My goal isn't to stress or go all hardcore diet because that's not me and if I try that, it won't work. I'd like to set some realistic goals for myself:
- Have breakfast. I often don't eat until 2 in the afternoon, sometimes later if I have a photo shoot.
- Use my app to track what I'm eating and stay within my "points", which is a knockoff of Weight Watchers.
- Eat smaller portions. Order kid size meals when I'm out, use salad plates for dinner.
- One soda a day. My friend Chance is doing one a week and that's just crazy talk. Oh and don't tell me diet because that's just disgusting. You will never convince me Coke Zero or Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi tastes the same.
- Workout. I am not joining a gym because I won't go. I have lots of workout videos, so now it's about actually doing them. So simple!
- Try not to eat anything heavy past 8PM.
- Drink a glass of water a day. I was on a water kick hardcore there for a while. I need to make it a point to do at least a glass a day, probably more.
Good luck my friend. I think you look great (or at least you did in your recent family pictures) but still I feel you. And think, it could be worse. By the time I have this baby I will have 80 pounds to loose. 20 to 30 of those should just fall right off after having the baby, but that will still leave me with about 50 pounds to go. 10 pounds for each baby I have giving birth too. so fun :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for saying this!! I've only got one more month until I'm supposed to have lost the weight I gained while pregnant and I'm 100% sure it's not going to happen. I'm pretty depressed about it. I didn't have a problem losing weight after Rachel, but I'm really struggling this time. I've gotta look hot for OBX in July!
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you!
You always look great Kelli! I always get huge with my babies, so I still have a ways to go, but I've been doing the itrack bites app on my phone which is the weight watchers program- is that the app you're doing?? If you are diligent with tracking points no matter what u eat u will lose your weight:) it's the only diet that I can stick to and yes, I've successfully lost weight with it and kept it off... that is until I get pregnant;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Molly! I have been using "Value Diary", but I will have to check out your app. I may like that one better. I haven't been diligent about it since I decided it was pointless during the holidays. Having a baby in the winter and during the holidays and then having to lose the baby weight while stick inside is just cruel! LOL
ReplyDeleteI know you have done amazing things in weight loss so I will be coming to pick your brain or get pointers!
I dont think it will ever be accurate to put "fat" in a sentence w/ you. I was shocked to read your goal is 1 class of water a day. Girl you need to be drinking a lot more than 1 glass. Try drinking a juice sized glass of water before you eat anything. That should be a good start to getting you drinking more water. Good luck.
