Happy

I have been doing the P90X for 8 weeks, on my 9th week this week. I can tell a difference. I went to Maurice's to see what I could use my Christmas Gift Card on thinking I can't fit into anything there. Well, I was brave a grabbed a size 11/12 pair of Jeans and THEY FIT (well a little big in the hip and leg area)!! I was SHOCKED!! I have not be this size in 14 years. I have 5 more weeks of P90X Lean Program and I can't wait to see the final me. I am going to do the program again though when I finish it this time. It is a killer, but it truly works! Hope everyone is doing great this month!

Nose dive

I took a complete nose dive this last week with my eating and have gone crazy with the treats. I am sick up to my hairline with sweets and starting tomorrow back on track with eating healthy and excersing. I have exercised all week, but I don't know how much it really counts because of all the sweets.

I know it is Christmas, but I over did it and have thrown ALL the treat/sweets out the door with the trash this morning.

Broke Down

I finally broke down and started the P90X Lean program. It is amazing, hard, fun and rewarding to see the changes in my body. I am on week 4 and have 8 more weeks to go to finish. I think when I finish I am going to try the Classic program! I hope all of you are doing great with your weight-loss goals. I am lookingforward to this new year and new goals!!

It's coming off.....slowly...but surely

Okay- I think something is happening. Thanks to my new friend Jillian Michaels!!! I have lost 10 pounds the last 2 months and I am finally seeing some changes. I can't believe how much harder this has been then after my first two! I am seriously working harder than ever, and I'm just glad it's finally starting to pay off. I have 10 more pounds to lose and then I'll be down to my lowest, but I'm hoping to lose about 15 more pounds total. That would put me at 125.

I've been doing the 30-day shred workout videos, (Cardio, Strength training, and Abs) the Last Chance workout videos (cardio and strength), the elipticle and walking a few days a week. (I do the 20 minute video everyday,...well monday-saturday....and then some days I do the elipticle, some days I also walk for an hour, and other days I just call that good!)

As for diet, I have been drinking lots of water (Thanks Rolyndia!) ...around 100 ounces a day. It's killing my bladder, but worth it.

I have been drinking protein shakes for breakfast, (after I workout and lift weights) and I've been eating lots of shredded wheat or whole wheat bread sandwhiches for lunch. I have cut my snacking down to a minimal, and then for dinner I eat whatever my family eats, but I try to cut my carbs in half, and triple my vegetables.

I'll keep doing it as long as it's working!

Hope you all are doing well. Stay strong through the HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!!!

8 down, 11 to go

I am down 8 pounds and only 11 more to go. I am so excited!! I have been really trying hard to lose the last of my weight to reach my goal and I am so close.

Hope every one is doing great!

ZUMBA!!

I LOVE this class. I have it every week and it is so much fun. It is only one night a week, but I found out last ngiht she offers it on two mornings and I think I am going to start going to those also. It is a Latin dance aerobic class, just in case you were wondering. You can go to www.zumba.com and see more of it.

Hope everyone is doing great!!

750 Calorie BURN

So how is everyone doing? I've been feeling pretty good lately. I have been working out really hard, and eating really well these past few months, however, the baby weight is still not budging. I'm sure I just need to be patient, and keep working hard. I wish I was seeing some results, but I guess all I can do is just be healthy. The past few weeks I've really stepped up my workouts. I've even done a couple of elipticle workouts where I've burned 750 calories. Not bad, huh? It took me an hour each time, and I was sweating like a pig, but it felt SOOOOOOOOOOOOo good!!! I haven't eaten any treats for about a week now, and I'm trying to do it for a couple of more weeks. I'm hoping this will help jumpstart some weightloss soon. The race that I did last year is coming up, and I wish I would've signed up. I just didn't think I would be back in shape so soon, after having a baby. I was surprised that I could still run a 5k, when Madison was only about 2 months old. I should've signed up again, but now it's too late, so it costs a lot more, and I don't want to spend all that money to do it again. I would love to do a 10K next year though. I'm going to go running this morning, and see how far I can go. Wish me luck!

Really, is anybody else even out there? Let me know what you are up to!
