2 Pounds in 2 days

I decided to write today before I work out, for two reasons, 1. I have a head ache and I am hoping the Excedrin will kick in. 2. I lost 2 pounds in 2 days doing this 7 day-cycle. I was so excited when I got on the scale this morning because I figured I would of stayed the same because I am sore this morning from squats and figured that I gained some in the muscle area. But NOPE! I had been stuck at the 199 mark for weeks doing what I usually do. I guess there really is a science and sense to actually eating.
I told Allan the other day that I felt like all I did was eat all day. He replied with a man comment! "Yes you did eat all day!" Thanks honey for making me feel like a piggy. I guess if you eat the right foods though you can eat all day.
Yesterday I did sit ups, push ups, and squats and I am sore from that today. I only have to do treadmill today and I am thankful for that. Tomorrow is my rest day and I am so looking forward to that. I am really looking forward to next weeks weigh in. If I keep up this weight loss I will be down at least 6 pounds by next Saturday. I shouldn't count my chickens before they hatch I know. But its exciting to think of me lighter and able to eat! I have been told before that you can't starve your self and I know that but its has been hard for me to get in the habit of when to eat and how much. I usually start the day with just a protein shake and then kinda forget about it until its late in the afternoon and then eat too much. Or even worse over eat at dinner.
I bought a pair of pants the other day because I thought that for sure I would be starting a new job by now. (But they have just been jacking me around) Anyway I bought them because I needed a pair of brown dress pants. When I looked at the size it said 18W. I thought to myself W means wide! I am so looking forward of being out of the W section of clothing. I know it means women but I know I am a women why can't they put something else. I don't know what it should be. We are all women (well those of us with a vagina anyway) why does there always have to be a label? My favorite is Woman's World! Just because we are the size of the world doesn't mean we want to be reminded!
I know there are so much more important things in this world to worry about that just my big ass. Like starving kids in Africa or homeless people without food or shelter. There are so many people out of work, like me. Life is hard but I want my ass to me hard too!
The girls and I watched "The Help" last night. I had seen it before but it was just as good the second time. I think its going to be one that I buy. It made me so thankful that I didn't live in those times. People can be so cruel! I know that there are people that are cruel like that still but at least its not tolerated anymore. I know I wouldn't be able to tolerate it at all. A person is a person no matter their race, religion, sexual orientation, or their size. I have been lucky that I don't think people look at me like "OMG look at that fat girl" I know there are so many people that suffer in their own skin. That lock themselves away from the world because they weigh 400 pounds or whatever their weight is. That makes me so sad when I read stories like that. I think its because I know how I feel in my skin and I have 61 pounds that I would like to loose and I can't imagine having to loose hundreds of pounds. I don't really know how I got on this other than I think we all need to put ourselves in other peoples shoes and see it from their perspective. Have some compation for people. Rather than judge. My favorite people are those people that judge then talk about the person behind their back and are nice to their faces. I love those people. Not really I know a few and sometimes its hard for me not to think bad thoughts about them like, I want to punch them in their faces. Especially when its me they are doing it too. Just be real and love people for who they are and if you don't like them don't be friends with them.
Anyway- Its been on my mind for a while and I am sure some of you reading this know the person or person's I am talking about. It doesn't really matter because it is what it is and they are who they are. I can't change it so I need to forget about it.
I am off to the treadmill. I most likely wont post tomorrow because its my free day. YEAH! Thank you to all of you that have made positive comments and are cheering me on! I love you all.
