Weigh In #12

Okay so I lost 1.2 this week for a total of 33 pounds. I made my 10% goal this week! Yay! So excited! Yeah I wish I had lost more than 1.2...but honestly it's not that bad considering I went out to dinner 3 times last week. 1. night my bf graduated from college 2. our 3 year anniversary/night we got engaged 3. girl's night out. I should have thought harder about girl's night out and planned for another night...but egh. It was a lot of fun and it was worth it. I am hoping this week I'll lose a good amount.

On another note so we got my (new) engagement ring yesterday. And it's a size 10. Yes that's large...but it's still 1/2 a size smaller than the last ring I got (dec. 09). And the ring comes with a warranty or protection plan that allows for free sizing..forever. So once my fingers get smaller I'll be able to get it sized down at no cost! I'll be able to pick my ring up on April 11th. Soooo excited! It's being sized so yeah...I have to wait 2 weeks.

Anyway this week I walked 3 times this past week. I didn't really dance at night...which is another reason why I didn't really lose much Sunday. I am going to get back to that...b/c I do love it. I suppose tonight is the night! lol Well that's my update...just wanted to check in and keep myself more accountable!

Brace Yourselves!

Okay so this week has been good....Wednesday I had a good day. It was my boyfriend and I's third anniversary. We went to dinner at a Japanese restaurant and then saw Cirque du Soilei. It was def. a good time. And this is where you should brace yourselves...when we got home he proposed!!!! OMG! Yeah so apparently I'm getting married. What???! I know!!!! yeah this has been one of those WHOA...OMG...LOL....WTF weeks! lol

Anyway I guess it's a good thing I'm already on WW b/c Lord knows I'm not trying to be the world's fattest bride. OMG...lol. (Sorry I randomly OMG when I think about getting married). I am about to leave work soon...I'm going walking at the mall then I'm going to go home and nap. I worked an overnight shift...so I'm very tired and I have a headache. But that's not gonna stop me from walking!

Tomorrow is girl's night out. We are going to have Japanese (yup same restaurant...I picked it lol)...and then Dave and Busters for drinks and games. I don't believe I'll be drinking as WI is the next day. I don't want to have a bad weigh in. I already am pushing it by eating out twice this week...no make that 3 times. One night we had take out Applebees. I did order off the WW menu...but still. And my leftovers are in the fridge from Wed. night but I'm afraid to eat them. I think I might not. I mean why have another higher in point meal...with more sodium. Egh...we'll see. Anyway so that's my check in....I'm getting married....OMG!!!!!!! lol

Weigh in #11

Okay so I lost 2 pounds this week! I am very happy about that...though I guess it would be likely hard to believe. Yesterday after the meeting I was talking to my friend and I literally started crying b/c I'm just so unhappy with my weight. It's a combination of PMS...and just me going nuts I guess. I mean I am now at 305.6...and it just kills me that I am still over 300 pounds. It sounds crazy..I realize...but I'm just so bummed. I'll get over it...I need to cont. to work on my mental state. I am totally cracking up. I just truly feel like being under 300 will be so awesome and I can't wait for it!

Also yesterday my sister joined WW. I'm excited to have another WW buddy...so that's def. good. I am officially at 31.8 pounds lost. So that means I get my paid subscription to Pandora! My next 10 pounds my reward are a pair of (pink and white) Nike flip flops. I loooove flip flops...so I can't wait! So very excited! Bring it on!

Miss {Not As Big} New Booty [NSV]

Okay so I went to a musical last night and it's a local theater that has pretty small seats. I went to this same theater for a musical back in September of last year. Well this time the seats didn't DIG into my hips...nor do I feel any pain OR have bruises. Yes, I had bruises from last time I went on my hips (sad, yes I know!)....but this time it was great! I was able to sorta cross my legs a bit (not for long....b/c well let's face it I'm still fat...) but yeah it was awesome! I felt so awesome when I sat down and my fat didn't bulge out the side. Amazing what almost 30 pounds will do. Woohoo!

I admit this hasn't been the best week ever. But after last night I see why I am doing this...and I am going to renew myself and be on track. I am still over 300 pounds. So yeah I have a ways to go...but I can do this. I can't wait to go back to that theater in a few more months!

Score ONE for the (smaller) big girl!

Weigh-In & Bad Day

Okay so this past week I lost 3.4 at weigh in for a total of 29.8. Yay! I am so excited. I'm .2 away from 30 and my new reward of "paid" Pandora.

Side note: UGH yesterday was terrible. I had Japanese twice. UGH! I am pretty sure this may have ruined my WI for Sunday. But I am going to just hope for the best. SHAME ON ME! I shouldn't have done that...but for some reason I lost my mind. Ohhhh...and I had some wine. At least 2 glasses. UGH! Bad, bad, me.

I'm back on track today...but DAMN it. I'm not gonna beat myself up though. I am just going to move on and be on track for the rest of the week!

