exactly... i think there should be a better screening process when it comes to this stuff... i saw one show where there was this tiny girl who used to be heavier then she sort of developed an eating disorder and she would carry her scale around with her everywhere to work and everything. she was going for lipo in the very few places it sort of looked like she had cellulite and all that happens is the doctor asks if shes ever been diagnosed with any eating disorders or anything like that and she says no not that i know of... and he's just like okay lets do this... and after shes talking to camera and says well i've never been to a doctor about an eating disorder so i havent been dignosed with one...
They seriously need to do some phsycolagical screening these people before they start hacking themselves up and get them some mental help instead...

Yeah no kidding!!! I can't believe what some plastic surgeons allow these people to do to themselves!

You ladies are so lucky you actually HAVE boobs!!! I just recently found ADULT bras at V's Secret that fit me! You know, it's really nice being able to wear one that doesn't have Hello KItty or the days of the week on it. LOL!

Let's hear it for A-cups!!

I'd kill to have cleavage. I literally stopped developing at age 13. I think this is due to the fact that my body doesn't produce enough estrogen, never has. I've been on hormone therapy since puberty! They got a little bigger during the pregnancy due to the increase in natrual estrogen but my levels plummeted a week after birth and they shrunk back down. They're perky though!

You know, hormones can be a real bitch.

UGH that sucks...Perky is good though, Min have gotten alot perkier over the years form exercise:)That has made me happy.

Hormone ARE a bitch... but theres an upside to smaller boobies... its hard to keep a pair of DD's Or E's perky... there arnt too many saggy A's and B's...

Yaa...Usually im a D but this time Im up to a DD i remeber being mortified by that, LOL, Im like im a DD:(

But im with ya there on the perkiness...DD sag more than perk:iagree:


AmyRB said:
Yeah, you're right. And they don't bounce when you run. That looks so painful for women who have larger ta ta's. Mine are completely flat in a sports bra. My h promised I can get a boob job when I am ready. If I did, I'd only want a B-cup. I don't know what I'd do with anything bigger. Probably would play with them a lot at first...

YA HAHAHA, I run once a week for bootcmap and I need to hold my boobs and that is with two bras one, I wear a regular bra and then a sports bra over top the regular one, my friedn came up with that an it works well but not for me and running

hmm as i was stripping down to take a shower this afternoon decided to hop on the scale.... what did i see????... 195! Say what? yes 195... after losing consistantly 1 pound a week im looking at a 2 lb loss and were only half way through the week... i had decided not to change my ticker when i saw 196 because i didnt believe it... i figure my lack of water consumption has lead to it... im still suspicious of this 195 so i refuse to change my ticker until i have a few consistant days of drinking more then a bottle a day lol... sure did feel good to see the number anyway...
 
Motherof2.. awesome on the 2 lbs loss!! and i know what you mean I never really believe the scale until its been about a week.. lol
 
Eeeek, so I had a lil mini binge yesterday and lost my points! I only put on 1 lb so I'm not too upset lol. Unlike my prior calories based plan where I could make up my bad days later in the week by eating lower the last few days..but that really got me no where as I still have not gotten below my starting weight LOL. Yeah, funny in a morbid sense.. Anyway, on this plan I'm only supposed to have 3 meals a day and a healthy small snack only if I'm starving, but I just started munching out a few hours after lunch. A few of the baby's cookies here, a little of this and that, a few bites of ice cream, a bunch of meat loaf but no sides so at least that minimized the carbs and cut down on the weight gain. Touche..
 
OK, well yesterday I didn't do so well either. I had large meals and then a snack at one point so I dont get my points for Saturday either. I did get in 30 minutes of elliptical but that was such a struggle, I was feeling so lazy.

Today, Sunday, I am doing a lot better and feeling much more committed. Time to work it up for our last days of the challenge. I already got in 1 hour on the elliptical before 9am. WOOT WOOT (I even said that at the end as my daughter asked me why I'm up there on the machine). I plan on sticking to my meal plan and minimizing my portions, which have been quite large this weekend.

Let's get it in gear team!
 
that sucks you were having some trouble stivking to your plans but what counts is you keep picking yourself and pushing on the next day which we all know is what really counts :D
Way to push yourself when you were feeling lazy! :hurray: It's great that you can distinguish being tired vs being lazy AND being able to force yourself to work out when you realize it
 
I just edited column "F" in the spreadsheet to add in week 5 points. You should notice a big bump in your cumulative points. Sorry, I must have been asleep at the wheel last week when I added in week 5 (forgot to update the cumulative formula to include week 5). Anywho, we are all good to go now!!
 
