JakeySnakey's Diary

The FuunkyMonk speaks the truth! Though personally, I think Diet Dr Pepper tastes better than the regular kind; I'll have to agree to disagree on that point ;)
 
If you feel that you're getting to muscular, just stick to cardio. I wish I had more muscle mass, I'm so weak. :p If you feeling so bad maybe you need just a few more calories throughout the day. I don't know if that would change anything, just thoughts.
 
and now i just ate about 70 pistachios...about 250 cals....so im over 1600 now. i can't believe how much i eat! tomorrow i'll keep it under 1300...this is really outta hand!
 
Hey Now!! whats with the ugly hair comment??!!! No more of that, ya hear? You sound like me when I was young! I used to think I was on the not so great looking side until I realized that it just simply was NOT the case! And ta hell with your hair! Hair is hair. So stop that!! really, cause as far as PALE goes, your talkin to a super pale mama with even paler redheads for kids! I mean there are things I wouldnt mind changing, but hey! all of us here, including YOU are here because we CAN change our weights! That definitely means you too! You can control that!

February 13th Food

Breakfast: special k = 120
nonfat milk - 100
coffee = 50

Lunch: chicken and roasted veg. pita (i only ate half the pita bread but all
the insides....to bready so ill estimate) 250
1% chocolate milk = 130

Dinner: Vegetable pasta (lotsa zucchini, green peppers, onions, bean
sprouts and a mix of white and red sauce, guessing) 300
Oatmeal cookie = 120
Spanish bar cake = 320


TOTAL = 1390cals. Thats better....at least I didn't TOTALLY blow it from the second I woke up....I shouldn't have had the cake....SO many cals in that stupid cake. But I almost got a big chocolate milk but decided against it - i wasn't THAT thirsty! I also saw delicious cadbury cream eggs at the store today and resisted, though i was tempted, believe me!

Anyhow I've decided not to weigh myself, at least till i notice a difference. If I lose a little, i think i can reward myself with treats, and if i've gained i get discouraged and make myself feel better with treats. so no weighing for now.

:D
 
Oh God, the cream eggs... *drool* can't go into a single store without seeing their giant cadbury display. And I love them sooo much. I'm glad you've been strong against them, and surprised I have been too thus far. Keep it up!
 
you know what!! i like buying new clothes better too!!! i absolutely love your attitude!

so for brekky i had my usual special k....but i also had a cranberry muffin. it ws about medium sized and mmm warm....im gonna guess about 350cals?? what do u guys think?
 
and....i ate the stupid cream egg. surprisingly only 180 cals though, not as bad as i thought. and one lindor white chocolate. ill guess 75. and now im having a tuna sandwich, minus the cheese (in a sad attempt to compensate for the chocolate.) i guess it could have been tons worse.
 
k 3 more lindor balls. 280 cals total for those. k im done. seriously. i bought them for other people and i've wrapped them up in their little decorative bags. DONE.
 
so yesterday surprisingly didn't turn out to be a complete loss after all....after the lindor chocolates I had half of a cookie at work (someone made it specially for me, i had to) w hich im gonna guess is 250 cals....and that was it for the night.

calorie total = 1520.

and i generally just had a not so good day at work yesterday.....sometimes the people there really get to me...for example I came in and there were flowers wrapped up near my desk. They weren't ON my desk but closer to mine than anyone elses. My boyfriend works at the same place I do so I thought MAYBE they were for me, but there wasn't a card. I carefully undid ONE staple to see if there was a card inside. Nothing. So I just kinda placed them down behind my desk till I somehow found out who they were for/from. Anyway this guy that sits near me was like 'you just opened somebody else's flowers and put them on your desk, claiming them for yourself' and he kept going ON...i was trying to be quiet about even looking for a card, i wasn't assuming they were for me - they were almost on my desk! and he kept going on and then this other guy that sits near me came over and was like, 'they're for my wife, you didn't open them did you?'....like....why did he PUT them there? its VALENTINES day....sigh.....

anyway....just made me feel like ass thats all...but i didn't eat bad stuff to make myself feel better, so i guess there's an improvement. Gotta get ready for the gym.
 
February 16th food

Breakfast: special k = 110
nonfat milk = 90

Lunch: 2 pieces of toast = 150
butter = 50
3 pieces bacon = 150
2 scrambled eggs = 140
nonfat milk = 90
about 600 cals worth of chocolates..... :( so its 2:00 and im already at 1380 cals and i wanna keep it under 1500....looks like im having a light dinner tonight!! and im gonna hit the gym too so....ya. im throwing the rest of the chocolates out after i finish posting this. i feel sick to my tum for eating them ( they were a valentines day gift) but man....i cant resist them so i need to get rid of them.
 
i went to the gym and burned about 500 cals...feeling pretty decent....i just ate a carrot muffin = 250
engilish muffin = 130
shredded turkey breast = 60

bringing my daily intake to: holy smokes 1800. I guess I COULD look at it as net 1300 but man....thats a lot of calories. i HAVE to keep it under 1500. I might try to restrict to 1200 actually...i think mentally when i tell myself i have 1500 i allow myself to eat junk and that gets the ball rolling to eat more and more.....we'll see how things go.

Well.....

after a hiatus I'm going to start fresh tomorrow. I weighed myself yesterday and I was at my highest weight in a reeeeeeeally long time. I can do this. I h ave to lose this weight, I'm so close to being where I want to be, I've felt stuck here my entire life. I want to enjoy my clothes, go swimming and wear skirts and shorts and feel comfortable. I'm going to do this.

1200 calories a day
40 mins cardio 4x per week.

i HAVE to do this and i HAVE to take it day by day. I just HAVE to fight the cravings and make sure a substitute is available. I will definitely, 100% sure make it through tomorrow.

sigh.....
 
Alright Jakey, getting back on track! That's always great to see. I know what you mean about feeling comfortable swimming. I refuse to take off my shirt (since I'm a guy...).

Doing cardio three times a week keeps a person steady. Not going up or down in weight. Four times a week is when you start losing weight. Five - six times a week is even better! :D So your four days of cardio plan is great but if you have time on other days try for some more. Even if it's not 40 minutes. Maybe just 10 or 15 you're still doing something. :D

Drink lots of water and good luck!
