Starting again!

I gave up for the longest time and I am very disappointed in my self, But I have decided to start again. So here we go! My goal is 200 by march 13 this is at least 4 pounds a week!

Current weight 257

Goal for the week 253

I got down to 218 then gained it back I never let my self get under 218 and I don't know why I got there a couple times but then would just give up this time I am determined to get to 200 pounds then continue from there. :)

Weekly update!

So I have now been on this program for over 5 weeks, today is the first day of week 6. I have not cheated once no matter how tempted I was. But I have lost 26 pounds and counting. Which is awesome.

starting weight 320

last weeks weight 238

this weeks weight 235

I finally did start slowing down but you never know what will happen. :) I have 15 more pounds to go until I have met my 100 pound mark. My goal is to have that done by march. If I keep going at this rate by summer I should be under 200 pounds. Which like I told you will be the happiest day of my life. I have never seen numbers this low on the scale before. It's awesome.

In this picture the left one is me starting out at 320 pounds. In the right picture I am 252, I am now 238 but not doing another before and after picture tell I get to 197. :)

Finally updating

I know this has been forever since I have updated this. Well I have been super busy with work and junk. Any way I have started this amazing new program which I am in love with and wish I started way sooner. Well any way here is my update

Starting weight was 320

previous weight was 271

current weight is 238

Yep that's right 18 more to go tell I have lost 100 pounds. :) But no celebrating yet. I know that is a huge deal but after I lose those 18 more pounds I still have 70 more to go tell I reach my goal weight. Then that is when the real party will start happening. I started this back in march so if I can lose 18 more pounds by then I will have lost all that in 1 year. Which if you ask me is amazing. Anyway since I started this amazing program 4 weeks ago I have lost 23 more pounds. Which means I am now smaller then I have ever remembered being or seeing on a scale. If you want more info on the program I can message you some details. :) I am going to try to update this every week but honestly not promising nothing. LOL

Overdue update. :)

Wow it's been awile with everything that I have been doing. Well lets just start by what I have changed. I was stuck in the same weight for over a month so I kept trying different things. I recently started doing Insainty with my niece's which I have found out that I am not a fan of cardio at all. But in the end I guess it is all worth it. :) I am stilling eating my same amount of calories though and have stopped drinking sugar drinks from now on no matter how tempted I am I drink water. If I am not thisrty enough for water then I am not thirsty. Well now for my up date.

My starting weight
319

My previous weight
278

My current weight
271.

Yes I do still have a very long weigh to go but everyday I go I get a little closer to the finish line. I did set a goal to make by the first of Oct. of 21 pounds.  I only have 15 more pounds to go so I am hoping and working my butt off to get over that goal. :) I just want to say thank you to everyone that follows this and follows and supports me on facebook and myfitnesspals. It is really keeping me going.

Safe way to lose weight. :)

What Is A Calorie?

A calorie is a measurement created to represent the amount of energy contained in either the food (fuel) we put in or the energy (life and movement) we take out. One pound of fat is equivalent to 3,500 calories of fuel / energy. Put in 3,500 calories more than you need and you will put on 1 pound of weight, take out 3,500 calories of energy more than you put in and you will lose 1 pound of weight.
All calorie controlled weight loss programs are based around recording and understanding how many calories you put in to your body verses how many you expend as energy output and creating a deficit, i.e. less in than out. The act of recording the calories makes us very conscious of what we put in and take out of our bodies. Being aware of the facts puts us back in control so we can make changes and build these changes into permanent habits, such as reducing our portion size or increasing our exercise level.
In today’s world with convenience food it is all too easy to end up providing our body with more fuel than it needs. Technology has also removed the need for us to expend as much energy in every-day routine tasks, just think about what we would have done before we had:

• Washing Machines
• Dishwashers
• Vacuum Cleaners
• TVs
• Computers
• Cars

These are all essential elements of today’s life but each one of them means we dont need to move as much or use as much energy as people would have done previously.

How To Lose Weight Safely & Sustainably?

How to Lose Weight Safely:

In order to effectively lose weight you need to do it in a safe controlled manor, any calorie values mentioned on this or any website are always averages, the safest way is always to start by consulting your physician.
That said, when you create a calorie deficit of the correct amount you will burn fat, however make that deficit too large (i.e. not eating enough) and your body will think you are starving and lower the rate at which it burns energy, your body will also start to burn muscle instead of fat, if in future you put weight on again you will end up with a higher fat percentage than you started.
Unless under medical supervision don’t drop your calorie intake lower than 1,200 calories per day for a woman or 1,800 for a man and do not try to lose more than 2lbs per week. The average ideal calorie deficit is typically between 500 and 1000 calories per day which equates out to 1 to 2 pounds of weight loss per week.

Update.

So I have now lost 40 pounds :). I am quite happy about that, still no different in clothes size though exepect my bra. But I am going strong.
