Weight Loss Journey-Take 100 (2025)

20/10/2018

So I fell off the wagon...and let me tell you I feel like crap- my anxiety is back. yummy food is not worth this at all!
I have only gained 3lbs back but man the effects of the bad food on my body feels worst! The good in still is my heart hasn’t given up! Cleaning out junk again today and ordering groceries. Prepare to fail when you fail to prepare is so true with being healthy!

So my fear of going n vacation is going back to old habits...well we are heading back and I have eaten like crap more a lot of this vacation- started off great but as the week went on ...well....and I feel like crap- who wants to feel like crap. NOT ME! Tomorrow is a new day - a new start- another chance to get back on the horse! I will NOT let myself loose this myself this time and gain it all back. I can’t- I won’t! Tomorrow back to 110oz of water and better food choices so I will start feeling better and not feel like 💩💩💩

So I did it! I am official below 220...came in this morning at 219.4! Since starting this journey on 8/20 at 232 lbs. I have lost a total of 12.6lbs. That is 6 weeks with an average of 2lbs per week! And I gained two weeks in a row.
So with that said i prayed for a successful weigh loss journey - I can’t lose 100lbs in a month but I can in a year!
So I am very happy with the process- why because I am not depriving myself of anything. I had a fried California roll last night- but instead of eating that PLUS a full meal I just enjoyed the roll, salad and veggies from the habachi grill.
BAM and it worked and I did not miss out of the fun night or yummy food and I still loss!!!! Say What?!?!?!!!!
I got this !

I am so praying to be out of the 220s tomorrow when I weigh in- but NSV - I feel so much better- I think more clearly-I am not so snappy-I am slowly starting to see my clothes getting loose on me!
I want to be so patience with this journey and the other day I looked a picture of myself in the mirror without a shirt and my heart hurt.
I wondered how they happen to me- why did I left food control my life?
I still struggle but try with each waking minute of the day to make a better choice.
Some things really helping me...
Keep food on hand- when I don’t I go to bad food!
I keep my water bottle full and drink all day! I am not afraid to ask for a potty anywhere lol- and if you drink 100oz a day you need potties every where
I put my workout clothes on the min I walk in the house
Girl I am not fooling anyone I mess up almost daily but right now I am not giving up!

So I gained another pound this week when I weighed in on Wednesday and then weighed this morning I was down two pounds lol! So I am going to recorded my official weight on Friday and see where I am this week. I know weight moves up and down by the second but if you are like me just starting this journey you want to see a loss.
But good news I have been on this journey for 5 weeks and just with the weigh in on Wednesday I was still down 6lbs.
Not much but if I lost every week for a year that would 52 lbs. and that is a lot!
Looking for all the silver linings in this journey! Just saying...so until tomorrow am

18/09/2018

So I am giving this a try for 21 days...and then I am going to switch out my workouts. It feels good to start moving again! And all on Pinterest and free!
10k steps
Arms every other day
10-15 interval training- I add some dance moves in between lol

14/09/2018

Last night instead of ordering Burger King with the family I got home and made myself dinner!!! Whoo hoo

12/09/2018

Weigh in Wednesday- so I gained a pound this last week- it was truly expected. I ate like crap this weekend and guess what I felt like crap!
I wanted to give up- I had that feeling again on Monday and I was so mad at myself. My stomach was bloated and I hurt!
But I got back on it Tuesday - I woke up to a new day and told myself to get right back on it.
And today I felt better. Food isn’t worth feeling like crap- it really isn’t . Does it taste good- heck yea! But the effects are literally killing me.
So I have to remind myself this is a one step at a time journey!
So today is a good day and I am really ready to kick this week in the butt!

10/09/2018

So I haven’t eaten so good the last 48hrs and my body is feeling it- very bloated and feeling yucky!
Wake up call! This is a lifestyle change!

It amazes me how with thought I could let one meal change my hopes, goals, and motivation.
As I sit here on a Sunday - I just made a pizza and my mind is telling me the whole pizza but my heart is telling me to stick to it! You got this!
It amazes me how the mind can play wicked games...
I got this- I had two slices and hoping someone is in the kitchen now finishing off the rest !

08/09/2018

Face to Face Friday...only couple weeks in between

05/09/2018

Weigh In Wednesday! Another loss! Slow and steady. I ate some of my favorites this past week and still had a loss. Worked hard to keep it in my calories and started Saturday with getting in 10k steps a day. So hoping to see how I do next week with both calorie watching (1860 calories- this is 1lb a week loss with My Fitness Pal) and walking does for me.
Starting weight 232
Today 223.8
Total loss from last week to this week 1.2
Total overall 9.2

Anxiety is bad today- I am pmsing and my husband doesn’t feel great and that worries me. But instead of turning to food I am trying to focus on other things to help reduce the anxiety! Not food- I am finding that food is most likely a big cause of a lot of my anxiety.
Anxiety sucks but learning to work thru it is priceless.

