Monday weigh in

Usual update. 66.7kg. I know I was 66.4kg the day before, but I had a really large dinner (again!). Why do I eat so much the day before weigh in? I swear I just secretly hate myself.

I have my 10 year reunion in 2 weeks. I was hoping for 65kg. I don't think I will make it (considering I'm losing half a kilo per week on average). Although if I actually stuck to my point allowage per week and exercised, I might actually drop 1kg this week, but I know I wont. I'm content losing weight at .5kg increments.

Current weight: 66.7kg
Loss to next goal: 1.7kg
Loss to goal: 3.7kg

68.3kg... Considering I weighed about 67.7 yesterday I think things are a little screwy - I ate really late because of daylight savings so that might account for some stuff.

I really need to try harder. *sigh*.

Hehe, I knew the low weight wouldn't last. Today I'm 67.6kg. 1.1 up from yesterday. That's 100g more than I want to be at the present moment. Hrm, exercise! Good food! It'll come off.

:D

Another day another weighin

Hrm, well things went rather interestingly for me at weigh in this morning... 66.5kg. Now that is a loss of 2.6kg. Definitely not healthy, but I ate so well. I suspect the real culprit for my high loss was the vodka on Saturday night and how I couldn't keep anything down Saturday night or Sunday morning. I also didn't eat very much yesterday, so I suspect it will go up.

I am NEVER drinking vodka again. I had 3 drinks (no more) and I felt so ill. Luke had 1 drink and he said it didn't agree with his tummy. So I've determined that vodka is the evil of all evils. I think my poison of choice from now on will be cider. I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I think I've reached the age where spirits are just no longer my friend lol!

Karina, hope the scales showed you love this weekend. I think it's good that it had some movement even though it wasn't in the direction you hoped for - it may mean that your plateu is over! My fingers are crossed for you. I'm so proud that you've kept plugging away at it!

In summary:
current weight: 66.5
next goal: -2.5
Goal: - 3.5

Goodnight out and about.

I really need to be getting ready for work, but I just wanted to quickly update on my daily weigh in: 67.8kg! I had a bit of a shock on Monday - 900g gain (69.1kg). Eeep! I've managed to lose that and a bit more, although my body does weird things during that time of the month like... gain 900g and then be under my normal weight, and then the next week, I'll gain a bit more weight again. Silly TTOTM. We'll see what it says on Monday.

I did something I was really proud of last night. I went out to Sublime for pizza and I stopped at 3 slices. I allocated for 2, but I just wanted that third (2 really isn't enough). The best part is, I felt full!!! So I'm really proud of me! Also, I just drank water (no alcomohols)!

Another mo-joing in September

Well it's less. 68.2.kg... not bad really. Although a loss of 300g isn't exactly what I had in mind. Considering how little exercise I did, I actually think it's a rather good achievement.

Just for fun I went and checked a whole bunch of BMI calculators. I found that most of them said I was in a normal range but there was one that said I was overweight for a 25 year old. If I was 30 years old I would be in a healthy weight range - wtf? If I maintained this weight for the next 5 years, I could be in a health weight range lol!

I should get ready for work. So lazy. I might edit a bit extra in later.

In summary:

Was: 68.5

Now:68.2

To mini goal: - 700g (67.5)

GOAL: -5.2kg

Mojo-ing September

I had a pleasant little surprise this morning when I weighed myself 68.5kg! I've been monitoring it daily (and nightly). I find it really interesting how much food weight someone can gain and how much water can affect your weigh in. How late you eat dinner is another good one. Intriguing isn't it!?

It's nice to finally have made my first goal. I'm sure it's going to fluctuate like crazy in the next week, but if by Monday next week I'm lower than this, I'll know for sure my weight is declining.

YAY I'm in a healthy BMI again!

Somethings that have contributed to this loss. Not drinking 2 nights of the weekend even though I had pressure to do it. By not drinking, I didn't over eat (I think there was more peer pressure to eat the damn pizza). I also danced. All in all it's a fairy winning combination.

Weight is creeping up again. I don't know why I bother. It's like eating healthy results in nothing other than weight gain. At what stage did my body decide it wasn't going to lose weight anymore. I'll keep plugging at it, but I just feel I'm going to be stuck at 69kg forever - or worse, it's just going to keep increasing by 100g and in 10 years time...

I know I should stop stressing about it, but I can't.

This morning - 68.6kg. Offically healthy weight range again! YAY!... although I'm sure it wont stay that low as I didn't eat dinner last night (I just wasn't hungry *sigh*). I'm trying to eat only when I'm hungry at the moment (not because I'm bored etc). It makes things very interesting!

