1,060 total calorie consumed (not counting workout)
At this point, TDP says
Our estimate is that you may consume about 1,349 calories a day to lose two pounds per week.
Obviously, 2 lbs a week is a lot to lose at this point. But the setting allows for the best results so far in general. I've been using this site off and on (mostly on for a while) since 2007 and it hasn't failed me yet.

Post-Workout day 1
I worked out! WOO go me! It's my birthday. (not really I'm just a big nerd.)
So I got off my couch, put in my contacts, threw on a sports bra, turned on some hip hop/dance music (some thanks to Miz Julie) and Wiirked (trademarked by Miz Julie as far as I know).
My workout:
3x regular hula hoop
1 min a piece counted
highest score like 52.
I have hips trust me, I just can't use them to hula. LOL I could never hula as a kid ever. but i love Hulu.com :) does that count?
6 mins of free run
Pretty much just consisted of me running around my house like a dumbass (okay it was pretty funny and confused the cats) and the occasional dancing. What can I say? Pitbull makes me go Krazy!
Then I did the Chair 2x (the pose not the lounger) and I did Rowing Squat 1x (for the combo!). I pretty much suck ass at Rowing Squat. Even though Amber made me do them everyday when I trained. I have realized I am not very good working what my Mama gave me.
So that counted for like I dunno 4 minutes or something.
After chair/squat I did free step for 10 minutes = 963 steps. I think the goal is 800 for 10 minutes so that's good I guess. It was really hard to find the beat to the music (since I had the Wii on mute and the music turned up). I had to keep finding 4 count songs or adapt other ones and even with the faster pace on the Wii Fit it's still hard. But I did it and I was super sweaty when done and I wanted to give up but had 6 more minutes until 30.
So I did my favorite Wii Fit activity (seriously) the Jack-knife Challenge. I have the trainer guy that kind of looks like Keanu back when he was in Bill and Ted. So I call him Keanu. And I like to kick Keanu's ass at Jack-knives. It gets my competitive spirit going beating even an animated trainer. So usually I can go for a long time but today I could only do 23 reps (gasp! I know usually I do like at least 30, I think my top was like 56 and I felt like I was going to hurl) but regardless I did them and I worked out and I'm proud of myself!
YAY!
I know I was hard on myself in the first blog but that is just what motivates me -- being hard on myself. It's like when trying to pump up myself I don't believe the lame motivational speeches or the 'You can do it!' but I hear it loud and clear when I tell myself the truth in the most harsh blunt way possible. So I don't really like hate myself. I just know I need to lose weight for health (okay and clothing) purposes. Really any motivation is appreciated.
One day done! WOO.

Let's get real and honest - real honest
Okay so this girl (that would be me) does NOT like to work out right now. I went from a fairly fit happy with myself 155 that had a trainer and could workout without passing out to a mental patient (literally) struggling with depression and then put on every psycho-med out there to a big, fat 183 pound blob that can't fit into her pants that were already a size 16. It's embarrassing. When I slept my love handles merge with my back fat and create this crease that hurts when it rolls together, I get winded doing basic things which makes me feel severely obese, I am constantly tired, my knees feel swollen all the time with all the weight they are holding same goes for my ankles. I can feel my body screaming out for help. I have to get motivated to work out. I have to get past these stupid excuses and just do it even though it's hard and I know it will be hard. I have done it before - got fit- so I know it is a possibility. I know that I CAN handle it mentally and physically and I know how great it feels being fit. I just have to get over the blah lazy and off my comfy couch. God, it is so comfy though. Anyway so I am really hoping this will help. Even if I have to add everyone to this blog to make fun of me to get me motivated.
My former trainer/friend Amber is hosting another class starting April 20 three days a week. I am going to join it. It will no doubt suck and kick my ass but Amber is amazing at what she does and if anyone can get me in shape again, it's the girl who helped me do it the first time.
I am also thinking about trying the couch to 5K again but ... not sure if I am a 'runner.' Guess there's no hurt in trying to be.
I also have a Wii fit for rainy days that I could commit to.
So with three options, I have no excuses.
So far here are my excuses and why they are ... well excuses.
1. I love my couch and my TiVo.
EXCUSE! YOUR COUCH AND TIVO WILL DO NOTHING BUT MAKE YOUR ASS FATTER. Couch and TiVo should be used as a reward.
2. I am already too fat so what is the point.
DO YOU WANT TO BE FATTER? DO YOU WANT TO FEEL LIKE MORE SHIT?! HOW DOES 200+ POUNDS SOUND TO YOU. YOUR BMI WILL BE LIKE 40 BY THEN. CANKLES.
