Day 2 - 90 Day Fitness Challenge

Today was hard but i ate ok!

Breakfast: Oatmeal and a slice of toast with 0 calorie spray butter

Lunch: Salad

Dinner: Baked Chicken, small salad, green beans and brown rice

Desert: Yogurt with a cup of granola

Overall I did ok but missed my snacks again. I know thats sooo bad for me but I need to consistantly be eating small meals to keep my metabolism up.

I did Barrys Bootcamp upper body then did Code red, OMG it was sooo hard my arms legs and back hurt but its suppose to be good. We shall see if I can keep that up!

Let me know if you want to join the fitness challenge i would love to do it with someone else so we can motivate each and be accountable for everything we eat and do!

Hit you back tomorrow!

Day 1 - 90 Day Fitness Challenge

So today is not officially Day 1 but I decided to start blogging about it so to everyone else its Day 1 of my fitness challenge.

Starting specs are

183 pds

Goal: 130

Now I know i probably wont lose 50 pds in 90 days but lets try and get as close as possible.

So far I did Lower body 21 minute work out with Barrys Bootcamp and upper body 12 min mission specialist.

Both kicked my butt and thats exaclty what I needed.

Breakfast: Yogurt and 1 cup of vanilla granola

Lunch: nothing (i know its bad for me not to eat)

Dinner: Small steak, brown rice, vegetable medley with a dash of cheese

Desert:Yogurt and 1 cup of vanilla granola

My main goal is going to be to eat more consistantly, I have a problem not eating all day long then eating a bunch at dinner time. As you see today I skipped lunch and hopefully I wont do that tomorrow!

That was my day and I think it was pretty sucessful only 89 days to go.

90 Day Fitness Challenge

I have decide to join one of my networking groups in a 90 day fitness challenge! We have to work really hard for 90 days and see what kind of results we can get! I am really excited about this because I will be accountable to someone and that means I have to exercise and eat right.

I think this is just what I need to get back in shape and lose some weight.

Wish me luck!

Give Up or Move On??

So my question today is give up or move on, I would say in the past 2 months I have only lost 5 pds if that, it really makes me want to give up.. i keep telling myself it is better to keep trying but i feel like what for??

I dont eat bad and barely anything, i workout 4-5 days out of the week and nothing happens... so the question is what next?? anyone have any experimental weight loss drugs they want to try??
I am sooo down to be the genine pig..

anyway sooo frustrated and having a hard time trying to move on

Working Hard and not much payoff

So do you ever feel like you eat right or barely anything at all, workout on a regular basis and there is not much result?? That is sooo how i am feeling right now. I havent lost a single inch and it makes me sooo depressed! It really makes me want to give up on the whole thing. what will it take to lose some weight?? I workout on a regular basis and it seems to do nothing, im getting pretty good my endurance is up and i can work harder for the time I do workout but what for?? i feel like nothing is happening.. anyway just my little blurb about it a honestly it makes me depressed.. I read somewhere that if you are stressed it can effect your weight.. sooo the next question is how do you fix that?? I cannot really eliminate the stress in my life, I can probably deal with it better but the stress is still there.. Any thoughts??? Anyone out there??

Replacement Shakes

I have decided to incorporate fruit shakes into my diet. I really like it and they are filling, I drink them all day long while snacking on salad, bagels etc. I enjoy drinking them and its quick easy and good for you. Cant beat that you should try it!

Making Progress

Last week I was brave enough to step on the scale! I was soooo hesitant because its just usually depressing, I was excited to find out I had lost 15 pds. YAY! So its cool to see I lost weight but I havent lost a single inch.. Isnt that weird?? I thought inches usually come off before the weight.. so I feel lighter but I dont think I look lighter.. close are not really looser.. anyway i guess i should be greatful for the 15 pds lol

Daily Journal

So I am one day late with this one but here we go!

I woke up really early this morning in hopes to get into a different schedule and the day was pretty good.

1. Bowl of Oatmeal
2. veggan chicken sandwich for lunch
3. 2 peices of licorice
4. turkey burger for dinner with a handful of tater tots

Ok so this by far was one of the better days, didnt eat too much and it wasnt too terrible, lets pray i can continue this all week long

Day 1

Ok so I must say that today started out well and it always does. I work out every morning, I do the eliptical for 60 minutes, sit ups, work out my arms with a tension band, use the "leg magic" machine and im done! So about 1.5 hrs every day , every work day i mean so only 5 days a week.

Working out is not my problem! Look at the menu!

1. ate my multigrain apple crisps - 100 calories *** (the stars because its ok to eat)
2. Apple Bees (we went out for valentines day but no excuse to eat bad) Oriental Chicken Salad - salads are good but this one i know has tons of calories in the dressing
3. Appetizers of mozerella sticks, and chips with Artichoke and spinach dip - BAD BAD BAD i cleared the plate and wanted more!
4. Gosh I cannot forget the midnight stop to Cold Stone

You will see I have only really eaten 2 complete meal and the choice was bad. All the working out I did this morning well i can foget it, I ate bad all day so I wont lose a pound this week.

Ok so I can use the excuse it was Valentines Days but really this happens a lot. I dont wanta cook and theres nothing better than a fat hamburger from Farmer Boys... If I do not leave the house i eat ok but if you suggest we go out to eat im doomed!

Also I work from home and usually really really busy so cooking basically sucks!

The Whole Truth and Nothing But the Truth

So I have decided that from here on out I am going to tell everyone what I ate, if I exercised and how I feel about it! You are only going to get the whole truth from me and nothing but the truth! I think if I start writing this stuff down maybe we will start seeing a pattern, oh and of course if I tell you how bad I was please SLAP me back into a good lifestyle and not let the food control me! Are you ready to be accountable? (im totally hesitant only because I know I am going to embarrass myself) Ready Set Go!

Welcome!

So I am very excited about this new blog and I hope all will join me in the venture of losing weight! I have been trying to lose weight for over a year now with little progress. I have tried diet pills, fad diets, exercise machines and nothing worked. I finally figured that maybe if I ban together with others suffering from the same problems that we can lose weight together. I have no clue if it will work but I figured its worth a try we have tried everything else right??

So please comment daily on your progress as I will do the same. Lets help each other be accountable for our weight loss and maybe a little support will help us along the way!
