Today is full of awesomeness. Someone who doesn’t know I’ve been trying to lose just noticed my weight loss. It’s so real this time guys. It’s just…different than any other time I’ve ever tried. This is it for reals.

Since I’ve really started trying and a couple of my girlfriends have started coming over I’ve gone from 232 to 216. Stoked. Onederland is mine by the 4th of July.

Oh snap. My goal for this week was to weigh in on Monday at 217. Weighed in this morning at 215.8. Woooot!!! Not setting a new goal except to make sure that’s still my weight Mon. I fluctuate so badly that it takes a couple days to see if it’s a real loss.

I haven’t lost any more weight, just yet, but I still weigh the same as a couple days ago. I’m stoked about that because it means my plateau is really broken and that was a real weightloss! I feel like I can do anything right now.

I’m going to New Mexico in August. I only get to go down there every couple years and the last time I was there, I got more ‘Holy Cow, Kati BLEW UP’ comments or ‘Wow, you’ve really gained weight’. Old people just don’t have filters. This time I intend to hear nothing but, ‘Wow Kati, you look fantastic!’ Woot!

Long post where I over analyze why I'm fat

Sat, 04 May 2013 14:29:51 -0400

Been reading a lot about the emotional changes you need to make to make weight loss a permanent lifestyle change instead of a quick poundage loss followed by a gain because you’ve been restricting yourself too much for too long. I went back into my past and started dissecting times when my self esteem first started getting bad.

I was young. Too young. I was raised by a (wonderfully loving and caring) grandmother who was herself raised in a time when ‘pinch an inch’ was considered fat. She instilled that in me early, keeping a close eye on what I ate and telling me I couldn’t have seconds because there were too many calories and or fat in whatever I wanted. She paraded me in beauty pageants and in the next moment was trying to perm my hair and change who I was because I didn’t readily fit that mold of perfection that she thought I should.

I moved out of my grandparents house and back in with my (very free, open, not restrictive) mother when I was 13 and my whole view on life changed. Not just with food, but everything I did was done ‘because I could’. Because I can, became my new mantra. I had all the food I could eat, I started skipping going for walks and exercising, because I could. I was no longer under that ever scrutinizing watch of my grandmother and I went crazy.

I, of course, started gaining weight and a few years later, after I’d graduated high school, I moved back down to my grandmothers neck of the woods and was harshly critisized by not only her, but neighbors and friends. I drowned my sorrows in food, because I could. I’m that hard headed that to get back at them for making me feel fat, I ate.

I’m not putting blame for my weight on anyone, but myself. I ate everything I did and I settled into a lazy life. I’m just analyzing my past and some pretty deep hurts and feelings and trying to find out why I continuously sabotage myself.

Because I can.

I almost feel like if I lose weight and get in shape, they win. Holy hell I’m more fucked up than originally anticipated.

losing-every-extra-pound:

Sexy Arms in 6 Weeks
If you’re just starting out, aim for two sets of 8 to 12 reps of the heaviest weight you can handle for each exercise. Looking for more of a challenge? Shoot for two sets of 15 to 25 reps per exercise.

Bent-Over Row Step I
Primary muscles worked: lats, back extensors, rhomboids, rear shoulders, biceps, core. Stand with a slight bend at the knees, holding the weights at your sides. Lean over, extending your chest while reaching your hips back. Allow your arms to hang straight down toward the floor with your palms facing your thighs.

Bent-Over Row Step II
Looking forward at the ground (not up), pull your elbows up and rotate your hands until your palms are nearly touching your upper rib cage and your elbows point toward the ceiling. Lower the weights to the starting position with control. Repeat.
tip: Keep your belly button pulled in toward your spine to engage your core and protect your lower back.

Upright Row Step I
Primary muscles worked: shoulders, upper back, biceps.
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart with the weights hanging down in front of your body, their ends touching.

Upright Row Step II
Raise your upper arms, leading with your elbows while bringing the weights up the front of your body as if you were tracing an imaginary midpoint, stopping when your elbows become level with your shoulders. Lower the weights back to the starting position.
tip: Keep your chin up and your belly button tucked in.

Chest Press on Ball Step I
Primary muscles worked: chest, front of shoulders, triceps. Sit on a ball and walk out so that your head and shoulder blades are resting on the ball. Lift your hips by contracting your glute muscles to make a bridge. (Your feet should be shoulder-width apart and below your knees to give you stable support.)

Chest Press on Ball Step II
Bring the dumbbells to your shoulders. Then extend your arms over your chest and bring the dumbbells together to make a triangle over your chest. Lower the weights back to the starting position and repeat.
tip: You will need to engage your core throughout the exercise to avoid falling off the ball.

Overhead Press on Ball Step I
Primary muscles worked: shoulders, upper back, triceps. Sit on an exercise ball with your belly button pulled toward the spine. Hold the weights in front of your shoulders, your palms facing in.

Overhead Press on Ball Step II
Push the weights up until your arms are extended. When your arms are extended, they should be slightly in front of you rather than directly overhead. Lower the weights to the starting position and repeat.
tip: Keep your chin lifted slightly and your core stable.
