Updates

Hi everyone........
I just wanted to update everyone since I've not been on in a few days. Things here have been crazy. I posted in an earlier blog that my cousins grandpa had brain cancer, and unfortunaly, he passed this past Saturday. I found out that my brother has a spot on each lung and we don't know what they are. He used to be a firefighter and it could be from the smoke that he has inhaled over the years, or even cancer........but lets not think that.
Now, on to me......I do not think that things are going well for me. My eating.....haha, BAD BAD BAD!!! My excerise.........NON-EXISTENT! We have been running alot from our medical that has been going on. Though I've still NOT got the x-rays done, but I will Wednesday. We got to be up there anyways for another appt. for my husband, so I'll do it then. We sat at the ER today for almost 4 hours to make sure he was okay with his, NOW, hernias.....yeah, 2 of the damn things!!! I strongly believe that I have gained weight these last two weeks, but I WILL get back on track. I just need a fresh start and time to declutter my brain and my house! I know that being overweight comes with baggage, and I have to sort thru some of that, and I will, and I will come out on top! PROMISE!!! Though I've not gained ALOT, I don't want any, of course. I'm going to try improve our site a little since I'm just chilling out right now. But until next time I will say that I've had a gain of 1.5 pounds. :(

It's not over............yet

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to get all of you that read our blogs that I am feeling "better" but not back to 100%! This stuff is really nasty and the last I heard, my in-laws had it too, so don't expect great things.....or anything this week.
I didn't weigh in, and don't know that it would do any good this week cause this crap makes you swell. My husband stepped on the scale and it said that he was something like 185..........that is a 6lb gain in 1 day...........I THINK NOT! Mine is still about the same, so I don't now what to think right now. I am going to count this as a no gain, no loss week. :( I hate to do that, but I know that once I get to feeling better, I'll be able to workout and drop the weight!
My fever is staying down, but I still ache, and my knees.......OMGosh! Lets not talk about those. They are getting worse by the day and I've not done excerise in 5 days! Now the pain is going all the way around the back. I've not gotten the x-rays done cause I don't want to get out and do anything.....go figure.
 
I have added a few photos of me, and sorry, but they are all face shots....(concidering I took them myself) but you can see some small difference in my face. Hopefully next week will have better results in store for me. And these pics were taken day 1 of me being sick, so I don't know how that is going to reflect on them, but I thought they were cute! (And my hair is fixed :O) That is a huge thing for me! I don't fix it unless I feel better about myself, so I guess that is something huh??
 
But that is about all I have as of right now.......but keep up the work and you will suceed!

More on the sickies

Well, now I'm am officially sick. My throat hurts, I have aches and pains, a fever and I'm just exhausted.....even after taking a 4 hour nap....Thankfully the kids slept as well. I called my husband at work this evening to tell him to pick me up some motrin and soup from the store as he come home and he informed me that in "breifing" they said that there are 53 strains of the flu currently going around......17 are here in AZ Surprised So everyone that lives here, be prepared, I guess. I just hope that it passes soon so I can get back to my routine. Although it's been only today, I miss it..........SadBut what can I do. I'm not gonna make myself hurt worse cause I wanna ride my bike...hehe (slightly)
But that is about it at this hour, so until I get to feeling better.......Best of Luck and Stay Well!

Sickies

Hi,
I just wanted to let everyone know that I may be out for a few days. My kiddies have the flu and I got up with a sore thoatSad So lets hope this passes soon. So far, the baby is still doing okay, but got her some pedilyte and fever reducer just to be safe! My knees are still hurting so I've went to every other day on the bike so I'm not really messing with them.
So that is about it for now.
Until next time,
Crystal

Weigh in

Hi all,
Well, I just got back from the drs. office and to no suprise I had a small gainSad But it's not horrible, the gain being 1.4 lbs. That is what I lost last week, but that's okay. I'm not all freaked out over it and I knew that I'd be lucky to have a loss with my body these last few weeks.
Now on to other things.......I have to get some x-rays done on my knees to see what is going on with them. The last week or so that have been hurting on the inside. (The inside of the leg, not internal, though that is where the pain is :O) So lets hope that goes okay! I hope it's where I ride the bike alot! Wish me luck on that.....though next week, look for a Big Loss!!! It's time for one for me! Wink 
Until next time,
Crystal

