| Such a weird butt... It's like I have a rainbow of fat around it while it disappears, creating this concave look. |
Weigh in: 323lbs (-8) My butt is disappearing and my legs are getting smaller. I think this is in part due to period being over (water retention) and a lot in part to the new work out.
Waist: 50" (+.5)
Work out: 4/7. 3 with Sarah. I'm not hurting as bad, though there are days. I had non-functioning hamstrings for 3 days this week.
Food: 7/7 under 1900. I kept to my plans. When I went off my predesigned menu, I ate things from other days on the menu (except for BK). Worst eat of the week: Burger King double cheeseburger plain at a whopping 440 calories. {insert excuse} Fact is, I ate it. Other fact is, I ate it and I was still hungry. 440 calories should be enough to fill a person up if you're eating real food.
Water: 6/7 over 100oz. Yesterday I was home all day and just kinda didn't use my water bottle.
Book: Honestly, haven't touched it since last week. I'll get back on that.
Partner: Melissa- She's doing great. Staying active. Joined Curves. Eating at home. She's the next Betty when it comes to logging food every day on MFP.
Support: At least three, if not more.

Good update, Nanette. I'm glad things are going well for you. I hope to have a better week myself this week. I need to get some exercise. You seem to be doing well with that. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is why I gave up Taco Bell, BK, McD's, Dominoes, etc, in 2010. They did not fill me up, and their foods aren't designed to do so. They're designed to make you want to eat more and spend more $$$. And come back again and again to spend $$$ and eat unnourishing, body-damaging food. Give them up. Eat real food. If you have to go for an emergency meal, hit Wendy's for chili and a potato or a salad with chicken, and skip the croutons. Wheat makes for hunger.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on meeting caloric and other goals. And your butt...that was my butt. Those were my upper arms. I guess when you get to my size, you'll have kinda my butt and arms. Sorry about that. I don't have a great butt or great upper arms..and the saggy skin is horrid. But..you'll feel better and clothes will fit hella better.
On we go...
Or Chipotle...you can get the protein on a salad with some heart-healthy fat in the guacamole. The salsa is nice. And I get the fajita veggies to up the vegetable count. THey have beans if you want fiber. That's pretty much the only fast food place I go to now and then....
ReplyDeleteElevation burger-you can get a burger in a lettuce wrap...it's grass-fed beef. You can get a veggie burger (but one has soy and the other has wheat, so not a perfect choice). I tried the soy one: eh.
Love your quote!!! And its the only way to be successful long term, commiting to yourself!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you lost 8 big, fat, freaking pounds!!!!! You have to feel good! When I get good results it motivates me to keep going and to say no to the bad food choices. I agree with Mir. Leave the fast food alone. It is crap food and will do NOTHING for you other than make you fat, sick, and tired. My only go to when I need to eat fast-food is Chick-fil-A. I get the spicy chicken cool wrap with light Italian dressing. It does have 410 calories but it fills you up and it has lettuce, tomato, cheese, chicken, and a whole grain wrap in it.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work!
This sounds like a great entry. You're doing awesome. Don't you love when you can see progress in pictures. Keep going lady!
ReplyDeleteMost awesome update. You are doing great. Keep that up. Take care and have another wonderful week. Blessings!!
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great, Nanette. How did you manage to loose sooo much in ONE week? It has payed off, that you did so much hard exercise this last week. GREAT! Keep up the good work! You will shrink rapidly!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great update! Your BK comment made me smile. I am the same way about fast food. I love it, but it doesn't satisfy me. On the other hand, it usually makes me sick. I guess that's why fast food is not "real" food. Whatever your secret is, just keep doing (or not doing) it. You're making great progress!
ReplyDeleteI love your quote, Nan. Commitment is that giant leap you have to take in order to see change!
