180's club

anyone in the 180's and wanna join me for support? hopefully we'll be able to move down the 170's, 160's and 150's (if you wanna go that far) together!!!

188  Whew!

 

still feeling my stupid sinus infection, other then that doing great.  Kind of had a date on Thursday... might see him again.

 

Today is Nunchuku festival... I am going to say to my shy boy, "well you never called, so I guess your not interested, no hard feeling sweety!"  If he says, what oh no that's not it then we go to lunch, if he smiles and nods I call someone else!

 

186.5 Oh ya!  (this is 2 days after my last post... from Sat-Mon)

Been Vegitarian for ~3 weeks!!!!  WOOO HOO!!!

Had Lunch with Shy Boy, asked him to call me on Easter to see if we could do something after he saw his sister...

He never called.

I don't get it.  I mean this guy Likes me.  He likes me so much that he kind of turns a bit retarded.  Him and Mike were on their way out I ran and caught up and said, "I'm Starving" they said, "Come with us to Swing Thai!" 

He was all grins and happiness.  The grins and happiness of a guy that when you turn your back is going to click his heels together with giddy joy.  And we had a wonderfull Lunch.  I think I scare the hell out of him.  Mike was playing the wing guy, keeping the conversation going... doing his best to help out Chad... Mike is ~45 a bit too old for me.  Chad said, "I wish I could tell stories like you guys, I can't think of anything that funny that happened when I was a kid."  And so me and Mike say, "oh come on!"  And so Chad told this fairly embarrasing story.    Poor guy.  I think I just have to be patient with him.  Untill he understand that I like him for who he is, not what he thinks he should be. 

awww...lol

 

good stuff

Finally into the 160s now! was 169 this morning.  Almost 15lbs down.

I'm still plateauing around 180, and today I was 179.8, but my calories today are low by my standards, beneath 1300, for once.  Maybe I'm remotivated to succeed in my overall life change.  All i need is a bunch more water, and I should be set.

190 Agg My weight is going up and down so fast I am getting dizzy!  It's good though, generaly if I play my cards right this means I am about to loose a good chunk. 

Had a Date with a NOT very shy boy last night.  We had been chatting and stuff on a date sight for a while.  Pretty good kisser.  :) 

I kind of feel guilty though, like I should be holding out for shy boy... but why should I pledge my er loyalty to him when he doesn't even call me?

Lilsmiter - go out, have fun.  It's his loss, not yours.

I"m still at 180, and it's a pain.  I'm blaming it on the totm, that hasn't started yet... (ooo i should check that...).  I'm cramping and tired like I'm on my period, not like I... uh... yeah.

Oh well.  I'll go workout, probably jog a few miles today.  Because apparently walking isn't doing anything.

I've come up with this theory. Birthday parties, eating out, and anything that involves 'treats' makes me gain weight. My sister turned 18 over the weekend. I went from 175.8 to 178.0 Woo.

On the plus side, I went and worked out last night, even though my boy was LAZY and didn't go with me. Hmph.

Lilsmiter~ Go have fun. Shyboy will either get over it and call you, or not. And like Leo said, his loss!

Hi!  Haven't visited here in a little while... 172.6 last week and 172.8 this morning.  Ugggh. 

Leo - I feel that exact same way as you do... I'm having cramps and tired, but it's not my totm yet.  Feel bloated and fat and didn't lose any weight this week. 

Lilsmiter - I enjoy reading your posts, they're so cute.  If "shy boy" can't get his act together and show you some interest by calling you, don't waste your time.  You deserve better than waiting around for someone that can't get the balls to call you.  Been there (when I was much younger), and it's not worth it.  If the other guy is interested and you like him, don't feel guilty.  Just be happy.

Best thing about a period that hasn't started yet is that I get an adult excursion that I would have had to wait for until the weekend.  Nuff said.

I GOT A JOB!!!!!  Good news is, it's a job.  Bad news is, I'm a cashier at a buffet.  Anyone heard of the Golden Corral?  It's a chain primarily found in the Southeast, serving every salty, fried item you can find.  It's got a nice salad bar, though, and I expect to use it if I work an 8 hour shift (like this sunday).

I'll check my weight again in the morning...  PLEASE GIVE ME 178-179!!!!  I'm thinking my scale isn't doing its job, because it gave me three different weights this morning.  I only chose 180 because it was the most consistent.  Weighing myself 5 times, I had gotten 178, 182, 180, 180.1, and 179.8.  So I am guessing I'm around 180.  First paycheck = pay bills & buy new scale.  & send the old one to my parents' house.  My parents' scale, while consistently so, is 3 pounds off, with no re-calibration tab.  Sometimes I forget about the 3-pound issue, and ask myself, WTF? when I see 185 lb.  Besides, my dad is worried about his weight and their digital scale displays ERROR over 300 lb.

Studying this week is impeding my workout schedule.  If I feel up to it after work this weekend, I'll spend a few hours in the gym.  It'll be the best time for me to do it.