Anyhow, good to see the scales decreasing!!!

My health journey.

Weight 69.2. Fluctuation because I ate too much yesterday. I got home and was just hungry so I ate fruit and nut and picked at the left overs from last night. Not a binge though, which is a total win.

I'm having lots of problems with my asthma at the moment - it's really impacting on exercise. I can't do as much as I used to. So annoying!!! Stupid asthma. I can still walk do weights etc, but nothing high cardio impact like step. I go to the class, suffer, have to stop for not being able to breathe. I really need to make a doctors appointment - it's been going on longer than a month and I thought it would have been gone by now.

In other news I'm wanting to see Ponyo at the cinema. I can't help but love Miyazaki. He makes such fabulous anime. It starts thursday so I reckons the Luke and I will go then (I'm taking the day off work). I think I know which movie I'll review for Japanese class now. YAY!

An update - I'm feeling good

I bought new scales so I can't be sure that the weight I am now is less than what I was... I'm pretty confident it is, because I have been really good with my points. I'm doing 20 points at the moment, although I allow myself a 2 point fluctuation (over or under). I tend to go over more, but I exercise so much it doesn't really matter too much if I go over by 1 or 2.

My new scales are awesome! They measure bone density, water (which I need, I hate drinking water), body fat, & bmi). LOVE THESE SCALES! They also like to remind me that my weight is a little high, which it doesn't hurt getting the reminder...

Anyhow, so the good news. My weight = 69kg! That's 200g over a healthy weight range. Woohoo! So happy... I think my first goal was reduced to 68.5 so that's what I'll aim for.

Weight to mini goal: -500g

Weight to GOAL: - 6kg

p.s. I changed my surname. YAY!

Gotta get those binge attacks under control. I can recognise them now and know that I'm not hungry, but I still have to try and stop myself. 1 day is not a disaster. Gotta remember that! I think part of the problem was being REALLY hungry yesterday. And not having enough food on me.

Anyhow, not weighing in today by choice. Feck - it would be really high!

Breakfast: cereal & milk - 2.5

Coffee - 2.5

fruit salad 2.5 (pineapple, banana, strawberries, mandarin, apple) (5.5/2= 2.5)

soup 2.5

salad 1.5

risotto 5.5

TOTAL: 17 - yep much better outlook. Infact I'll throw in some rice crackers (1 point) =18!!!

Thursday

Thursday - 69.6kg

So I weighed in. I was genuinely excited about weighing in today. I had checked my weight on my dodgy bathroom scales - it showed I was less than last weeks weigh in. So I decided to do it on the real wii fit scales. GAINED!!! 400g. DAMN IT!!!

So starting weight (AGAIN) is 69.6kg... I haven't been behaving myself so I shouldn't be surprised but it's just so annoying when the other scales had told me to expect a loss. Damn those bathroom scales.

So starting my daily weigh ins. I've set myself a few goals which should be easy to stick to. By next week (Wednesday) I am to have lost 1kg. By the end of the month, I plan to lose 2kg. I've got to get myself back into a healthy weight range. I am going to weigh myself everyday. I really think it might help me behave - well I hope it does. Fuck those bathroom scales in their shiny metal behind.

Today's menu:

Breakfast: cereal, milk, coffee= 5

Morning tea: chippies, carrots = 1

Lunch-Fruit salad: strawberries, mandarin, pineapple, banana (2.5). 100g yoghurt 1=3.5

Afternoon tea: rice cakes with vegemite (not sure of points)

Dinner: asparagus, pumpkin + risotto =6.5

TOTAL: 16+ rice cakes.

Obviously whatever I'm doing isn't working for me. I don't know what to do to make things work?

I'm not weighing in today. I know it'll be bad. I'm going to try the more natural life style again. I know, it's crazy. But I honestly think if I can make myself cut out the crap I may be okay.

Breakfast: GF ceral 2 & Milk .5 =2.5

Morning tea: coffee 2.5, chippies 1 =3.5

Lunch: fruit salad pineapple .5, mandarin .5, strawberries .5, apple 1, banana 1 + 100g of full fat youghurt 1 =4.5

Afternoon tea: carrot = 0

Dinner: Rice dish: veggies 1, cheese 1.5, tofu 2, rice 3.5 = 8

TOTAL: 18.5

I'll probably do Vegemite as well on rice cakes to make up the difference :D

EDIT: Going to weigh myself EVERYDAY!!! Fuck this yo-yo-ing. In a weeks time I WILL BE 68.5 kg (1.5 kilo loss).

Had pumpadums with dinner about 1.5 pointes (last night - so I went over by half). I don't know what it is, but for some reason everytime I do a pump class my weight creeps up again. It's so annoying!!!

