Weight: 226.9 lbs. (Wii Fit Age: 25)
Activities: Burned 155 calories during 20-ish minutes on Day 1 Workout with EA Sports Active
Food: French Toast, Bacon, Diet Dr. Pepper, Salad with Ranch Dressing, Hummus and Pita, Chicken Pot Pie, Diet Dr. Pepper, Potato Chips and Parmesan Peppercorn Dip
So, I've been avoiding my Fatty/Fattia project out of fear and laziness. Mostly, I just want to sleep, you know?
My goal is to weigh 125 lbs. by Feb. 10, 2011, my 30th birthday. That means I have 505 days left to lose 101.9 lbs. (Technically, my 100 lbs. would be 126, but I like rounding it off to a pretty number.)
So, this means I have to lose about .2 lbs per day to make my goal. That's only 6 lbs. per month. I find that doable, although somewhat challenging.
My resolution this year was to lose 5 lbs. per month, but it's the 9th month of the year and I'm only down 8.1 lbs. total. That's less than a pound per month.
I got my "French Women Don't Get Fat" book, and I plan to start reading it ASAP. (School is cramping my reading-for-pleasure style, but I'm working on it.)
So, I leave this entry somewhat behind, but hopeful for the future. I will lose .2 lbs. tomorrow. Yes!

A few thoughts...
So, I blew off the detox around day 3.5, but I'm still working on my Fatty/Fattia goal of losing 100 lbs. by my 30th birthday. I don't really have a weight-related update tonight. This one is more...personal.
I've always had an unhealthy relationship to the males of my species. I have no idea why. I've always wanted the attention of boys, but I've also always been terrified of them. I was dumped around Independence Day of this year, and the irony is not lost on me. That was the conclusion of the longest, most successful relationship I'd ever had, but even as best as it was, it wasn't very good. I spent two and a half years in a mostly long-distance relationship with an older, unsuccessful man I didn't find particularly attractive or necessarily like. I spent so long being in a relationship with him because he was persistent. He told me I was pretty, he gave me his attention, and apparently, that's all it takes with me.
I tell this story not to be a bummer or complain about my taste in men, but to illustrate that I am incapable of having a normal romantic relationship. I have a diary from when I was a little girl, and although there is not much in it, there is an entry from when I was in 4th grade or so that I now find particularly troubling. I was about 10 years old, and it was the day before I church picnic, and as a little girl, I recall writing, and meaning very honestly, that I was going to try to be sexy the next day in an effort to catch the attention of the only boy my age that would be there. I don't remember much about what happened besides not getting the attention I wanted. I certainly didn't know how to be attractive, and braces, frizzy hair, and glasses weren't giving much help in that department.
Thinking back over my romantic history, limited as it is, I've always been a little bit off. I was the queen of unrequited love, and I always blamed it on my weight. I don't know, readers, if you're people who believe in God, but I do. And I believe that God has a plan for each of us that we don't always comprehend. I don't know the details of God's plan for me, but I'm pretty sure He allowed me to become fat to save me from my inability to deal with boys. I was always a boy-crazy girl. Not only in the "giggle with my friends about how they're so cute" kind of way, but in the "in high school I probably would have totally put out if someone had asked" kind of way. I think God gave me fat as a way to protect my innocence that I constantly tried to give away and my dignity that I didn't realize I was offering up on a platter. I don't know if I would have really been a teenaged slut because boys didn't pay attention to me in any sort of romantic way. As much as I was blessed with a few extra pounds of protection, I was also blessed with a quick wit and a sharp tongue. I think my attitude may have been as intimidating as my size, and now I see that it's okay.
I've always sort of thought in the back of my mind that solving my weight problems will solve my boy problems. I see now that not only is that not necessarily true, it's also not relevant to the idea of weight loss. I've been trying to lose weight for boys...any of them that would look at me if I got pretty enough. But that will never work. I'm resigned to the fact that I may never have the attention from men that I always wanted, and now I see that it's a good thing. The attention I wanted from men is unhealthy, and ultimately damaging to me, so now, I don't want that attention anymore. I know I'm not completely ugly, and I won't pretend like I don't enjoy being checked out or flirted with, but really, my satisfaction can't come from male attentions. It can't even come from being 100 pounds lighter. My satisfaction comes from finding out what God's plan for me is and getting on board with it. This isn't a new revelation for me, and I've been trying, albeit half-heartedly, to do it for some time.
The real sort of a-ha moment in all of this is that I am completely fine never forging a romantic relationship again. I'm not entitled to one. I don't deserve one. And most importantly, I don't need one to be who I'm supposed to be. I'm certainly not against it, but I've wasted a large number of my 28 years on this earth waiting around to start my life because I didn't have it. No more waiting. I'm going to be who I'm meant to become, and I really hope that person is 100 lbs. less than me. The truth is, I may never get skinny, but I have got to get healthy, and for the right reasons. Not because I want attention, not because I want a man, and not because I want to fit into the cutest new clothes in the stores. I need to do this because I can't live the life I 'm supposed to live when I'm trapped inside a body I've been killing very slowly with insane amounts of food and none amounts of exercise.
So, my Fatty/Fattia project lives on, although I may rename it sometime soon. Turning 30 will not be terrible, even if I do it alone. I'll get one of those Oprah wagons loaded up with 100 pounds of lard and thank God I no longer know what it's like to carry that around in my arteries and arm flab. Today is a good day, and tomorrow looks to be even better!

