So close! So excited!!

This Week = -5.2 lbs 

Current Weight= 271.6 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 48.4lbs

1.6 lb. to go till I hit my lowest and my 50!

Weight Watchers-key rings... 

So, I had no idea people get a key ring for your %10 goal at WW....
I also had no idea there was a key charm for 25 lbs lost! The kay rings came up in the meeting today and I'd realized I hadn't gotten any of those things. Apparently there is another charm for 50 lbs lost, HOPEFULLY I'll be able to add another charm to this key ring next weekend!

..am I the only one who had no idea these existed?

Some pictures from this past week!

My parents went out to lunch one afternoon and decided to bring me back a salad and a  Gyro. The salad is under the Gyro in the picture, it filled up the other side of the takeout box.  This was my first Gyro, and it was really very good!

A recipe I wanted to try from the new 360 booklet! We went to the market, I wrote down what I needed...and never remembered to get the flour :P

YAY! WW Keyring (the keyring = %10 and the Charm= 25 lb. 

Activia has always kinda been my savior!

The Light FF has actually been pretty good :}

This week I tried these Skinny Cow Ice-cream sandwiches, they are  great and low in points.

I keep forgetting... water is my FRIEND! Even though I have to pee more often....
TMI?

ALL IN ALL, this past week was great, I feel like I'm finally totally back on track. I wasn't feeling %100 in the game. 

Hope everyone had a good week!

Good night!

Happy New Year!!! Update

The things people say suck sometimes, I remembered soemthing someone told me in elementary school...and I guess it kept me from wearing shorts till... now?
I just remember "nameless kid" saying something along the lines of "wow, you are that fat.." and of course he was looking at my knees/legs while saying this. Up till then I had never thought twice about my knees, but I guess they were fat enough to catch his attention?! Soooo that's all it really took for me to be mortified and totally embarrassed about my leggies for what feels like forever!
I'm still not comfortable walking abound outside in these shorts, i actually bought them becauseI don't own a swim suit anymore and have been doing water aerobics with some girls from WW.

The point of taking a picture of my legs was to maybe try and further getting over this "fear", and what better way then to take a picture of them and post them on the internet!

I'd like to thank Target for only having super "short" shorts. I needed shorts recently and found myself thinking about how comfortable (uncomfortable) I am/ have been in my own skin.

So now in 2013, shorts will be part of my wardrobe (shorts that aren't from the mens sports department...at least). Living in Florida.. this is a good thing!

Water Aerobics!
I've done water aerobics in the past, I remember being t my grandmas pool and doing some with her and her friends. This most recent time I went with some girls in my WW class. It was not as low intensity as I remember with my grandma and her buddies. I'm glad this wasn't like how I remembered. It was actually purdy fun! I think I was sweating in the pool? weird feeling.

I wrote this post up several days ago and I have no idea what is taking me so long to post it!

Breakfast!!

Look who decided to take  rest infront of the house this afternoon :)

   Good news!

Now that my camera charger isn't lost :) :) :) :) :) :) !!!!! I can finally upload the pictures I had on there from before! I was all set to buy a new charger on Ebay and the last thing I do before heading over to the computer was find my camera charger. I KNEW IT! I thought I'd find it after I ordered it though.

Happy 2013 everyone!!

Weigh In Update(s)

AHH!
Aside from not blogging D:
I've been very productive the past few weeks.
I'm working on my portfolio for a specific job... I'll be applied by the end of this month!

{Nov,24th } LAST WEEK= -1.4 lbs 

Current Weight= 276.6 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 43.4 lbs

________________________________.___.___._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________THIS WEEKS WEIGH IN!___________________

This Week = -1.8 lbs 

Current Weight= 274 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 45.2 lbs

Still working back to where I was a few weeks ago, but I've lost the past few weeks. I'm changing my foods currently. Making better choices.

I just had some dental work done the other day, so now I need to eat some softer foods for a bit. It actually ended up working well with the new foods I've chosen to start eating anyways.

I'm trying to work on getting more ...

.fiber

.potassium

and just in general .less processed foods

I recently rearannged everything in my room to make more space for a desk to work on. I had been moving all my things into the living room each time I wanted to do work...and sometimes it just messed up the "workin' groove". Especially when I wanted to work on my art. So now that I don;t have to create a portable office everyday I want to work, I should have more time to get everything I want done. It may not sound like much, but it was a hassel.

While I was moving all my stuff around, I had misplaced my camera charger...I need to upload pictures! :} I'll be making it my mission to find that charger tonight! Along with tuning in for some Walking Dead & Dexter :} 

Hope everyones weekend was great

Goodnight

Weigh-In!

1st+Here's where we are at!

This Week = -1.6 lbs 

Current Weight= 276 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 45.6 lbs

It was lovely out this evening!!!

