doing ok so far today, I can do it! I will not have a bad afternoon eating wise, and my goal is to walk

joasia

202.8
going to try to go back down to 199
haven't been walking. I need to eat healthier for health reasons, it is a work in progress

joasia

I haven't seen 199 in years. I still have 50 pounds to go. My BMI still says that I am in the obese category. But, I don't weigh 268.5 pounds anymore. I can walk 4 or 5 miles without my legs cramping up and shin splints every few minutes and having to sit down. I can stand for longer periods of time...

joasia

200.8, then later this morning 200, then 199.4

I saw it. If only for a second, I saw it. Maybe it was a mirage, but I saw it, and I almost cried

joasia

B = smoothie: broccoli, kale, celery, 1 cup blueberries, 1oz nuts

L = 5 prunes, one slice of toast, 2 oz. avocado

D = one orange, 1 cup lentil and vegetable soup, one slice toast, one hard boiled egg, I think that is it

no alcohol

joasia

i have been eating whole foods, or trying to. less meat and cheese and more healthy fats like nuts and avocado. I do well until dinner time - then i get cravings for junk B = nutribullet smoothie kale, broccoli, 1 cup blueberries, celery 1 oz. nuts, one orange L = one slice of toast with avocado, ho...

joasia

no walk

joasia

201.4

walked 4 miles, ate well all day, except at dinner, but still moving in the right direction, i want to not weigh myself for a week, but I don't know if I can go that long

yes, I have been drinking a lot of water.

joasia

I don't know how much of it is hunger and how much of it is I want to eat because it tastes good and it is comforting. Today I walked and have been eating clean. I am trying to aim for eating whole foods instead of processed. But it is a challenge. When i am stressed and hungry, I want to reach for ...

joasia

201.8 Am I happy with this number? Totally. But...............here is what the problem is. I am going to be very honest. I believe one of the goals of no s is to achieve sanity with food and eating in general. I have not been very sane with my eating. I have not really been nosing. I have been eatin...

joasia

203

no walk
ate very little

joasia

thank you automate, you are always so sweet - I feel like I have to eat very little to see any difference in weight, just frustrating

joasia

204.6

don't even know why I keep posting here, I am beyond frustrated

joasia

I have looked at your height and weight and it seems that you are already at goal! When anybody looks at you, they probably wouldn't think you need to lose anymore! Don't beat yourself up over an extra 5 or 10 pounds. I would give anything in the world to be 5 or 10 pounds from goal. Enjoy where you...

joasia

203

no walk, didn't eat a lot, but not healthy stuff either

joasia

joasia

Oh and I forgot, I had a little thai food at parents house yesterday, bowl of noodle soup and a few spoons of fried rice and noodles and shrimp

202.4, 201.2 ok enough of that now

joasia

201.6 Now before I get excited, I think it is just a fluke because yesterday was a regular day B = one plate tortilla chips, guacamole, cheese dip, salsa, didn't finish plate L = 1/2 a philly cheese steak sandwich, snacked a little on the steak and cheese while making the sandwich, just a little S =...

joasia

joasia

I can do this even if it's hard

joasia

joasia

205.6

joasia

207 walked 4 miles I think I am going to have to go back to counting points. I am stuck at this weight walking 4 miles and I don't feel like I am overeating. I still have 50 pounds to lose and nothing is happening. I have been stuck for months now. I hate weighing and measuring food, but I know it i...

joasia

206.2

not bad after all that food

joasia

205 point something

no walk

christmas food

joasia

I like the plan of "try not to eat everything in sight" that is my plan too. Holiday food is very rich so i think one plate plus dessert will be very filling

joasia

206.6

REALLY really trying not to be frustrated with the fact that number and that it is not moving. 5 mile walk yesterday.

