I have been within my calories friday and saturday! Saturday i even went to the gym&nbsp; for 45 minutes yesterday. today i am doing alright, i am going let up just a little (not go nuts like usual) i think when i let my self 1 day a week to just eat normal foods it helps me get thru the rest of the week. BUT unlike other times that i&#39;ve let that happen, today if i&#39;m going to eat what i want, i am making sure i walk atleast 3 miles on the treadmill before i head back to school. Am i finally getting this right? i think so!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxSat, 14 Nov 2009 17:08:42 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:69434fbc-3fe0-498e-b210-df43e9a5de46Beachgirly<p>Hey all! as promised i was going to kick the weekends butt today, and so far so good!</p> <p>thursday i went a bit over on my calories, by about 300. unexpectedly went out for drinks (and dancing, so hopefully that burned a few off lol), but i did well on my eating all day. Yesterday (friday) i stayed within my calories, but didnt get a chance to make it to the gym. im&nbsp; okay with that though. Today, so far so good. I am going to try and make it to the gym later, the hours are weird on the weekends and im working, so i dont know, but i will definitly be doing atleast 40 minutes of toning DVDs. My clothes are still fitting the same, maybe a bit more loose. Can&#39;t wait til this weight is gone for good. I&#39;m gonna be a hot lil mama before my 22nd bday! thanks for all the support all!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxThu, 12 Nov 2009 12:22:05 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:395f259c-a4aa-4094-b88f-db14582d72afBeachgirly<p>drum roll please....</p> <p>I lost 1.4lbs this week!</p> <p>my current weight is now 130. I have worked my little butt off at the gym and intensely watched what I ate since sunday. Does the scale lie? i&#39;m not sure. but what i do know is i&#39;m taking this week as a victory and motivation to keep going harder with this. Thank you soo much everyone who left such kind messages when I was down and seriously considering giving up. You all mean the world to me.</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxMon, 09 Nov 2009 16:20:22 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:ad96bbc4-2745-467c-8c2b-7d318463c480Beachgirly<p>uggh i stink at weekends. went home for 3 days and ate all of ma&#39;s good cooking.

Friday I did good, Stayed UNDER my calorie limit. only by 20 but still. Yesterday I didn&#39;t do toooo bad. but it was my 1 day that i let go a week. and today I am back on track. chaaaanges! how is everyone doing?</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxFri, 30 Oct 2009 16:53:31 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:7076e714-4b0b-47dd-9545-3a7acf25f8eeBeachgirly<p>So, mid baking i am stopping to write this annoucement. You would all be so proud. I have baked about 85 cupcakes, 20 something pudding cups, and am about to start making cookies. I didnt even lick my fingers (more than once) I am running around with napkins and paper towels to wipe my hands every 5 seconds. (group halloween bakesale) So yeah just thought I would share!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxThu, 29 Oct 2009 12:21:49 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:0d663fb5-bab9-4587-b253-da19a4b30e79Beachgirly<p>so I weighed in this morning, and as expexted i gained.</p> <p>weihgt 132.2</p> <p>not quite a pound... </p> <p>I&#39;ve come to terms with it, and now i&#39;m ready to kick the weekends butt so history doesn&#39;t repeat itself!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxMon, 26 Oct 2009 15:11:43 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:1061f7cc-ede4-4e3f-9db8-cca9aac554a5Beachgirly<p>So i totally stink at weekends. Its like i just don&#39;t care. I eat whatever I want/however much i want. AND i don&#39;t excercise. I don&#39;t know why this is, because i like to excercise, and i feel like poop after i eat all the garbage. not to mention i undo plenty of good work. This weekend makes me scared of the scale thursday. i think i gained. </p> <p>note to self** in addition to weightloss goals, remember you are not a camel. you do not need to fill up friday through sunday to last the week. Since I don&#39;t think a loss is attainable this week, my goal is going to be to get through the weekend without sabotaging myself. </p> <p>i just keep telling myself... lifestyle change. </p> <p>on a positive note, went to the gym, ran 30 minutes on the treadmill... walk run atleast... 15 on the elliptical, 15 on the bike. and then i lifted for 15 minutes...ate breakfest this morning, had some yogurt and nuts. am about to do both my pilate tapes (20 min a piece) then eat lunch and off to class until 9 tonight. When I get back I will do my tae bo tape. hope everyones weekend was btter than mine!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxThu, 22 Oct 2009 12:10:00 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:52efa8fe-7f53-423d-bf83-ec94f2a34402Beachgirly<p>So funny story, I woke up this morning groggy as usual. Then I remembered it was thursday. Literally sprung out of bed, went to the bathroom, brushed my teeth, and was so excited to weigh myself. dont think i have ever said that before!! Good news is in... -2lbs!!!