Getting things rolling

I put on a shirt that used to fit too tight and it now fits perfectly! I'm so glad that my hard work is paying off. Now I have to be careful not to go backwards again.

  

Great start to the new year

Wednesday, January 09, 2013

It feels great to start the year on this beat. Last year was kind of a mess for me and I was determined to make 2013 a much better year. So far so good! I am staying within calories, I'm exercising regularly, I'm spending less money and I've stopped most of my procrastinating.

A couple of nights ago, I was driving home and some guy side-swiped me and just kept going! The old timid me would have just got upset and worked it out on my own but I didn't want to start the year this way so I followed the guy home, confronted him and called the police! It felt great to stand up for myself and it really encouraged me to continue on this awesome streak I'm in.

Insane

Sunday, July 01, 2012

It's been a very long time.. months.. since I last blogged. I have been doing the roller coaster thing with my fitness and mostly with my nutrition. I keep overeating and it's usually on on processed, unhealthy, fatty foods. I'm hoping that's done with now. I am halfway through Insanity and now that I've started to do the really tough part of this workout, I can't eat bad while I do this or all the horribly hard work feels like it's going down the drain. So far so good today... I've challenged myself to complete a 2 week streak. Here I come!

Not so good news

Wednesday, March 28, 2012

So I'm the most out of shape and heaviest I've been in 2 years. I keep making changes to eat better and to work out but I'm having a hard time sticking to it. This is day 2 of calorie control and I'm doing alright. I haven't had this hard of a time losing the few extra pounds in a long time... it's kinda bumming me out.

I agree...it sucks. But you are on the right track. It usually takes smokers a billion times to try to quit, but they can quit. It may take you several tries, but you can and will get it under control. Report Inappropriate Comment

Getting Sick

Tuesday, March 13, 2012

Which really sucks because it caused me to sleep in on my 2nd day of re-starting the 90 day challenge for P90X. I had a hard time sleeping last night and woke up with a very dry sore throat. I'm drinking thereaflu today so I can get better fast!

Is the P90X challenge very hard to do? I have heard of this and I have been told that this is a great way to get into shape. Good luck with your workout plan. Report Inappropriate Comment
