Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition

    
                 Now this lady above was not featured on the show but she looks amazing!  Anyway I was watching the show this evening, the most recent episode.  Now on this show they give the contestants a year to lose the weight and split it up into weigh ins every 3 months( I can't even go more than 4 days without weighing myself )  This episode focused on the girl Jacqui( pronounced Jackie )  She went from being 355lb to 148lb in a year!
                How is it this women can do this but yet I can't seem to get my 83lbs pounds off.  Smh, it's a shame really.  She worked out 5 hours a day the 1st 3 months and lost 90lbs.  That is a pound a day.  The second phase she dropped to working out 2 hours a day and lost 50lbs and 35 for phase three.  I wonder if I can do this?  Of course I can! 
               So I know I am not doing the right thing but I am going to do what it takes to get this weight off and me back on the right track.  All I want is a jump start then I will go back to eating the right way.  Right now I am going back to the meal replacement plan with veggies and fruits.  Still going to do my 2 hours of work out 3 days a week the other 3 days are just going to be one hour. 
               I am going to have to stay focus and not let my husband, friends, family, or anyone distract me from my goal at hand.  I know it is going to be hard but I can't give up.  I can't.
             So I have been thinking what should my phase 1 goal be lol.  Hmmmmm let me see.  Broken into 4 phases I really would only need to lose 22 lbs every 3 months and in a year I could be at that 120lb goal.  I know slow and steady needs the race but I am going to need to speed this up just a bit.  So let's say 9 months instead of 12.  So just 3 phases.  With it being divided up into 3 months.  I would need to lose just 27lbs which sounds so small right now.
           But I have this secret goal to get to.  Now to reach that goal I would need to lose 33lbs every 3 months.  When I look at it broken down like this.  There is no reason for me to not make this possible.  Does anyone else want to join me?  That would be really cool to have someone along with me but if not that's fine too ^_^


      The one directly above is my favorite.  I wouldn't mind looking like that when I am done.   Weighed in today at 204.6 smh all that work feels like it was for nothing.  At least I am not 210lb so I can't completely whine.  Let's do this.

    1. Wow you are pretty close. You would more than likely have to tighten up your eating habits and try some new crazy way of working out. Just to get to that 201.6 I had to tighten up my eating and do some crazy work out but it worked. I feel like it is too early for me to have to working that damn hard to get this weight off though.

      Yes join me! The more the marry!

  4. being 115 wasn't awesome. I felt gross. My mom wouldn't let me lose anymore. She would always threaten me and tell me she was going to "turn me in" if I didn't start eating. So I was 115 for years and would fluctuate. My Dr. said I was "underweight" at that time and it would make me feel soooo happy. I'd guess I'd rather be 115 than this lard ass of a body I'm in now, but ultimately I don't even want to be 100. I cant believe what I've done.

    1. Oh sorry to hear that. I thought being 115 would have been awesome but if you were not at your dream weight than yeah probably wouldn't be awesome. You will get there again.

  6. Hey Winter, 33 lbs every 3 months is perfectly doable. You can totally do it.

    I hope I can be 112 by next January, so that'd be 100 lbs in a year lol But first I need to focus on getting to 120 lbs by my birthday (November 3rd).

  7. I hate reading that people worked out half the freakin day and lost tons of weight well ddduuuuhhh they better be. and I hate it even more that I can barely find an hour to do mine. I love your thinspo but I have a question for anyone that wants to answer...Were is all their extra skin??? I mean I have extra skin from gaining the normal pregnancy weight and belly and that was only a few months. I am really dieing to know where does their skin go cause I would like to send mine there!!

    1. Hey there. I hear you there. I don't like working out at all but for my body type to lose weight and to keep it off. I have to work out so I have to learn to fuckin love it.

      On this show if they do a good job at losing the weight they get the extra skin removal surgery at no cost to them. Sadly it cost money to remove the extra skin.

      I want some plastic surgery myself but I am waiting until after I have kid 1 or kid 2 depending on how I feel. No sense in me spending all that money just to get fat again.

  8. I'm sorry your weight is up hun... What did you start at?

    You are very determined though, and thus inspiring!

    I'm always up for a challenge, was thinking a 28 day fast, but I'd LOVE to join you, I'm going to be in England for 2 months, with ALL my fave foods that I haven't seen, smelt or touched for 3 years! Lmao, so it's gonna be HARD, I'm gonna want it all in one go =/ *terrified*, so having someone/something to be accountable to/for would be awesome... I will PM you my weight if you like, but you HAVE to PROMISE me that you will tell NO ONE! Lol... But yeah, I'm in.. we can hopefully keep each other motivated!

    LOVING the layout! I was like, 'woah, this isn't the diary I wanted!' lol... It totally rocks x

    Sorry I've been slacking on commenting, trying to work things out with the other half, but I've been reading. albeit a little late sometimes x

    Much love x