Don't worry about it Cita, you'll do better today.

Well my calories have been on target this past week bit I have to make up 2 hours of exercise by tuesday. This past week was a little hectic since I was spending all my free time studying for three tests I have tomorrow. I still have tons of studying to do but I plan on breaking long enough to get the workouts in today. I may take Bella to the gym with me since Sean is in OH visiting my SS.

I've been so busy that it has been hard to keep my motivation up. I used to have a set schedule but since I quit my job and went back to school, I can't seem to get used to the new schedule. Less than 4 hours of exercise is not me at all and I am ashamed that I have been so lax lately with it all. I need to put my exercises toward the top of my priority list again so I'm not "catching up" each week. I have been WAY MORE active since quitting my desk job and was hoping I'd see results on the scale because of this. NOPE! I walk everywhere now and am always running with Bella at the park or local Jump Zone.

My doc still hasn't returned my call about the thyroid tests and I'm getting really pissed off. I had to go off the meds cold turkey almost three weeks ago and I have felt like shit since. I can't sleep, my energy levels have changed, I can't concentrate. Grrrr!
 
WOW yesterday was crazy. I am in pep band, because I'm that awesome. Anyhow, it was the cat/griz double header for basketball (cat (montana state university - my school) vs griz (university of montana - rivalry school) so that was insanity. We danced around in pink tights because my section is amazing and they all agreed to do it! Then I went to a hockey game last night and just had a good time. Three games in a day, craziness!

Best part is: I got a lot of movement in, no exercise hours gonna be counted because it's just stuff I do, but we danced and played for quite a few hours...good times. AND I stayed within my calories as well. All in all, a good Saturday, plus I feel soooo much better today, I think I'm over my flu.
 
Well gals and guy....

Im not doing well, Im doing a bit better after sleepin 12 hrs and havin a nap and stuffin my face all day/...LOL

BUT

I only have 2 hrs of exercise logged which means I need to get 2 hrs done tomorrow and I dont think that will be happening.

I didnt think I had any worries due to my sun run clinic this am but I skipped it to sleep as it is early in the am...

I might hop onto the fit board for a bit here but am unsure and i am not pushing myself to exercise feelin how I do


Im sorry...I feel like a failure:(I hate my body!!!

Oh and i tried loggin my points but couldnt for some reason.

Wow, I'm having a hard time keeping up with posting this week. I'm on the Midnight shift, so I'm expecting a bump up in the weight department. It happens that way every time. Also, last night I called in sick to go to a party instead. I pigged out on some amazing food and I wouldn't have traded it for 1000 points. Let's just say that quail wrapped in bacon is sooooo goooood. :drool5:

Today we went out to the light house and hiked around on the beach and rocks for about 2 hours. Great day for it. I think it got into the 50's and sunny. Then when we got home I went for a 7.5 mile run. So I'm on it with exercise, for the most part. I'll still hit the gym tomorrow for a good lift.

Hey no being negative!! You're still doing great... and your sick for goodness sake! Take the time to rest and get back on top of things when you're all better. I promise none of us will be disappointed in you Relly!

Cheer up and remember you're a beautiful strong woman who is making changes!! And stay positive!!!:smash:
 
Quick update here....

Ran 4 miles in 57 flat yesterday... felt awesome. Walked 3.3 miles today with my client (who happens to be my Mom :)), we are prepping for a 5k race next weekend.

Saw 136.0 on the scale this morning. I should see 135 by weigh in next week and hopefully be down at least another pound by the final. I've decided that I have at least another 15 or so pounds to lose.... at least.

Dee! 4 miles is great! What's the running plan now for this week?
Click to expand...

Well I'm doing a 12 week halfer training program, but it ups the mileage a little too fast for me.. so I turned it into a 24 week program doing each week twice. I'm in week 4 meaning a second round of week 2... if that makes any sense...

All in all it adds up to.

2 mile tempo run Tuesday
3 mile tempo run Thursday
4 mile long run Satruday
EZ 2.5 miles Sunday


However there the fam is doing a 5k walk/run Saturday so I might push my long run to Sunday.
 
Relly don't be so hard on yourself!! Remember you have to get better first before you can think about anything else!! I bet you'll be back on top of things then!! Hang in there girl everything will work out in it's own little way!!
 
Hi guys! Feeling loads better today like I mentioned. Just got back from the gymmmm

35 mins bike
20 mins weights
30 mins elliptical (I added on 5 more minutes at the end to keep me moving for a cool down instead of just going really fast and hopping off like I've been doing :( bad me, bad me.)

Food in the good for todayyyyy.
