^ you're amazing. i can't stay that focussed and motivated for so long and yet you make it look easy. lol

hehe thank you. it's taken a long time to get the motivation i have now. i guess you could say it's just built up inside of me all my life, being picked on and stuff for not being skinny. and it definitely is not easy. D: some days i just want to quit and sleep for three days straight. some days i just don't feel like exercising, so i don't. but in the end i know the result will be worth it. after all it isn't going to kill me, so i might as well do it. haha

if you don't mind my asking, what kinda weight lifting do you do? :]
oh and what's calisthenics?!

i just do wimpy arm and leg lifting (haha don't know the exact terms.. sorry!) with like 10 pound dumbbells.
and calisthenics are like push-ups, crunches, etc. etc. workout routines you'd find in seventeen or something!

---

anyways on my birthday, in february, my parents got me an exercise ball (this was exactly a week before i would start my diet). at the time i was offended, and was like "what are you trying to say, that i am fat??" so i didn't use it. and then forgot about it until now, and saw it sitting on the shelf in my closet. well, i blew the thing up today and tried it out. it came with a little poster of workouts in the box.
let me just say.... I LOVE IT. i can already tell my abs, inner thighs, and arms are going to be so so sore tomorrow morning. but i'm glad because i like feeling sore, lets me know that i am getting a good workout.
haven't lost anything in the past 2 days, still 20 pounds off from the target weight. maybe i'll weigh myself later, or in the morning, and see if it's gone down. let's hope so.

RECENT POUND LOSSAGE: 1/2 lb.
TOTAL POUND LOSSAGE: 24 1/2 lbs.

uh, thanks??
i'm not anorexic. you have to be 15% below your healthy bmi weight to be anorexic.
i just posted a hecka low goal weight because i figure if i have a big goal, i'll at least stop being lazy a little and lose maybe 10 or 15 pounds.
it's my choice to desire to be however thin i want =]
what may be thin for you isn't necessarily thin for me.
^-^

day 2
bingeeeeeee
like 20000000 calories i bet.
ew.
my weight is still 119. =(

119 wants to be 84....how tall are you?

eating so little, such as 185 calories, is no use anyway.
if your body doesnt get enough nutrition, your body will turn any food you eat into FAT so that your body doesnt feel weak and your organs are working well.

119 wants to be 84....how tall are you?

if your body doesnt get enough nutrition, your body will turn any food you eat into FAT so that your body doesnt feel weak and your organs are working well.

seriously.

i'm probably going to get a lot of crap for this, but judging from a lot of what i'm seeing, the majority of you aren't eating enough! and a lot of you, based on the amount of calories you guys are taking in, are borderline annorexic. and that's a shame, because if you don't eat enough, all the exercise you guys are doing really isn't going to get you any results. in general, i suggest you guys eat A LOT more, but EAT CLEAN, and balance it out. incorporate a lot of protein, some fats, don't be afraid to eat CARBS (as long as they're the good kind), and vegetables. CUT chips, cookies, sweets, candy, sugar (you can eat a fruit instead), and greasy fried fruits. and DRINK A LOT OF WATER. so much that your urine is clear, 24-7. keeps you full, too. eating CLEAN alone will get you to drop a good 2 lbs. a week, on average. i say this because it worked for me. seriously.

oh, and do some weightlifting/cardio. i personally find that cardio doesn't do much for me. i weightlift -- like, free weights; bench press, squats, and all that good stuff, and no, you don't end up looking like a man. it really burns calories!

but the MOST important part is diet. if your diet is bad, and you're eating bad food and/or not enough calories, exercise won't do ANYTHING.

EAT PEOPLE! but EAT SMART.

[geruhjima]

i need to kick my butt into high gear. i think that since i've lost so much weight my body is trying to hold onto all the stuff it has now, and it is like used to lots of exercise. but i will prevail!
ran for 30 minutes today (3 miles.. so slow i know but hey!), and did a lot of light weight lifting and calisthenics.
i think this weekend i am going to eat just fruits, vegetables, and lean meats. all the fruits & veggies i want. i just need to cleanse my body a little and stop eating all of these carbs.. it's getting boring! i'm sick of these stupid low-cal snack baggies. i don't even want to eat them anymore. i just crave fruit fruit and more fruit. i suppose that's a good thing though, woot!

I heard, a healthy way to lose weight is if you give up caffeine or whatever you drink and drink green tea daily, you will lose 5 pounds in a month =]
MY goal is to lose about 10 pounds. I'd be extremly happy if i do so.
