| Week 5 and 6 |
[Jul. 13th, 2005|12:52 pm] |
I completely forgot to post last week...but that week was another bad one... I was a bad bad bad girl. Although I ate cookies, ice cream, philly cheese steak sandwich (2 days in a row!) it wasn't too bad...
Current: 271.2
Loss this week: Gained! .8 pounds
Total Net Loss: 5.8 pounds
Then, I started South Beach diet for fun and man do I like it!! It was hard at first but I'm getting used to it... Lookie what happened though! Huzzah!
Current: 264.6
Lost this week: 6.6!!!!!!!!!!! pounds
Total Net Loss: 12.4 Pounds!
My first goal by the way is changed to 10% of my starting weight of this phase of dieting, 27.7 pounds, aka 249.3 So 250! I'm almost there! Well...sort of! Close enough for me though... I'm finally in the lower 60's which hasn't happened since I got up there 2.5 years ago... hurrah again! |

| Week 4 |
[Jun. 29th, 2005|03:54 pm] |
Well this week wasn't too much better. My friend came up to visit me and I went out to eat twice...not only that but I hate extremely bad food for you... Even these monster cookie desert things... luckily I split them so maybe that is why the scale said this, and yes, I thought it was wrong so I did it 3 times XD
Current Weight: 270.4
Weight Loss this week: 1.8 lbs
Net Loss/Gain: - 6.6 lbs
So... this was my first month of dieting and it wasn't too painful. I need to work a lot on my slip ups. Anywho, I did make my monthly goal! To celebrate I don't know what I'll do..probably nothing since I celebrated earlier this week at some craft stores. Oh well! At least I got some stuff!
Next month's goal is this: 265.4 lbs! Going to try for 5 pounds! Sounds like fun yet still manageable. If I make it, that will have been my lowest weight in about 2 years *shudder* This is quite sad is it not XD |

| Week 3 |
[Jun. 22nd, 2005|01:44 pm] |
I had a weekend of gluttony... a three day weekend. I knew I'd gained but I'm extremely disappointed that I gained this much. Bad Kim!
Gained 2.6 pounds
Current Weight 272.2
Net Loss- 4.8 (At least I'm not negative though....)
Next week will be much better! |

| Week 2 Progress |
[Jun. 15th, 2005|02:07 pm] |
Well... Week 2 is officially over...today was weigh day! Here are my results....
*drumroll please*
Current Weight: 269.6
Lost this week: 4.6 lbs!!!!!!!
Lost total: 7.4 lbs
Wow!! This week was a good one for me! I think I lost so much because I drank a ton of water... I love water now...very yummy in my tummy! Oh goody! Now it is time for a good lunch! |

| Heh |

So... I've got a test tomorrow and another on Thursday but I can't concentrate...right now, all I'm wondering is if I lost more weight....luckily, tomorrow is the Wednesday Weigh Day and this diet will have officially lasted 2 weeks. Hurrah! I'm actually sticking with a plan! Actually, a big help was discovering instant mashed potatoes can be microwaved (and have less points) and that turkey bacon is absolutely delicious... Yum! Needless to say I can't wait till tomorrow! |