ANYWAY

yes I grew up in Redlands. Really like this town. Love San Diego too.

joasia

I live in redlands. Which is on the way to big bear. Yes I've been to big bear

joasia

joasia

206.2

vacation is here time to start walking again

joasia

Even though my weight is a big issue for me, in terms of feeling like a woman and health and family pressures. I have many interests and talents, even though I am fat, based on what I feel and what others have told me I have a pretty face I have lovely hair I have pretty eyes I am educated I have be...

joasia

oolala - thank you so much. you are a wonderful writer and your words are such an inspiration. For the first time, I went into the urgent care for some medicine, and the dr. actually shocked me, I always start my dr. visit by apologizing for being fat and letting them know I am working toward goal, ...

joasia

206.2

vacation starts at the end of today, really going to focus on walking and getting healthy, and on myself

joasia

thank you everyone for the kind and encouraging words. I usually don't post personal stuff here, but it was really nice reading everyone's replies. It makes me feel really nice to have such awesome cyber friends at a difficult time

joasia

I need this inspiration right now, have been stuck at the same weight for months and it is very frustrating. I lost at first, but now feel stuck

joasia

herbsgirl, you lost a lot of weight in a short time, so it clearly does work

joasia

My only worry with this is how big is a bite? I know you aren't suppose to stuff your cheeks, but I am afraid that I would start obsessing about bite sizes. maybe because I have an obsessive nature

joasia

So true and well put jw. thank you so much

joasia

Thank you all, your words help me a lot right now.

joasia

207

sigh, sometimes I hate my life

joasia

thank you automatedeating for taking the time to ask

joasia

I'm a disappointment to her: I'm the only one in my family divorced, i'm overweight, no grandchildren, and she doesn't like the guy I'm dating. Well, I don't know if I like him right now, but that is a whole different topic. anyway, she feels that she invested her time staying at home raising me and...

joasia

thank you, that might help, I've been struggling with it a lot

joasia

thank you. it is just hard not talking to family this time of year

joasia

203.8 My mother feels that because I am younger than her, I should be able to be thin. Her thought is that she is older and that is why she is not thin. I have told her that I have lost 64 pounds, but it doesn't seem to matter. Because I am still overweight and not at goal weight. It is the curse of...

joasia

My mother doesn't talk to me because I am fat, and according to her I shouldn't be. Even though she is overweight as well. She hasn't talked to me for 3 1/2 months. It hurts, but maybe if I lose some more I weight she will.

joasia

maybe if I lose weight my mother will talk to me again

joasia

203.4

how I ate a ton yesterday and still lost weight? ah the mysteries of the scale. probably dehydration. still didn't walk =(

joasia

Ugh I ate breakfast, I ate lunch, then somebody tempted me with a plate of nachos, and I didn't say no. So it looks like I am done eating for the day. Nachos were my dinner plate. now I have to walk tonight. ugh, I hope I don't gain. Feeling like I need some good news, life has been just one challen...

walked 4 miles yesterday

3 pieces of oven bbq chicken, 2 1/2 biscuits, crackers and cheese, 1 1/2 ears of corn, potato salad, peppermint candy, baked beans, 3 tamales, was a little sick and threw up

joasia

206.6

joasia

B = 3 or 4 bites choc. cake, grilled cheese sandwich, small licorice, several bites of a vege burger with everything

L = none

D = tba

goal: walk

joasia

joasia

just remember, the reason you are losing slowly is because you are so close to goal. Weight comes off fast, when you have a lot to lose. As soon as you get close to where you want to be, it slows down. You are doing great, and 90 min of walking! that is awesome! I need to start walking, today is the...

joasia

joasia

your advice is very wise and sound. yes, I am very hard on myself, for many reasons. Right now I have health problems that are forcing me to make some big changes weight wise. I want to be moderate, but lately moderate has my weight standing in place, and I am worried, and exhausted, and demoralized...

joasia

Ugh, stood all day at work and walked 4 miles, and today my right knee hurts. Maybe I should skip the walk today. I don't want to, but I want my knee to feel better. Never had knee problems before, I think I overdid it yesterday. Sitting at work today, and will try to walk tonight.

joasia

you are right. I just really need it to start swinging the right way for once, I have had too many set backs and disappointments lately. B = 2 slices whole wheat toast, 1/2 avocado, one slice of american cheese, vegetable juice L = 2 cups homemade vegetable and lentil soup, one orange D = tba going ...
