A good couple of days


Got on the scale today and I am down another pound.  This is a total of 17 lbs now.  I realize it is not normal to lose this quickly so I know it might stabilize of slow down but I still feel great.  I saw my mom yesterday and she said, you've been losing weight, I can see it in your face.  I am really excited about my progress.

Well I now down 16 and continuing my hour and 35 min daily exercise routine.  Yesterday I ate a big Walmart salad which was really good.  It was 600 calories but was my meal of the day.  I have coffee for breakfast and at night my dinner was 2 hard boiled eggs and a low fat yogurt witch is totally like desert.  Strawberry shortcake is my total favorite!  So I am really happy with my progress and continue to be super motivated which is great!

The Weekend

Ah the weekend.  I at almost nothing on Friday and I might not have eaten anything at all if others were't pushing me to eat as I was at a party.  I ate some of a small salad and a small piece of steak.  The downfall was that I got totally drunk that night.  It was a crazy night good and bad.  Glad I didn't have much of a hangover but I have never been that drunk in my life and I never want to go there again either.  It is not fun to be that drunk.

Saturday I hung with my sisters but I think I ate really well for being with them.  When they had dinner I had a side salad.  When they got a treat I ate half.

Monday I ate well, I did have some Cheetos, that was my "bad" thing but I did walk for at least 5 miles and did yoga for 35 min.  Every day I do 35 min of yoga and go at least 3 miles on the treadmill.  Things are moving even if it is slowly.  I have dropped 14 lbs now.  YAY!

July 7th & 8th

Thinspiration
Well I am down another pound. YAY!  I have not been as good as I should though.  Yesterday started really well, by 2PM all I had had was a bean burrito.  Then I went for an hour on the treadmill and 35 min of yoga.  My downfall was the swimming party last night.  They had baked chicken which was good but I did have some potato salad, maybe a half cup and 1/4 of a roll.  At home, the lesson again is don't buy what you don't want to eat.  My daughter made brownies and I had two!!!  at like 10PM no less.  That sucked because my day had started so well.  Today is a new day again though and I plan on doing better.  Again there is a party tonight so drinking can be an issue.  I want to drink though, its so much fun!  Eating will be better and of course I will exercise again.

Depression is again an issue.  I have no real reason to be sad all of the time.  I don't want to take meds because of the side effects although I know they help me.  I have wondered about going on the nicotine patch.  i don't want to take up smoking for all the obvious health issues but maybe the patch will help with my mood and with weight loss.  I have been taking vitamins and fiber in capsule form.

Well it is the weekend and I HOPE for a GREAT one!

Thinspo Quotes


Do not give up on what you want most, for what you want at the moment.

Losing weight is good/gaining weight is bad

The difference between want and need is self control

Stop poisoning your body with food.

If you have weight to lose, lose it. It wouldn’t be there if you weren’t supposed to lose it.

Every time I have the opportunity to eat, I have the strength to refuse.

An ordinary girl, an ordinary waist – but ordinary’s just not good enough today.

Everything I want to be, I am, only buried under a layer of fat.

Strict is my diet, I must not want
 
Eat to live, don’t live to eat.

Good girls don’t swallow

Just say no and keep your mouth closed.

If you wish to grow thinner, diminish your dinner, And take to light claret instead of pale ale; Look down with an utter contempt on butter, And never touch bread till it’s toasted – or stale.

An imperfect body reflects an imperfect person

Food is a hinderance to your progress

Don’t eat anything today that you’ll regret tomorrowI’m not starving myself. I’m perfecting my emptiness

Thinner is winner

I can get thinner. I can cut it all off. I can wear low slung Levi’s and crop tops and long straight dresses like willowy models, and I will grasp with the breathlessness of being airborn. I can fly and be free. I never realized how easyit was.

What’s in your fingers today is on your hips tomorrow

Calorie’s can’t make you happy

You’ve come too far to take orders from a cookie

Nothing tastes better than feeling thin

Thin people look good in any kind of clothes

My Quest

This is my quest.  I want to become anorexic or at least close to it.  I want to be that thin and have the will power to go there.  I don't want to die from it but I think I would not ever get that thin.  I just no longer want my weight to define me.  This is a HUGE quest but I think for the first time in my life I am really at that point where I WANT to lose the weight, FOR ME not for a man or for someone else but for myself.  I want to be in control of something that I am completely responsible for.  Only I can choose what I eat and how I exercise.

After each baby I gained 20 pounds.  I have had 10 kids so there you go.  I am 5' 10" and my highest weight was 308.  I have lost 12 pounds in a month and that is not good enough.  I have a goal.  I want to be 149 by next April 1st.  Right in time for a cruise that I have planned and put money down on.  I want to look good.  I want me to look at me.  I am not too old to have attention of men even younger men (if a 29 year old thinks I am attractive at my current weight just wait how many men will think I am hot when I am truly thin.  I am excited for my quest and i don't remember ever feeling this way.  After all this time with my kids and my depression from my dysfunctional marriage and my horrible husband.  I want to break away and become thin for me.  I am going to post some fantastic pics and info that I see on this site so it can be an inspiration..or I should say, thinspiration
