MIA again: 92 Days Left

Sorry I have been MIA...

I promise I have still been working out. I kicked my booty last night. I am about to go on a bike ride right now.

I have not weighed myself (mostly because my monthly friend has left me feeling HUGE lately!) but I intend on weighing myself VERY soon.

I promise I will be better about posting!

Take care until next time,

I have been DREADING writing in this blog because I honestly feel kind of ashamed.

When I was taking care of myself, I got all the way down to 138 (making that a 12 pound weight loss). My jeans were starting to get loose. I had lots of energy. I LOVED it.

Just the other day I noticed that my jeans were getting tighter. I definitely did the whole "I just washed and dried them so they must have shrunk" excuse. I didn't want to believe that I had put the weight back on.

Well, I finally weighed myself... and my fear became a reality. I have put back on 9 pounds. Yes, I am back up to 147. The scale is going in the wrong direction considering I am getting married in 3 months.

It was really hard to write this post today. I remember feeling SO proud of losing the weight, and now that is taken away with the pounds I have put on.

I get married in 103 days guys. I need to get serious about taking care of myself.

I want to feel sexy for my hubby on our wedding day/ night/ honeymoon. Scratch that. I WILL feel sexy.

This is it guys... who is in it with me?!

T-minus 5 days

Lord help me now...

Tomorrow, I am DEFINITELY going for a run and maybe getting a little shred action too.

P.S. Just an FYI for those of you who have Cox Cable... the 30 Day Shred is on the FREE Zone!!!!! Forget paying 10 bucks for it... just do it for free thanks to good ol Cox!!! :)

Making Progress

You guys will be so proud!!! I ate really well today. I had a salad for lunch (with cucumbers, carrots, broccoli, hard boiled egg, lettuce, and LIGHT dressing. It was delish and filled me up quite nicely.

Then, for dinner, I had fruit salad and half of a quesadilla. It was really small so it was not much cheese. I had lots of fruit though.

I am still addicted to Diet Coke. Is it really THAT bad for me!? Ugh... that will be a hard habit to break.

I am going to start something new on Fridays that I think a lot of people will like. I am going to call it Fast Food Fridays. Then, we can all learn that if you HAVE to go to a fast food restaurant you can eat within reason. I will exhibit one fast food restaurant per week and I will discuss the possible "healthier" options on the menu! You like?! I hope so.

P.S. I am STILL working on the comments thing. Don't hate me cuz I can't get it to work! :)

Give it to me straight...

... Just HOW bad are Taco Bell's Grilled Chicken Burritos for me?!

I was weak and needed food VERY quick today because I was on my way to my niece's graduation from high school. In order to prevent passing out, I went to Taco Bell. I purchased a grilled chicken burrito.



Seemed like a pretty smart purchase...

390 Calories, 13 grams of fat, 49 grams of carbs, and 19 grams of protein later...

No, it wasn't HORRIBLE... but it sure as heck isn't the best thing for me!

Tomorrow is a new day... AND it is FRIDAY! What could be better than that?!

I hope you all enjoy your friday!!! :)

130 days til the wedding!!

I can't believe how soon it is creeping up!

I have been doing pretty decent with this Operation: Get My Bangin Body Back.

One thing that I have been doing in order to be proactive is cutting out snacking. When I am at work, it is far too easy to snack my way into obesity. I am bored and there is food there, so why not eat, right?! WRONG.

I have been packing a healthy hearty lunch and eating a healthy hearty breakfast, and it has been keeping me full until dinner time. I have no idea if the scale will agree with my eating decisions, but we will find out soon enough.

I don't care what day it is cuz I just shredded

ON LEVEL TWO BABYYYYY!!!!!!!!!

This is the first time I have completed level two! The first time I tried it, I nearly passed out about 1/3 of the way through and was like hyperventilating on the floor.

Don't get me wrong... it was TOUGH... and I wanted to give up. Right when I was about to quit, she started talking about looking good in bathing suits. Damn that motivated me.

I used to NEVER care about wearing bathing suits because I knew I looked good. It is amazing what you can take for granted. My body is NO WHERE NEAR what I want it to be. But sure am determined to get my body back.

I will no longer have excuses for slacking. The wedding is 4 months away. There is no more time to waste. I need to take it up a few notches.

Let's do this.

Day 329843923

Guys I suck.

This is the problem... I do well for a week and then I suck it up.

The only exercise I have done is that I have gone for a run. Woohoo...

This is getting ridiculous. I take my senior pictures in a week. That means this week I am going to KICK ASSSSS! Mark my words.