Mid Week Check In...

Okay so not too much going on with me. Kinda boring week. I

Weigh in #9

Okay so in a surprise turn of events I lost 3 pounds this week! Shock...gasp! lol I know, right! I'm so excited to say that. I have now lost a total of 26.4 pounds. Yay!

Last week was pretty decent. I had a slight Japanese incident in which I won't get too much into. Needless to say I know that Japanese is now a trigger food and I'm not allowing myself to go there often. However my sister "took" me out to lunch after we walked on one day..and I dumbly agreed to go..is dumbly even a word? Anyway...well I agreed to go. Bad idea. So I tried to be a good girl and box up half my food before I even started...but needless to say once I got home I ate the rest...I mean as SOON as I got home. Totally defeats the purpose. I mean on Vday I was fine bringing home leftover Japanese...but the other day last week..not so much. What was the difference? Well on Vday my bf was home and we both put our leftovers in the fridge and spent time together. This past week I was left to my own "fat girl" devices...and that left me alone gorging on Japanese food. UGH. I have eating issues. (duh)

Well anyway...I'm hoping for a great week this week. I've already walked twice this week and I do believe I'm going again Friday. We are up to 3 times around (yay us!) and so we are killing it! I really want to look into getting some ankle weights...maybe 2 pounds...nothing major. But hey it's a start!

Random side note: so I have shared I walk at the mall for exercise. so at this point we go into "smaller" stores all the time and just look at the clothes...sizes...blah blah. Just to look. Well so I've been in just about every "small girl" store there is around at this mall...from American Eagle (I actually purchased an XL sweater there for $8...I can't EVEN wear it..but yeah) to Ann Taylor. How about my sister/walking partner wanted to go into Forever 21 and I froze at the door. WTH. Okay...I think I have some sort of preconceived notion about that store...but I couldn't go in...WOW. I have got issues. I mean I absolutely froze at the door and opted to go to the bathroom instead while she went inside. Wow. I guess I hear so much about Forever 21 I just didn't want to bother and have them stare at the 300 pound fat chick. SIGH. And yes I have heard they sell some plus size...apparently they have a tiny RACK somewhere with "plus size"...whatever. Yeah so I don't foresee myself going in there for a good 100 pounds. EGH. I'm good. BOO!

Mid Week Update

So far so good this week. I've been making sure I eat the correct amount of points...also I have been dancing at night. I fear I might only get 2 days of walking in this week...but we'll see. I've been thinking a bit about my March goals and here are a few of them:

1. Drink More Water (at least 5 bottles of water a day 16.9 FL Oz.)
2. Dance on nights I don't walk
3. Lose at least 2 pounds each week.

Those goals aren't much different from any other motnth so far...but honestly I'm very anxious to get out of the 300s. I'm so bummed about weighing 300+ pounds...so I'm really really anxious. I doubt I'll get out of the 300s this month b/c that would mean I would have to lose at least 3.8 pounds a week. EEK! yeah not likely...but I am inching closer to it and I'm soooo ready to be there!

Weigh In #8 (2 Months!)

Okay so it's been 2 months on WW and here is my weigh in for the week...I lost .8. Booo! Well ok it could be worse...I could have gained...or I could have stayed the same. At least I lost something, right? Well this past week has been kinda crappy. I have had the WORST allergies I've ever had in my life. I mean the WORST. I am waking up every day with eyes swollen shut...bleeding gums/dry teeth...and scratchy throat. It's AWFUL! Yeah lovely image I just gave you, huh? Well it's worse in person! Anyway so I did walk 3 times this past week...but I didn't do much walking. Between allergies and a knee that hurts...nope not doable.

I am happy to report that my knee isn't hurting today and my allergies though still SUCK and I woke up this morning looking like I had been crying all night are a bit better. I have been trying all types of medications and I tried an offbrand Clartin (walmart brand) and it seems to be helping a bit. Yup I said off brand...Clartin is like 15 bucks and walmart brand is 5. I'm poor. lol

Anyway so yeah. Also exciting news...yesterday while walking I went to Old Navy and got a pair of XXL PJ bottoms and I tried them home once I got home and they FIT! They don't quite fit how I would like PJ bottoms to fit...they fit more like regular pants. But they fit! I'm going to give it maybe 10 more pounds before I actually wear them. But YAY for that. The XXL dress I purchased a month or so go is getting a bit loose...but it's still not wearable outside the house. But I'm making progress! Anywho that's my update.

Oh yeah doggie update...he went to the vet. Vet said he is actually very healthy aside for the tummy issues. He has been on medication since Friday and has been MUCH better. He goes back for a check up tomorrow. YAY! And my sweet BF paid for half the doc bill. Love that man!

Recap:

.8 loss...why? B/c I skipped a few meals due to being sick with allergies this week. BAD IDEA. Oh and no dancing a few nights. BAD IDEA #2.
