WOW. I don't even know how else to say it. I am so shocked and just thrilled about how many people have already sent me support and suggestions. I have to say... it's a lot to retain, but I am going to try. I mean I already took some of the comments and ran with them. J Ho... I got a personal trainer today at the gym and I'm super pumped/ terrified. THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU!!! This is exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for. So dont get bored with me! haha keep it up guys! I love you all dearly.
The strange thing is is that I thought this first week would be the easiest.... but I'm only on day two and the gym kicked me ASS today. I ran on the Elliptical for 30 minutes and the last five minutes I thought were going to be the death of me. Ugh it was terrible. BUT FEAR NOT. I am still not scared. I know it's going to hurt. Especially now when I am the most out of shape I have ever been in.
Now a lot of the comments yesterday said that my goals were a bit off perhaps. Thank you for telling me but honestly... I have no way of knowing how to properly set a goal for myself. So I kinda just took a stab in the dark. Any thoughts?
Today at dinner Emily ordered chips and artichoke dip.... and i didn't eat a single ONE!!! .....just about killed me. I had a chicken salad with like a tablespoon of dressing. proud? I was.
ps, did anyone notice that i named my web adress ryanlosing S weight.blogspot.com? Where the dump did that "S" come from. Damn. I dont know if i should even fix that....
So again,,, thank you all so very much and keep on following me! These first two weeks are crucial . I got this.

Im so prod of you! Let me know if you have any questions! I am also dieting and being quite successful. Apparently i am supposed to weigh around 110 lbs! yikes!
ReplyDeletedon't forget: you can do ANYTHING you put your mind to. Think of how far you have come in your career, this is just a mere bump in the road! You WILL do this, it will just take time! I love you! Call me!
one great tool I use is sparkpeople. They helped me know how many calories i should be eating. I went for two weeks eating 1200 cals and only lost a lb a week, but when i bumped my cals up to 1400 i lost 4 lbs in one week!
ReplyDeleteYour gonna be so freaking hot! I see a 6 pack in your future!
This is Rooms, fyi.
ReplyDeleteSo proud of you Ryan. This is a huge step.
Tomorrow is probably going to be harder than today, and the next day harder than tomorrow. But your body will get used to it. Just don't give up.
What helps me at the gym is setting a schedule (which I know you are already doing) and allowing yourself a day of rest each week. However, on that day off, do two things. One, do something nice for yourself. Not like eat a candy bar, but do something to reward yourself for your hard work. Secondly, do something active so you don't feel like you wasted your day. Go on a walk with Izzy or play a mean road of volleyball.
On the goal comment, its good to have high goals so you never become lazy. However it is also good to look at them knowing that they are GOALs and you will get there, just maybe not on the exact time you expected. You know? But i say aim for it!!
Just some thoughts. Proud of you. You are going to be in such great shape.
Good job hon! I hope you get into the habit of cooking more at home. Make dinners and invite friends over to share them with you, bring the social aspect of eating back to you instead of going out. It'll just be easier to control the outcome with that as opposed to putting your trust in a restaurant. I love you baby, keep up the good work. Stay strong, everyone here knows you can do it.
