So this is a story of two friends who are trying to lose some wieght for their own personal reasons. We are relying on each other and whoever else reads this blog to help us with our first 20 pounds. We are Skinny Bitch 1 and Skinny Bitch 2 and we hope that you enjoy our stories, struggles, successes and most of all our support.
Skinny Bitch 1:
Okay, so I weighed in today after my stromboli dinner last night. Drum roll please...................starting weight was 154.1!!! HOLY CRAP, I'm a fat ass! But that is okay because I'm motivated. I've had a Luna bar this morning (around 8:30) and just had a banana. Basically I'm doing portion control and working out on a mostly daily basis to lose my first 20 pounds. So, breakfast and lunch not so bad but dinner is the worst. Does anyone have any good recipes for a picky husband and a horrible cook of a wife? Pass it on if you do! Wish me luck on lunch, I'm going to Panera a.k.a. CARB HEAVEN
Skinny Bitch 2:
First off, I would just like to say what a fantastic idea this is. I don't think I've ever been this motivated to do anything in my life. Well I must admit I am almost ashamed to type in that large number I saw on that damn scale this morning, but being this determined..I guess I have to. Weighing in at 163.1..(I feel like we are being auctioned off as a big prize)..I felt pretty disgusted with myself, but I have to think that a few of those pounds resulted from the swelling on my face that will not go down!! UGh..Stupid surgery!..
Anyways, back to the topic..I did some researching and found a few quotes..I think my favorite one is "Strengthen your desire. Weak Desire brings weak results, just as a small fire brings a small amount of heat"..Credit needs to be given to someone, just not exactly sure who.. I hope day one goes as good for you as it is for me.
Tonight's my first night back to work since the surgery, hopefully I can resist temptation and disregard that loaf of bread calling my name..I just need to keep in mind the end result, and how badly I want to wear a prom dress to the local bars =)...
On that note, skinny bitch 2 is out---like a fat kid in dodge ball
Skinny Bitch 3
Well, I hate to say it but I was an accomplice to skinny bitch 1's CARB HEAVEN lunch today at Panera. That's where I learned about this blog and thought it was great and had to join. There's nothing better than having a support system of others who want to be (and will be) skinny bitches!!!!
After reading what skinny bitch 1 and 2 had to say, I realize that not only am I the fattest one (weighing in at 176 lbs) but I'm also the oldest. Aaaahhhh! I've always been the type of person that gained weight and would take it off easily by taking diet pills are just cutting back on food. And then I hit 30!!! It's like being in somebody else's body and I want a new one. I've been working out regularly and eating healthy and it's taken me about 2 months to drop 10 lbs. Lord, in my 20's I could do that in 2-3 weeks by cutting out a meal. Not anymore!!!
So this time my plan is to continue to work out on a daily basis, eat healthy and live a more active lifestyle. My goal is to lose weight, but most importantly it's to drop a few sizes. I'm currently in a 10 or 12 (depending on the maker and style of clothes) and my goal is a size 4 or 6.
To start this journey, I bought a book this evening. It's called "Winning By Losing" by Jillian Michaels of the Biggest Loser. From what I glanced at in the bookstore she goes over how there are three different types of metabolisms. Here I thought there was only one, SLOW!!!! It's off to start reading about my ridiculously slow metabolism and how I can give it a jump start. Does anybody have jumper cables????

the best of luck to both of you. I can say that it is a tough road, one that I can not seem to stay on myself. If either of you need any help let me know.
Here is another quote for you both..."One who says something is imossible is often interupted by someone doing it."
I have faith that you both can do this.
awwww...thanks babe!! I appreciate your support!!
WELCOME SKINNY BITCH #3!!! I'm so excited that you are now a member of our support system. First I should mention, don't hook the jumper cables up to the boobs! I know someone's husband will be mad if those babies get ruined! I think we all need to keep track of portions, suck back the water and get our fat asses moving to become the skinny bitches I know that we can be!!! Don't check your weight until next Tuesday - let's all try to weigh ourselves in the morning. Check back throughout the week for support!!! ~ Skinny bitch 1