</p> <p>(re)Start weight: 135.0</p> <p>Week 1 weigh in 133.4 (-1.6)</p> <p>Week 2 weigh in 131.4 (-2)</p> <p>So amen to working hard and eating right, even when stressed out. Give me strength to stay strong this weekend, and not suck like i did last weekend. So relieved/excited. happy losing ladies!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxWed, 21 Oct 2009 17:30:32 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:a40d6a33-7d85-4139-8d09-2215f19caac5Beachgirly<p>i am doing pretty good today, I didnt get much sleep last night, so I didn&#39;t have time for the gym in the morning BUT i went on my lunch break. i did my taebo and buns dvd. I am doing good with my eating so far. I am going to watch my sodium for the rest of the day because I dont want it to effect my weigh-in. Is it weird that I am so nervous/anxious about it?! I want to know if I lost weight cause i been bustin my hump! Just excited about getting closer to my goals!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxTue, 20 Oct 2009 14:37:40 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:029bc066-e132-4d63-9b47-553acf4202bbBeachgirly<p>Doing good so far, went to the gym same as always, 30 minutes on the bike 30 on the elliptical. Did my taebo work out, and my pilates buns, will do my other workout DVD later. Had some cereal and yogurt for breakfest, and am ready for my day.&nbsp; Schools still crazy, but i am getting through it!</p> <p>The past few weeks have led me to realize that Maybe i need new goals considering ive been working my butt off and not seeing wonderful results.&nbsp; Maybe my body just loses weight slowly, and im okay with that.&nbsp; so here are the new goals:</p> <p>Start weight = 136</p> <p>Weight now = 133</p> <p>By Halloween= 130</p> <p>By Thanksgiving= 125</p> <p>By Christmas= 120</p> <p>End of January= 115</p> <p>Thats 18lbs to go in about 3 months. I can totally make that happen. If i see that I am losing faster, I will change up my goals, but until then i think this is a smart move so I stop getting so disappointed when I dont see -2lbs every week. As a side note, some gorgeous guy asked me to go out on halloween, so I figure i really, really, stick to the plan the next 2 weeks, and not only will i look great, I&#39;m sure my confidence will be high too. 3lbs in two weeks isnt unreasonable!</p> <p> So keep it up buddies, thanks for the wonderful support!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxTue, 20 Oct 2009 01:39:19 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:0e65fcd4-1b1f-48c9-ba6b-11351a3e5d03Beachgirly<p>So today was a good day (so far, still have a very long night of studying ahead of me!) woke up, went to the gym, did my taebo dvd, did my pilates dvd for my &quot;buns&quot; lol. stayed within my calorie limit. Had a killer headache, but am getting through it. Somebody told me I looked like I was losing weight today, they&quot;could see it in my face&quot;. It was a nice compliment. Its hard sometimes, because I don&#39;t have a tremendous amount to lose to be &quot;healthy&quot;.&nbsp; My BMI puts me between 97 and 127# and I am at 133. I am also very muscular (my calves are like cantalopes.. lol okay maybe not that big, but they are firm!), so I feel kind of cheated with the BMI thing. I keep telling myself, just another 5 pounds and I can say that I am officially not overweight anymore! Although I know for my little frame I will still need to continue losing to look good in clothes and feel good about myself. </p> <p>I get discouraged sometimes when I see everyone losing tons of weight so quickly, I&#39;m always like darn I would love a 6lb a week loss! I bust my butt in the gym atleast 4 days and darnit i want results! lol my battle would be like 1/3 of the way over! Sorry this is just me being a debbie downer, stressing out about other things as well today. Ultimately I will keep doing my thing, and I know I will get there. I just keep telling myself, this time next week you will be 131, this time in 2 weeks you will be 129, this time in 3 weeks you will be 127 etc. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for listening to me rant!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxMon, 19 Oct 2009 15:42:47 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:eb0eb509-8285-4f32-bbed-824e63e7ea27Beachgirly<p>Hey there everyone!</p> <p>my weekend wasn&#39;t too too bad, didnt stick to the diet but didnt go crazy either. back on trac today with my eating, already went to the gym and did my taebo!</p>http://www.slim-fast.com/members/Beachgirly/announcements/default.aspxFri, 16 Oct 2009 13:27:18 GMTb27fbe55-a45c-486c-8a8b-9ae2ace276c5:598d8b9d-683e-4386-810a-75a63526319eBeachgirly<p>so after all that wonderful work this past week, i was up late again last night studying, and i ate like an entire bag of mini rice cakes.. AND almost an entire bag of m&amp;ms. and no, not the small bags either. heh, dont know what got into me. had the major munchies, and i skipped dinner for some odd reason. i am not going to get discouraged, i will just do better today, and make sure i get my excercise in. i am going home to visit the fam for the weekend, so itll be tough, but im going to do it, cause ill cry if i gain a pound back. ugh. bad day!</p>
