The New Me….

Yayy! I went over my halfway point this morning at weigh-in. I have lost 84.5lbs and have 83.5lbs to go until GOAL! I lost 5.5lbs this week and after my 3lbs gain last week, I really needed that. I also am wearing a shirt that my Aunt gave me about 5 [...]

My legs are super sore today from my workout on Monday.  I don’t think I would be as sore if that wasn’t my first workout after a week and a half of doing nothing.  That’s OK, I’ll take the pain for now because I know it doesn’t stay.  I went to the gym and ran [...]

I got back on the exercise bandwagon yesterday.  I did a 30 min video at home (10 cardio, 10 lower body and 10 upper body) then I met Heather at the gym and did another half hour on the elliptical. It felt good to get back.  My mom signed us up for the Outside boot [...]

Ok, so I’m not alone really… but ultimately the choices I make are mine and mine alone. Got on the scale today after preparing myself for the worst. I ate fast food everyday this last week, EVERYDAY. I gained 3lbs. Not good, not as bad as it could have been. [...]

It has been a rough week and a half. I have been in the worst mood. I haven’t felt like working out or preparing healthy meals or even thinking healthy thoughts. I let myself go off plan for 1 week. Tomorrow I continue my journey with renewed faith in myself and [...]

It’s been 208 days since I started living life! I got on the scale this morning and lost 3.5lbs! Yayy! I also figured out the I have lost 7″ off my chest, 7.75″ off my waist, 7.25″ off my hips and 2″ from my arm! Holy crap, that’s -24″ total. I can’t even imagine going [...]

I took my measurements this morning and WOW! I lost 2.5″ on my chest, about 1.5″ on my waist and hips and 1″ on my arm! No wonder my shirt finally fit this month! I’m going to have to really thank my trainer next time I see her because I’m sure working [...]

I am pushing myself in April to workout more. Lately I workout M-F and rest on the weekend. I am going to make it my goal to do atleast 30 minutes of exercise 28 out of 30 days in April. I’m also going to push my minutes goal per month from 1000 [...]
