. Not only did I stop this blog, I didnt work as hard on my working out. To be honest, I’ve gone 3 times in the month of may. WHY? I’m paying for this gym membership, why am I not going?

I’m about to make myself accountable again. I think its save to say, I lost the challenge I sent myself. Its also save to say instead of weighing my 226, I’m up at 228.8.

If I were to go back up to 230, it would be failure. I know its a high possibility, seeing as I’m going on vacation next week to visit my boyfriend. And there WILL be alot of eating out. But, I must promise myself to not go crazy. This is MY LIFE. This is MY HAPPINESS. These things are important to me! They need to be!
I’m going to post everyday again, even if I have to force myself.

Size 16 Jeans.

This is actually amazing for me. I don’t remember the last time I went shopping for jeans, and I was a size 16! I think the last jeans I bought about 3-4 years ago were size 20. No name. No brand. Old. I wear them today, and the look huge around my legs.

And now, SIZE 16 PANTS? This is amazing to my brain. This opens my clothing shopping ALREADY to 2193821 more places. I am going to hold off on the buying new clothes.. I just needed another pair of jeans that FIT for my job.

Remember my post on the beginning of March? Where I promised myself I wouldn’t give in to not being motivated. I lied.

I haven’t worked out very much.. Specially this job. Its NO excuse. I don’t want excuses, and I wont let myself listen to this excuse anymore. I have been doing very good with my diet (except for yesterday were I SHARED a piece of cake with my friend), but, I haven’t been doing well with going to the gym. I’m going to be starting my gym power again tomorrow.

I didn’t weight myself last tuesday. I think we might as well just wait for this coming up tuesday, because I mean, its already saturday!

PS – I got this new excited ACAI thing for my smoothies. I’m excited to try it out.

Update #5

Today I decided I’m a fruitarian til dinner time. We started the day off with tons of yummy kiwis.. Just when they are about to get soft.. Thats when I like them best. Then I had a banana, and now I’m having some raspberries! For dinner, I’m going to eat whatever everyone else is eating.. I can only eat fruit during the day, because seriously, I like my foods. hahaha

I was going to do the C25K challenge, but then I found something else called 2010 in 2010. 2010 Miles in 2010! I know I won’t get anywhere near 2010 miles this year… It would be 6 miles a day. Today I did 3, and almost died. haha. So, I’m basically moving up a mile a day. I couldnt run that far today.. It hurt my legs so bad.

Running – 25 minutes – 1.05 miles!

Elliptical – 30 minutes intervals – 2 miles!

Weight lifting – mainly legs.. – 20 minutes

Weightloss Goals

I haven’t really talked about my goals, or what I want to lose. As I said in my first post, I am overweight. I stand at 5’7-5’8 and weigh about 230 pounds. Most of my fat is in my stomach (blah!), And personally I would rather have fat around my neck then there.

My goal is really to try and lose 2 pounds a week.. Or 10 pounds a month. My goal weight is to lose 100 pounds.. In a year.

I’ve been a yo-yo dieter, and have been someone who starts something but doesnt complete it. I really feel motivated most days now.. Most days meaning I do crack and eat some fries and ice cream, but I’m usually top of my game.

I’m only 19, so losing weight is something that if I want to do it, I better do it now. I want to be able to wear a bikini in my life while I’m still young! I want that super hot body, and I am determined to get it.

So 10 pounds a month, then maintain, and tone. Maybe I’ll be happy before 100 pounds? I just want this tummy gone!

Eat, Shrink & Smile.

Welcome to my little part on the web.. Its also my weightloss blog.

I need help keeping motivated, and what I need help with is eating, shrinking, and keeping smiling (Grammar? I dont care). And what the title is, its exactly what I want to do.

Currently I’m overweight.. I weighed in at the gym with 238.5! Gross! I don’t feel like a fat person.. I know thats stupid to say, but there is people who are happy to be fat. I don’t look at myself at fat, but the scale says otherwise!

I want to try and lose 10 pounds a month, I don’t know if thats really realistic, But I will try! I go and exercise at least for one hour a day (today was a rest day ) and have currently been doing this for a week or two?

I am truely doing this for appearance issues. I have crazy insecure.. I just want to ‘feel’ beautiful, and being skinny, or skinnier is really something I think I need to do that. Disagree? I don’t care, this is my journey.

Well, theres my short intro.. So lets get started. I hope to maybe meet a few friends while I do this.. and I hope i’m successful!
