my adventures in trying to lose weight
14 years ago
( will resume drawing soon. hopefully this or next week. Dotter, and Ren Tsune are first on my list, along with my secret santa drawing)
So i have decided to lose weight. the good news is i am doing this for me, and not for someone else. It has been a hard decision to make, surprisingly, and one that has wrought me with alot of cursewords. I saw myself in too many pictures where i felt akward because i was bulbous. so to change, i started a small regiment that i can fit into my everyday life. i do situps and crunches every morning, and i have been trying to change my diet up, but the key for me so far is, i am not doing anything drastic. none of that, lose weight in 1 month bullshit. you never keep off crazy dieting and exercise weight. you just lose it long enough to look nice and it comes back. sucky thing is, you see NO changes for awhile. you can feel a few, but the pants fit just as tight. I am trying to fit new things in weekly. walks, maybe racquetball, and other stuff. stuff i can enjoy, not bullshit that i hate with a passion. it is not easy, and i nearly break into tears when i see a good cookie ( i miss you red velvet cookie). still, i am trying, and doing, despite my utter hatred for it.
moral support is welcome ( PLEASE WUV ME). i type this because i want to have soem written thing on it that people can reference and guilt me with. poke me and say, well you said you are trying to change. and then i will come up with a justification that works for the situation, such as, yes im eating this huge fucking sandwich, because i worked out this morning, or i will work out tonight to work it off..dont look at me like that..okay fine i will save half for later. also, i type this because, all of you, YES ALL OF YOU can do the same. i find its easier to do when you make a pact of sorts with someone. so anyone else who needs a reason to change, i will keep trying to change as long as you do. jump on my lovely bandwagon, and we shall all venture forth into getting better at our lives.
but yes, support me PLEASEEEEEE

You've already mentioned the best thing is to change your diet and exercise routine, but with nothing drastic. I think that's most important, because it helps you keep the good habits you get, instead of just dieting for a few weeks and then reverting back.
A few changes, and now I can not eat the way I used to, just over one year ago. I lost weight easily, now down to what I want to be at, after cutting back portion sizes, and ditching some really bad habits. 20 pounds in 10-11 months doesn't seem like much, but I'm happy now.
You have my support, of course. :)
My only personal proof of this is my somewhat steady weight. but that's because I got a sensitive stomach, if I eat late I will feel sick. So I cut myself off of food around 8pm.
