MY WEIGHTLOSS PAGE

[sandradee]

Hello!

Today is the day that I start working towards the body I want back. I used to 58 kgs and toned, worked out everday and watched what I ate. This will sound weak and silly and make NO mistake I blame myself: I listened to people who told me that I should eat lots more and not worry about weight, according to them I was too vain. I wish I had NOT listened...but I did

At present, I look in the mirror and I feel disgusted in myself: it looks like I have two watermelons shoved up my top and I have 2 chins, not 1!!!! When I sit down, I have something on my lap and guess what? It's my stomach! YUK!!!! My biggest fear will be faced by going to the gym, I have my calorie counting book and notebook so I can write down everything I eat.

Today's weight in: 76.2 kgs

[sandradee]

Okay, I have put on a kilo or two

Not good but the holidays for uni are here!!!!! Hence, I stocked up on a weight loss shakes - won't mention the name of them cause you will think I am a spammer

My goal - go back to uni looking fantastic

[e&me]

I like your goal, I have been doing uni via correspondance but as of next year I plan to go on campus, but I dont want to go looking like this!

Am sure with some motivation and encouragment you will get there

[sandradee]

Thanks for the reply e&me....what are you studying?


Today I bravely stepped on the scales and weighed in at 77.6 - that means that I have 19.6KGS to lose. I cannot believe that I have let myself go this much, I don't even want to go out in public


Off to the gym tonight and then for a long walk....had my shakes for breakfast and lunch. No temptation to overeat today.....if I am tempted I will just have a look at a pic.

I HATE BEING FAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My not so charming b/friend left me for being big....this is personal now! Weightloss here I come....cannot wait to make him eat his stupid words

I know this sounds like a cliche, but you deserve so much more than a boyfriend that leaves you for being a few kilos overweight and maybe you should get new friends too, true friends do not call you vain for looking after yourself.

I have also made the mistake to, for the first time in my life, just hibernate the past winter, due to stress and personal issues. Believe me, I will never do it again, it took me ages to get my mojo back and I will probably still be doing damage control well into 2011.

Good luck with you weightloss, you CAN do it!

Yes i have used to have a b/f who , when i was naked with him, would say "gee you need to use a row machine or something! "
and when i lost some weight he said my boods werent as good and they sagged... COULDNT WIN!!!!
His words cut me that deep cos i couldnt find anything wrong with him!!!
People can be so cruel, esp the people closest to you. I made sure the reasons i was losing weight were to benefit myself.
I called my b/f at work one day as he has taken both house keys accidently to work, and a co-worker answered and said
"yes, i will just get him for you. Your sexy girlfriend is on the phone!!" she had said to Him.
Then i heard him say in the back ground, "Sexy? Pfft, i dont have a sexy girlfriend..."

By just reading your post, I think there was a lot wrong with your ex boyfriend (he is your ex, right?)

Thanks for your reply

[sandradee]

Okay, today, I weigh in at 76.5 and would kill for a Big Mac, large fries and a strawberry thickshake However, I can no longer just shovel food in my mouth.

Total loss to date: 1.8 kilos
Amount of weight I need to lose: 17.8 kilos (such a long way to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Ugh, back to the gym and then off for my walk

[brendan]

Have pity on me then, with 75kg to lose -

Yes I know it is all relative, and a loss of 75kg or 15kg starts with the loss of a single gram!

... stay away from those MacCalories

Brendan....how are you going with your weightloss journey?

....I stayed away from MacDonalds but the gym is right next to the place

thanks for your reply

[Butterfly_Dawn]

but the gym is right next to the place D

Poor product placement much? Time for a new gym methinks.

It's character building, having temptation there and being able to resist

I need to lose considerable kg before I can get into the walking and gym stuff. I am focusing more on the dietary aspects for now. I have lost about 8kg and would like to lose another 12 by the end of the year. Listened to some hypnotherapy cds yesterday - certainly takes away some of those cravings, and helps build up confidence. I feel quite positive about my progress - we'd all like to lose weight quicker, but short of amputation it ain't gonna happen overnight My next weigh-in is Saturday - hoping weight will have dropped below 150kg.

It certainly helps being in the company (virtually) of others going through same trials and tribulations!
