Re: Ugh, here I am again.
Sunny!! -hugs/rattleing- Oh Goodness, when will the shaking ever stop? Lol. I know!!! I'm so so so so SORRY that I disappeared like that. I hate it when I do that because I honestly don't mean to in any way. =(
But, the good thing is, I'm back, single, and ready to kick some ***!! Ya, I just dumped him, or he dumped me? Or something like that a month and a half ago. I was just getting tired and bored of it and the fact that I would never be able to introduce them to my parents and my friends set me off completly.
So anyway, today's going to be a hard day, but I know I can do it!!

Love ya!

Re: Ugh, here I am again.
Okay, Miss Bekka! The others have been too nice to kick your butt for your own good, but no more Miss Nice! If I had you right here in front of me, I would first give you a big hug, then shake you until your teeth rattled, give you another big hug, then kick your butt. You finally kicked that no-good bf to the curb. You found a friend to hang out with. You posted a couple of really positive posts on the Kentucky Derby thread and then disappeared. We were very worried. We sent the posse looking for you, to no avail.
Little Missy, you are so beautiful and have such a great personality, any good man would see you for your good qualities. If he can't, then he is not the man for you.
Just get back on track on the 7th, and don't look back. Look in the mirror every day and find 5 things you like about you. It may be hard to turn your thinking around, but you can do it. Come here every day and post. We love you and we will support you all the way.
Sunny!

Re: Ugh, here I am again.
I tried a few of those recipes this week btw and they were wonderful! Thank you for starting the thread. It definately has helped keep me on track!Originally posted by Elsie150 View Post
Esteliana~ Welcome Back! I so understand about falling off the wagon. I really think this time around is different for me. I'm doing it for ME this time.. I didn't think I'd ever get to the point where it was ok to do it just for ME. Before it was, for my kids, for a new outfit, to attract the eye of a particular guy.. NONE of it worked. But this time it's for me and I can feel the difference. Yesterday was a rough day for me 13 days into induction and I really thought I was gonna scarf some cheese puffs.. but I persevered, got my hiney on the treadmill for an hour and doubled my water intake. I'm very thankful I did. I'm down a lb this morning and that certainly wouldn't have happened if I had given in to a craving. Today is a much easier day.. no cravings.. no temptations.. I am on plan!
Good Luck to you!

Re: Ugh, here I am again.
Thanks Carbless for that kick in the butt. I think I have a post somewhere around the journal forums about why I have the weird low self confidence that I do have. I'm truly working on it, though, I really am. I mean, I have a kick butt job that I'm happy with and I'm becoming more confident in what I do. I just need to become more confident in how I look because I do have a pretty face and everything. =) Just watch, I will look freaking hot when all this is over and done with and I'm Maintenencing for the rest of my life. Oooh ya! ^_^ Can't wait til monday now.

Re: Ugh, here I am again.
[quote=Esteliana;922355]I'm single and there is NO possible way a guy would ever want to be with a fat girl like me. I realize that now.
[quote]
This is absolutely NOT true. Is every overweight woman you've ever seen single? No. Men are attracted to confident, self-assured women. I would be willing to bet, based on how beautiful you look in your picture, that if you're having trouble finding men, it has 100% more to do with your lack of self-confidence than your weight.
Lose weight for yourself, and yourself only! Also, lift your head up high, you are a beautiful girl with a great job, and you're young and have your whole life ahead of you! With a new attitude on life, comes a new self confidence that will have guys lining up to go out with you. If after losing some weight, you feel more confident, and that attracts more men, then awesome! What a great perk that would be of getting healthy!
I had really low self esteem and felt like no guy wanted to date me because I was fat. Then I looked around, and noticed that all my girlfriends are fat too, but they have boyfriends. It turned out that I had a great guy (my best friend) right under my nose who was completely in love with me, but I would push him away, because I was scared of rejection, and scared to become intimate with someone when I felt to unattractive. Through working out and becoming more healthy, and having a new attitude toward things, I have raised myself confidence, accepted him into my life as my boyfriend and things have never been better...and guess what? I'm still fat! So I know it was more than the weight that was holding me back.
I'm sorry for the long post, but when I hear things like that it makes me sad. You are a beautiful girl and you deserve someone who loves you just the way you are! If a guy will only date you if you're skinny, then he is shallow, and doesn't deserve you...what will happen when you become pregnant? You want a guy who is supportive!
Good luck on your atkins journey!Leave a comment:

Re: Ugh, here I am again.
Thank you everyone for your motivation so far! I'm gonna sit down with my mom and tell her that she needs to buy home more veggies and meats for me so I can make food for when I go to work. Some days will be harder than others, I know that, but I will do the best I can.
Reason why it's hard some days is because I work nonstop, back and forth picking up patients and I don't even get to sit down for 5 minutes to spend time for myself. So some days I don't eat at all and you can imagine how I feel by 11 at night, about to pass out, and overly dizzy. 0.0 (I blame this on the dispatcher who has never been an EMT before and don't know what it's like to lift around 6 or so times each patient, they get really heavy too...=( ) And I feel so bad that they are because they really are beautiful people.
Anyway!!!! Can't wait til Monday! I'm nervous, yet excited because I will be doing this again and I'll be happier about it this time. When I'm done, I will come out looking absolutly gorgeous!!
And Mitzi!!! ^_______________^ I've missed you hot mamma!! How you been?Leave a comment:

Re: Ugh, here I am again.
Awwww! Thank you everyone! Sorry it took ages for me to get back to you. I was at work all day yesterday and man, it was really busy!! Holy sugarsnaps! I didn't have one break for myself yesterday and I literally passed out when I came home. It was nice to sleep for a very long time and it's even nicer that I have today off. ^_^
Can't wait til I can start this next week. =) I realized that it's just food. Who cares if it's boring or not? All the body wants is satisfaction of the hunger pang it feels, doesn't matter what you're eating. =P Gotta keep thinking that way. Ya ya! Won't get bored, I hope. At least I love veggies. <3

Re: Ugh, here I am again.
Welcome back. I also dont like to kick dirt on someone when they are down. Stay focused and motivate yourself and be strong enough to resist temptation. God Bless, JoeLeave a comment:
