Wowsers...its been a while since ive been in here to blog, but I feel its about time to chat with myself.Im almost 7 months out and Ive lost about 110 lbs. My goal to be personally "sucessful" was to lose 100lbs or to be a size 14, which was as small as I can remember ever being happy with. Well, Ive surpassed both and Im happy...I think.
However, now I am at the gym constantly. Not that that's bad, but now I am sad to see the scale creeping up. Now I know from what I eat and track on thedailyplate.com that I am either negative calories or under 200 net calories a day so there is no way for me to be actually gaining weight, I must be gaining muscle. But its still so discouraging to me since I said I wanted to never be over 200lbs again, and im getting there :( I spend 45-60 mins on cardio and 20-30 mins on weights 5 days a week at the gym. Usually burning about 650-800 calories each time. I also am alot more concious of what im putting in my mouth. I know that since I just went and worked my butt off to burn 600 cals the last thing I feel like doing is eating a cheeseburger from Burger King, or coming home and eating some cheetos. As much as I'd love too :) I spent the first 6 months post of enjoying that I could eat almost anything besides sugar and still dropping lbs like no tomorrow. Now I am not losing lbs, but I must be losing inches cause im into smaller pants again, but no lbs are dropping. Oh well, I know that I havent "failed" per se but I feel like ive started late on my healthy life and I may have missed the peak of my weight loss.I can eat an entire orange and im still hungry within 10 mins...oh well, I guess I should be happy that ive realized it now and that I can still get back on track and have made better food choices and fitness goals now than before its too late.
Wish me luck!!
