Well almost on track but not quite. I'm going to try to get through some cardio today. And I need to cut down on the bagels. Haven't been on the Michael Thurmond plan in days but I do try to keep it in mind lol. Guess I'll just try to take this gradually and deter away from panic mania.
I saw your pictures. I have none to show. I am down for the eating clean challenge. I did cheat yesterday. Today I'm back on that wagon and I am going to eat healthy and drink plenty of water.
I did good tonight....had a cookout with friends and I did eat 2 veggie burgers and a little coleslaw and beans...but the amazing thing is that I only ate about 6 doritos with like a tablespoon or so of rotel...I was a very good girl...well I am off to go swimming now...hope y'all are having a good night!!!
i did some very challenging stretching today from a tv exercise program on FitTV. actually was kinda fun. a little challenging but with my cousin i didnt feel like a total loser. ive been on a bagel, 1 egg, thin ham, and cheese sandwich kick lately. it just tastes so good. i make it myself. hmm maybe i should find those mini bagels?
ended up not doing that cardio the other day so i won't make any promises for it today either. but i will try.
i hav tons to read for an exam tomorrow , the joys of school (right!)
Rosie-ya know I have had FitTV for forever and it has never dawned on me that there are workout shows on there I guess there is no excuse for me on rainy days...
anyways, can you guys believe that we are halfway into the 6-week challenge? I feel so much better and I am actually to the point where I feel like my day is lacking if I don't exercise...I will post my halfway pics tonight...even if I have to write a note on my hand like a little kid
Sandy- I just wanted to welcome you aboard!! Too bad we can't burn any calories from jumping back on that wagon
Good luck to everyone...good to see us persevering and kicking fat's butt.
why yes it is mid-challenge Jen now that i think about it. i dont think i'll see much visible difference. although i do feel better. or at least my back does. as i gain more weight my back seems to get worse. i'm pretty sure the scale or measuring tape wont be in conjunction with my feelings lol.
anyways, i think i'll go food shopping today. my fridge is pretty empty. and i want to avoid going into the usual ordering out habit i get into. don't know exactly what i'm going to buy as i only have about $50 for food. but i'll try my best. maybe i'll get lucky and someone will give me free food! haha...yeah riiiiiite.
oh by the way FitTv has some great exercise programs...you should check it out. i only get to use it when i go home (to my mom's house). my school cable sucks
Signing in late and in a rush. I can't believe either that we are half way thru. I hate the thought of weighing, but I'm . The scale always lets me down, but I feel better also and my leg hasn't been bothering me.
Here it is:
wt. 282 lbs (-4)
arm: 21" (same)
Calf: 22" (same)
Hips: 53.5" (-1.5)
Waist: 40" (-2)
Chest: 45" (-2.5)
Thighs: 33.5" (-1)
Total weight lost 4 lbs and 7 inches. I'll take it, but I know I could have done better .
Ok, ladies this is where we look back on the previous weeks and state the area that we need improvement.
Me First:
I am proud of the fact that I did do some form of exercise 6 days out of each week . I need to improve my eating habit. At least 6 days, I was totally off my eating plan. The majority of the time I did get all my water in, but I would say about 4 days I did only 32 oz, if that. Although, tomorrow is a previously planned day off diet(but I hope to exercise), I need to stop the over eating and get all my water in everyday.
