So since Ive been a member of this site Ive had the same boring peach background profile. Ive been trying to change it for years on multiple computers (so I know its not my computer/cookies etc) and no matter what changes I make it does not change! I hit refresh a million times. There is no contact email on this site at all for me to ask questions etc.

Is anyone else having this problem????

Hey there!

It has been a while! Ive still been sticking to the Shes Fit plan however not the last week! I payed a visit to my hometown, Montreal - hence LOTS of going out, partying and good food! I gave myself a little break. I basically started the plan end of Sept and lost 10 lbs so far. Its not as much as it should be because the past month I think I went to the gym twice? Ive been really busy working a LOT of overtime and volunteering. I am going to push myself a little harder now as I want to lose at least another 10 lbs.

I must say though, for the first time in my life (and I blame Shes Fit) Im not as “obsessed” with my weight. I hardly weigh myself anymore and frankly, dont really care about the number. I just want to feel good. And ever since I started the plan (eating 5 meals every 3 hours/day) I feel SO much better. I can eat whatever I want and the meals are so good! I also am more confident in my looks - or rather comfortable. Big is nice! Healthy is better! So if Im still BIG being healthy makes it so much more fun.

The only complaint I have is the website is very buggy and I dont like WRITING everything down - I prefer to do everything on the computer which is what they have but a lot of the time it does not calculate my meal intakes correctly - I have to do it myself. I hardly need the site anymore anyways Ive been doing it for so long I generally know how much Im supposed to be eating. But when I complained to the site programmers all they said was “thats why its better to write it down”. Well why should I write it down when I have the option to have the website do it for me? I was a little pissed.

My main problem now is active lifestyle - I am hardly active as I used to be. Okay, I walk to the train almost every day (15-20 min walk) and I volunteer at the wildlife association (4 hours a week of extreme activity) but its not enough as I have been maintaining my weight for the last month.

I need a solid 3 times a week of weights(for about 30 min), and 4 times a week of cardio (for about an hour) for any results. SO Im going to try to start that this week.

Today: Cardio 1 hour
Monday: Cardio 30 min, Weights, 30 min
Tuesday: rest
Wednesday: Cardio 60 min, weights 30 min
Thursday: Volunteering(4 hours of cardio/weights practically)
Friday: Cardio 30 min, weights, 30 min
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Billy Blanks tae boa

I NEED to push myself to do this.

Ill even use this list as my desktop on my computer lol

Im going to do some blog reading now as its been so long since Ive been on here!

Hey! So happy.  First weigh in I was a gross 208, and I came in at 202 today. So far so good. 24 more lbs to go! I did not lose any inches though but thats because I hardly had time to work out this past week due to working tons of over time.

The 5 healthy meal a day thing works much better than I thought it would. Never felt so healthy!

Tonight going to have chips as a reward!

Yay!

So I got my healthy transformations book by Shes Fit! and Im super excited to start. The meals look huge and delicious. Things I dont normally eat. I hope I can pull off making different meals a day with my crazy schedule. They go by the 5 meal a day plan. Theyre giving me about 1900 cals to eat per day which is very realistic for my lifestyle. I hope this is going to work.

I would like to reach my goal of maintaining about 174 by the time Im 30. I want to continue eating this way so that I am full of healthy carbs/cals not the empty stuff.

My bf is taking me to ihop for breakfast today, I am just gonna enjoy my day and chill.

Yesterday was my first She’s Fit! assessment before I start their “Healthy Transformations” program. Wow the results werent as terrible as I thought but my fat percentage is super high!!!

My measurements are 44″ hips, 34″ waist, 26″ bust, 16″ thighs. My body fat percentage is 33%!!!!!!!! I was expecting it to be more actually but still its quite high.

For my height it should be around 24-28 % which is what I was before I gained these measly 30 lbs.

SO I felt really good, like I was starting something new. We made a list of all the foods I love. Luckily Im not a fast food nut so we didnt have many to write. I am to receive my book (book consists of my daily meal plan, food journal, log , recipes etc) in about a week and we set the day to start to be Ausgust 1st. My goal is to reach my healthy weight by the time Im 30. It gives me a full year which is more than enough.

