Weigh In Thursday
AKA the post I really don’t want to write.
Yeah… it was that bad…
Let me just start off by saying I’m not going to make any excuses… I screwed up and I’m just reaping the consequences of my actions. I thought that I could do bad the first part of the week, then make it up with a little hard work at the end and come out with a small loss. Well… that...
So I promised myself that when I hit 30 lbs total lost that I was going post a link to this blog on my facebook and open it up to all my friends. I’m not quite at 30 lbs yet (25.4 total so far), but I’m getting really nervous. I know that my close friends have my back, and will be supportive, but I’m nervous about the others. I know I shouldn’t be, and that more than...

is once again postponed till tomorrow. It’s becoming a habit that I’m not to happy with, but it happens when you have a weight loss partner. Oh well, Thursdays’ the new Wednesday anyway…
I wanna thank bighipsbigheart for promoting me on Tumblr Tuesday. If you haven’t yet, go check her out, follow her, and encourage her because she’s a huge encouragement for...
I’m sitting here in my Business Statistics II class during a review for our first test coming up next Tuesday (that I haven’t studied for at all), and I’m browsing Tumblr and facebook.
I think I need help.
Couch To 5K Week 1 Day 1
IS DONE!!!
I finally was able to get off my butt and start it. It even went pretty well after the “incident”.
My medicine kicked in right before the first mile, and I wound up blowing chunks (great visual, eh?) in the bathrooms near the tennis courts on the route I jog (<== not classifiable as a runner yet). Not a fun thing when you’re jogging with a member of the...

OMG I so want one. Why the crap were toys like these around when I was a kid… all we had was GI-Joes and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles… now kids get laser tripwires? What’s next… pet sharks with flippin’ laser beams attached to their heads? (100 internetz to whoever gets that reference)

It’s that time again… Weigh In Wednesday.
This time I’m actually getting to do it on Wednesday, so that’s exciting. Anyway, the results:
Starting Weight: 353.8 lbs Last Week: 330.6 lbs This Week: 328.4 Weekly change: -2.2 lbs Total change: -25.4 lbs
That’s right… I lost all the weight I gained last week, and then some. Of course being bed ridden and...
Went walk at it...
Felt good to get out and get active again, even if it was just a short walk.
Wound up walking 2.24 miles in 42 minutes… not great, but I don’t think it’s so bad considering I was stuck in bed yesterday with the flu…
I was going to try to jog some of it, but my stomach was having no part in that plan… as soon as I picked up the pace even in the slightest I felt like...
Finally I feel half-way normal again. I’m so glad to be over (for the most part) the flu. Now if I could just get my stomach back on track things will be great.
I’m thinking of going on a walk later tonight to kinda get back in the swing of things. I would run some (I still haven’t gotten to start C25k and I really need to… like bad) but I just don’t know if my...
2 slices of a medium supreme pizza and one small piece of cheese bread… That’s all I’ve been able to hold down since Wednesday. At this point, the mere mention of food makes me nauseous. Not a fun way to spend the weekend.
Unofficial WIW Results
On Friday I know…
Anyway, I wasn’t able to go to Weight Watchers for an official weigh in on Wednesday due to being sick, but I weighed in at the doctors office yesterday (turns out I’ve got the flu… joy) so that can count for this week. Keep in mind I don’t know how accurate this scale is compared to Weight Watchers.
Anyway,

January 26th, 2009 — A Wednesday.
At this point, I was 32 days into this journey.
I was sitting in Bernard Hall, the offices of the school newspaper. We were meeting, like we did every Monday, to pitch and assign upcoming stories. But this day I couldn’t concentrate. I was too distracted by a…
This is so true. I’m only 25 pounds into my journey, but that 25 pounds...
I was supposed to start C25k Yesterday, but due to school and Mom (she wasn’t feeling good last night so I stayed home with her) couldn’t.
I was going to go this morning, but slept in. I’ve got to go this afternoon. The problem is by the time I get there it’s gonna be packed and I HATE that. I get so self-conscious in the gym. I can’t wait till get gets warmer...
Random Things I Learned Over the Weekend:
Meant to do this post yesterday, as it would’ve made more sense, but I found out yesterday that I have two tests this week that I had no clue about (FYI Tumbling during class is not a wise decision) so it got postponed till today.
Anyway, here’s some random things I learned in bulleted format (just cause):
Random blizzard is random (and people here don’t know how to drive)

When I exercise I don’t want to go to the gym and just run or just lift weights… I like to have a plan
The problem is I haven’t had a plan in awhile, and as such haven’t worked out in a long time. Obviously there were other factors (finals, Christmas, starting a new University), but lack of plan was a major contributor.
I think I’ve come up with a plan though, and...
Weigh Day Postponed.
Well, missed weigh day today. Well I technically could’ve gone, but I wanted to wait for my weight loss partner, and she couldn’t make it today. We’re going tomorrow though, so it’s all good.
I’ve got to be honest though… I’m absolutely dreading it. I just came off a fast and binged hardcore this week. Not proud of it, but what’s done is done. ...
The Reason for This Blog
I feel like I need to clarify why I stated this blog.
When I first started my weight loss journey I posted my how much weight I’ve lost and miles I walked each week on my facebook status. Of course I had a lot of people supporting me and congratulating me and everything, and that was nice, but as time went on I felt like they were starting to think I did it just for attention.
The truth...