Detox Day 3
Weight: 223.7
Activities: Trying to stay awake...not easy. I've been feeling really weak and crappy.
Food: banana, peach, plum, 2 arby's jr. sandwiches, brown rice and black beans, then I went nuts and had a Diet Dr. Pepper and 2 cookies
So, this detox/cleanse sucks. I feel weak and sleepy all day. Today I got the caffeine headache I've been dreading, and after a couple hours, I just couldn't take it anymore. So, that explains the caffeine.
I'm giving up on the diet part of the detox, but I will still do my best to make good food choices. I'm gonna keep eating fruit, and focus on smaller portions, but I need protein...and energy to work out.
Then, I have to work out. That will require a plan.
On the plus side, my headache is almost completely gone with less than half a can of DDP required. I don't like being caffeine-dependent, but I'm working on cutting down.
Today, being fat doesn't seem like such a bad choice. I'm still going to be 126 by 2/10/11. That's still my goal. But today, I don't hate myself...and that's a good step.
Keep checking in reader(s). Things are about to heat up...I can feel it.

Detox Day 2
Weight: 223 (OMG!)
Activities: attempting to stay awake (I think the lack of caffeine is affecting me)
Food: banana, 3 Arby's Jr. sandwiches...I'll probably eat some fruit tonight.
So, today, I was sleepy, unproductive, and foggy all day. I am not happy with this detox/cleanse, hence the Arby's. What I really wanted was Whataburger, though, so I think it was a better choice...a little.
I did lose about 3 pounds, though. So, I guess I'll try to stick some more. I really want a Diet Dr. Pepper, though. I will absolutely finish all the pills and powders, but I may not stick to the suggested diet. I'll be sure to eat more fruit and only make one bad choice per day. I'm going to try to refrain from caffeine until Saturday when I have to stay awake on the road.
We'll see how it goes. I was totally defeated and ready to give up on the detox/cleanse until I weighed in today. I guess I just don't like feeling so wimpy. And I don't like eating food I'm not in the mood for...prescribed diets make me unhappy.
I'm still determined to loose 97 more pounds by 2/10/11.
Edit: I weighed myself again about the same time as last night, my my weight is actually up to 224.5. So, I'm going to say I only lost 1.5 pounds, but that's okay.

