I weigh in today and after a horrible past two weeks of WW, I step on the scale to find out I lost 3.8 pounds this week! Which put me at the 25 pound mark…I have lost a total of 25.2 pounds so far!!! AHHHH happiest girl alive right now! and SO proud of myself. I think I am about 10-15 pounds max away from my goal!!!! =)
Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heart beat, or will stay awake to watch you sleep, wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you’re just in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends. Who thinks that you’re just as pretty without make-up on, one who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have you…The one who turns to his friends with a smile and says, “She’s the one!
These past three days were exactly that… unexpected. I heard from a friend of many years that I have lost touch with over the years. My family has always been close family friends with his. The first thing he says to me is of how beautiful he always thought I was but was way to scared or unsure as to how or when to tell me, but got the guts to do so that night. Completely blindsided and flattered, I thanked him. Before you know it, we’re talking, catching up, and we start to flirt. Now, I would be lying if I said I didn’t think he was absolutely handsome and I’ve always thought that. I honestly thought he was completely out of my league and he would never think I am pretty or attractive whatsoever. That night, I end up going to his house to watch a movie with him and just hang out with an old friend (although we all know that that probably wasn’t the only thing that was going to happen). To make a long story short, we end up hooking up. I couldn’t believe it happened, but it did. I was unsure as to what it was or that it actually did. I left happy and confused at the same time.
The next day, we continue talking. After class, we decide to get drinks at a bar. I have to say, I honestly had the most genuine fun time in a very long time. Although us hooking up and going out together is a completely foreign, new, and confusing concept to me, it felt right, easy, and comfortable. I was relaxed, I could be myself…I didn’t have to try. He was treating so good too, doing things no guy has ever done for me, like opening my car door!!! Like what guy does that now!? Everything was going good!! I couldn’t believe it but I did because I couldn’t stop smiling. We go back to his place. That night, he just continues to compliment me, saying the most amazing things any girl would want to hear. I couldn’t help but blush. I find him almost irresistible. We hook up again.
Last night, we hang out at his place. Again, we hook up but this time I sleep over. Today, he went back to his apartment in the city. Hopefully, like he said, he’ll come out a weekend soon and we can hang out. I have NO idea where this is going or what it means but I’m just gonna hang out and enjoy the ride. I shouldn’t doubt mine or his feelings - as I always seem to do. I don’t feel that I deserve to be thought up in such a way that he says he thinks of me or treats me as well as he did these past three days.
I’m not unsure about these past three days only that it was completely unexpected.
But, I know that it makes it that much more exciting!
so yea, didn’t go to my meeting. shame on me. i weighed myself at home on my WW scale and it says I went up just under a pound. Okay, not that bad. We all have an off week. I am already doing SO much better this week! Tracking Everything and eating a lot more healthier with more control! My mind needs to be there because if not, my stomach will soon be! ;-)
Ok, so I have a confession. This past week was probably one of my worst weeks on Weight Watchers. I don’t know what it was but my brain and stomach were working together against me! They were telling me, “eat that chocolate,” “c’mon, another piece won’t hurt,” “it’s not that many points… don’t even bother tracking!” Seriously, I felt that I had no control, and THAT is the worst feeling. I decided not to go to Weight Watchers to weigh in today. One, I don’t want to face that scale, but I am going to weigh in at home. At least I know if I gained or lost. I know I know what you’re all gonna say, YOU’RE WRONG FOR NOT GOING TO THE MEETING! And, you are all right. But, I also can’t go because I have a personal training appointment then and because I know myself. I am going to start fresh starting today. It’s a new week. We all have off weeks. But I am going to be serious and think before I put anything in my mouth. In an hour, I will know my consequences. PURE FEAR.
all i want to do this week is EAATTTT!! why?!?!?! ugh gotta stop munching!!
High Intensity Interval Training.
It’s a new month and time for a new workout. I run at least 6 miles a day 6-7 days a week. Since i have just about 10-15 pounds left to go for my weight-loss goal, it is getting harder to lose those pounds, especially at a pace I was losing the past 22 pounds. I’ve done my research and HIIT seems to be the key! High intensity for short amounts of time, and then a bit longer recovery time leads to over 30% more weight-loss an increase in endurance, cardiovascular activity, muscle and overall health! Hopefully, this is exactly what I need!
I weight in and……..
I LOST .4! it’s not a lot but it’s still losing! and I still drank and ate what I wanted this weekend! SUCH a great feeling! Now, I am at a total weight-loss of 22.6 POUNDS! :) can’t wait for this week!
So this past Sunday was my 23rd Birthday! And, it was a great one! Saturday night I went into the city. I ate good all day and for dinner, I had a glass of prosecco, salmon, and some cake! (hehe) I knew going into my birthday weekend that I was going to be tempted to eat not as I am used to on a weekly basis with weight watchers and was definitely going to drink. But that’s okay. That’s life. I worked out every day prior, like I always do, and I still did my best attempt to track and stay on track. I DID NOT go completely off the ban wagon because keep in mind, you still need control or else…. a lot of things will go off balance! But I accepted that when I go to weigh in today, that it’s okay if the scale doesn’t go down or stays the same up even maybe goes up. It was my birthday and I enjoyed it! That is most important! Remember, it wasn’t one birthday that got us all to where we were when we started weight watchers. It wasn’t that one piece of cake or one cookie or lick of frosting. It was months and years of poor eating habits and choices. But now, it’s weigh in day and its a fresh start to get back on my grind! Here’s to tracking, a healthy lifestyle, good and smart choices all while still enjoying life …just one year older now! =)
Up until now, I have currently lost a total of 22.2 pounds! I am still in shock to say that I have lost that much in almost 5 months! It has been hard work and dedication, but that is what I am..dedicated. Dedicated to being fit, healthy, skinny, a newer and better version of me. I still have more to go, but I’m more than halfway there! And, I can’t wait to see the results!
I am having a difficult time deciding, however, my goal weight. I have an idea but I am not sure as to how I will first, look/feel at that weight, and two, if I’ll be able to maintain it. For now, I am setting small goals. I do know is that whatever my goal weight is, I would LOVE to have reached it before the summer! It’s going to be hard, but I’m committed and determined!
