Back at it again.

So, I took a little break from my 2 a day workouts when I went home last week, which was nice. I still worked out everyday, but only once. I still stuck to the no-sugar and I'm surprised at how easy it's getting.

Now, I'm back home and at it again. I am hitting the Gym hard every morning from 6-7am, and then I do something else either during naptime at home, or in the evening, or when I can take the kids to the gym's kid's class. It hasn't felt like too much yet, and I'm drinking a TON of water, so I stay hydrated. I go back to the gym for some more lab assessment tests tomorrow. I'll let you know how that goes.

Goals this week:

Workout everyday Monday-Saturday and twice a day when possible.
No sugar
Nothing after 7PM
Snack less on granola bars, pretzels and crackers, and more on fruits and vegetables.

Good luck this week girls.

STOKED!

I lost another 0.9lbs - almost a pound! I know it's not much but I'm still very happy with it!! I've started really small with my goals and it feels good to know that even by doing the small things you can have accomplishments. Last week went pretty well. I exercised 2x instead of 3x but I did a lot better with what I ate and was really good about not eating after 7pm. I didn't buy any treats from the store too, even though I was tempted! Starting out slow and steady has been the best thing for me. I feel doing it this way has helped me change my lifestyle to be more healthy instead of feeling like I'm going on a temporary diet. Thanks for the support ladies!!

Not Happy!!

I don't know what is going on! I have gained 6 pounds, uugghh!! I am going to do a Raw 7 Day Detox starting on Monday. Why am I waiting until Monday, because I have to go get groceries so I can and I won't be going until tomorrow.

I have workout 4 times this week and I am eating veggies and fruits with little meat and not treats and I still gained. I am not going to stress out, I am not going to stress out, I am not going to stress out.

Hope all is well with every one!

New week ladies!

This is going to be quick, I'm exhausted from the day! But this last week I did pretty well with all of my goals. I wanted to be a part of Cami's no sweets challenge so I've challenged myself to not buy any treats when I go to the store. So far - A+! That doesn't mean I don't have treats already in the house, but at least I'm not adding to them and eventually they'll go away right? lol Oh, and big news!! I lost 0.5lbs this last week!!! I know, it's not much at all but I haven't lost ANYTHING in the past few months so I'll take the speck of weight loss. It makes you feel really good! I'm totally stoked about my half a pound lol!

This week, same goals and I'm adding in eating more fruits and veggies and working out 3x instead of 2x. Good luck ladies!!

What a WEEK!!!

Review of the week....

No sugar (treats, sweets, desserts, etc.)? Check.

Gym Pass? Check.

Workouts? CHECK, CHECK!!!!

I worked out twice a day all week long. About 2 hours a day. This isn't normal for me, but I was excited about my Gym pass, so my neighbor and I worked out together at 6 am every morning, and then took turns watching eachother's kids later during the day (or at nap time) so we could go again. I am utterly stiff, to say the least. But I feel great! Have you guys done the INSANITY workout? I about died!!! I LOVED it though. I have a lab assesment appointment set up this Tuesday at the Gym, so I can test my muscle strength, body fat, flexibility, etc. I'm excited to see how that goes. As for the rest of the week, I'll do what I can, but I'm leaving for Utah on Wednesday until the following Monday, so it might be difficult to work like I did this week. However, I'm still going to exercise as much as possible and not eat any sugar still. Hopefully, I'm all detoxed by now, so I don't get any more headaches! How pathetic am I?! Anyway, good luck to the rest of you. Hope you are all doing well this NEW YEAR!

I don't think I can

I've come to realize something about why I haven't lost weight and why I don't eat better and work out more. Deep, deep down, I honestly don't think I can. Isn't that horrible? I WANT to be healthier and look healthier but I don't think I can do what it takes. Part of it I believe has to do with my brother's while I was growing up. They were always on my case about eating too much and told me I was fat more times than I could count. So I have issues lol.

Now that I have that off my chest here's what I'm going to do about it. I think I'm going to keep setting goals and keep telling myself that I CAN lose weight. That I CAN be healthier. That I CAN do this.

This week's goals: go to bed before 11pm, drink more water, do two Insanity workouts, and don't buy any sweets. Good luck this week girls!!
