EXCITED!

I am super PUMPED about this weeks weigh in!  I have had such a great week of work outs, running, and eating!  We are re doing our backyard and front yard so all weekend we were outside...lifting heavy bricks etc!  I feel GGGGGRRREEEAAAATTTT!  Even though the scale might not be a HUGE weight loss that I would like....even a little loss will excite me because of the past weeks I have had!  If anyone has any suggestions or helpful hints to help my weight loss pick back up...I would LOVE to hear it!  I know this is short and sweet, but I just wanted to talk about my excitement!  Thank you all for all your support!  Have a wonderful day!

A WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!

So as you all know...I have been a little stressed about my weight loss the past couple weeks!  Mainly because the number has not gone done, but I have felt wonderful and like I was really losing!  Well today at All-American (where I work out as of now) I had my body fat measured again.  I am an a body fat contest thing!  Anyways, in 3 weeks I have lost 5% body fat...so now I am at 35%!  I'm not sure if that is necessarily good, but I LOST!  He also told me that I lost the most in my LOVE HANDLES!  I loath my love handles, so it is good to hear!  I feel like that is the little thing I needed to spark me up!  I had a wonderful work out today!  It is crazy how I can burn 350 calories in 30 minutes, but you can eat 350 calories in 30 seconds!  I DIDN'T....I'm just saying!  Ok guys I have way to much to do today to be chattin on the computer!  I hope all ya'll have as great of day as I am going to have!  And as always....THANK YOU ALL!

Soreness at it's GREATEST!

So since my last long run of 9 miles 5 weeks ago....I have only been doing 3 miles about 3 or 4 times a week and only on a treadmill!  No because I want to, but because with 2 children it is the only way I have been able to do it!  But thanks to the time change...it is still daylight when my husband gets home now and I am able to run outside again!  And let me tell you....I'M STRESSING!  I loathe running on a treadmill because it is so boring and it is so hard for me to go much further than 3 miles.  Then finally getting to run outside today like totally stressed me out because it was so hard!  I am running the half marathon in less than 2 months!  I know I will be fine, but my body feels so beat up from my short slow run of 2.2 miles this evening.  I feel like I have a pulled muscle or something in my left upper part of my leg.  I'm ready to have like 10 more pounds off of me because I know running will be that much easier with the extra weight off!  I know I need to stop stressing about my running, but I LOVE running and the past 2 years I have tried to run the half and other things have some up...like double knee surgery and being 7 months pregnant with a beautiful baby Molly!  Either way I need to start stepping it WAY UP!  But now on to better things!  Thank you to all who have messaged me the past couple days after reading my blogs!  I really appreciate the motivation as always!  You really are helping me more than you know!  I am starting back weight watchers (or as Denise calls it) dub dub on Saturday!  I really can't wait!  I think this will help me with my lack of losing the past couple of weeks!  Well again thank you to all of you!  You are all so wonderful for helping through this weight loss journey of mine!  Hope ya'll all have a great evening!  I now need to finish this episode of Dexter and then watch the finale of the bachelor before I fall asleep sitting up!  Love ya'll!

I'M BACK!!!

I have been slacking lately on blogging....and I hate it!  I have not been slacking on my weight loss journey though..even though the scale does not say the same!  I have been working out and eating well, but I feel overwhelmed with the weight loss right now!  5 weeks ago I was at 203!  I was so excited and new that I would be under 200 pounds in no time!  Now 5 weeks later I am still at 204!  I am starting to get very frustrated and overwhelmed! Size wise I feel so great and can really tell that I am slimming down, but again the scale is not saying that!  I know I should not be upset, but I feel like the last 5 weeks have just been a waste!  I am really considering joining weight watchers again!  I know it works, and I really like it...but I was really enjoying doing it on my own.  I feel like I am at a slow point and need some help!  I am planning on weighing in on Friday morning and then going to weight watchers!  I also feel that my blog helps me so much, but I have just been slacking way to much on it!  I am going to try and blog at least 4 times a week!  I loved at the beginning of my journey when I was taking a lot more photos and videos!  I am going to start trying to do that more as well!  Thanking you to all of you for following me and continuing to help me on my journey!  I love you all!

Great Start...

This morning was my weekly weigh in!  And WOO HOO...I lost 1.6 pounds!  I'm not mad about that at all!  That means I maintained or lost when I was on vacation!  I set a pretty high goal a couple of weeks ago, and it was the week I had to weigh in early!  I'm not using that as an excuse, but I did not hit it!  This week I am setting a goal of 3.8 pounds...that will put me right at 200!  I feel like I have been just playing around to much with my weight this past 3 weeks or so.  I would have a great loss...then gain...then have a tiny loss....NOT ANYMORE!  This week I will lose at least 3.8 pounds!  Well I'm super happy with this weeks weigh in!  Also....I want to give a big shout(haha)  to my Mother-in-law who has lost like 18 pounds in a month!  She is doing weight watchers and she is doing such an amazing job!  Way to go Cindy....I love you and am so proud of you!  Also, to my daddy...he has lost like 13 or 14 pounds and OMG you can like totally tell!  His little belly is gone!  Congrats daddy....I love you more than you will EVER now!  You have always been an amazing role model!  Congrats to everyone losing weight and trying to get healthy!  Love you all and have a wonderful Friday!

It's been awhile....

Well....I'm back!  It has been a long crazy week!  I hate the fact that I have not written anything or posted anything lately!  I have quite a few videos I have not posted because I was never able to upload them because of no WI FI!  I will post them soon!  I feel pretty excited about tomorrows weigh in!  I was at 203 2 weeks ago...then gained 2, but I feel like I am at least back to 203...but hopefully lost more!  This week has been a great  eating week..and an ok work out week!  I have been very overwhelmed with everything, but I don't feel like that will make a difference with my weight!  Well.... I hope it won't!  Tomorrow will be a great day, and a great start to another week!  Thank you all for following!  Hope you all have a great weekend!
