Day 3

I cant weight to weigh myself again, its going to be very easy to get to my goal this way...

Day 3, count down to fitness!

Stay fit!

Back at it!

Did you doubt me for one second?

I went to the gym this morning feeling unsure of how my leg would feel, but, as it goes it felt fine:) I guess I needed that brief (1 day) break, that's right a whole day...lol.

My husband asked me how my leg felt when I got in from the gym, I said " better thanks" he just looked at me with a smirk. If I were to guess what that smirk meant it would probably be "yeah right, it still hurts you idiot, but, you'll never learn", now of course you know if he actually said what he was thinking, it would have been a fight!...lol, he knew it to that's why he opted for the smirk.

Actually, it didn't hurt at all, at one point I was sweating so hard, I began willing it to hurt, just so I would have an excuse to get off the eliptical trainer. Im like a maniac, whatever cardio routine Im doing,I have to challenge myself everytime...its wild, its like Im out of control...lol.

Well, Im offski, I'll blog to you all later.

Stay fit!

Ick!

That's exactly how I feel today. I didnt go to the gym this morning, I needed a rest. I did 5 days last week instead of my 6, but, I ran everyday, which isn't good, just to compensate the 1 day I didn't go. Oooooooooooooohhh Lord, when did I become so obsessed?!

My eating habits really haven't changed, I hardly eat during the day and try to compensate at night. I still restrict my food intake, I eat low fat, low cal, high carb ( to compensate my work out schedule), but, its not working for me obviously.

I haven't been on the scale, so I could be at my goal (doubt it) and not even know it...sheesh! too much to hope for at one time.

I hope everyone else is doing well and feeling less crappy.

Take care and Stay fit!

Nothing special

Today was an absolutely beautiful day, bright and sunny. I went to the gym and ran 5 and 1/2 miles in under an hour...wooo hooo! left and came home to hang out with my hubby. We were going to go out, but, decided not to, we just worked on seperate projects around the house. Very relaxing sunday.

My tummy has been relatively upset all day long, I've tried ignoring it, but, it doesn't seem to want to go away. I refuse to read too much into it, Im just going to allow nature to run its course...lol, hopefully nature will be merciful and take care of matters soon, IF you know what I mean...hee hee.

Hope everyone had a wonderful sunday.

Stay fit!

Wow where have I...

...been for the last 6 days? sheesh, I didn't think it was that long since I posted to my blog, but, the numbers do not lie people, I haven't made a post since last sunday??!

I felt so good in the shops today, so proud of myself, so thin, so wonderful, so sexy. I tried on a size 14 and it was too big and I looked and felt great!

I have to say, exercise does definitely work in a girls favor. My tummy is so wonderfully flat, I haven't had to wear a waist cincher in forever!! As you can see I haven't moved my weight down yet, thats because I haven't been on the scale in a long time, but, I know Im losing, I can see it and feel it in my clothes :).

I have decided to stop restricting my food intake, however, I am planning on cutting down on the carbs, but, Im not going to deprive myself of a treat from time to time, I have for so many years now and my body has started to revolt.

Low fat and High Carb just isnt good for you, its more on the lines of Low Carb, Low Fat (only good fats) and High Protein, as for me I think, Low Fat, Mid line Carbs and Mid LIne protein might do the trick, especially since I restrict my fats and proteins, these are the things I have to correct.

Im an enthusiastic (hard) exerciser, but, I am an awful nutritionist...lol.

Stay fit!

Im Okay...

...and all is well here in boring NJ. I shouldnt say "boring" because things are only as bad as we make them right? WRONG! In my opinion if you've lived in the same state most your life and if nothing really changes, with the exception of things that are really of no consequence then what the hey right? WRONG!

 You have to make the best of things, if it was as easy as complaining about your environment, we would all do it without a doubt, but, thats not what we were put here for, we were created to make a difference, or evolved, whatever the case may be for some of us evolutionist, which I am not, so dont get confused when I use the term "some of us", cause Im not, not, not. I totally believe in creation (Thank you Lord)

Today I plan to do something, what? Im not sure, but, something is better then nothing.

I might go shopping, for a ride, to the book store, to see a friend (NOT!), or just for a relaxing walk, whatever the case may be, Im going to try to enjoy myself. My husband is being his typical dull and boring computer glued to his finger tips and eye balls self, so Im not even going into that one.

I spoke to my sister the other day about weight loss, its really sad considering my sister used to be smaller then me. She's shorter then I am, so it makes it even worse on her and now she has leg problems, but doesn't understand its because she is over weight.

