Soreness

Dear Jillian Michaels,
I hate your guts. lol! Just kidding. =) I did her 30 day shred video
yesterday morning and boy am I sore. But, hey that means it's working right? After that funness, I headed to the store to get some healthy eats. I walked through the junk food isle and didn't get a thing. Proud? =) I bought lots of healthy food and have no excuses now not to do good. Yea!

Weigh In and March Goals

I stepped on the scale this morning and saw 183.2 That's a loss of 0.6. Not a huge loss, but a loss. I will take it. I did much better this week then last week with my eats. Working out on the other hand didn't happen. My girl H2 and I never could find a time to get together and walk. I planned to go to the gym every night this week, but then something came up every night.
I am getting a little more motivated, so I've decided to go ahead and set out some goals for March. Never to early right?! =) I would really like to pass the 170 mark by the end of March. I first have to pass the 180 mark, lol! But, that is so do able. It is a big goal. That is 13.2 pounds in 5 weeks, but I know I can do it. To help me reach this goal I move forward to goal #2, track, track, track. If I bite it write it. If I drink it ink it. It shouldn't be that hard, if I just make it a priority.  I am headed to the store today to get some healthy eats. =) This time I will not let that food go bad. lol! Goal #3 workout at least 3 times a week. Doesn't matter what it is, gym, a walk, workout video, as long as I'm moving! Last, but most important, make sure I am in church every Sunday. Since I went on bed rest with Brody in November, then his birth, etc., we have been slacking in going to church. If I am not spiritually in balance the rest of my life isn't going to be either. No more though, back to church we go. I've really missed it. I have just let Brody, sleep, and being lazy take over. Well, there you go, My goals! Please pray for me that I stay on track and become the healthy woman God wants me to be. Not only physically, but spiritually and mentally.

Weigh in

I could blame it on TOM, or I could blame it on Valentine's chocolate, or the bad weather for not exercising, or so on and so on. But, those are just excuses for why I gained 1.4 pounds this week. I weighed in at 183.8 this morning. I set a goal to pass the 180 mark this past week, but failed. No excuses, just didn't do what I needed to do to reach that goal. I need motivation!!! I just don't have it. I think about lake season coming up, and swimsuits, and wanting to be skinny, but am just not motivated. I don't know what to do?! I love getting out and walking. It's not the problem. I have grown to hate the gym, and I just can't push myself to eat the way I should. We spent $193 last week at the grocery store. I bought a pretty good amount of healthy foods, and even made ww 0 point soup. What did i do? Let it spoil. The salad passed it's date, the soup sat in the fridge for a week untouched and the fruit is now brown and headed to the garbage can. What a waste of money. What a waste of a week I could have lost some weight. And yet in all honesty I still am not motivated. I need help guys! What can I do to get motivated?

Weigh In

This week did not go as I expected it to. I did a horrible job counting my points. Well let's just say I didn't count them at all. I watched what I ate a little bit, but not like I should. I still had a few bad things. I did great exercising though. I walked or went to the gym everyday. This morning as I stepped on the scale, not expecting a loss at all, I was shocked to see 182.4.... I had lost 3.8 pounds. YEA! The only explanation I have is the working out. I don't know how in the world I managed to lose that much. Oh well I want complain. lol!
So Yesterday, I decided to help with my eating issue I would make some 0 point soup.
I had some for dinner last night and it just wasn't good. It didn't have any flavor. So, I'm going to add some seasoning to it before I eat it again. I would really like to pass the 180 mark at my next weigh in, so here is to a good on point week!

Weigh in Day!

My official beginning Weight Watcher weight is 186.2. That is up from last week. I knew it would be, b/c I ate bad yesterday knowing I was starting today. I know shameful, lol! I had to get that one last stuff my face meal in. ha! So here we go.... 186.2 The last few years (yes I said years, sad isn't it) as I have been on a roller coaster of diets, I have wanted to get down to below 140. Well, I'm not shooting for that anymore. Yes it would be nice, but I think that may be an unrealistic goal for me. So I am trying for 150. I think that may be a more obtainable goal. So, my friends please keep me accountable as I work my way to losing 36.2 pounds.... Now, the baby is screaming will blog more later. ;)

FUNFUNFUN!

I didn't get me any jeans, but check out my new running shoes!!!!
Love them!!!!!
Now, I just gotta work my way back up to running.
=)

Getting serious!

So, yesterday my girl H2 and I go shopping for some jeans. I keep putting it off b/c I want to lose weight. I hate to spend money on jeans I don't plan on being able to wear much longer. But, I haven't been able to wear my winter boots, b/c my jeans are boot cut and won't tuck into my boots. I need some straight legs, skinny jeans or jeggins. P.S. I just learned what jeggings are yesterday. I'm so not a fashionista. lol! I have no clue what size I am in, maybe 16 maybe 18. I'm not really sure. Sad thing is since I had Brody I have been wearing gym pants and the one pair of jeans I have been wearing don't have a tag telling me the size. Anyway, we go to the mall and I realize their is only one store in the mall that would actually have jeans in my size. So we go in there and they only have boot cut or flair. They don't have straight leg, and are all sold out of jeggins in any size over a 14. So we go to a few other stores and they only go up to 12 or 14. Urrrrgghhh! After we decided we were going to open a store for cute "big girl" clothing (lol) I realized no I just needed to lose weight. So, I left the mall frustrated!
Then I realized It's time to get serious about losing weight, so I pulled out the old weight watchers books this morning.
 I decided to do the flex plan. I think if I did the core plan I would overeat. I need to know OK I can only have this amount, if that makes since. I calculated my points and since I am nursing I get 34 points everyday. Tomorrow is weigh in day. I got everything ready and will begin counting points then.