Another Update

Hello all,
I just want to let everyone know that I am doing better now! Finially after 12 long, horriable, tired days, I'm better! As the song that I just listened to says, "I'm a Survivor!" I have done well on my diet and I've done extensive workouts these last few days where I've been feeling better! So far today I've put in 100 minutes on the bike or 1 hour and 40 minutes! That's alot, I know, but I don't want a gain and I really want a loss this week. But regardless, I will NOT give up! That isn't an option for me, nor will it ever be!!!! I was gonna go to the dr. today, but decided against it and will weigh in tomorrow, as I've done for the last 4 weeks, on Wednesday! Wednesday's have been good days for me, and I like that. But here is what I gotta say now.....Look out next week cause starting tomorrow I will be putting my big ole butt on that bike and ride, ride, ride!  I will be sitting there riding and teaching my son, riding and watching television, and just riding when I can! I will, of course, be doing my resistance training. We can't have that flabby crap can we. Nope, nope, nope!!!
I was doing some reading the other day and I've come to the conclusion that I will probaby have to have the excess fat cut from my stomach. Sad I'm looking at almost 100 pounds that I will be losing and with having 3 c-sections, well, my stomach isn't pretty to look at in the least and I do belive that my elasticty isn't very good anymore...Sad But in the long run, I know that it will be worth it. If I were to do it now, I'd honestly lose about 8-12 pounds! (I know, WOW!!!) Let's just imagine what that will be once I lose what I need too!!! HOLY CRAP!!!
I do have to say that I'm sooooo exited that Marilyn has lost another 2.5 pounds!! That's just AWESOME! So now, I gotta say, it's nice to be back in the game!!! And it feels good!!!
Until tomorrow! PEACE and Best of Luck!

Don't give up now!

Hi Everyone,
I just weighed in and I have lost 2 1/2 lbs more. That may not sound like a lot but it is 7,000 calories. I have been using my treadmill and going uphill on it. It makes my calves sore so I can't do it every day but I do it every other day. Crystal is having a lot of trouble right now, but I know she will stick to her diet as best she can.

Moment of Truth

Hello again,
Well, I am here again, thinking to myself that I really just want to quit. Not becasue of a disappointing weigh in or that I've eaten the wrong things, no, not at all.  But because I am having issues with my body, medically. Sad Not to get personal, but since taking b.c. pills last month, my body has decided to punish me. I shouldn't have taken them, but I really don't want anymore kids right now, and don't know if I want anymore period! So, what is going on? This makes day NINE!!!! Ladies you'll understand I think! I'm over it. I'm tired, I'm not motivated, and I'm craving things that's not even in my freaking house! (Thankfully) I've not workout out the last 2 days, but again, I'm tired. My iron is low, haha, who would have thought that! I've also been getting light~headed when I stand up, so I have to be really carefull to stand up really slow so that I don't fall or faint! This so sucks! So I've told myself that "IF" I have a gain by some chance that I will just work harder once I'm doing better. I feel like I'm just making excuses not to do this, though I'm not!
 
On another note: I just found out that my cousins/best~friends grandpa has brain cancer!!!! So now I'm devastated!!!!!!!!!!! It is her mom's dad, her dad is my uncle! And I know himCrying
 
So until then,
Crystal

Weigh In

Hello all,
Well, about my weigh in! Did I lose or did I gain? Or did I just have a stand still week?? Well, I had a 1.4 pound drop!!! YAY! With my body and my eating this past week! I'll take it! I've now dropped a total of 13 pounds, and that is more than I have done by myself without falling off for more 1 or  2 days!! This is so awesome! I just wish I knew how my mother-in-law has done this week!!!! I'm sure she has done great though! I'm so happy that I actually had a loss. I know that I am retaining some water too! All the ladies knows what that is like! But I am hoping that is soon to pass! If not, I'll be off to the dr. to see what I can do to quit!
I went to wal-mart and got me a journal for keeping track of my food/calorie intake and workouts that I do. I think it will be easier to put it on paper verses on the computer cause facts are, I don't get on here except at night and by that point I've forgotten what all I've eat and what all I did in a workout, so lets hope this helps me keeping on plugging away at the weight! I'm okay with 1-2 pounds a week, but lets see if I can get 3 or 4 a couple times anyway. My goal for the match up is 35 pounds and if I don't start dropping a little more, it's not going to happen! I don't want that. I've not been down to or even close to 200 in over 5 years! I would love to see that number again and soon!!!
 
Until next time,
Crystal

Update

Hello all,
I was just wanting to update everyone on how I've been doing, and honestly, it's not been the greatest! I'm tired, sluggish, I don't want to do anything and my eating, let's not really go there.....
It's been REALLY REALLY bad, and can proably use some motivation to get back on track. I don't know if it's because it's that "time" or what, but I just now that I want carbs! Mainly in the form of sweets, but don't have any around, so I guess that is a good thing. But I have been eating ALOT of my special K bars. 90 cals. for one isn't bad, but that does add up after so many!!! I've eat alot of them.....I got to STOP!
I've still been doing workouts, just not as much as I have in the past. I have weigh in on Wednesday, and don't know what to expect! I hope I don't gain! Even if it's just a no loss week. I can deal with that. If I were to gain right now, I'd probably quit. I'm trying to stay strong and get over this bump in the road, but it's so freaking hard.
Another thing that I've noticed is that I feel like crying right now. Again, I don't know if it's from "it" but I've not felt like crying in a long long time.
I know that in time, I WILL get back on the right track, I just got to get the mind set again. I feel like I've not done my part for Marilyn. She got over her bump and that is an amazing thing, now I've got me having food issues! What do I do???
I guess in a way this is a cry for help! I just got to get back the mind set and I know that, and I'm working on it. Just bare with me!
 
Congrats on everyones successes!
Crystal
