Healthy Weight Loss

sylvie · 08-12-2012, 10:10 AM

In Oregon, and most definitely have entered Daddy Bootcamp, heh.
Disciplined meals and portions, running each morning, and weights and core every other day... Lots of time for recovery work as well...

But also enjoying many walks, so much to explore, and so much wonderful time with Him and the pup.. i'm home, and that's the best feeling in the world.. <3
i've been spending my time with Him helping at the restaurant, it's full force busy and loving the ability to live each day with Him.. Love the environment, the people, i fit..Ya know?

So, it really helps so much in the spectrum of being good to myself and detoxing (as Anya put it) from the life back in NB, and building a much stronger and healthier version of me.. i'm developing a healthy relationship with food again, which is the most important part..

At the restaurant, the prep cook yesterday was making a very yummy treat which smelled delicious, and not once did i walk by there craving them or wanting them, which is a sign i'm getting back into a very healthy mindframe again..

Last weigh in was 114 lbs lost.
i won't weigh in again for awhile, and that's okay.. i'm not even obsessing it for a change which is a big thing for me, as you all know i obsess numbers, greatly.

Not today though..Something else to celebrate.
Just got home from my run, about to shower, eat breakfast and run down to help out at the restaurant for the day. *smiles*

Have a happy, happy day healthies!

I have been on track again all week! I had negative 10 points again last night, ugh, oh well. Going to a street fair today and looking forward to making healthy choices. Weighing in tomorrow. On my period so not going to freak if I don't have a loss, I am carrying a lot of bloat!

Hugs to all the healthies!

Smiles!!

My wife helped me have a very powerful mental/emotional breakthrough regarding my faith. Faith in humanity, spiritual faith, and faith in myself. I believe this may help me as I continue to make healthy choices.

I'm on an 8 week challenge with my trainer. So far it's been going amazing. Major weight loss over the last 2 weeks. Daily gym trips for cardio and weight training every other day. Healthy Clean meals 6 times a day and NO EXCUSES

WHOOOOTTTTT

Such a hard weekend for me.

I could sit and eat myself into a coma if I let myself.

I could numb out all my feelings but that would only make me feel worse when the numbness wore off.

I lost half a pound instead.

Hi all!

Wondering how everyone is doing these days? Busy living RL I guess!

I lost 2 more pounds. 9 this month total.

My parents offered me ice cream and cake and I easily turned it down. I so clearly know that one bite is deadly and sets up the whole craving cycle.

Mentally, it is the one thing I can feel good about right now-control over my eating choices.

I hope everyone else is hanging in there! Let us know how you are doing!

I weighed myself the other day and I came in at 168lbs..After working all night. I am liking the Body by Vi shakes and my fave one is the strawberry cheesecake flavor. I made it with half of a container of strawberry Greek yogurt and five frozen strawberries and 8oz of plain SoyMilk. It filled me up and gave me so much energy, that I was still awake at 4am instead of taking a nap at 2am to help me through the night. I had the shake around 8p.

Here is the calorie breakdown:

Strawberries - 5: 30 Calories
Milk - 8oz: 110 Calories
Protein Shake Mix - 2 scoops: 90 Calories
Strawberry Greek Yogurt - 3oz: 70 Calories

Total Calories: 300

I like the shakes since I started my new shift at work this past week and I am not a fan of eating really late at night.

Weighed in and lost 1.9. Yay! It feels sooooo good to see the scale going down instead of going up again :-) I really need to get back into my exersice routine. I know when that happens, I will be losing 3-4 consistently. But, we keep hitting into the 100s and I can't run in that heat. I need to just drag my ass into the gym I pay every month for... Excuses, excuses. I will get there when I am ready. I am just glad I rocking it with my food choices and tracking.

:-)
