lela gypsypunk Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 I've recently discovered (read: come to terms with) that I have gained back the majority of the weight I lost. My sidetracks included schoolwork + wedding planning + 40 hour week job. I'm unhappy about this weight gain and I need a solid plan to get back on track. I'm out of school for now, and the wedding has already happened; so this should be simple, like it was the first time since there's so much less to juggle. I'm going to workout 4x per week. I will only have one helping of dinner. If I have dessert it will consist of strawberries and 2 pieces of dark choclate. I will to eat more veggies than my husband and to help with this I will eat more sweet potatoes. (love sweet potatoes, and now that I'm thinking about them, I want one) My goal is to lose 11lbs by 11/01/14 or fit back into my jeans. Most people think this is really easy, but I'm short and when I gain weight it all goes on my belly and hips first, so my shape changes drastically with every 5lbs. I've got my workouts planned out for the next 3 weeks, so I'll keep posting them here and on my fitocracy. I need some form of accountability. Tomorrow will be a day where I wreck shop and sweat on the floor. Wish me luck. Quote Q. Well, what kind of strength do you want? A. You mean I get to choose? Polar bear strength!

lela gypsypunk Posted September 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 I am doing pretty good with my portions and my desserts. I'm trying to remember that the weight will come off slowly but surely, despite how much I want it off right now. I don't care of its 10lbs or 100lbs, my weight has always been an issue for me. This is my Dragon to fight, that I will always have self love, no matter what size I am, or shape I'm in. Defeat is not an option, burpees are! Quote Q. Well, what kind of strength do you want? A.
