Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call

[greenfamily004 172]

NGM- it's ok!!! Your doing great!!

We all do it from time to time.

I've been so out of touch for a week or so now. We went on a family vacation. Thankfully, I didn't gain any weight!!!

I didn't always make the best choices so I'm trying to get back on track.

I did horrible this weekend and i didnt care but i found myself going back to where i was a year ago...i dont want to do that again!!!

Sooo i went and got stuff to start back tomorrow super strict and back at the gym..im hoping being super strict for a few weeks will give me the kick i needed and lose some weight haha

I also need to do some serious toning..i also think a boob job might b in my future i cant stand how they look :-(

I'm up two pounds from yesterday????? What gives??? One day really???

Jenn- I'll be back to basics today with you.

Strength in numbers right?

I've noticed I'm snacking more. I also just started using Crystal Light in my Water and I was never doing that before either.

I don't want to start old habits so I guess I'd better buckle back down so I can reach my goal weight.

I still have 30 some odd lbs till goal..id prob be there if i worked out but i dont..i have all the dvds..gym membership...wii fitness stuff including zumba...i just for the life of me cannot learn to enjoy it. I would like to start running so thats my plan its a good way to tone and im shed enough whee my knees should be good. Ill start the couch to 5k..maybe one day ill get to run a 5k..or 10k...hmmm. id just be happy being at 100 lbs lost at my year..so i have three months to lose 15 lbs.

Had something very confusing happen this weekend! I have been in a stall for like a month and still have like 13 lbs to goal, but I have just been thinking if I just keep making good choices, getting my Protein in, drinking lots of Water and I have upped my cardio I would eventually get there, right? This weekend went to Shreveport for my dad's birthday and thought I'm going to splurge and not feel guilty and get back on track on Monday, so I have many low-cal cocktails, a bite or two of dessert, movie popcorn and snacked! I know I consumed a lot more calories than I have been up to this point and got on the scale this morning and lost a lb!!! What is that about???? I was really stuck for the last month but doing everything right and then do what I consider now splurging this weekend and it got the scale moving again? Makes no sense to me! Anyone else have any theories?

What do u normally consume for calories? Eating too few puts ur body into starvation mode so it holds onto the fat etc. Maybe because you went higher than normal it tricked ur body into releasing.

What helps is doing a day or two a week about 300 or 400 cals more than ud normally do so that your metabolism stsys active.

Jenn, I actually have been upping my calories this last month and try to push to get somewhere between 1000 to 1100 and usually am pretty close. But I think you are right that my body went oh look she had 2 bites of bread and some vodka cranberrys! Lol. I don't care I'll take it and try to switch things up a bit! Maybe now that my exercise level is higher maybe I need to extra calories.

[newgrandmother 725]

man i have over 60lbs to go and ive been a snacker lately. but i also noticed when i eat more calories i drop lbs. i also had a big 8lbs loss in the month of march, and may nothing for june bummer

[greenfamily004 172]

NGM- I understand. I've been a slacker lately also. We are all 9 months out and it's easy for us to get too comfortable with our food choices.

I've got to buckle down to business.