In other news, today's menu:

Breakfast: yoghurt, coffee, cereal 5.5

Morning tea: chippies + mandarin 1.5

Lunch: soup, fruche 4.5

Afternoon tea: apple 1.5

Dinner: pasta, sauce veggies, the laughing cow cheese = 6.5

TOTAL: 19.5

Exercise=Kendo!

Monday

Well I didn't exactly behave myself on the weekend, but I didn't exactly misbehave either. The scales are showing me some love this morning, so who knows, by Wednesday things might be looking a-ok.

I was reading the latest ww newsletter and read this article: 8 ways not to cheat on a diet. There is some really good advice in there. I usually try to incorporate most of the suggestions, however one really stands out to me - 'Surround yourself with witnesses'. I find that if I am left alone, this is when I am most likely to start binging (I think way too much about food).

Anyhow, menu for the Monday-itis.
Breakfast: cereal, yoghurt, coffee 5.5
Morning tea: apple 1.5
Lunch: homemade sushi + Inari 4
Afternoon tea: Mandarin .5, lollies 1
Dinner: Rice 2, sauce 2, potato 1.5, veg .5 =6
Dessert: yoghurt 1

TOTAL: 19

Meh. It gets a little repetitive doesn't it.

Today's menu:
Breakfast: cereal, yoghurt, fruit, coffee 6
Morning tea: chippies 1
Lunch: yoghurt & soup 4.5
Afternoon tea: 2 ciders (5)
Dinner: Risotto (at least that's the plan - 5)

TOTAL: 21.5

Over by 1.5 (at least I've planned for it), I could always eat something healthier for dinner like salad but you know, that's boring!

Thursday

Soooo I went over my points yesterday by 13. That's right, another binge attack *sigh*. How annoying!!! I did 7 points of exercise yesterday, so I only need to make up for 6 today (of which 5 points will be exercise - i.e walking to and from work :D. I think my binging is getting less frequent, just got to stop it all together now.

Anyhow today's menu:
Breakfast: cearl and milk 2.5
Morning tea: chippies + carrot + coffee (2.5)
Lunch: soup & yoghurt 4.5
Afternoon tea: popcorn 1.5
Dinner: stuffed capiscum (capsicum, rice, cheese, veg = 5)

TOTAL: 16 - hrm if I end up sticking to this I might catch the bus home... :D

Wednesday weigh in - week 4?

Slow and steady wins the race right!? Weigh in 69.2kg. Loss of 300g in 2 weeks... it's a bit slow, but I should be grateful that it's a loss right. So far I've managed to lose 500g. Almost a kilo I guess. Healthy weight range here I come (I think I have about 400g to go or something).

Anyhow, last night I went to Kendo. Was fabulous. I have the biggest blister under my big toe. Walking to work and step tonight should prove rather interesting - especially since I can't actually flatten my big toe at the moment. I was so hungry after I finished though. HUNGRY!!! I had a carrot 0 points and some fruit salad .5 points... at least I went for something healthy YAY!

Today's menu:

Breakfast: cereal, coffee (5)

Morning tea: chippies, carrots, mandarin (1.5)

Lunch: soup, yoghurt (4.5)

Afternoon tea: apple (1.5)

Dinner: Potato, sour cream, cheese, salsa, coleslaw, beetroot, pineapple (5)

TOTAL: 17.5 points. I'm sure I'm forgetting something. Not sure what though! Erm, exercise = walking + step! YAY! (It might be called hobbling and step though lol)

Summary:

Current weight: 69.2kg

Goal weight: 60kg

Lost: -0.5kg

Next goal: - 1.7kg

GOAL: - 9.2 kg

Tuesday

Another day, another menu. I was really good yesterday. Behaved myself like a lady. Not sure what to do about my inability to control myself when it comes to food though. Like I said good 4 days bad the next 3. I was doing okay until I decided to go drink. Maybe I need to restrain from the alcohol for awhile. Yesterday ended up being 19 points with 12ks of walking and 1hr pump session (about 7 points of exercise).

Breakfast: Yoghurt, cereal, fruit =3

Morning tea: apple 1.5, coffee 1.5 =3

Lunch: Noodles 3.5 =3.5

Afternoon tea: Mandarin .5, rice cracker, lollies = 2

Dinner: pasta, cheese (15g), veggies, sauce 7.5

TOTAL: 19

Exercise: Kendo

Oh yeah I weigh in again tomorrow. Cheated today. Looks like I'm sitting at 69.5 again. GRRR! I know I got lower last week when I looked. BAH!!!