04/09/2018

So glad all stores close at 10 in my area- because right not I want to bake some cookies or eat ice cream! Glad this craving came after 10pm lol

01/09/2018

So this week- ok. Had two cheat meals- happy to report both made me feel like crap.
But best part is getting right back to it.
Starting today going to start adding exercise. In the past it would let’s jump right into the fire with saying I am going to the gym 5 days a week.
Not this time.
Baby steps - remember
So my goal is to get 10k steps in each day!
This will also allow me to clear my mind- enjoy outside (even when it 10000 degrees outside)
Still keeping my calorie count higher. Want to see how adding walking and keeping around 1800 calories works together.
The 1800 calories is keeping me full and allowing some treats if I want
So Let’s do this!
Xoxo

29/08/2018

Weigh in Wednesday- Week 2
so I was worried about this- because I was trying to adjust my calories. But I am proud of myself for still making “better” not perfect but better choices.
Original weight 232
Last weigh in 228.2
Today’s weight 225.8
Weekly loss 2.8
Total loss 6.2

29/08/2018

Thoughts for Tuesday...
Don’t make goals I can’t keep (I broke my yesterday)
I read a great article today to start small and to keep making small changes
- I have been such an all or nothing person and I fail within a week usually- maybe I can last a week and half.
So I increased my calories to go from most likely 3000 calories a day to 1300 is setting myself up for failure right off the bat.
So I lowered them to 1800 a week. Then we will go from there. I think I haven’t seen the scale move because I shocked the hell of my body cutting more then half my calories overnight . And my body is thinking crap what is she doing I need to hold onto everything - she is trying to starve me 😂😂😂
So I set my FP to 1 lb loss per week and that increased my calories. I am going to add some walking and see what this does.
Just have to remind my self this is a journey- and good things come to those with time and patience !
Xoxo

27/08/2018

So for the most part stuck to my goals last week. This week’s goals...
1. Only way allotted calories by My Fitness Pal- last week I just tracked and went over those calories- allowing myself one free meal (no more then 1000 calories over MFP)
2. Walk 30mins each day this week (weather permitting)
3. Keep working on getting 100oz of water each day

26/08/2018

So last night night was cheat night and I downed some beef nachos and a half of margarita- I felt like crap after. Didn’t feel like it was worth it at all. But my mindset the whole time was enjoy it and get right back on it tomorrow- this is a feeling I haven’t had in a while- normally I just give up...my real struggle is getting bast the two week mark- week one is coming to an end and I feel much better about myself then I did a go a week ago.

25/08/2018

Wow this puts into perspective...first full body 😬

24/08/2018

Face to Face Friday...we’ll only have my starting face today lol

22/08/2018

Wanted to reminder this because it is yummy...turkey sausage, shrimp, zucchini and squash and creole seasoning- yum yum

22/08/2018

Yep it happened today- a child said I don’t think she will fit thru the gate she is big.
Now disclaimer this child is so young and I know this beautiful child loves me and if she loves me enough to say truth why can’t my own mind say that to myself while I am shoving 2200 calories down my throat in one sitting.
I am mad at myself because I didn’t want her parents to be embraced she said this- because it is TRUE!
I am mad because I let my self get to this point.
Believe it or not I love myself- I love my heart- I love that I still have a chance to change.
This is a wake up call...thank you to this beautiful young child for speaking truth- you have no idea how amazing your words and honesty are to me and how much you helped me.
So about my week- so far so good. Decided to make the following my check in days.
Monday- Make Goals Monday
Tuesday- Truth Tuesday- what are my real truths and struggles
Wednesday - Weigh In Wednesday
Friday- Face to Face Friday
Saturday- Side by Side Saturday (full body pics)
- need a break on Thursday and Sunday lol.
So Weigh In Wednesday - 228.2 (started 08/20 at 232)
.8

20/08/2018

Goals for week 1- (yep only weekly goals monthly seems like to far of a stretch right now)
1) Drink 120oz water a day- this reminds me I need to buy some more TP 😂
2) Put EVERYTHING in My Fitness Pal this week- the good, the bad, the ugly!
3) Be positive about this journey-I can do this!
Weight 232lbs- pictures to come tomorrow and measurements on Wednesday!

20/08/2018

Today is the day- or so I pray this time it really is. Do I know I will make mistakes, excuses, etc...yep.
But I need accountability and this is the one way I am hoping it will happen.
To share my story, my struggle, my desire to finally get healthily one step at a time.
Will I fail - yes.
Will I prevail- you better believe it!
