ok...so im gaining weight again and am up to

135lbsChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

stress causes me to not eat which in turn slows down my metabloislm immensley.....

i was doing great and went down to 125. that was my goal...
This past month and a half, bc of family situations, i ballooned to a hefty 135

Id like to be around 120-125 by october 19, my wedding....

I saw a nutritionist a few weeks back so i have what i need to do food wise, BUT I NEED KICK *** EXERCISE ROUTINES!!!!!

Any ideas?
I usually jog 4 miles a few days a week..But thats it..i completely slacked off on weight training.

thanks!

i love kickboxing. it really gets my energy going. And the results are fabulous.

also, i love to rollerblade. u still have a month or so left, why dont u try that? it is a good substitute (if not better) than jogging.

Good lUCK!!!!

I'm not exercising yetChat Icon but I would continue with the jogging.

In the past, the only thing that made me drop weight faster than jogging was breastfeeding (which you probably shouldn't do before your wedding anyway).Chat Icon

Re: ok...so im gaining weight again and am up to

Although I'm at a whole lot more than 135...I've been gaining weight soo much because of stress, feeling sick and boredom....Everyone around me can't eat if they are stressed or not feeling well, but I totally do the opposite and not to mention I have the slowest metabolism that was ever created!!!! I'm really trying to eat better and less (smaller portions) and trying to exercise....It's really hard...really really hard, but don't give up...I know I'm trying not to give up and keep going!!Chat Icon

I think it depends on how tall you are... 135 for someone who is 5 feet is definitely different than if you are say, 5' 7"...

Jess, just stay with the diet and exercise, drink a lot of water and take vitamins...

Make sure you are eating like 1200 to 1300 calories a day... all balanced and healthy meals-- preferably more natural foods (not processed), and every 3 to 4 hours...

Also, keep a food and work out journal to keep you honest!

YES! for me it is. You dont know my height, my health issues, or what i consider a healthy weight for me...I find the confused emoticons truly unnecessary...

Just because i'm 135 and not 235 doesnt mean im not struggling and in need of advice like everyone else.I posted my weight(which i thought was a big step for me) bc i wanted to put it out there about how much i yo-yo and how much i need to lose...

i came to this board for support like other girls who came to this board and posted their true weights.I just found those 2 posts unnecessary and dont even feel like posting on diet and fitness anymore

Awwwe Jessica don't let that affect you Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I myself have A LOT more weight to lose than you do, but I definitely empathize. Whenever you gain ANY amount of weight you feel uncomfortable, in your clothes, how you feel, your self esteem etc.

Good for you for wanting to lose it now before you have more to lose Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

It sounds like you're exercising enough...how is your diet?

ETS: If you are following your nutritionists guildelines for eating, maybe your body has gotten used to the running...you may just have to switch up your exercise routine - just stick with it and you'll see results!!

Re: ok...so im gaining weight again and am up to

You are being way too sensitive. I think my comment was justified because you write "a hefty 135" and maybe I take offense to that. I would never ever write a weight as being hefty because, well, all of us are trying to lose weight right? And many of us are over that weight and the comment just seemed poorly worded.

If you had written you didn't feel comfortable b/c that is a heavier weight for your frame or height it would have come across differently.

I strive to be 135 which is perfect for me. Guess I just read the word hefty and got a little miffed. Sorry you took offense.

Re: ok...so im gaining weight again and am up to

I have started alternating between the stepper and jogging. Even though the stepper posts a lower number of calories than the other machines it really seems to help.

Oh, I used to really lean on it because I was afraid I would fall off, but I've just been putting my hands on my hips and going a little slower and I get a way better workout.

I joined weight watchers to lose 6 pounds. I know how you feel. I think the difference is going to lie in little tweaks you can make.

I have a greater sense of control since I joined and I am really learning about right kinds of choices and where little pitfalls are in what I normally eat.

HTH!! Hang in there!
