Tomorrow I will follow my usual meal plan. The one I followed all school year. Tomorrow, everything changes. OMG, and I picked up the mail, and a $100 tax refund check came for me! So here's the deal: If I can lose 5 lb by Christmas, I'll buy myself an entire outfit. A dress with tights and shoes, or a top, cardigan, and skinnies... I have no idea what I weigh now, but I'll find out tomorrow morning. But I KNOW I've gained a substantial amount of weight and I've been eating too much because I've been pooping twice a day. Ya, ya, TMI, I know... So...FIVE POUNDS! Who else wants to lose 5 lb, by xmas? Let's support each other? 
I'm making a new year's resolution list. The person I want to be, the things I want to be able to do, the goals I want to accomplish...It's still a work in progress, but I'm trying to carry out the resolutions now. Why wait until 2011? Start making the change now!
i love this post - it's so inspiring! your attitude is the best thing ever.
ReplyDeleteyou've probably posted it before but what is your usual meal plan that you mentioned? and how much did you lose on it?
xx
I'm totally with you on the losing 5 lbs. by Christmas! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd, same question as Amy, but what is your usual meal plan?
5 lbs by Christmas... 11 days. so 5.5 days to lose 2.5 lbs...so 2.75 days to lose 1.25 lbs.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds so easy doesn't it? I wish I could be strong enough to join you. I'm not going to wish you good luck Alisha, because everything you get has been without luck - it has been through your own hard work. Which is why I'm proud of you xxx
Let's do it. I'm with you! Update me on your mealplan? And I totally agree about New Year's Resolutions- gah! We should be following this year-round, not just picking it up when we realize that a number in the date is changing! I'm prepared to say goodbye to this last 5 pounds. WOOOOOOOOOO!

I know you can lose it. You know you can. I would wish you luck, but you don't need it. You've got will power and determination on your side. :)

ReplyDeleteYou are so inspiring, Miss Alisha!
Oh yay, you are always so positive and always planning on doing better the next day, I love that.

ReplyDeletei am a dancer, too. and i loveeee ballet. i know what you mean by looking in the mirror and feeling repulsed. it doesn't help when you're in the studio in skin tight clothes all the time, and always around super skinny girls. constantly. i know the feeling. =[
you can do this! you're beautiful... but you will be walking on air here soon, love.

Thanks for commenting on my picture post. I like that you are honest and notice my giant thighs, too! Haha. I hate them. Is the cardio working for you? I need to get back to lots of running. I just want to make sure I don't build up the muscle too much, either, because that only bulks me up more. :(
ReplyDeleteI need to start looking after myself, again, too. It's crazy how not exercising can mess with by brain.
love picures babe. do u have facebook? i'd add you and of course nothing about ED on there. :)
ReplyDeleteOMG they look mouth-watering! So yum, I'll definitely save the recipe for a treat or party and let you know how they are! ♥ Love you!