The Fatty/Fattia Project.
So, I've had this goal in mind for a while, and last night I saw the movie Julie & Julia, so my mind is in overdrive. I've been "blogging" (on and off, but mostly off) for a while, and I've been trying to lose weight (on and off, but mostly off).
So, I've decided that the deadline is what I'm missing. So, here is my plan. I will lose 100 lbs. by the time I turn 30. That means by February 10, 2011, I should be down to an appropriate and healthy weight for my height. I will do this through diet and exercise, no gimmicks, no tricks, no drugs, no starving!
So, today, I weigh 226 pounds. That's 9 pounds less than when I started this blog 2 years ago. That means I need to lose a lot more weight in a lot less time, but I think I can make it happen.
First steps, I will finish this 7-day detox/cleanse, although I may not stick 100% to the recommended diet. I will take the pills (liver cleanse, kidney cleanse, etc.) and drink the powders. They will be my last "drugs" in this process. Next, I will read the book "French Women Don't Get Fat." I want to eat bread and cheese, and I want to do it the right way, so that I can enjoy life but not slowly kill myself in the process.
It's 9:18 p.m., and it's 97 degrees outside. This heat is making me feel every pound of fat that I carry around, and I am officially going to fix it.
Stay tuned, reader(s), it's going to be a long 548 days. (I'll double-check that count to make sure...)

Detox/Cleanse Day 1
Weight: Not sure yet, I'll check in a few.
Activities: None, but I started my detox/cleanse
Food: NO CAFFEINE!! rice cake, raspberries, almonds, banana, nectarine...so far
So, I'm starting this detox/cleanse, and I'm already tempted to cheat. On the plus side, I have a crap-ton of fruit to help me try to stay on track. I haven't eaten anything substantial yet today, but I think I'm going to have some salad and/or brown rice and black beans.
I'm not sure how I'll stick with the diet part of this, but I'll be faithful to the pills and powders.

Weight: No clue.
Activities: None.
Food: Leftover Mexican food, a slim jim, some almond m&m's, and whatever I scrounge up for dinner.
So, I seriously need to get back to caring about my health. I read the blog of a Twitter friend and I was re-inspired. I will begin making strides in the right direction with my dinner choice tonight.

EA Sports Active Day!!
Weight:231 lbs (BMI 40.94, Wii FIt Age29)
Activities:EA Sports Active for 25 minutes or so, burned 217.9 calories
Food: Big fail. Thundercloud Club Sandwich, 3 packages of 100 Calorie almonds, 2 diet Dr. Peppers, too much Popeye's fried chicken and 2 biscuits, and a Pepsi. So far...but it's already 8:30, so I think after a Crystal Light popsicle and a few glasses of water, I'm going to bed anyway.
So, this EA Sports thing is gonna kick my ass. I'm looking forward to that. I'm honestly surprised the leg thing fit around my fat thigh. I'm feeling good, despite gaining back everything I walked off the other day.
I feel like I'm making progress, even if it's not evident on the scale...yet. On a personal, kind of gross, and inquisitive note, I'm wondering how, when you burn fat, it leaves your body. More bluntly, will my poops be different if I'm losing weight?
That's gross to think about, but I'm curious. Anyway, I'm off to drink water.

Do Sundays count?
Weight: 229.5 lbs. (BMI 40.66, Wii Fit Age 27)
Activities: 17 minutes on Wii Fit, all balance games
Food: fail...leftovers from Texas Roadhouse (2 rolls with butter, 1/4 piece of chicken fried chicken with a little white gravy, 8-10 loaded french fries with bacon and cheese a few dipped in ranch dressing) and I'm about to go out to eat dinner with my brother.
My weight might be a fluke because I may have counted my clothes as too heavy. But, seeing progress is good, so I'll take it.
I'm feeling good, and I'm working on staying positive. It's hard to stay focused on the good food choices thing because I'm going to Disney World in a few days, and it's completely out the window then. On the plus side, I'll be walking the parks a whole lot, so hopefully it will even out.
I'm sure some people (the boy) are getting tired of me talking about this all the time. But, it's important to me, so it needs to be important to those around me, or they don't need to be around me anymore. I think once I've got some solid habits formed, I won't need to talk about it as much, but for the time being, I need to be at least a little obsessed so that I can stay on top of making healthy choices.
Ultimately, I'm glad I am watching what I eat and trying to be more active. I may never get the figure that I want, but I need to be more healthy, and this is the way to do it.
So far, I'm way behind on my 5 lbs. per month goal, but with the right amount of work and proper food choices, I may still reach 60 lbs. by the end of the year. Truthfully, though, as long as I end the year lighter than I started, I'm calling it a win. If I can be <200 even better. If I really do lose 60 lbs, that just leaves 40 to lose the next year. If I could be my goal weight (125ish) by the time I'm 30, that would be amazing. I'd like to start my 30s less like Bridget Jones and more like...someone who isn't a mess. :)

