FAT=UGLY

Ayodele A added an entry about Lose Weight : Some people think you should embrace yourself, whatever weight you are. Um, I disagree..I hate being fat. I look discusting. Yes, I have a pretty face, but that doesn’t cut it. I have always hated my weight. I always wanted to get away from those big people stores and shop at normal ones. I wanted guys to look at me the way they look at skinny girls. Yes you need to lose for your health. But I want to lose because I feel like it would build my self-confidence and self-esteem, and I would feel so much comfortable with myself. This really needs some work.

The Ghrelin Gremlin

Carm added an entry about lose weight : Do you know what Ghrelin is? I found this definition on the web: a hormone that relays messages between the digestive system and the brain. It works to stimulate appetite, slow metabolism, and decrease your body’s ability to burn fat. Lack of sleep produces Ghrelin. That’s probably one of several contributing factors in my scale’s refusal to budge in the downward direction. It’s frustrating.

Day 26 June 13 Goal Looking Doubtful

minxycat added an entry about lose weight : B: flaxseed cereal, milk S: carrots L: two tortillas, rice, beans S: apple D: broccoli soup, salad, 2 tortillas with cheese O.K. not a great day because I should have had just one tortilla at lunch and dinner. From now on I’m only having one tortilla per meal until I reach my goal. Definitely feeling a little too stuffed. The soup was great and I’m going to do more soups. They’re healthy and pretty diety. I am never going to make my goal of 130 by June 13 if I don’t kick it up a notch. Tomorrow I’m going to be strict. No cheese and lots of mean green.

David added an entry about lose weight : At the beginning of last week I was kinda slacking on what I was eating, but towards the end I really started working hard on this. I think it will be easier when school is over in two weeks.

i guess that's why..!

hopeNdetermination77 added an entry about lose weight : I am finding this goal one of the hardest things to do!! and i found out why. i have an overeating disorder! i didn’t completely realize it but i knew my eating habits weren’t right. i generally eat healthy, but i eat way too much. if i wasn’t as active as a am, i would be obese (SCAREY!!). i think i will go in for behavioral therapy. 80% of the time it is supposed to work for overeaters, so here i go…

lostdusk added an entry about lose weight : I’ve drunk so much milk today I’ll probably wake up a cow haha. Never mind though…I’m supposed to drink the equivilent of about 2 pints a day any way. Milk isn’t too expensive anyway – it’s all the fruit I’m eating that hikes up the food bill! I think my mum is finally becoming accepting to my healthy eating. Today when we were shopping, she bought some cornish pasties, but said I could have some fish instead. A couple of weeks ago she would have scolded me for even thinking of not eating the pasty.

A shocking slight drop again this morning!!

LiLmissSunshine added an entry about lose weight : 133.2 lbs this morning!! Yeah!! I lost some more!! I really hope this keeps up!! It’s getting me going! I walked 4 miles again this morning! The past 2 days it’s felt hard. I’ve had plans to start weight training and I probably should, but I’ve been struggling to make it through my morning walk, so I don’t want to push myself too hard and then exhaust myself into not wanting to work out anymore. It took everything in me just to get to the park today, but the point is, I MADE IT ! 13.2 lbs until I reach my goal! It doesn’t sound like a lot, but it really feels hard for me to break past 130. I seem to get stuck there a lot. Maybe it won’t be so difficult this time!I’ve been keeping track of what I’ve been eating every day, and it keeps me from OVER eating. Maybe that’s the key for me.
