Before After

ok

Had a big cry today i'm feeling very emotional aunt flo is less then a week away and it wrecks havoc on me every month. So here is whats up I did the elliptical.....twice today YAY me! 15mins this morning and 10 mins after dinner to keep from wanting to eat cereal after I'd ate more then enough dinner.  I'm just an emotional mess so hopefully i can get that under control.

what wrong with me

I'm getting comfortable with where I've gotten. Help I need to get back on track. I need a loss so I feel like i'm not losing it completely. Things are working against me I can't explain on here so pm me if you really want to know, because I have found out some people read this that i would rather didn't (no one who uses ep) I'm stressed and I dont know how to change it. I'm exercising 3 times a week. I could do more but it just seems to make me hungry. I need to take a deep breath and figure out why everything is jumbled in my head maybe I just need a break period.

Thanks for the support

I'm grouchy today! Be forewarned! I've lost 37lbs since sept 25 (5 months), I'm at 238. The hubby asked me what the goal weight was for R&R which could be as early as 5 months but at the latest 6 or 7 months. Well I told him the goal was 200lbs, and he says well you better start starving yourself. I mean before he asked what the goal weight was for r&r he wished me gl with it, but then to say that talk about a confidence/esteem deflater.I want him to be proud of me and encouraging. But I'm not doing it for that reason does that make sense. I'm doing it because I want to be healthier and feel sexier for me.
Ok so there is my grumblie rant. I love my husband, and I don't think he meant that in the hurtful way it came out. But yea I had to rant a bit about it.

Taebo Amped

is an ass kicker lol! its going to take me a couple of days to be able to do the whole first video. WOW my arms feel like jello. Haven't checked in in a few days. Going to have to go around and read up on how everyone is doing!!!
 
Ps got a little extra workout in. Son hid the keys so we had to walk to pick up the daughter from prek today!

Bought it

Taebo amped that is. I really love taebo and although billy can be a bit cheesy he's no where near as bad as people like denise austin lol so i'm excited to try it out! Hopefully I will have time today. But Daniel has a list of errands I need to run for him so we will see.

Down 2lbs

Well tons of good news today, first i'm down 2 lbs yay! More good news best buy decided my computer had a bad hard drive and exchanged it for a brand new one YAY! now if the hubby could just call so I could tell him the day would be wonderful!

Valentines Day

 Well the son dropped my brand new laptop and now it won't start :( but I got a beautiful bouquet of flowers from the husband with a card that made me smile so yea here I am smiling with them haha


UGH How does it happen

That you can be feeling great one min and then next be sicker then a dog. Ugh its terrible my head feels like a giant balloon please some one stick it. Blah i feel terrible. I want to hide in bed like the whole weekend. Its v-day tomorrow and I don't expect anything, the hubby hates vday so i can imagine it will be a depressing day! Anyways done with my pity party lol! Have a great weekend everyone!

Getting my breakfast on

So I think that the reason i've been overeating at nite is because I'm not eating breakfast. The problem is i'm just not hungry (I've been trying to train myself to listen to the tummy and not eat unless its hungry) But if it will keep me from binge eating at dinner I think I can make myself eat. Tonite we have our first frg meeting since the guys left so the leader is buying pizza. I had thought about fixing dinner before I go but then I know me and  I would just eat dinner and eat pizza at the meeting so i'm just going to go to the meeting and eat pizza. Not good for me but at least I won't eat two meals.

So I wrote this in a comment on sonya82's blog and I reliazed I should have just put it in my blog lol, I am disappointed because I haven't lost a size in clothes and I've lost 34lbs. But when I look back at the pictures I realize I was just cramming myself into the same clothes I wear now. I should have been wearing a bigger size but refused to admit i needed new clothes. SO technically I've lost a size its just it doesn't seem like it....

My thighs are a problem area for me they are thunderous lol and I really want to lose some inches off them. I've been looking at leg magic at walmart for sometime now. Has anyone used it or know anyone who has? Just curious about it

Fabulous Start

 to the day that is! We got our tax refund WOOT WOOT! Paid off tons of bills and hubby says I can go get a new phone (mine barely comes on) and a laptop YAY! PLUS when I got on the scale this morning it said 241 HOoaH lol! ok i gotta go cause I have lots of errands to run but had to share my excitement!
