As a part of my New Year's Resolution, I am participating in SparkPeople. I have a calorie intake limit of 1200-1500. To my surprise I am having a really hard time eating enough. I'm not sure if it's the medicine or just me trying to watch what I've been eating, but there have been a few days that I have been below my range. :( Also, I find it extremely hard to drink the 8 glasses of water a day. I like water alright, its just really hard for me to drink that much. I swear, I feel like I can hear it swooshing around in my stomach...yuck! My weigh in days are Thursday's and I'm hoping for at least 2 pounds, more would be nice, but 2 pounds will make me proud. At work, we are having the "biggest loser" contest (I am not participating). Everyone who is participating paid in $50, the contest will last for 3 months and the winner get 75% of the money and second place gets 25%. So, I'm not doing it alone at work...which makes it ten times easier. This morning I walk in and the first thing I get to hear about is how two of the teacher I interpret for lost 8 pounds since Wednesday..that's each...not combined! UGH!!! Yeah, they are bigger guys therefore they have more to lose, but it's still discouraging. :( Don't get me wrong...I'm happy for them...just sad for me. Oh..the reason why I'm not participating is well, the reason why I wanted to lose weight is to get pregnant. I really didn't want to put in $50 to hopefully lose. haha. I'm thinking what will probably happen to me is I will get to my goal weight and get pregnant, if I stick with the diet that long. haha
By the way--right now, at this very second...my husband is sitting beside me taunting me with a peanut butter cup milkshake. My biggest weakness...ice cream. My favorite milkshake...peanut butter. Horrible Hubby!!!
I know we were really young, but this is what I want to look like again. (Baker has ruined almost every single picture Nathan and I have together. haha)
I love my hair in this one! Umm...maybe a reward for losing weight or getting knocked up?? haha.
I hope everyone has a good evening!!

I took both of those! Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I love your hair in the second one. You looked beautiful! Not that you aren't now, of course!
Ok, it's water! I lost all my weight plus 10 lbs after I had Gage and I was addicted to drinking water...I'm sure that's what helped me! I drank 4-5 bottles of water a day!
ReplyDeleteGood luck...I'll be trying to drop pounds soon! Blech!
