Posting a couple before pictures…ones that I hate and dare not dream to post on Facebook. Can’t wait to be able to compare these to some “after” pictures. Hey..I can dream right?!

Atkins Diet

Sun, 22 Apr 2012 14:29:16 -0400

So…this whole eating healthy thing has not been working out for me. And I have been cheating at least twice per week with fast food. And I need to lose weight. So today is day 2 of the Atkins Diet for me. My stepmom is on it and has lost 6 pounds in 6 days. So, I hope to get similar results and it is actually not so bad. I love meat…so maybe this is for me. Just took my measurements and weight..ready to see what I can get accomplished.

Weight: 209.4 pds

Bust 47 in

Chest 41.5

Waist 48.5

Hips 49

Thigh: 29. 5 in

Biceps: 14.5 in

Fruit Ice Cubes.

To prepare, crush the fruit you want to incorporate (kiwi, mango, cherries, limes, watermelon …) with some homemade lemonade, for example following this basic recipe. Then fill your bucket with the mixture and freeze.

When ready, add these cubes to your lemonade and enjoy new flavors.

Tomorrow

Sun, 15 Apr 2012 21:14:58 -0400

So. I have been cheating. Terribly bad. I did my best for a week and like a dummy, when I didn’t see results, I gave up. I know I have to do better than that. It will take months, maybe a whole year to get to the weight I want to be at. So, tomorrow morning I will hit the gym. I will work harder than I usually do. I will sweat and sweat. And I will eat healthy. And I will make change.

Tomorrow I will be a better me.

No more excuses.

Really

Great way to start Easter. Don’t do something if you ain’t going to do it right, especially when it’s not a hard thing at all to do anyways. Slow me down. Aggrivate me. Make me tired.

TIRED. JUST LEAVE ME ALONE.

I totally recommend Pop Pilates.

Just a quick reminder that you can sneak exercise in anytime, anywhere. This whole thing would take about five minutes, and then you would have burned 100 calories more than if you sat here staring at your computer. You cant get the butt you want by sitting on the one you have.

Proud

Wed, 04 Apr 2012 19:14:44 -0400

I am so proud of myself today! =) I did a mile at the gym (some jogging, some walking) — big step for me. Then I got on the elliptical that practically killed me! I also did a little weights. I have ate healthy all day and I parked half a mile across campus from my class so I would have to walk further, and took the stairs all day. And to top it off, I took an evening 2 mile walk with my son and husband. This is one excited girl. I am getting the hang of this!

Will be trimming down soon,
