2nd week

Well this is day 4 of the 2nd week of workouts. I have been doing good on my breakfast,lunch, and dinner choices. However some of my snacks and drinks have not been the best. I have had a few cokes and chocolate chip cookies. I dont know why I cant fight temptation for a coke. For the rest of the week, I will try to work harder at not drinking pop. As for my workouts, well sat I was suppose to walk for 40 minutes but I didnt do that. I didnt know where to walk and I didnt want to do the treadmill. It had snowed, so I decided to play in the snow with Addie. We were outside running and playing in the snow for about a half hour. I didnt break a sweat, but every little bit helps right? Sun I did a relaxed workout. And Mon I didnt workout. I was so tired in the morning and in the evening we went shopping and I had to get my headlight fixed. By the time we got home, ate dinner, and got Addie asleep, I was just too tired to do anything. I had Tues off and after I dropped Addie off at daycare, I had alot of errands to run. Of course I had plans of working out. But somehow shopping and crafts and house keeping got in the way. And it always seems like my days off go by so much faster than when Im at work! But at night I did my workout and also kickboxing video. When I woke up this morning, my body ached! But I know thats my bodies way of telling me its been working hard! I did my workout this morning and Im planning on doing my kickboxing video tonight, although I might try to find another PINK video that I like. Oh and I weighed myself on Sun. I lost another pound, so 3 pounds all together. Hopefully this week I can loose another 3 pounds or more. But I know I will have to work harder. Send any extra motivation you can! Heres to a great day!

hello scale

Well last night I wasnt going to weigh myself. But for some reason, I did. And I was pretty nervous stepping on the scale. When I saw my weight I didnt know why I was nervous. I had lost 2 pounds!!!! I couldnt believe it! I did a little happy dance. When I told Ian, he high fived me and said how proud he was. I was pretty proud too! So I decided to reward myself by doing my P.I.N.K kick boxing video! I wasnt going to do the whole thing, just the arm part. But I loved it so much I did the entire video. Boy was I warn out when it was finished. I didnt think I could get back upstairs!  But I did. And I was again proud of myself! We ate a decent dinner and I drank alot of water during the day. Today when I woke up I was pretty sore. But then when I remembered that I had lost 2 pounds, it was a good hurt. :) So today has been ok eating wise. I have been drinking my water, but it gets old fast. And I did my level 1 workout in the morning. Im thinking Im going to do another P.I.N.K video tonight but Im not sure which one. Hopefully I will still have the motivation tonight! Heres to a fit RM!

Day 1 of the diet/workout is done! I woke up this morning and did Level 1 of the workout PLUS the 100 calorie that I found on pinterest. I ate a decent breakfast. I had multigrain cheerios with a banana. My snack was a chocolate and oats fiber bar. For lunch I had a sandwich(on the slim sammie),cheese,apple, and a 90 cal brownie. For dinner, we had spaghetti(made with whole grains)and lots of veggies in the sauce. I drank water and a gateraide today. NO POP! I can not believe that I didnt have a coke today. I do miss it but I want to LOOSE this weight. Anyway, before dinner, I walked 20 minutes on the treadmill, and found out I am so out of shape. I hate the treadmill, but I want to follow this workout. Tomorrow I plan on doing the level 2 of the workout plus the 100 calorie workout. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner should be good. Hopefully I can wake up early enough(the adster has been waking up early....)Ian just informed me he didnt have pop today either. Im so proud of us! Heres to hoping I can do well tomorrow!

