Start Weight:(10 Jul 10) 272.6 lb
Current Weight:(22 Apr 13) 224.8 lb
Goal Weight:150.0 lb
following: My New Lifestyle
performance: gaining 0.6 lb a week

I've been a FatSecret member since July 10, 2010.

Even after losing approximately 90lbs, I find myself back here because I regained most of the weight back.
I never thought that after having so much determination to accomplish such a loss I would sabotage all my hard work.

My lifestyle has changed quite a bit since I first started out, and I used it as a cruch to stop my progress and, in fact, relapse.

Being back here once again, I am not 'starting over', but continuing.
I could completely just wipe the slate clean (as far as my starting weight), but then I wouldn't feel like I'm being accountable for the time I spent MIA from here.

As my 3rd anniversary approaches, I hope to see some significant changes from this moment in time. (April 2, 2013)
I want to know I can make myself a priority... no matter what happens in my life.
For me, it's about being fit and healthy - not being skinny.
I want to feel confident, powerful, independent, and most of all, happy.

As I did previously, I'm posting some nutritional information here for myself, seeing as how I'd like to have something to refer to every time I come here, but I am taking this from a box of organic cereal.

This is Why You're Fat
OMG - I'm SO going to have to bookmark that website! That food is atrocious!!! I can't believe it's even called food! Most of it made me sick in my throat just looking at it! People actually eat this? EW!!!
Don't forget - before the deep-fried butter, there was a cooking show on years ago called 'Two Fat Ladies'. And you wonder why the show was called that? Man, you should've seen the stuff they made. A pound of butter here, grease there, bacon AND bacon fat everywhere else! It was insane... I mean, a heart attack waiting to happen!

New jeans
That's too funny! I happen to buy men's jeans more often for that exact same reason!!! What IS with that stretch material??? I'm gonna stretch them out enough once I get my a$$ in them! And isn't it remarkable how much cheaper they are? Crazy, I tell ya!

What was the catalyst that made you decide to lose weight?
For me, I would have to say it was the epiphany I had about a year ago. I realized that I put the weight on while in an abusive relationship, just after high school. It acted as sort of my barrier.
Ending up in yet another abusive "relations##t", I felt the weight "kept me safe".
I think I subconsciously kept the weight on because no one finds "this" attractive... and if I'm not attractive, then I won't have anyone pursuing me, keeping me safe from abuse.
After being single for almost 7 years now, I realize that I've become strong enough to know what I want, and what I'm not going to put up with. I'm not just going to settle, like I have the other 2 times.
Mind you, there have been other factors, such as not fitting in/through things like rides and openings, being limited, physically, to do a lot of fun things... and just letting myself be me.
When I had my "Summer of Fun", the year I graduated from high school, I pretty much had no inhibitions, and it made me a happier person. I'm looking to find her again, and I know I'm on my way! Very Happy

RDI Sodium
I saw a list of RDI of certain things on a box of organic cereal. It mentioned 2400mg (or less), but I also heard somewhere else that it should be around 1500mg. I figure if I'm somewhere in that range, I should be okay.

Had a rough day yesterday, and I took it out on myself by eating and drinking too much. I've been craving snacky foods like crazy lately, but I'm not sure ...