I also really need to hit the gym as much as I do as well as bike and play sports on the outside. My bike is all screwed up, and desperately want to get a road bike so I can bike with my bf! My bike now is so big and old it doesnt take me far…:(

I feel really good about this. I need professional help and I am glad I ignored my little ego and admitted that.

Im so excited. Today I am going to join the gym She’s Fit! and also sign up for the “Healthy Transformations” plan. Since I have been writing what I am eating down I came to realize I am not eating enough!!!!!! I have been eating this way for years hence probably why the terrible plateau. My body was able to lose weight at a moderate level for a long time but now its not enough anymore. So I definitely need help.

Wish me luck!

Well I wrote down everything I ate yesterday and WOW it makes a huge difference!!!! I ate a total of 2059 Cals which according to my doc I should have around 2054 due to my active lifestyle. I work out around 40 min 5 times a week. According to this calorie intake and my work out schedule I SHOULD be losing roughly 1 to 2 lbs per week. Which is my main goal. Id like to lose the 30 lbs by Nov.

If this doesnt work I might consider getting my thyroid checked out. There is no history in my family of having thyroid probs but just in case. I dont want to work this hard to realize I might have some physically wrong and need meds. I REALLY HOPE NOT. It was actually something a friend mentioned last night.

I was so desperate I was even considering to go with Weight Watchers my ultimate boycott!! No offense to those who love it, and I think thats great! I just dont feel its worth it. But who knows maybe I might turn to it soon enough.

I also went to an OA meeting yesterday. (Over-eaters Anonymous). I am a compulsive over-eater, and obsessive with my weight (obviously if you havent noticed from my blogs) so I thought it might help. It did not AT ALL. All they talked about was how a higher power helped them recover. Thats not inspiring? I want to be the one to help me recover. I am not religious - I dont like depending on a “higher power”. Thats just my opinion and I expressed that. I am just tired of talking about my obsession with my family and friends - I talk about it way too much and am probably driving everyone nuts. I know I am driving my bf nuts. He even thinks writing everything down is going to provoke my obsession. I have to lose this weight and have been staying at a plateau (if not going up a few!) for a year now. I need to do something different. When I tell him he doesnt understand he just gets really upset with me. If anything knowing I have eaten enough for the day (and I actually didnt feel hungry at the end of the day!) I can relax more. Maybe he will see that eventually.

I want to be NORMAL…just do my thing, eat right, be healthy, LIVE and not let food take over.

So I know I just blogged a few hours ago, but I decided I am officially going to start a food journal, write down everything I eat and write the cals/fat.

This way I will know what I am doing wrong and can fix a few things. I am going to lose 30 lbs in 6-7 months…want to be fit and healthIER by the time Im 30.

Wish me luck!

So I weighed myself this morning and it said 207! I am extremely bloated and I dont know why. I need a wake up call. I have to get back to reality and figure out whats wrong with me.

I have been working out for 40 min everyday (5-6 times a week) doing different exercises, eating my 3 meals a day with lots of veggies/fruits, I snack a little at night but nothing too serious, and I cut down on the pigging out on the weekends.

I dont understand why the pounds wont go down and are going UP instead?? I know 207 is not my real weight, but still. I looked at some old pics of myself and really got depressed. I am angry with myself for letting myself go yet again. I really need to figure something out. I am contemplating paying someone to help me out but I am so broke.

Please help.

Hey everyone!

Here is a little update: I am still the same weight (LOLOL!) but I have been working out EVERYDAY at the gym for about 90 min doing different things, also have been doing some kickboxing/yoga. My eating habits are still really good - I had chips for the first time in a month last Friday so the next time will be in another month. This is my PMS week so I am a little bloated and weigh a little more than normal but thats normal. Feeling super good. I am maintaining but I feel so energetic more than when I was 25 lbs lighter. SO weird.

Anyway I am gonna keep trying to lose check the numbers on and off but am trying reeeeallly hard not to obsess and just enjoy life.

I hope everyone else is doing well!! Will do some blog reading now.