| Grocery Shopping |

Dieting Tip #1
Never go grocery shopping when you are hungry...if you do, bring a point counter or look at the stuff in the foods you are craving. If you feel you have to have something...by some hard candies (sugar free) or ones that aren't that bad like Werther's Original and suck on one... it helps a lot *snicker* I wonder why I know this.... |
|
|
| Why the change in heart... |
[Jun. 3rd, 2005|12:58 pm] |
Well, lately my parents have been on a diet craze... My mom recently lost 50 pounds (in 4 months) on the South Beach Diet...although she has yet to progress to Phase 2. My dad has lost a bunch of weight too since he restarted his weight watchers bit...he weighs about 15 pounds less than me I think (Eeps! You know its bad when you've outgrown your parents). While I had a 3-week vacation before going back to summer school... I was eating nicer for a bit and decided I should just grow up and get over myself. So my bro and I have been talking about it and decided we'd do WW together.
The plan is, we'll try our hardest to stick to the diet...if we have a failure like a cookout with friends or going out and accidently going to a buffet XD We'll only eat that for the day and then start up the next. I know that isn't the healthiest...but then again, gorging oneself at a buffet isn't healthy either. Also, instead of 5 fruits/veggies a day we are doing 3...because lets face it. We don't like them to begin with and if we are forced to eat them, we'll only stop dieting and just expand even more. Needless to say, I hope this plan works... I did what I swore I wouldn't (weigh myself early) and I'm not going to say what it was now b/c then if it changes for the worst I'll be a sad woman...hence, I'll just grin and keep up my spirits.
What really motivated me to use this thing again? Well, it was actually the fact that I stumbled upon someone's weight journal...unlike them though, mine is technically private until I decide I'm brave enough to actually post it where people can read it. |
|
|
| Yes... I am a an idiot |
[Jun. 2nd, 2005|02:48 pm] |
Well.... what can I say except that in almost a year I have done... ziltch on the dieting front... however, considering that through the year 8ish pounds have managed to creep off...perhaps by the time I'm 40 I'll weigh something normal. Don't worry though... I have started again...actually I'm on day 2...yes... I made it past one day! This time though, I'm not alone, my brother is doing it as well. We decided we'd help each other out as much as possible. Needless to say, I am not doing South Beach as I tried once this year... I hated it (Although I'd love it if I liked the foods...one day I may try again). I am doing weight watchers though! Fun fun fun... I haven't done that in a while... I'm having problems eating that much food in one day. Considering I weigh a ton I get a ton of points and it is stressful really XD. I'm not sure how I'll do weigh ins... I want to stop checking...just let nature take its course...but my scale is so pretty! Perhaps I'll do it once every 2 weeks... that seems fair... I would do it once a month but that would probably kill me. Maybe I'll progress till I can do that.
Later I'll type my gain plan and reason for motivation, however, for now let me just say
Height: 5'3
HW: 285
CW: 277
Month Goal: 273 (I think I'm being fair...and overly generous..giving myself a pound a week)
Short Term GW: 255 (Minus 10%)
Long Term GW: 125 ish (I don't know what my weight should be.. I just want to be healthy) |

I was all in woe about halloween... I ate like a king...and I ate a lot of crap this week...somehow though, I'm only 271 pounds and it puzzles me. Perhaps my metabolism has crept up through working out? The world may never know...with my luck it is a fluke and come monday I'll be 280 pounds XD. My goal...get in the 60s now!

|
| Only one thing I can say |
[Oct. 25th, 2004|09:39 am] |
DAMN!
Ok... let me say this so I don't freak out and weigh myself everyday XD. I'll do a weekly weight report...
Start of the Week: Monday
End of the Week: Friday
So officially this week I start at...that's right...a sad sad: 274 lbs. *le sigh* |
|
|
| Ok...one last post today |
[Oct. 23rd, 2004|07:05 pm] |
I'm putting up one last post for today so I have a written agenda of what I'm going to start doing.
1. Exercise!!= I'm officially starting on Monday so my brother won't laugh... My mom mailed me up a bunch of aerobic tapes and I'm very excited...I can do one inbetween my class or after my classes... as long as my bro isn't home.
2. Continue with the Drinking of Water- I haven't gotten up to 8 cups a day yet but I'm getting there! Not having any other drinks but water helps a lot to get this goal accomplished
3. Modify my eating patterns...again...
LOL! I'm such a hypocrite and hippo... I just ate 3 oatmeal cream pies... Dayum! That's what happens when you haven't eaten anything all day and your brother tempts you... |
|
|
| Lookie what I'm adding! |
[Oct. 23rd, 2004|06:25 pm] |
This is going to be my progress bar...Rather sad right now if I could say so myself.
Basically I'm taking the amount I want to lose (165) and putting what I've lost on top! Lookie there! I'm already at 7%!! Isn't that great! It's odd...once I lose 28.5 pounds I'll have lost 10% of what I used to weigh...I'm half way there! |

|
|
| Well poo... |
[Sep. 27th, 2004|09:27 am] |
Ok... so I was having a great week, down to 272 pounds...then the parents visited...
Let's see after 2 days of eating crap I know I shouldn't have eated, I'm up to 276....4 weeks to take of 2 days of fun in which I didn't even eat as much as usual. DAMN DAMN DAMN... Alright that's my rant and status...at least I'm still negative from 280 though... -4 pounds/150something I need to loose. |
|

