so I gained 3 lbs back musta just been water weight.. dang it… I knew it was too good to be true to lose 3 lbs in 3 days lol but I am down another pound to 118 hopefully this is fat not water I guess I will have to wait n see

Today I stepped on the scale (7 weeks post the most crushing break up of my life)  and I weighed in at 116.. I am so thrilled … even at my lowest weight  last yr I was 119, then I gained some of my weight back and hit 127 … I was about 126 or so 7 weeks ago and now I am down 10 lbs at 116

I am thrilled… like I said I have never been 116 besides maybe when i was like … 11 or something…(which doesn’t count)

I have never been 116 as an adult woman……  I feel v sexy !!!

I am only 1 pound away from my mini goal of 115 and 6 lbs away from my goal of 110

It is also my goal to tone up arms BACK (as is my trouble spot) hips and a little bit of my tummy..

What I have been doing is eating healthy and trying to  watch calories

I have been replacing my calories with protein as opposed to all carbs ( more eggs , proetin bars, cottage cheese chicken etc )

I have been working out a few times a week ( cardio mixed with some light weights )

 I have bought low in calorie treats there are these fudgsicles at costco called healthy choice that are delish and only 90 cals and also skinny cow makes some very yummy treats that are low in calories

I was also taking estro sense,,,I don’t know if this had anything to do with the weight loss…It helps your body to metabolize the extra estrogens you pick up from toxins … extra estrogen can store fat so it doesnt hurt my body was metabolizing estrogens

Also I take a multi vitamin  and Msm powder for overall health. I find the msm powder really helps with my skin and hair..

RECIPE FOR PROTEIN PANCAKES( V HIGH IN PROTEIN)

mix in food processer equal parts oatmeal (I like instant brown sugar by quaker but you can pick your own)

cottage cheese

egg whites

you can add cinnamon

you can add a bannana if you wish but this will increase calories

 can add a teaspoon vanilla if you wish

 then you just cook let cool and eat

These are a little harder to cook than traditional pancakes because the mix is different but you just have to keep a close eye and not turn until ready

 I like adding ed smith syrup as is v low in calories only 30 calories for 3 tablespoons !

if you like u can sprinkle a teaspoon icing sugar

sooo I am 11 pounds away from My dream weight that I don’t ever remember being

 I am going to apatly name this Challenge

The lAST ELEVEN POUNDS

My plan to lose the weight is to work out 3-4 times a week

vary my calorie intake between 9 and 1400

try to eat more often  as to boost my met

try to vary work outs  when I hit a plateau

not eating too much popcorn( as is my weakness)

not to let setbacks /mistake days

discourage process

I am  hoping to lose the weight within100 days

So today will be DAY ONE OF MY 100 DAY CHALLENGE

my plan for breakfast is to make protein pancakes for myself very filling and about 400 cals (mix=oatmeal egg whites and cottage cheese)

I overate yesterday, not good…. but am sorta making up for it today ? .lol at least i worked out yesterday, I dunno, I really have to start improving here

 here is an updated picture of me

so today i worked out which was good but ate all my calories by lunch…. wow stoopid ! lol … will try to hold myself of on tea tonight… gosh

yesterday I did okay I stopped counting calories at the end of the day so im not sure how much i ate … not good… going to try and do well today, will blog about progress tomorrow

Okay so I am back blogging, good start…..It is morning and I am about to head for work

For breakfast I had 2 christmas oranges and one fiber one bar for a total of about 200 cals

the last two days I have done decent with my calories…. I am at 124.8 this morning down from 125.2 a few days ago although it may be too soon to really make any declerations for my weight..

I sliced my tow open a few days ago and am waiting for it to heal before I jump back on the treadmill thoughI could probably manage the stationary bike.

I am also trying this thing in life where I try not to let the little things stress me out and just feel zen lol

my boyfriend is back in about two weeks I would love to be around 123 by the time he gets back.. he has already been gone for 5 weeks

here is a pic of him

lol I find him very handsome, we have been dating for about 7 months , Overall he treats me very well and is a good guy, I just hope it stays that way

My mini goal is to get to 122 and then my next mini goal is 120….

HELLO!

let me start of by saying that I have be on and off of this site for years.

One thing I was buddyslimians to know is that you have helped me so much!!

Whenever I use this site success comes in time as my weight tracker shows.

Also, I want you people to know that you are all so inspiring, whenever I hear the song crazy dreams by carrie underwood I always think of the bloggers on buddy slim.

Today, I logged on to buddy slim after a VERY VERY long hiatus and I started browsing through all my old comments from past blogs, it hit me instantly, I miss this.

My thoughts on blogging are mixed

On the one side it does wonders for me, On the other sometimes I have a hard time keeping up with blogs and it can seem like a chore sometimes.

On the positive side it holds me accountable and sometimes I wont eat something bad because then I know I will have to blog about it later. On the negative side sometimes when I have a bad eating day I avoid blogging about it even though I SHOULDN’T do this.

I have not been on here for a long time, it’s nice to see some of the old faithfuls are still here.

If you read my last blog before this you will know where I am… not in a great spot, I have been feeling really bad about my weight and I NEED YOUR HELP. I have gained 5 or 6 pounds and have been trying to get it off the past 3 weeks but have been very unsuccessful.

I have come to the conclusion that I need to start blogging again. Maybe blogging is just what I need to get back on track. This can sometimes be challenging for me though, especially since it takes awhile to build up readers for your blog. Sometimes you feel there is no point in writing a blog if no one will read it…. at the same time I truly believe it is good to blog wether or not anyone reads it. The process of blogging can be an indivdually calrifying process. I really need some support on  here and if anyone wants to commit to my blog I will commit to theirs

please help

I also need help with commitment to blogging

I really feel that blogging will be key to getting me back on track

peace and love

I have gained 5 lbs and I cannot seem to get it off I have been trying for the past 2 weeks I am vwery stressed i work almost full time i go to university full time as well and i literally never get a day off….. I broke down and cried to my bf the other day… H e is away for work for a couple months and I am afraid he will notice the weight gain when he gets back…. im scared of not being beautiful to him and im scared of losing control over my life……

I hav been on this weight loss journey for almost two years now and am sorry to say even though I have reached quite a happy weight(though still 10 to 15 lbs away for final goal) I  still maintain some bad habits on and off..

 binging and eating in front of the tv and having lazy no exercise spells

 I binge ate today.. doritos popcorn … half tub of iccream…. chocolate

very embaressing but hey its the truth

 a lot of my eating the majority of my binging is done in front of the tv

 so I am about to cut my service until i reaCH  my final goal ? drastic ? m,aybe ,,, i have a boyfriend and friends but live alone in a condo…

I want to kick this tv eating habit once and for all it has a power over me and maybe this is the only way  I can do it

I have gone on and off on not eating in front of the tv it is quite the addiction for me

 I noticed in the pass I had a lot of sucess with buddyslim but have stopped blogging maybe I should start again
