Have been trying to monitor what I eat even closer than normal. It is getting difficult and stressful for me. Also slowly becoming more consistent with working out. Going to build up a schedule to follow for it so I don't get burned out too easily.
Still considering doing the 'subway diet' route to make things a little bit easier to follow and keep track of.
Very glad I have dropped some weight and am now lower than where I started. Need to keep this up.

Had started taking measurements to go along with the weight and stuff a few weeks ago and haven't been putting them on here so I might as well start now.

Weight: 133.8
Body Fat: 36.7%
BMI: 27.4
Waist: 30.5in
Arm: 11in
Thigh: 22.5in

MOTIVATION…

I don’t have it…

I need it…

*sigh*…

Don't know why I bother with these journals, no one reads them anyway.

Stressing out...

Trying to follow this calorie conscious diet is getting difficult. The things to eat I'm either not interested in, don't think they taste good, or don't fill me up for long.
Spending all day thinking of food because you are hungry doesn't help anyone be in a good mood or not stuff their face.

The microwave meals taste terrible and arent filling, small portions and healthy snacks hasn't taken hold because I've lost the point where a snack is a snack and not a meal.. I will just keep eating before I realize it. Thought to try the meal in a bag things since they were quick and easy and pairing with a salad wouldn't be so bad but they don't fill me up for very long.

Thinking of the whole "subway diet" where, although effective, the weight loss is actually just a result of eating fewer calories and has little to do with the actual food consumed. But the convenience is nice I guess. Knowing that I can have the sandwich and not feel bad about eating it, along with some other things to fill in the missing nutrition of course...
That and the fact that I can actually have a 6inch sub on wheat with a diet soda or water and not be hungry for longer than when I make my own meals is pretty appealing.
The turn off... Were I to try this idea it would be approximately 434$ a month since its a low fat 6inch for lunch and a low fat foot-long for dinner (coupled with cereal for breakfast).
Granted I spend about 200$ on groceries as it is so I'd be spending less on groceries and stocking up basically on water (tap water here tastes horrendous), fruits, veggies, and breakfast items for the most part but that is still a crazy amount to spend per month on food and I don't know if I can really justify that only for convenience and my own peace of mind...

Between my lousy/crappy eating habits and my slowly increasing activity level I'm not losing anything and every time I think im making progress I find out that im going the opposite direction... (Between my old account that I lost access to somehow and this new one I've done nothing but gain weight. I got down to 133 and thats the lowest I've been able to get to so far and I cant seem to get down again. Every week I find I have gone up again.)
been having salads, measurin gout my portions, making sure i dont eat too often or not often enough, walking around. standing, riding my bike, morning workout... there has to be somethign i am doing wrong...

The exercise itself isn't solidly consistent (and yes that is completely my own fault) but I thought I was doing good on my portion control and frequency and food content. And truthfully one can lose weight (although rather minimal) without exercising by staying low in calories. Not saying I dont want to or dont exercise (I don't exercise enough I know that already) but if my food is being done right why isn't this working with my minimal-could-use-improvement exercise.. Trying to take that part slow and then increase it as I go along cause I cant handle a lot of exercise yet.. Terribly out of shape.

Stressing out. Blah. Had a big dinner... not long ago.. Already hungry again. This is becoming a stupidly annoying cycle and I'm running out of ideas on how to break it.

Still struggling, it is difficult to change the habits still but it is getting easier every day. Weight might have gone up slightly but my body fat percentage is down somewhat also. (36.7 compared to 37.3)

It is going to be a long hard road at this rate -.-;

Invited my friend to join who is also losing weight so that is a plus.

Haven't been following things as closely as I should. Changing these bad habits is incredibly difficult but it's not impossible... Determination. I need more of it...

I wish I had a friend here to help me adhere to my plan and regime. One friend doesn't care, one isn't reliable and my roommate also doesn't care. (I have three friends... So that leaves me with, no one. It sucks)
If I get a craving for something unhealthy, instead of suggesting something better he goes right along and says 'you should do it, I want some too'...
But how can I expect him to help me with this when he gave up his weight loss stuff after he got a new girlfriend. And she is bigger than him. Last I checked having a box of corn dogs in your freezer is not conducive to shedding pounds -.-;

Whatever, excuses. Started my P90 over again this morning in an attempt to maintain it daily instead of skipping out on it here and there. Also need to start riding more, or else this bike purchase is going to go to waste. Rode to school this morning also, felt really good (even if it is the equivalent of a 5minute walk, something is better than nothing)

Oh well, it's almost 7... Dinner time, going to go find something healthy to make.
