Why is it, my buddies, that I can work and work and work all week, and drop 1-5 pounds and then I go up north to the cottage for TWO days and when I come back I gained all that weight back? It not fair how 2 days, one day, or even one meal of not-so-healthy food can put you right back where you started..if not making you worse off?

Any ways I just thought that I would post my little thought.  I hope all of you the best today, tomorrow, and for the rest of the week!! Good luck to everyone and congrats in advance for sticking to your diet/excersize routine, for your determinated and for your hard work! Your all one step closer to your goals!!! Keep up the good work buddies.

I luv you alll!!!!!!!!!!!

hi there buddies…its been a while! i had a really stressful week last week.  im feeling a bit better this week though. last week was so brutal…my bosses and coworker (yes, 2 bosses, 1 coworker) are all on vacation right now, so i am managing the entire safety and labour control department by myself.  most people would be greatful for no bosses, and im sure i would be too..if i worked here full time! im only a summer student, and ive only been here a couple months.  so last week i was being taught how to do everything they do (the work of 3 people), so now i have to do their work, plus mine! anyways my boyfriend made me feel better by buying me the wii fit!!!!! which is like the funnest game ever!!!! i was having a blast playing it and i highly recomend it!!!! i dont even feel like im working out. it feels like playing a video game cause i have to unlock other excersizes!!! its so much more fun then the gym or the treadmill!!!!!!

so anyways im rambling…i just wanted to let you guys know im back and im even more ready to help motivate my buddies.

so to everyone reading this: keep up the good work!! your all doing great!!

love,kelly

Thanks you all so much for your support and suggestions.  You all brought tears to my eyes when I read all your comments.  I really want to try the things that you have all said.  I want to work on my mindset.  Thank you all for being great people and great buddies! I want all of you to know that you are some of the nicest, most supportive people I have ever met!

I just can’t diet.  I don’t know what is wrong with me.  I don’t even really crave the food that badly until I see it.  It’s not like I sit there and watch T.V and think about popcorn…I just go in the cupboard to get something and I see the popcorn and then I decide I want it.  I feel like such a failure.  I just can’t diet at all..I tried not eating any junk, but I can’t do that.  I don’t even know how to really count calories.  I feel so stressed and upset with myself.  Does anyone have any ideas how to diet properly? or how I can curb my cravings.  So many people on this website have lost like 20, 30, even 50 pounds.  I can’t even loose enough to get to my mini goal.  I want to know how you guys have managed to do so well.  I’ve never felt so hopeless at anything in my life.  I hope you all can take the time out of your days to help me.  I am so happy I found this site because I know that you all will give me suggestions.

Thanks, Kelly

Hii Buddies! I know I already blogged today but I’m really proud of myself and I wanted to tell someone who would care!  I went grocery shopping on my lunch for the cottage.  I bought all healthy food! No chips, only fruits and veggies. Water. And I’m trying chicken burgers!! I can’t wait to go swimming in the lake.  I will admit that I will probably drink though.  But not nearly as much: no beer, just maybe a cosmopoliatn or 2. And for lunch I had cucumber sushi in brown rice and a small salad with no salt on it!! ( I am a salt addict)

I just want to take a minute to write down my goals so I have a record of them:

1. No more salt

2. No more pop

3. Exersize every day, even if it is just a 10 minute video

4. Don’t count calories, but don’t have any junk food!

5. Drink water!

6. find some extra money to buy wii fit

Thanks for reading buddies

This past week has been a really hard one for me.  I have been in a constant battle with my boyfriends mother over where my boyfriend should work…She says where the money is, I say wherever he is happy! But I thought about it and I guess it is his choice ultimately.  I just don’t want him to hate his job and be unhappy.  But its Friday, and that means the week is almost over.  I ate horribly this week but its behind me now.  This is my time, and I know this time that I will control my emotional eating.  I will eat healthy and excersize.  I will drink my water.  This time I know I can do it.  I really want to loose the weight, but sometimes something comes up that makes me feel really upset and takes precedent over my weight loss.  But not this time.  From now on I will try and avoid things that upset me, and I will make my weight loss my number one priority.  Thanks to all my buddies for the support that you have been giving me!

I had a very depressing night last night.  I got into a huge fight with my boyfriend’s mom and it wasn’t even my fault.  She said I was wasting my life by going back to school after I finish the program I’m in Law and security now, but I realized that I don’t really like the jobs that are available when I get out of school.. I thought it through and I have other programs in mind.  I was really offended when she said that because my whole family are all strong believers in going to school to find my perfect career.  And then I had cake and popcorn.  Even today as a write this and I still feel like shit I ate a cinnamon bun.   And now I feel even worse because I’m eating so badly.  I don’t think I’ve ever really felt this sad.  My boyfriend wants to do a job that I know he is above.  He needs to be in a job where he can get promoted.  Plus I hate my job (I am only a summer student though so I have to live with it) and my coworker.  My friends kinda screwed me over and I feel like I really have no one around me to hang out with.  Anyways I’m just venting and being depressed and having a super hard time dieting.  I actually like working out.  I feel like it gives me a release.  But I ALWAYS turn to food when I feel bad.  So now I’ve pigged out and I feel even worse.  I’m sorry if I sound kinda crazy and I’m rambling on but I just feel like shit and I’m letting all my buddies know about it.  Somehow I know you sistas and mistas will all work together and make me feel a little bit better.

love kz. 

Hiiii Buddies :> Well, this was a baaaaaaddd weekend for dieting.  Friday was my 19th birthday (which makes me legal drinking age where I live), which meant I spent the whole weekend partying.  But whatever..no regrets..it was a great weekend, I just can’t do it again.  I wore a skirt on my birthday but I had to change early on in the day because it was hott and my legs were rubbing together too much :(, which made mee feel really bad.  I decided I really want to work off the weight on my legs. Do you guys have any suggestions for excersizes that will really help me loose a lot off my legs? Thanks..Love you guys kz<3

I thought I was doing so well yesterday.  I ate so well all day and then I went out for a jog.  I was feeling pretty proud of myself, so I rewarded myself with one of those trashy celebrity magazines.  One of the articles in the magazine was about celebrity work outs.  It said that all the featured celebrities did cardio excersizes for 45-90 minutes. I felt so bad.  I struggled to jog for 15 minutes! I felt like I wasn’t doing enough to loose weight. How long should I aim for when I’m jogging? I feel so frustrated.  And then after I started feeling kinda crappy about myself, and I ate so much junk food.  I had cookies, icecream, and M&Ms.  Then I felt even worse becuase I have no selff control, and I clearly can’t workout long enough to work off the calories I’m taking in.  So now my questions for you is how long should I be trying to work out for? Any suggestions on fun places to run, or other fun excersizes? Any help would be appreciated.  I’m so happy I found this site cause I feel like I just know you guys will all pitch in and help me feel better! <3

Hi everyone! I have been visiting this site for a couple days now, just reading all the inspirational stuff you guys are saying to each other.   I thought it was great and I finally decided to join.  I really want to loose weight.  I want to go back to the weight I was before I met my boyfriend.  My boyfriend eats so much junkfood. Every night he has a chocolate bar after dinner, when he comes in from school he eats chips or cookies (or both), and for dinner he likes pizza or mcdonalds or fried chicken.  He won’t even eat any vegetables!  So after being with him for two years, I gained 0ver 40 pounds, and now I’ve had enough.  I really want to try and break these habbits and learn to eat better, but its very very hard.  Anyways, everyone one is sharing their inspirational stories and I just wanted to share mine.