So! Turns out the bike I was talking about in my last post has old dry tires....my dad told me it's in need of some tlc! I found this out after riding around a little.
 BUT THEN ! I found my brothers bikes. He has two because he get into his "kicks" it was biking for a while...so I took the more "friendly" looking bike for a ride.
UHHHHH...I have no idea how my brother sits on that seat. I'm prettyy sure that even if I weighed my ideal weight that seat would still have given me problems. I couldn't stand to go further than just around the neighborhood. The next morning I felt it, no details needed....but it was all very sore in all those kinds of areas.-haha

side note: I love the name of my seat on my old bike "CHEEKS". I'd rather ride around on those "Cheeks" anyday.

 Other than the fact that I will not be using my brother's bike anytime soon..and my need to wait a bit to get my own tires fixed, it was nice being back on a bike. We have bicycles at the gym...but it's just different. Till then, I'm still looking for soemthing that will get my weight changing again.

This routine is too much of a routine!

Last Nights YUMMY DINNER!

The other night we had shish kabobs! They were pretty darn good too.

Phew-Anyways- I'm feeling so much better being caught back up on my postings!

Goodnight Everyone

TGIF (almost)

Weigh-In & NSV :)

What's with all the late updating Wallflower?!

I don't know!!!!

I went to Weight Watchers this past Saturday, but havn't updated here yet!

Here's where we are at!

This Week = -1.6 lbs

Current Weight= 276 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 44 lbs

I feel like I'm on a Teeter Totter.. up and down these few pounds. I actually recall having this same problem last year at this exact weight. I couldn't quite get to that 50lb. mark! 
I'm thinking that some changesneed to be made. I've been working out on the same machines...and I think it's just having less of an effect. I do up my resistance on themachines... but it doesn't seem to be enough.
I'm going to have to some thinking about what extra I can do. MY BIKE is fixed, it just needed some air in the tired. I havn't taken a ride in a while.

MY NSV- Non-scale victory!

It's been time for a new pair of pants for a while now.... I caught a look at how my jeans were looking in a store mirror. I was not impressed, my bum was all saggy and it just wasn't flattering anymore.

Those were size 24! I have moved down previously from size 28 (my largest :(...) to my now 22 size jeans.

I've taken into concidertion that every brand has different measurments! So confusing! Just let 22 be a 22 and so on....

This was nice, I'm thinking of buying a few of this pair. Usually after wearing jeans/ pants for a bit..they get loose till the next time you put them in the drier...

Maybe that's just me, but these don;t do that at all. I could wear them all day nd they feel just as fitted as they did when i first put them on in the morning. It's nice to have soemthing that fits well.

Just thought I'd share that NSV!

Good Afternoon!

Unofficial Weigh-In & Small Vacation!

Alrighty!

Weigh-In wise, I was unable to go to WW meeting this past week. I usually keep track of my weight at home and at the meetings. So, that was helpful this week when I couldnlt use the scale at WW. I was down 1 pound from my last week!
So, it's a loss- but getting back will be nice :)
I had actually planned on going a day erlier than I usually do...but then thaattt day I had to leave earlier than expected initially!

Just got done watching Dexter! O: Uhh, i just want to know everything...right now!

Weekend!!!

This past week was very exciting! I went to the Spooky Empire Horror Convention this weekend! I saw so many great people! Ahh what's whith all the explimation points!? I don't know, but I'm still pretty excited...
My favorite part was sitting in on a Q&A with R.L Stine, he was there promoting his new adult novel.  Knowing he was going to doa  signing, i brought along my copy of The Haunted Mask! What a nice guy, sincerely, it was wonderful meeting such a nostalgic figure...

I'll be updating with some real pictures :}

and real words making real sentences.... at this point my brain checked-out for the night!

I'm exhausted from this awesome trip!

UPDATED :)....

I chose The Haunted Mask :} Since it was Halloween & my favorite GB.

I choose from the Goosebumps I had in my room, the rest are in storage :{. I kept some of my favorites in storage.
Like the choose your own endings.


Hope everyone else has been doing well! 

for now-

Good night!!!

Early Weigh-In Update :]

All packed ready the trip to Orlando for HHN22!!!

This Weeks WW Weigh-In

This Week = -2 lbs

Current Weight= 274 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 45 lbs

earned another 5 lb star!!

I'll be going back to my usual Saturday morning weigh-ins after this.
Yay! A loss :] Phew.. 2 lbs lost (totally unexpected).

I was feeling the need for chocolate this week... and maybe I kinda bought myself a bag of chocolate chips. Yeah, I did that, the bad part was that it went into my room! Not the kitchen.. my room. So, after realizing I was not able to controllllll myself with this bag of chocolate I decide it's better for me to throw them out! They were melted down the drain. Probably not the way you are supposed to get rid of chocolate, or anything for that matter, but that's how it goes :/

Of Course, I'd prefer being able to control myself with what I eat... but I went about this all wrong. Next time I want some chocolate I'll make sure it's individual...and not some family sized bazooka bag.

ANYWAYS!

Hope everyone has a great week/end

I'll be back Sunday or Monday :]

Goodnight
