Katie's Weight Loss Journey

This past week I lost 3 pounds bringing my total weight loss to 49 pounds. I was really hoping for a 4 pound weight loss to make my overall weight loss at 50 pounds but 3 will do! I still have a long way to go but I am getting there!

I know I’ve done this before but I always have people asking me for people to follow who have a long way to go or know how it feels.

I was 205 now 162 ! 

Does anyone know if jogging works out your abs? I have been trying to condition myself to jog and my abs are sore every time! Answers anyone? 

I often get told I have a beautiful face. I myself don’t deny that I have a good looking face but I still feel inadequate. I often get rejected because of the way my body looks. It’s kind of depressing. A guy once told me he wasn’t physically attracted to me. This wasn’t too long ago either. It pissed me off of course because I know that if I were 90 pounds or so lighter he would be physically attracted to me because I know that I am not ugly. I know it’s a preference but it is also shallow. I feel as though when I get down to my UGW that I am going to have some serious trust issues in people. When I start dating it’s always going to be in the back of my head “Well, he wouldn’t be attracted to me if I were heavier so how do I know if he’s genuinely attracted to me for who I am and not just what I look like. That is one thing that most worries me. But anyway, I think it’s kind of twisted but this rejection is what motivates me. It’s almost as if I want people to constantly reject me and shun me for the way I physically look so I will push myself harder. When that guy told me he wasn’t attracted to me it just made me push myself harder that day in the gym. I was thinking “Well, after I lose my weight then you’ll be saying differently.” Then I want to say to all those that rejected me for the way I look “Screw you! Look at me now!!” and then I want to silently thank them because if it weren’t for their rejection I wouldn’t have pushed myself harder.  

sweet-lil-something asked: Ok, I also would like to tell you that you are amazing! I was looking at some of your posts and you seem to have a lot of motivation to lose weight. Keep up that positive attitude. You will have your good days, bad days, and days you may feel like giving up on yourself. I say this because I have been there and am still there. Last week I weighed in at 258 pounds. My heaviest was 337 pounds. I still have a ways to go but I know I can do it! So can you! Keep up the great work!

Thank you so much! I appreciate it! Congrats on your weight loss as well! So sorry it took me so long to reply back. 

So I have just been lazy and not been on here. I went home for about a week and a half and kinda ate crappy the last 5 days I was there and then I went back to my other home and continued to eat crappy for the next 3 days. Today was my start over day. Luckily I didn’t gain any weight from the whole week of not eating right and non exercising. Today I started back and went to work out. Ahhh, it felt so good to get back into the gym. The endorphin rush was amazing! I’m glad I’m back in the saddle!

Well I am trying to start jogging. Not going to lie, weighing in at 269 pounds it’s very hard, especially on my shins. But alas I push onward on this journey to lose weight and jog through the hurt. What gets me through the hurt you might ask? Dubstep music! I cannot tell you how much it pumps me up. When I first start jogging all I want to do is quit! And then the music gets going and all I want to do is find my feet going along with the beat of the music! The music definitely pushes me through the hurt of the jogging, and when I finally do decided to start walking again I get that release of endorphin’s and it feels AMAZING! Now all I need is for the shin splints to go away so I can continue jogging!