Before losing the bulk of my weight (140lbs), I generated all sorts of health issues. If I knew then, what I know now, I would have never allowed my weight to get so out of hand, it literally ran amok. Now Im in control and have been for the last 5 years, I try to help my sister with her issues, she say's I inspire her, but, then again she has a problem sticking to a plan. I love her so I dont pressure her, then again, if you love someone shouldn't you try harder to help them? I wouldn't agree in this case, my sister is a sensitive being and I dont want to push her away from me.

Hasseling people about there weight is a big relationship breaker.

Blog again soon.

Stay fit Chica's! 

I can admit to my jealousy

...sniff.

I'm feeling a little defeated here. Im at a stand still and I have been on and off for years.

I dont get how many people are losing weight so good and here I am working out like a beast of burden and Im not losing anything.

I work out 6 days a week, I either run 6 miles in an hour, or work out on the eliptical trainer for an hour, I burn between 850-950cals along with what my body burns normally. I dont overeat and I dont undereat. I snack at night yes, but, I dont eat heavy during the day and I only snack on organic popcorn, or salt free pretzels and teddy grahams.

This really stucks, its almost like it doesn't matter what I do, I'll never get to my goal. I want to be happy and upbeat but its difficult at times.

Im so happy for those of you who can treat yourselves and still lose the weight. I dont eat fried foods, pasta, cake, or candy for fear I'll put on even more weight and lose nothing.

I am totally discouraged.

Sorry to be so humdrum.

Mini Vacation

A day off from work is the BEST medicine for a weary mind, I went to the gym at 11am instead of 5am. I woke up at 457am insteam of 337am (dont ask).

I slow cooked our dinner all night and half the morning....ahhhh, its just a wonderful feeling not hearing "waaa waaaa" this and "waaa waaa" that, or "me, I, me and I" this and "me, me, me, I, I, I" that, hallajuah! what a day.

I wish I married rich, then it could be like this most days for me, I will tell you one thing, I would be thin, thin, thin! Hey, with nothing else to do but exercise, I say to ye :Yes Please!

I shall return later, I have a bit of shopping to do before picking up the hubble bubble.

Stay fit you sexy females!

Yes I know...

...was my reply today when my friend Cindy pointed out how long I can hold a grudge.."Yes I know" was my reply. She doesn't understand, which is understandable, then again, I dont have to make excuses for her, the bottom line is, if you get on my nerves one to many times, Im going to show you my disappointment.

I can drag out a grudge a little too long, but that's because the person has exceeded the extent of my patience, which are short at times.  I never set out to be mean , its just that things that are done or said to hurt my feelings, will always receive negative results.

I have friday and monday off of work, woo hoo! I cant wait, I need, need, need, this mini vacation, you just dont know how much.

Stay true to your efforts Chica's and you will definitely ...

Stay fit!

LOL!!!

Thank you ladies for correcting my last blog...lol. I have a serious problem with hearing anything the way its actually said, no, I dont think I have a hearing problem, its more like a short attention span problem...lol.

Well, we celebrated (or not) our 2nd anniversary yesterday (or not), but, I wont go into the details, there really weren't any that's why...lol. Hubby got me a beautiful diamond anniversary band, that I've choosen to wear on my ring finger, since it enhances my engagement ring. I know, I know, Im a real vain person, Im not really, I just like nice things that's all.

Yipppeeeeee! my 5 weeks of class are over, I'll start again soon, but, no time soon...lol! It was pure torture, even though it is on line, its just that with a full time job and the responsibilities I have at that job, well, you can just imagine, its just a bit much at times.

Well, I cut down on exercise for a little while, Im not sure if you can really call it cutting down, but that was the ideal. Instead of going to the gym 6 days, I was going 5 days for 2 weeks, one thing I noticed is, I dont feel AS guilty when Im not there more, I dont know, maybe I should see a psychiatrist or something...NOT! I dont think so, before you know it, that person will unearth some awful little detail I've hidden in the back of my mind all these years, such as, I am my own grandpaw, or something to that effect....lol!

I truly love to exercise, sometimes I wish I didn't, but, I do I really do, phooey! no one I know likes to exercise like me, its not as if they dont NEED the exercise, they just wont commit themselves like I do...phooey! (what does that mean anyway...phooey?) I must have lost my mind long ago, that is with the assumption that I ever had one (a mind) to begin with...lol.

Stay fit! Im off to the gym...again (sigh)