[Sep. 22nd, 2004|09:37 am] |

|
| Starting again |
[Sep. 14th, 2004|11:24 pm] |
Well...I'm a first class dipshit. I not only didn't accomplish my goal, but I also gained 5 pounds. Amazing, one can gain 5 pounds so fast yet it takes so much more to lose it. That is something about diets that suck ass. So, what am I doing? I'm tackling and DEFEATING my damn issues with weight. I do not want it to beat me again. What is my main inspiration, my dad now ways less then me. SHIT, that is not right and now I'm determined to change this. How? I'm not entirely sure yet...I'm going to be looking up stuff about metabolism etc. And I know I'll start eating breakfast and what not to allow myself to get better...I'm thinking I ought to find a recipe for a smoothie...blueberry perhaps? I don't know why blueberry...I don't really like them but it sounds good.
So, what is my goal, to beat my dad and be less by the time I get home at thanksgiving...I'm utterly depressed right now. and I have a horrible exam tomorrow morning so it is goodnight for me! |

Ah...the first post! Always a milemarker XD...Anywho let me tell you a bit about myself and this journal.
My name is Kim and I've been overweight since I was in the 3rd grade...I'm now 17. Back in the third grade my mom started me on dieting to stop the fatness while it was still young! In turn I kept getting heavier b/c I didn't like her food and would trade with my friends. Needless to say, there is a daily battle of food in my house that used to but me...then I became apathetic. Now I don't know what is worse...being angry at being told I am fat or not really giving a damn. At least with option one there is some motivation to change the lifestyle...but after being told for so long apathy sets in and viola! This is where I am today...not giving a damn. Yet obviously I do care a tad since I'm making this journal...my goal is to change my lifestyle and eating habbits... I don't eat enough and what I do eat is crap food. You know you're eating wrong when you actually crave a good meal instead of microwave dinners XD!
About my looks...for a fat person I actually think I look good...sure I've got a stomach I hate and a bad double chin, but looking at other people my weight, I feel like I look smaller...perhaps that is in my head but this runs in my family. My brother weighs a lot... I don't like telling b/c this is his private business but put it this way, he was 385 last year and it hasn't gone down (yet! he's losing weight too). He, looks like he weighs a lot less, probably b/c he is 6 ft tall and has a lot of muscle... I on the other hand am only 5 foot 2ish...and I've learned that all my fat seems to settle on my chest, butt, and hips... yet I don't look that bad lmao... in my opinion of course.
Let me give you current stats to let you know where I am at:
Current Weight (CW)- 275 <-OMFG! How did that happen?!?!? J/K
Long Term Goal Weight (GW)- 125 <-haven't been that since 6th grade...and back then that was over weight lmao
I'm guessing that my goal is to lose 1# per a week...52# per year... That means it could take 150 weeks... almost 3 years... That means by the end of college I could look well..normal! This is a huge task and challenge but I am so ready for it (ok... I'm in diet mode right now so what can I say! In about a week I may totally forget I actually made a journal here)
I've decided weekly weigh-ins are going to occur so that I'm on track... and here is my list of things I will do::::
1. Drink 8 glasses of water a day (At least!) < this is tough b/c I'm a Diet Pepsi freak... but alas... I shall learn to like, even possibly love water
2. Go to the gym at least 3 if not 5 times a week... I know this is unrealistic as I am lazy...but if I start working out now, going at school won't be so bad... <If I don't go tomorrow I will smack myself
3. Treat myself on a monthly basis- If I follow a diet for at least 85% of the month, I deserve a reward lmao... or else I won't continue it so ja.
Aside from these I'm going to be making modifications in the types of foods that I eat, adding more veggies and getting rid of my 100% carb diet LOL! B/c it obviously hasn't been working for me.
Signing off,
Kim
Short Term Goal
-------------------
By the time I get to school I want to be 10 pounds lighter - Reward for succeeding A Medium Chocolate Shake at Braums when I get to college
Time to get this done in : 27 days |