3. I plan on having kids... so won't I just get fat anyway?
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GAIN AN ADDITIONAL 40 POUNDS OF BABY WEIGHT ONTO YOUR ALREADY FAT ASS?! AND IT'S PROVEN THAT MOMS WHO ARE LAZY/FAT BEFOREHAND DO NOT LOSE THE WEIGHT AS QUICKLY AFTER. SO HAVE FUN BEING THE FATTEST MOM ON THE PLAYGROUND WHO CAN'T PLAY WITH HER OWN KID.
4. I like food and don't want to restrict yourself.
YOU CAN STILL EAT. JUST DON'T EAT FOUR BOWLS OF CEREAL OR ONE SUPER HUGE BOWL OF CEREAL. JUST REPLACE CRAP WITH MORE VEGETABLES!!!!!
5. Ian is thin, I have no motivation around here.
YES, IAN IS THIN AND THAT ISN'T FAIR BUT NOT HIS FAULT. SOME PEOPLE ARE ALSO BORN NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD JUST STOP SHAVING YOUR LEGS. YOU ARE NOT IAN. YOU ARE YOU. AND YOU KNOW THAT EVEN THOUGH IAN IS THIN THAT DOESN'T MEAN HE DOESN'T SUPPORT YOU FULLY. YOU KNOW HE DOES.
6. I hate working out alone.
WELL TECHNICALLY EVEN THOUGH YOU THINK THE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND YOU DOESN'T MEAN THAT THERE ARE NOT A MILLION OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO FEEL THE WAY YOU DO. FIND THEM. THEY EXIST. MAYBE EVEN ON CRAIGSLIST.
So there. I just yelled at myself and canceled out all my excuses. OH WAIT I forgot a big one.
7. I went to work today and I'm tired/worked hard/had a bad day.
WHO GIVES A SHIT. SO JUST ADD FATTY WORKING A DESK JOB TO YOUR RESUME. JUST BECAUSE YOU WENT TO WORK DOESN'T ALLOW YOU TO JUST GIVE UP ON YOURSELF FATTY MC FATTY. GET OFF YOUR ASS AND GO MAKE IT SMALLER.
Okay I feel better. Thanks Jenaveive.
Now the question is... do I really feel motivated yet? Not really. I have more excuses. I'm cold. Wearing my glasses. Not wearing a bra. It's late and working out makes me more awake. I hate being sweaty. I hate the way my fat bounces. I am tired. I have a sinus infection and when I bounce my face hurts. I am getting a cavity so the bouncing makes my tooth throb. I want to relax and watch TV or a movie with Ian. I already ate dinner.
Maybe if I write them all down I will eventually run out of excuses. LOL
What number am I now?
8. I'm cold.
WORKING OUT MAKES YOU WARMER duh
9. Wearing my glasses.
SO GO PUT IN YOUR CONTACTS WHEN YOU GO UPSTAIRS TO PUT ON WORKOUT CLOTHES OR AT LEAST GET A SPORTS BRA.
10. Not wearing a bra.
UM SO GO PUT ONE ON ... WHEN YOU PUT IN YOUR CONTACTS. :)
11. It's late and working out makes me more awake.
AND TAKING A TWO HOUR NAP TODAY DIDN'T? IT'S A FRIDAY NIGHT. IT'S NOT LIKE YOU PLANNED ON GOING TO BED AT 10 P.M. ANYWAY. AND YOU TOOK A NAP! YOU'LL BE AWAKE ANYWAY LAZY ASS.
12. I hate being sweaty.
SWEAT IS FAT LEAVING YOUR BODY AND MAKING YOU THINNER. GET OVER IT.
13. I hate the way my fat bounces.
UM THIS ONE IS FAIRLY OBVIOUS. FAT BOUNCES BECAUSE WELL YOU ARE FAT. TO GET RID OF FAT BOUNCING YOU HAVE TO WORK OUT. GENIUS.
14. I am tired.
WELL GOOD THING WORKING OUT WAKES YOU UP THEN ISN'T IT. PS READ I TOOK A NAP. GET OVER IT.
15. I have a sinus infection and when I bounce my face hurts.
HMMMM I might have to consult Ian on this one and the cavity one. Because it is really painful... SO GO TAKE A TYLENOL AND GET OVER IT
16. I am getting a cavity so the bouncing makes my tooth throb.
SEE SINUS INFECTION
17. I want to relax and watch TV or a movie with Ian.
TV IS A REWARD. YOU DO NOT DESERVE TV YET.
18. I already ate dinner.
WELL LA-DI-DA GOOD FOR YOU. IT BETTER HAVE BEEN HEALTHY AND IT WAS PROBABLY A LONG TIME AGO SO... GO WORK OUT.
Okay. I think I am out of excuses. Surprisingly. So I am going to read this to Ian and send it to everyone and then go work out.