Well hello! I bet you thought I was done with my blog. Well I am here to start it up again! I need something in my life. A lot is going on in my life and I decided I needed to get back to blogging and working out. So, after a trip to Goodwill where I bought 2 fitness books, many weeks of trying to decide what I want to do, I came up with a new plan. I took what I learned from the 2 fitness books, my PINK videos/guide, and my preferences, I decided on my plan of attack. I tried to start to ease into it by watching what I ate and doing a mini workout. Well I couldnt even do that. WTH? I dont know why I just cant get off my butt and workout! Im tired but feel good when I do it. So today started a new week. And I didnt follow the diet, because we ordered pizza at work, but I did bring healthy snacks. I did however do the Level 1 workout of one of the fitness books and I ran on the treadmill for 2 minutes! Tomorrow I will follow the diet better and I will do the workouts. I need a change. Everytime I look in the mirror I think, why cant I just diet, why do i drink that coke? I look and feel miserable! I eat because Im depressed, Im depressed because I eat. So Im hoping this week I can get back into the workouts, eat better, and loose the weight. Please send me motivation!

blah

well here i am. i bet you thought i had disappeared. well i didnt. i wish i could say alot has happened since i last wrote. i wish that i could say that i have been working out and eating right. i wish i could say that im at my goal. but sadly not alot has happened and i havent been working out or eating right. and sadly im not even close to my goal. i couldnt even weigh myself because i knew i gained alot back. i was going to start the diet and working out hard this week. i did alright today. but it was so busy at the zoo and i was so hungry and thirsty. so i had animal cookies and a gateraid. and now i dont feel like doing anything. i dont know why i cant find motivation. i dont know why i cant just suck it up and work out. tonight i have a headach and i dont feel like doing anything. so im telling myself right now: tomorrow is a new day. i will work harder at eating better. i will workout tomorrow. i owe it to myself

power through it!

I am completely drained! I thought I was going to have the day off and be able to complete 2 wokrouts. But they were busy at work so I got called in. And we were pretty busy. So I didnt get some of the cleaning done that I wanted to but I made a little money. Anyway, I got home from work, ate dinner, and took Addie to swim lessons. I made Ian go with her because, for one I was tired, and two, I didnt know if I wanted to see myself in a swim suit. When we got there, I saw several reasons that I still need to continue with this diet! After Addies lesson, we came home and relaxed for a little bit before getting her ready for bed. Then one of my favorite shows, The RIver was on. I decided to watch all of it and began to think, naa Im not going to do my workout. Then I remembered those reasons I still needed to workout. So I got ready, and did the kickboxing workout. I was exhausted, sweaty, and had a horrible headach. But I powered through it. I admit, I did the modifications, and I rested longer than I should but I got through it. Im glad that I powered through it becuase the scale rewarded me. Im officially in 1 3 9!!!! I cant believe it! I still dont know why I cant fit into the next size jean, but again, my jeans are too big and contiune to fall down. And Im fittiting into shirts better. But I still have a gut. This week I need to focus on powering through it. I need to focus on: sticking to the diet, getting out and enjoying the beautiful weather by walking with my daughter, and doing the workouts. And hopefully at the end of the week, the scale with contiune to reward me.

lets go

So I weighed myself today. I was a little nervous but Im glad that I did it. Before I tell you my weight, let me tell you about my day. I had the day off and I went to Goodwill after I dropped Addie off at daycare. I wanted to buy pants for work but didnt find anything. I did get a couple of medium tops though. (And Sponge Bob jammie pants for Addie!) After Goodwill, I went home and did some laundry and cleaned the bathroom. I knew I wanted to workout, so about 11 I did my phase 3 workout. It was kickboxing again. I LOVED it! I was dripping in sweat and it felt great. I even tried doing some of the harder moves instead of motifications. It was brutal. But I felt so good after it. I even decided to run on the treadmill. I told myself I would run for as long as I could, then a little longer,and then be done. Well I ran for probably a minute before I was done. For not running, or even walking on the treadmill in a long time, I thought it was pretty good. So before I took my shower, I decided to weigh myself. Again, I was nervous but I needed to know. And I was happy with the result. I weigh, drum roll please, 140! I have lost 28 pounds so far on the PINK method. I am just a little excited with that number. Im going to continue to work hard, follow the diet and LOOSE this weight!
