Chasing Pavements

I didnt get those 2 long workouts in. In fact, I didn’t work out at all. I did a lot of cleaning and running around this weekend, but I need to get my butt in gear because this week’s Slump Buster challenge is 250 minutes of exercise. Can’t be putting that off until Thursday. So…I do have quite a few errands to run after work. The plan is to start the 30DS AGAIN and see how my knee acts.

I weighed this morning and was down 2 lbs! Yeah!!! Once I am a member for 20 days(who came up with 20 days? I mean why not a full 3 weeks or something???) then I can post a cute little tracker. I am now 206 and am leaving for Mexico in 4 weeks. My goal is to be below 200 by then. It’s is attainable and I will stay focused darnit!!!

We went to a birthday party over the weekend and I was so proud of myself. I ate before I went and just snacked on some veggies. I also skipped the cupcake cause it didn’t really look that good. And it didn’t make a bit of difference once I left there. Tomorrow we are having a St. Patty’s Day carryin at work. There will be Ruby Tuesday sliders, a bunch of different kinds of soup, and lots of yummy desserts. I’m in the process of deciding what I will eat and points and all that. I’m trying to go in prepared!!!

My weekend SUCKED. My son started Saturday by waking up at 6:30 am. Not cool, kid. Then he soaked my brand new iphone in his cup of juice. Really???? I mean, why??? It didn’t work for 2 days and I felt so lost, but suddenly is working again. Whatever, I’ll take it. It just all seemed to go downhill from there, but I’m ready to move on!

I weighed today and I was the same. I ate out a lot over the last week and didn’t get near the workouts in. So,  I am so excited to be starting over this week and for the first day of the SLUMP BUSTERS Challenge!!! This week the goal is to do 10 miles of cardio activity. If you don’t do it, you have to post a pic of you in your bathing suit. No way in the world am I posting a pic of me in my suit. I’m not even going to look for the picture, ’cause it ain’t happening people,lol!!!

Tonight I plan on starting the  30DS again. I’ve been reading on people’s blogs about their progress with it and am ready to feel the pain again!!! If I can clear some crap from my garage and get to my treadmill, I’ll get a couple of miles out of the way. Hmmm….that will probably be a workout in itself.

Ah…the fun stuff.

Height - 5′3 and a half, like that seriously makes a difference!

Current Weight - 208

Goal Weight - 150

I’ve started working with my realtor concerning my weight loss. Probably wondering how that happened? He has a degree in exercise physiology or something like that and knows the ins and outs of it all. He had me do a BodPod(anyone had the pleasure of that experience??? It measures your body fat percentage. Anyway, his plan makes perfect sense, it just takes a lot to follow. And so far I haven’t really followed it.

I am going to Mexico in 5 short weeks and would love, love, love to see some changes before then. This is when I wish I was a little OCD and could have tunnel vision and just DO IT!

Today is cardio day. I brought my workout clothes and am going to hit the little gym in our office building for some treadmill time. The plan is 40 minutes and then back to work!