Leo- Congrats on the new job! I am way too familiar with the Golden Corral... when my hubby and I first moved to Orlando we had one right down the street and went there way more often than we should have. I'm assuming that a few of my extra pounds came from there and the other buffet places. No more buffets for us. Can't even remember the last time we've been to one. :)

172.0 lbs. this morning!

186.2 this morning... :p

Thanks K9! Gratz LEO!

Tonight I have Black Belt Sparring... Yippie! Course I have been working like a Dog all day, so my feet hurt and I am exhausted. Perfact time to get hit in the face. lol

Well the good news is I do get to see Shy Boy. Who knows maybe I can coax a kiss out of him, Maybe he'll be too beat up to run in fear?

Other then that I DO have the wonderfull privelage of getting to come into work on Saturday, maybe Sunday. There is a Gigantic project that dropped from the sky that needs to be done yesterday. Guess who gets to handle it? :) Naw it's ok I do enjoy the responsibility and I DO still get overtime.

Oh... Better grab my mouth piece on the way out. maybe tomarrow 185??? Hope so!

 

Buffet=DEVIL

191.8  What the hell man!

I don't REMEMBER hurting my ancle... And yet it is swollen and hurting anyway.  How do these things happen?  Gloved sparring went well, I did ok and spared some people I never did before.  Apparently hurt my ancle...  Didn't get hit in the face... but I am unsure of weather that was skill... or my apponents being nice?  Regardless I am greatfull.

Shy Boy was there... he stead fastly avoided me with a guilty look on his face.  Ugh.  I am done!  What a PAIN! I can't deal with that, if he desides he is interested he is going to have to do something... something better then standing near me with an expression that says, "oh god please talk to me!"  Urgh.  Bla! Stomp stomp stomp POUT!

Tonight is the last night of Brown Belt crane... I GOT TO GO.  So I don't know WHAT i am going to do with my ancle.  I'll just have to go with it feeling bad.  I'll Ice it and only do what I need to. 

 

I'd like to join the 180's club! I'm at 182 right now (my heaviest), and my height is 5'2. I started going to the gym 3 times per week for at least 40 mins. of cardio and seriously watching my calories. It's been about 6 weeks, and still no weight loss, and my clothes are as tight as ever! (Although I am sleeping better and feeling a little more fit.) Not quite sure what I am doing wrong, but I have a sneaking suspicion I am eating too much. I am averaging about 1700 calories per day. If I have any less than that I feel like I am starving all the time!

I need some motivation! I'm getting married in October, and I'd like to get down to 160 by then, although my ultimate goal is 140. (I'm short, but anything under that is unrealistic for my body type.) I'm getting frustrated with not seeing any results. How long does it usually take before you actually start losing inches?!

give your body time to adjust...you'll be fine...you mind has alot to do with it as well...keep thinking positive, and you will see results, but DO NOT GIVE UP!!!!!!!!

Lilsmiter - I'm frustrated with not losing anything either.  I've been at 180 since the middle of February.  As for that ankle, let it rest up.  I've had times where I didn't know I messed it up until the next morning, as well.  Also... no more Shy Boy... don't need him.

Welcome Chisteph06 - I don't know what's wrong with what you're doing.  I don't know how your body isn't letting it off.  But your stats are about like mine, I'm 5'3 and 180, and pleateaued.

Eddie - you rock.  I'm glad you're here.

Chisteph06 - Welcome!  As far as I can tell it sounds like you're doing pretty well... only thing I might suggest is to try lowering your calorie intake?  1700 sounds a little bit high to me... I usually hang around 1400 most days and I do light-moderate activity most days and on days when I'm off and if I'm being lazy I'll drop down to around 1200 calories.  Just make sure your calorie deficit isn't more than 1,000.  :)

I didn't really lose last week so now I've been adding more cardio and am trying to do at least 30 minutes every day, some days more. Hopefully this will help... I REALLY want to lose my pudgy belly!!!  If anyone has any suggestions for me, that'd be great!

Lilsmiter - Sorry about your ankle, and Leo's right, you don't need "Shy Boy".  There are more fish in the sea.  :)

 

Sadness. I've been at 180 for five weeks now.

I'm going to the gym tonight, if I feel up to it.  I've got no energy today.  Even though I had a big coffee.

177.2 this morning, sad not back down to 175.8, but hey I'll deal.

I was 32.5%bf (down 2%?!) and 48.5%h20 (up 1.5%?!) Weirdness. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

Welcome Christeph! :D Keep going, your body takes time to adjust to the new schedule :D Also, what are you eating?

Leo~ Eat a banana before you go, it'll help fuel you!!!

lilsmiter~ Yes, ignore shy boy, he sounds so immature :P Be light on your ankle, sometimes these things happen out of the blue! I'll wake up with random bruises sometimes, and not remember how the hell I managed to bruise my forearms?! -shrugs- Bodies are weird like that!

Dear god, screw jump ropes. I tried to jump rope last night, and the jarring of jumping totally screwed with my neck. I pulled a neck muscle and spent the rest of the night crying because of the pain. I can't move my head a lot, and have to keep my neck perfectly centered and still, or there's this throbbing pain up one side.

So much for last night's, and tonight's exercise. Dammit. I'm so angry.