16.5.09
Weight: 230.6 lbs (BMI 40.86, Wii Fit Age 25)
Activities: 31 min. on Wii Fit (mostly aerobics, then yoga, some strength training and balance games, but that included 2 complete "workouts" where I combined exercises like it recommended)
Food: TGI Fridays (fail) Potato skins (no onion or sour cream) and 2 Jack Sliders things. 1 glass of Coke, Diet Dr. Pepper

I'm realizing that if I have to explain my workout that much, I'm overcompensating for under-working out.
But, some is better than none, so that's my day today. On the plus side, I'm down 1.5 lbs from my last weigh-in. I think it was the park walking. And, aside from the TGI Friday's, I've been waaaay more careful about what I eat.
I'm feeling good anyway. I was trying on clothes yesterday and realized I no longer have knees. I just have clumps of flesh where my legs used to be. I'm working on that for sure too.
Oh, also, my Wii Fit called me Amber today, claiming it forgot my name because I haven't been on it in 18 days. Lame sauce, for real.

Scared to death (of death)
Weight: 235? (haven't weighed yet...I'll update when I do)
Activities: walked 5 miles around Town Lake
Food: tilapia with butter and herbs (the box says 80 calories), 1/2 roma tomato sliced with sea salt, 2 white cheddar rice cakes (super good!!), diet dr. pepper

So, today, I walked 5 miles with my friends, and by the end, my extremities were totally numb. From my wrists to my fingertips, I was totally swollen. In fact, part of the time I walked, my fingertips were purple. The 3 outside toes on each foot went numb along with my cheeks, lips, and nose. Ultimately, I finished my walk and now I'm back to normal, but I have to say, I was scared.
I really didn't realize I was that out of shape. So, I need to really do all the things I've been planning to do for so long. I'm going to make better food choices, and I'm going to be more active. If not, this will eventually kill me. I'm not going out like that.
4.1.09
Since I didn't blog anything yesterday...
Weight: 235 but my Wii Fit says 177 (I think it's carpet related.)
Activities: Some Wii Fit
Food: 1/3 frozen pizza, lots of mozzarella bites with sauce, Buffalo Wild Wings stuff
And I'm waiting on my brother...
I think I'm getting fatter...or I'm just feeling really lethargic. Bad sign. Must resist!!

I think I'm getting fatter...or I'm just feeling really lethargic. Bad sign. Must resist!!
1.1.09
So, I have clearly done nothing...
Weight: 235 lbs. (I think)
Activities: sat at computer...lame
Food: Half a ham swiss and cheddar panini from Tom Thumb, 2 bags of pita chips (130 calories each), and 1 can of diet Dr. Pepper (so far...it's only 4 p.m.)
It is the start of a new year, and hopefully some new habits.
For Christmas I got a Nintendo Wii and Wii Fit. I'm hoping I'll take full advantage of both and become more active. In addition, I got a sweet Sonicare toothbrush. I know it sounds silly, but somehow, I think having cleaner teeth will help me eat less or be healthier at least.
My resolution for 2009? Lose 60 pounds. That's only 5 per month. I think I can do it. I will do my best to journal here daily with my progress or not progress. Maybe by 2010, I can re-title Confessions of a Happier Formerly-Fat Girl.
Here's hoping!