<3

Day 7

One week in and I am feelin gooooood. :)

I had a salad for lunch today again. It was delish! Oh and for breakfast I had about half of a muffin. It probably was not the best for me but I didn't go crazy!

Then, for dinner I had a quesadilla. Once again, probably not the best for me, but I didn't go crazy.

I have been trying to eat less more frequently. I think I have been doing okay with that. It is kinda hard with work, but I am trying my best.

I am still SUPER sore from my run. I am hoping that I can go for a run tomorrow after work. I did do some crunches with my weights tonight! WOOOO! :)

Take care until next time,

Day 6

Oh man guys, I am SO sore!!!

I went for a run last night. I cannot believe how much better my endurance is!!! I can run twice as far without having to stop! I really pushed myself last night though. I sprinted the last stretch of the way home. I think that is what did me in.

I can feel my booty toning as we speak!!! :) WOOO HOOOO! :)

For lunch today, I had a salad and a little bit of left over chicken alfredo. Then, for dinner, I had a grilled chicken soft taco and a grilled chicken burrito for dinner. I feel like I am getting the hang of this.

Don't get me wrong, snacking at work is still difficult, but I did not snack AT ALL today!

Hopefully tomorrow will be another good day!

Day 3

I did it. I weighed myself.

139.5!!!

That ended up not being nearly as high as I was expecting. It is only 1.5 pounds higher than my lowest weight. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this.

130 by October. That is the goal, y'all. WOoOO

Day 2

Today was not terrible. I am definitely missing my soda right about now. That is one thing that I have been good about.

I was gonna weigh in this morning, but I was running super late to meet a couple of my girl friends. I definitely plan on weighing in for real in the morning. I am not afraid of weighing in anymore. I know I have gained some back, but that is okay. I am ready to work on it now.

I will let you all know how the weigh in goes in the morning. :)

I am considering moving this blog since the comments seem to be unfixable. I will try a few more things, but if that doesn't work, then I will have to have you all follow me over at a new one.

You know what I just decided... yes just this moment, I just decided that I need to start doing the 100 push up challenge again.

Anyone on board? Anyone, anyone, Bueller? :)

Day 1.2

Yes, I am guilty...

... but I swear the twix wanted me JUST as much as I wanted it!!!!

Day 1.1

Be proud... I just got pita chips instead of regular ones! :)

WOOOOO progress! :)

Oh and I had a salad!

Day 1

I think it is time to start this thing over.

I have sucked at my weightloss maintenance. I refuse to sit here and make excuses for it.

I have not weighed myself in a long time, but I WILL step on that scale in the morning and face my ultimate doom. haha

Today is a new day. I need to start training for my 5K, get bathing suit fabulous, and just feel healthy. There is no time like the present. It starts now.

Water this week is going to be a must. I will not have any soda for the rest of the week. Oh goodness that is a scary thought. I have become heavily dependent on it for my caffeine fix.

MyMr asked if I would get a gym membership to his gym so that I can motivate him to go. I thought that was very sweet of him. So, on Friday, we are going to go purchase a gym membership and we are going to hold each other accountable.

This is it guys; it is time for change.

Day 124

Man, what a crazy week! I have been working a lot extra (which I have no problem with), so that has not left me much time for exercise. I have been VERY good about eating though.

Everyday for lunch I eat a salad with lots of veggies on it. It usually consists of carrots, broccoli, hard boiled egg, cucumbers, sometimes celery, a little bit of cheese, and since I don't like whole tomatoes, I put salsa on it. Then I top it with some ranch.

I am going to start taking the stairs down to the cafe instead of the elevator. I work on the 4th floor, so its not like its asking a lot of me. Plus, it gives me just that little bit of exercise. Good idea, no?

Well, there are exactly 24 weeks until our rehearsal dinner. Seems like plenty of time, but there is so much I want to accomplish from now until then. It sounds like it is time to get a move on with it all. :)

I hope everyone has an excellent Friday!!!

Take care until next time,

Day 120

Well, I still don't have my comments working, and I am not sure if I ever will haha. I have tried EVERYTHING!!!

I have recently started my new job!!! You would all be proud because I eat a salad every day for lunch. We have a great salad bar in the cafe at my work.

Also, I recently decided to start training for a 5K. The race I will run is in August, so it gives me a few months to build up my endurance. I went for a run today, and I can already tell that my endurance is getting better! Plus, it can't do anything but help tone my biggest problem area... MY LEGS!!! WOOO!

I know this is a weird post, and I promise to be better about posting as soon as I get my comments to work! In the meantime, visit my other blog! It should be more entertaining!!! :)
