Before After

had the flu..

And I lost about 5 pounds. It was awful but hell the weightloss is great, that's if it stays off! I finally figured out what I need as for calories and as for exercise so I can loose about 2 pounds a week!

So here I go!

No sugar?

This is impossible everything has sugar! Someone help me!

Trying this no sugar thing.

A few people commented about my issue and one of the tips was no sugar and carbs. So today I am doing just that! I will post later what I ate and I am going to see if I can count the calories. Here I go! :)
 
And thanks for all the comments it has really helped me and keeping my hope alive for a slimmer figure!
 
off to a photoshoo! ( I take photos):)

its been a while. and I need help.

I am at the point now that I really want to be healthy and slim. I never had a flat belly and want one so badly what are the best ways? And is it possible for me to achive flat abs?

Also..
My workout routine is
30 Minutes elliptical

Setting Hill Plus with intervals.

Treadmill

Pace 3.5-4.0
Setting Normal
Incline 5.0

Swimming 15-30 Minutes (every other day)
Lap swimming (freestyle, kickboard)
Pace High pace (rest 60 seconds ever 2 laps)

Strength Training
various weight machines in the gym. I do 3 set of 12.
Free weights (10pounds)
Also every other night I do a routine by Jillian Michaels. it’s a 20 Minute routine.

So why haven't I dropped that much just a few pounds! I just started this routine but I was doing elliptical/swimming and ST. Will I see something soon? I did start a food journal, i have to say I hate it but I am doing it. Also what are good foods to flatten my abs?

Also I am 5'6 ..my weight really is just my stomach and inner thighs. I have a ruler shape very straight down, no hips.

No wonder America is FAT!

Look at this people, why would anyone let there restaurant serve such unhealthy meals! The kids now are so heavy they can't move away from the couch, computer and video games. I have a cousin who is very thin but still eats NOTHING but junk food and I am not kidding, he thinks he's "immune" to it and won't get fat. It will all catch up with you him sooner or later! But he won't listen! I am just outraged that people eat this garbage. I have to say I will not go to these restaurant hardly anymore! Its just not worth it! I’d rather just go home and cook and know what I am eating! Who came up with a 2,300 calorie milkshake? Really thats a heart attack coming through a straw!

Later off to the gym!

What the hell!

I eat right, for the most part. I have a soda or slice of pizza once in a while but I've been really good. But ya think I am loosing no! Unless my scale is broke, which I think it is I am gaining! :( So today I did more cardio, tomorrow weights and of course cardio! I am going nuts! I want to loose!
 
 

Put on deodorant thats all I ask! Oh and BONES tonight!

I got to the gym today to get it out the way cause BONES comes on tonight after a 3 week Hiatus! So I decided to go early and get it out the way. Well I went to the weight room first did that and then headed over to the cardio room well I get on the elliptical and this woman smelled so badly with BO! Come on is it really that hard to put on deodorant? I had to leave early because it was making me sick and I really thought if I didn't get out of there I would vomit! I am a little annoyed because I got gypped out of my work out because she doesn't know how to use deodorant! So tomorrow I am going to go early again but double up my cardio to make up for today! Hopefully she’s not there!

My goal dress!

 

Lauren Conrad. I just hope the price comes down a bit! Its a bit pricy!

 

New workout capris!

Since I lost 6 pounds I rewarded myself with a new pair of yoga/workout capris! So I got these, just the top fold over thing is black and not those colors. I don't need any attention just yet with such bright colors! And I got some new flip flops! The locker room at my gym well its nice but its not the cleanest! Well here is to another week! And hopefully another 6 pounds!

 

Thank god for Rob Thomas!

I have been pushing myself and well a six pound weight loss is the reward! And if it wasn't for Rob and the song "Smooth" I wouldn't push through those last 5 mins of my workouts! HAHA! Also others who get me through the workouts, Kelly Clarkson, her new album is amazing and well it makes you wanna go faster and harder on the eliptical and treadmill!
