I have 11 weeks to lose 20lbs. Help!!
| Mon, 03-06-2006 - 2:29pm |
Okay ladies, it's semi-official. I am getting married in about 11 weeks. I sooooo want to lose about 20lbs.
I soooo need help on how to do this. I hope bf will be okay with me running more on the weekends, because I need to exercise.
So, what do I need to do, to lose that much weight? I swear, I'm going to do this. I refuse to weigh this much when I say "I do". I REFUSE!!!
I have to kick this into overdrive, without driving myself into the ground. I know I can't just jump into this, but at the same time, I also know I need to get the ball rolling, big time.
Any suggestions? Let's see. Do cardio (30-60mins/day???? yikes). Do weights (which will help burn faster). Eat less calories. Am I missing anythign to get this done....besides starving?

I know I'm a little late on this thread... and if I didn't already say congratulations, CONGRATULATIONS!!
Oh I know it's going to be a very fast journey. with school, I talked to the prof, I"m going to have to go on an accelerated schedule so I can take the final prior to leaving on the honeymoon. :) So, even worse. And I have another class that starts next month, I'm thinking of talking to the prof NOW, cuz who knows what'll happen then. yikes! So much to do.
Budget, moving, planning, buying, losing weight, school. Seems like this should be a no-brainer, huh? lol.
Oh, good one, cutting out carbs. I think I need to do that a lot. However, i seem to love my sandwiches for lunch, so maybe tues/thur i can choose other things when i eat out, and make better choices on the weekend. hmmmmm...........
thanks for that tidbit. working on the water. and boy, i'm sleeping well now.....now that i'm working out again. :) zzzzzzzzzzz sound asleep. nice.
Don't you hate tickers? Well, here's mine:
Thanks. Gawd that seems like a lot. But you're right. That's the only way. Eat less, burn more. I wrote this in my journal, but i'm posting this for everyone to see, in case I kick the bucket. lol.
I am going to try a weight-loss supplement. I don't usually try them because they make me jittery and my heart rate is already high when i exercise, I don't need to keel over. KWIM?
So, i ordered total lean by gnc. i think it's gnc. lol.

I figured, maybe it'll help me boost things. get things moving. something to get me losing weight, kinda fast, and then me working out too. I dont' really want to lose 20lbs. i mean, it'd be great, but i'd like to lose at least 15. :) so, i figured, give me some help. and if i do everythign else pretty darn good (food, exercise), i should lose the 20 i'm hoping for assuming that stuff works and doesn't kill me.
I'll keep eveyrone posted. thanks for all the suggestions. they've all been wonderful. and i'm trying to do all of them, without overloading myself too.

Okay Cher, that looks interesting, it seems to just be mostly caffeine and no ephedra, which is a good thing.
