MISSING

Anyone seen 18 pounds lying around?

BECAUSE I TOTALLY LOST IT.

woop woop woop woop.

I can wear outfits I never thought possible.

This is exciting for me.

Consider this the mid-year new years resolution/fitness/weight loss checkpoint blog.

How're you doing?

Tell me your secrets of weight loss!

ofthecoast on Jul 15 '11 at 5:45pm

1. Smaller portion sizes
2. less cheese
3. "If you want to eat whatever you want whenever you want to eat it, you have to go to the gym" - My boyfriend
4. 30 minutes of cardio on the elliptical every time I go to the gym
5. try to go to the gym at least 3 times a week

it was surprisingly easy, actually

WOAH BBGRL WHO YOU RUNNI'N FROM?

SuperRyan on Jul 15 '11 at 5:49pm

I'm down with all of those except #2

ofthecoast on Jul 15 '11 at 5:53pm

I know. #2 was hard at first. I gave up cheese completely for 40 days, and lost 11lbs, and then re-introduced cheese to my diet, but I just don't buy as much/as often. And I eat more goat cheese and less cheddar cheese now.

And fat, omair. I am running from fat.

2. less cheese

dealbreaker.

YEAHYEAHYEAH GO KELSI!

pyr4lis on Jul 15 '11 at 6:00pm

awww congrats! woohoo!! You should post some pictures of cute things you're happy you can wear! I'm down about 20lbs from last year myself and it's sooooooo hard. I hate going to the gym. I'd like to drop another 15-20lbs though.

here's a song for you

GET IT? THIN

Chipmnk on Jul 15 '11 at 6:04pm

I've been working out, trying to get a sexy body. It's tough because the layer of fat on my stomach is taking its time leaving, even with 3-4 days of workout a week and some dieting for the past month.

And love handles. I don't even need them! Why are they there!

courtney pie on Jul 15 '11 at 6:07pm

win! since Oct last year I lost 20lbs.

I think my 20 took you 18 out dancing.

jublin on Jul 15 '11 at 6:22pm

i think both your 20 and kelsi's 18 decided to go to a party in my biceps.

*flex flex flex*

ofthecoast on Jul 15 '11 at 6:24pm

It takes longer than a month, Alvin. I lost my 18 in 6.5 months, so it's a slow process for sure, but it's so freaking worth it.

I hate going to the gym too, Lori, but I know it's just something I need to do if I want to keep eating the food I love, so I do it. Shaun and I try to go together every once in a while, too, and he is super motivating/encouraging so that helps.

And woop woop to 20lbs, CP! Way to go!

ofthecoast on Jul 15 '11 at 6:25pm

hahahah, Jubs. Have you been hanging out on muscle beach?

Twiggyhall on Jul 15 '11 at 6:31pm

Great jorb, Miss Kelsi!!

And everybody else who has lost :)

I have lost about 60 (give or take - it always fluctuates a bit) and while I'm happy with that, I still would like to lose about 30-40.

AND I need to get a tummy tuck and my arms fixed *big time* I have a ton of loose skin that just won't snap back, so to speak. :/

courtney pie on Jul 15 '11 at 6:31pm

sexy!

courtney pie on Jul 15 '11 at 6:32pm

sexy = party on Jubs arms but also works for Jen's 60!

Chipmnk on Jul 15 '11 at 6:34pm

Word. I'm not really too stressed about it though. I still look thin regardless of what I do.

And I get really bored at the gym. Even doing everything right, feeling the burn and ache, I just get so bored with it all.

ofthecoast on Jul 15 '11 at 6:35pm

woowoowoo! 60lbs! That's awesome! I'm shooting to lose another 10. I hope most of it comes off my boobs, too. That would be radical.

iPear on Jul 15 '11 at 6:35pm

GIRL YOU'RE SO PREMIEUM WHERE CAN WE GET MORE

nickv47 on Jul 15 '11 at 6:36pm

thumbs up.

ofthecoast on Jul 15 '11 at 6:37pm

the gym is definitely not something i enjoy at all, but it was recently presented to me that it's not really about something you enjoy, it's just about doing something that you know is good for you. Like flossing your teeth or hanging up your clothes. Those aren't things I find stimulating, but they are things that need to happen. So is going to the gym. When you start to see it like that, it becomes less of a chore and more of a part of the routine of your life.

Twiggyhall on Jul 15 '11 at 6:39pm

True dat!!!

And thanks, Missus & Kelsi - it was hard work, as I'm sure you both can appreciate! :)

Steve The Great on Jul 15 '11 at 6:46pm

fuck yah!

ofthecoast on Jul 15 '11 at 6:47pm

but it feels so good! Like, everytime I put on a shirt that used to look nice, I'm like wtf is this, baggy bag? And then I get to go shopping. And I LOVE shopping.

Kookaberry on Jul 15 '11 at 9:58pm

I hate the treadmill so much but I like running out in real life with friends. My friends are all stupidly active so hanging out involves throwing a medicine ball around or signing up for a 10k run. I tell you, it makes it a lot easier if you have people to exercise with. Do you go to the gym with your boyfriend? It is a chore, but you can definitely make it a fun one!

ofthecoast on Jul 18 '11 at 12:50pm

I agree, Amy. I'd much rather play a game of ultimate frisbee or something than run on a treadmill. I actually avoid the treadmill entirely, and do my cardio on an elliptical trainer. The movement is more natural, I find, and because it incorporates your arms, it's similar to hiking with poles, which is something Shaun and I are getting into.

I do go the gym with Shaun once in a while, and he is super motivating/encouraging/helpful. He explains the exercises to me so that I know what muscles I'm really working on, and makes sure I'm doing them properly so that when I go alone, I don't feel overwhlemed and just go home, because I totally used to do that.

mike bautista on Jul 18 '11 at 1:32pm

woopwoop!

I've been getting fat and it's not cool ;0;

aNonnymouse on Jul 18 '11 at 1:40pm

Yeah, I've been gaining weight too. Slowly, but it's finally starting to show. Congratulations, though. That's awesome :D

Chipmnk on Jul 18 '11 at 1:58pm

I hate the treadmill. I usually end up biking and then imagining I've just killed a guy and I'm biking from the cops.

i the past year and a half I have lost 65 lbs. so unhealthily (fuck you diabetes) and some from being on a thyroid medication which has given me back a metabolism. Im currently okay with what i weigh but I know I could still use like ten pounds less of me. I need to make myself exercise but i also need to find time for it as well. an hour and a half commute to work every day kinda kills everything

mike bautista on Jul 24 '11 at 3:55am

Wow Alvin, get a lifeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~
