Time to resolve.

Looking at Fitblrs to get pumped again.

Why do I go back and forth on my health so often?

You are not fat.

You are a soul. You are a mind. You are not fat. You have fat. You also have fingernails, but you aren’t fingernails, are you? You have hair, but you aren’t hair, are you? You have fat, but you are not fat. You are beautiful.

Traveling / "Free"Dumb

Mon, 21 May 2012 01:01:34 -0400

I weigh 190. I am absolutely disgusted and saddened.

He’s right: “you cannot change the past, only the future.”

So, here is my brief plan — Begin being more active once again (slowly: walking first, gym later), no fast food, no chocolate, no soda, more water, less salt, stretching, swimming, biking, little to no smoking, rewards when goal weights are met (non-food related), getting friends to join me on my journey (boyfriend intends to), possibly attending food support groups, possibly seeing a nutritionist, and staying busy.

Goal weights will occur in 10 lb increments (180, 170, 160..).

My current overall goal is 160. When I reach this goal I will establish where to go from there - If I am happy with my current health routine, I will continue.

“If at first you don’t succeed: try, try again.”

“I think I can, I think I can, I think I can…”

“It’s never too late to begin again.”

“If you fall, get right back up.”

I took a true break from health over my Winter Break from college. Lowest weight = around 176; highest weight = around 188. I must break this barrier; I must get back in to better internal shape. I’m on my way, truely. Pilates (I am sore), kickboxing (which I am horrible at), gym sessions - cardio (I’ve gone 2x so far this month ~ 1x/wk — I’m hoping for 3x/wk again), walking, biking to class (weather-permitting), stretching, perhaps some yoga with the boyfriend (he’s so gangster), and healthy eating.

My muscles get so tight. I’m thinking that utilizing more stretching would be benefical. Little things: more H20, less sodium, progressive cardio, parking farther away, being mindfull, stressing less. …Stress. The biggest thing I must overcome. Anyway:

I am beginning again. Here I go.

October to November

Tue, 01 Nov 2011 14:56:00 -0400

I decided at the beginning of October to weigh only the first and the last day of the month. October 1st my weight was: 185.4 and on October 31st my weight was 180.8. I am happy with this loss, however I know it could have been better. I have been sick for nearly two weeks now, so most of this loss was not healthy. Also, I must mention, I snacked on candy all month long. I plan on getting “back on track” during the month of November.

My first goal of November is to get over this illness. The majority of this day will be spent resting (with plenty of fluid, of course!). After I feel better, I plan on beginning to do light exercises (walks initially, then to bike rides). Through-out the month I am going to eat well, and most importantly, eat mindfully! November is going to be about re-establishing my health and my goals. New goals will come, inevitably. I am hopeful; I am excited. Happiness is helpful.

I hope the new boy supports me in this. I know he will.

I hope I am able to do well with work, school, socializing, romance, and my health.

I’ve got disssss! :)

Before: 248 pounds

After: 128 pounds
I find this woman SUCH an inspiration. If she can get down to 128 from 248 then I can get there from 140

It’s time again. Lots of change. It is time to commit and focus. It’s time to improve myself and let go. To help others, but not disregard myself. Time to push, time to do. It’s time.

Funny how people have a one-tracked mind when it comes to working out. They think it’s all about weight loss.
