So I have an idea. Maybe from now on, we keep everything the same but the details of the food. Instead of writing down everything we ate, we will just write if we ate anything bad that day. That way, we are still accountable and still have to fess up. I just think that writing all of it may be the reason we don't get around to the blog. We put it off bc we know it's going to be lengthy, and then the day is over and we didn't do it. Or maybe we were just lazy...
If you're okay with this, here's what I'm thinkin.. we can still put our weekly goals, whether or not we met them at the end o the week, daily workout details, and our general gripes and woes about the battle of the bulge. We'll just add the bad food thing. And how bad it was. If you want to just keep it the way it has been, I'm fine with that too. Just let me know!
Today, I worked out for the first time in ... too long. I think it was a week and a half. Today I did 50 mins on the treadmill and burned 450 cal. It felt great, but at the same time it made me feel like shit for not keeping it up. I weighed myself and I am at 151. That's not good, but in my defense, I just started my period, so maybe a couple of those pounds are due to that. If not, then it makes sense that I've only lost a pound or two-- I haven't worked hard enough fot it. Tomorrow I have to work at H&M (my once a week, every other week job) from 9-4 and I'm gonna work out sometime in the evening.
And Kate, I am so proud of you. I mean it. You have done such an amazing job and I can't believe your size 6 story. So great!!! But the "half your size" compliment was the best. Really. You should be so proud of yourself. This is something that a bazillion Americans can't overcome. There is a billion dollar industry of weight loss solutions (yeah, I just made that number up..), and YOU are doing it on your own. No Jenny, no meetings, no pills, no diets even!! Just eating better and exercising. And the best part for me is that you're really making me wish I was seeing results like you are. So, I'm just gonna have to get back in the state of mind that I was in the first week of this and stop eating chocolate and work out more.
Keep on kicking ass Kate!

You just made me choked up. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThat's fine if you don't want to write what you ate everyday. But if you do eat something bad that should go down. I might just keep writing what I'm eating cause it's been helping me realize that what and how much I'm eating (like realizing I wasn't getting any protein for a few days). Like some days I'll write all the food some days I won't. I definitely want to get back to posting every single day though I've totally been slacking.
