Happy Dance
It is official :hamactor: I am now the lightest I have been in 15 years!!! :shocking: Cutting out dinner carbs did the trick and got me off the plateau and plummeting another 4 pounds. :cheerleader: :clap:
I am way fucking happy. :happyjump: Like way. :giggle: I am officially shopping for a new dress for the womonspace dance :blueheels:. I think I am going to go for a new look... like steam punk. And why not... right now I feel as sexy as all get out. :goodscore: |
Yesterday I had a doctors appointment with my doc about my back and what to do about it,my options were surgery or to give pain managaement a try first,im doing pain managaement then hopeing I can get back to a more normal ablity to be mobile with out stifness and pain.I have no clue as to what or when it will start but its best be asap so I can get a move on it.The surgery option is like a barbaric whack job that will leave me unable to bend over cause of the rods and screws and such,my comment was hell no in capitial letters cause with the advance ment of surgery options avalable with new ways of doing things I will look for a better way first.Also they say I have a brusitis pocket in my left shoulder and left hip plus degenertive disk in my back and neck.Now I knew all this a long time ago plus its in my med records and they know it.Frankly im really put out over the lack of the docs getting on the ball with what can be done or not done about it except throw drugs at it,I told them I wasnt going to let them turn me into a paid drug addict just for them to take a short cut at my expense any longer.I really do hope pain management works cause surgery is an option I really dont want to take.
On the other hand they are pleased with my weight loss even tho I have regained a fue as well as my blood sugar being better than it had in a while.Trade off's the god ,bad and the ugly of it all. |

I am not too keen on stevia. I only highlighted the truvia (stevia) b/c I know that people like the ease of packets. If I had to have an artificial sweetner (which I don't use anymore), I would actually choose Splenda when it comes to taste. |
Worked out with my trainer this afternoon. I think we finally had a connection....Had a great workout.
Now to get back on track! I have been on a feeding frenzy for 2 weeks, gained about 4 lbs. This too shall pass.... Looks like y'all have been doing great!!! Keep up the good work!! |

good morning Healthies.. Back in Saint John (ho hum).. But, counting down to August, 138 days! But, i am staying as positive as i can with the distance and throwing myself back into my workouts.. i stayed on track eatingwise in Oregon, and exercised when i could -- happy girl here for that. Feels good to come back with no guilt! So - eating breakfast now: 1 shredded wheat 1/2 c skim milk a small banana chopped into it.. Then, i will walk to the gym (30 mins) and once there, i will: do the weight machines treadmill (1 min run, 1 min walk) = 30 mins elliptical, 20-30 mins Then i have to go grocery shopping, before i come home.. i also need to make an appointment today to see my Dietician next week , so i can continue the Intuitive Eating program and get weighed in! Last weigh in was 91 lbs lost since April. JoSchmooze - i tried bringing food through at the airport and they let me! As long as it was snacks and fruit they were fine with it, just no liquids.. Thanks so much for mentionning it, i truly thought food was included, LOL.. Made my travelling day much more pleasant as far as staying on track. ((huggs to all)) |
20 pounds, or less
You know I started a thread that I now think was unnecessary, having found this one. It's for people looking for lose no more than 20 pounds. I was hoping to find support for that goal, from other people looking to lose the same amount, but maybe I can find that—and give that!—here.
So, is anyone interested in being my 20-pound weight loss buddy? Thanks, IslandScout |

Sylvie, glad to know that I was not misleading you. I have always taken nuts, trail mix or other snacks in my backpack. I just cannot spend the outrageous prices in the airport! Today is the day after my birthday and I am just now getting to work!! Thank goodness my client knows I am remote and sometimes I keep crazy hours! A couple of my friends "kidnapped" me, took me over to one of their homes and gave me a "diet friendly" barbeque! Neither of them could believe that I cut my steak in half and only ate about a 6 - 7 oz portion! But I am grateful for those friends who are supporting my efforts to get healthy and lose this extra weight! Keep on trucking, y'all! :cigar2: |
Welcome IslandScout!
Whether 10, 20 or 100 lbs, or heck even just about healthy eating.. There's tons of support here, we're happy you joined us! i've had a ton of support from this thread since it started and there is so much motivation and tips , i love it! (((huggz))) |
Morning all, ♥ Had a great day at the Gym yesterday.. Last night, i went in my closet and grabbed the new scrub shirts i had that have never been able to fit & guess what, THEY FIT !!! i may or may not have danced around in them last night, & even wore it to work this morning, with a shirt underneath.. i'm excited.. seriously.. Can't wait for weigh in, even if i didn't lose lbs, i'm guessing that i'm losing inches.. i really need to be better about measuring myself, it would be motivating for sure..Mr Mtn said He's been noticing changes in my body, especially when i was there and the way my clothes fit. So YAY! Today i am working a split shift, morning & evening so.. home from my morning shift now, and getting changed and going to jog.. Going to jog as much as i can with some walking breaks, i'm excited to try this.. When i go to the Gym, i do one min walking and one min running, and alter between the two for 30 mins.. It's very different when outside compared to a treadmill, and i've run a lil outside but usually very shy to so when i see people i'll stop.. But today, i feel this weird confidence now that i've been training to run, and so i'm doing it, and love pushing myself.. Feels great and now that i have the gear especially (sneakers, sports bras, and comfy running clothes) i'm soooo on this... So, off i go!! But not just with running & exercise, this confidence i am building in so many areas of my life, feels incredible. i'll elaborate more soon as i can. Have a fabulously terrific kinda healthy & energetic sorta day everyone! hehehe.. xo |

Yesterday I ate: Breakfast: Lara bar Lunch: brown rice sushi with avocado and fake crabmeat, power drink like muscle milk but not a milk product Dinner: Chipotle, the "bowl," no meat, avocado, beans, rice, tomato, peppers Dessert: non-fat yogurt, about 8 ounces, with a few berries on top and some chocolate sprinkles I felt bloated and had a stomach ache when I went to bed. I just got up and I'm having a cup of coffee and a banana. Pretty bad, right? No wonder I can't get the weight under control. :( IslandScout |

Hey Medusa,
I was reading the new Marie Claire magazine at work tonight and there was an article written by a plus size women. She works for them and was recommending work out clothes. She loved the sports bras from Lane Bryant. The name of the line is: Marika Miracles at Cacique. I am thinking of going to the store this week to see what I can find. I may even hit their website tonight :) Hope this helps! Zimmeh Quote:
