I always wanted to experience a manic episode... I think I may have come close enough in real life though

Well done on the healthy day!

It can be fun, but it can also be really irritating. Like, sometimes I get really angry for no reason, or I'm stuck at home and want to do something but at the same time I don't want to do anything at all and I just get really anxious and antsy. I used to get like, hysterical at night sometimes because after I got really manic I would fall into a really deep depression (suicidal ideation, hallucinations, severe anxiety included) All in all, it pretty much sucked. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, let alone a friend.

Anywho... I hit 212.6 pounds today!! THAT'S 20 FREAKING POUNDS!!! YAY!!! I feel like I need to celebrate. No gorging for me! I think I want to go clothes shopping with my mom. I'll bug her about it tomorrow.

I did the treadmill today for 30 minutes on a 4% incline.

I have to go to bed now.

Byes!!

You have reached your 20 pound mark. No matter what difficulties arise from now, you WILL make it to your goal, because you have come this far! Congratulations, I am so proud of you. You have put in a lot of effort and it has paid off. Whoa! 4% incline! Way to go!

Great job on the 20 lbs! Your doing awesome!

211.4 pounds!!
YAY!!!

Wow!! You are doing soooo well!! Keep up the great work!!

Thanks Swamp!

Good job! Keep up the good work!

haha... All of this weight loss and stuff has made me more aware of just how many calories are in certain foods. I decided to indulge in some of my McD's favorites today, but now I work out how many calories I want to use on each food. I had a whole bunch left since it was my first meal (I know... tsk tsk for not eating breakfast. I didn't wake up early enough, so there. ) and I got a 10 piece nugget and a medium fry. 855 calories. So tonight for dinner I had a lean cuisine (the best one ever! Salisbury steak and mac and cheese! 280 calories.) So I think I'm doing pretty okay for today. I know, not the most nutritious so far, but I'll work in some good stuff later.

Oh yeah, 209.4!!
Kickass, man! I think the weight is coming off fast right now because I have so much to lose. I think it'll slow down once I have less to lose. Ah well.

Thank you glitter!

VACATION. Dreaded by dieters everywhere, mine comes this friday. No internet, no fitday, no forum. AHHHHH!!!

I think since my maintainance level is 2300, I might go up to 2000, maybe 2100 so I have plenty of room for all the favorites (crab legs, fried shrimp, bologna sandwiches, SALTWATER TAFFY!!!)

I swear, that cinnamon saltwater taffy will be my downfall.

I did really well today, even though I had a 3 egg omelette (ham and cheese) YUM!

I have learned that if you deprive yourself of your favorites, you're setting yourself up for failure. Indulge, but in smaller portions than you would usually have.


Haha, I finally have advice to give!

Anyway, I'll talk to you guys later. (before I leave, hopefully)

Throw all of your vacation advice at me! I NEED HELPPPPPP!

<3

Good idea with the calorie level. Remember, maintaining is going to be your triumph, I know you can do it! I like your attitude, I agree about indulging in the small things if you really feel like it.

A good thing about vacation is TIME. Yeah, you may say, "time to eat!!" but rather I say "time to explore"..... walk, walk everywhere and explore! It will burn off your holiday foods.... plus it's pretty near effortless!

haha... thanks. I'm going to see if I can get someone to walk on the beach with me.

I downloaded Fitday pc! Hopefully it helps to still be keeping an eye on my calories.

I just did the treadmill, but instead of upping the speed (which I can't do for very long) I upped the incline- 6% incline for 30 minutes. 178 CALORIES BURNED!!

Does anyone here like the band AFI (afireinside)? Oh man, I am in love with Davey Havok. He's dreamy. The only guy I would ever consider dating. Seriously, man. Wow.

Oh yeah, if you didn't know, yes, I am a lesbian.
Sooooo... I hope that doesn't change anything (although I'm almost positive it won't )

Ha... I think the 209.4 weight reading wasn't accurate.

Byes

haha... Okay, silence. Didn't expect that, but okay...

Of course it doesn't change anything!!

Your going great, keep it up!

Hehe, you're just paranoid

Sup my lesbian friend!

I looooooove AFI! How about 30 second to mars?

Don't you pay to get Fitday PC? Well done on the 6% incline! Remember, you don't always need to do one steady speed all the way, go faster for a minute at a time with 3 mins slower inbetween each minute of faster. You can always up it from there too
