First I wanted to apologize about the phone call which I totally monopolized with my whining and complaining. And it wasn't even about diet and eating so we couldn't commiserate together about it. But I did want to say thank you for letting me vent.
So, I don't know. I keep doing the same stinkin' thing. I mean, when you read all the success stories from women's world or similar mags these women aren't extraordinary . So what? Am I just motivationally challenged? I mean what is rock bottom (bc I thought I already hit it) and how many times do I need to go there? Sheesh! Blah. Also, I actually need to revise July 3rd blog bc I said I lost 0.4lbs...it was actually a gain of 1.8lbs. I don't know if I had weighed myself again during the week and saw 240 and that stuck in my mind so it was a loss by that following MON but I have 3 straight gains.
Here's last weeks update: Ate whatever every day. Worked out on MON and WED doing the RIPPED. I tried some high impact on WED and the calf did really good. I was going to try full high impact on FRI and overslept. I woke up at 615 by the time I would've gotten to class it would've been 3/4 over. I was really ticked off. We started a new season on MON and I love it. So I just stayed in bed til 11 and then got ready for work. I didn't even go to Turbokick class on SAT and I love that class too. Last MON (7/9) weigh in was 242.0. That is +2.4 lbs.
I guess I'm trying to get back on track: I'm trying to double up my workout again and just be mindful of my body. I did the high impact RIPPED today and was fine no pain in the legs. I am a little out of shaped though. In 2 weeks of wishy-washy workouts, my cardio is affected already. It's stupid...I mean how long did it take to get cardio fit? Months and in less then 2 wks it's already going down hill? Stupid.
So for MON 7/16/12:
WT: 242.8, +0.8 lbs
WO: 6am RIPPED, high impact!
Well the whole month of July was a big fat gain. 5 lb gain this month. This was supposed to be my super loss month. But hopefully today will begin my turn around.
You soooooo don't owe any apologies about our call, whatever! We are best friends, we have other stuff to talk about besides weight loss. It's all good!
ReplyDeleteBut speaking of which, lol - it sounds like you need to focus on the diet for awhile! Doubling the workouts will definitely help, but that's almost easy for you, as much as that boggles MY mind :) Until you get the eating part down, your total results aren't going to be as awesome as you want them to be. Same with me - when I get in The Mode, I can kick but on the eating part! But even if I cut my calories super low, if I don't MOVE my butt then I'm not going to have the body I want.
Be thinking about a specific diet plan you want to try (even if it's mindful eating that's fine, but you have to specify exactly what that means), because 7/30 we are doing a major restart! More of a reboost for you since you've been plugging along this whole time. But regardless. . . Get ready!
I just sent you an e-mail too instead of a blog (bc I'm dumb apparently) so check that too :)
Forgot I also wanted to agree with your comment about those magazine stories - I totally understand!!! They're like "I saw that picture and could not believe I let myself to get to that point" and then immediately lost 100 pounds. I'm like yeah, I've had that moment too - thousands of times!!!
