Happy Egg Day!

Happy Egg Day to everyone! I'm off to a family lunch in a bit. I know that there will be ham and probably raw veggies with dip. I'm going to try to stick to that and only have a small bit of any tempting, unhealthy things that may be there.

I'm going to try to fit in some Wii Fit after I get home. =)

Have a great day! =)

Sick again.....blah!

So after my month of the flu, I started to get back on track. I just went back to normal, healthy eating and was about to add exercise when I got a terrible tummy flu. I was really sick for two days, but my tummy felt bad for about 4 or 5 days after that. I went back to eating fast, easy junk and didn't work out because it hurt to move around too much. I wanted to get started back on eating well and working out this Monday......Monday decided to be the start of "that time of the month". I've felt icky all week! Ugg! I did start eating better this week and plan to workout today if I stop feeling icky. I should feel well by tomorrow. I'm trying not to let these set backs get me down. I feel like I've been sick for about 2 months straight now. Ugg!

I need a plan and here it is:

I've gone shopping for lots of healthy foods. I have a gym membership, but my gym is a 20-30 minute drive away. I'm thinking of purchasing a second gym membership at the gym that is about 5 minutes away. I know that it will cost more for me, but I think that I will workout more often if I have a closer place to go to. The gym I have is all high-tech and fancy, but sometimes I talk myself out of going because it's almost an hour in drive time there and back. I feel guilty spending the extra money on a second gym membership, but I need to get healthy. I feel that this is what might work for me.

Sick For A Whole Month!

I've  not posted in about a month now. I got a cold that lingered and evolved for a month.

Week 1-sneezing
Week 2-congested and fever
Week 3-outer ear infection
Week 4-inner ear infection

I stayed in bed a ton, stopped cooking healthy food, and stopped excercising for this time. I gained 3 pounds.....which is so bad I suppose.

I'm all better now! Today I'm going to belly dance class and then will go shopping to stock up on healthy foods to cook. =)

Happy first weekend of Spring!

Exercise Challenge!

I"ve been having a hard time exercising on the weekdays. My weeks get soooo busy that I never fit it in.

My exercise challenge for this week is to fit 2 days of exercise in before next weekend. That will give me 3 days of exercise for the week because I'm about to go workout right now.

El Sicko.....

 I've still got a crummy cold. I've not been able to work out and have mostly been in bed resting. I've not been eating all that much, but have been trying to drink because I feel dehydrated. Blah!

One More Pound To Hit The 20 Pound Mark!

 I'm excited today. I'm only one pound away from having lost 20 pounds.

.....now....if I could just get rid of this pesky cold I have.


I Hit My V-Day Goal! =)

Woohooo! I finally broke through that pesky 219 that I've been stuck at for a month! I woke up today at 217.

This weeks goals are:

Keep eating healthier foods.

Reduce my portions a tiny bit.

Take my suppliments and vitamins.

When I do crave a "Less Healthy" food try having a small bit of it.

Exercise at least 3 times.

My goal for today is to: workout and make healthy choices at our family Valentine's Day/B-Day party. It should be a piece of cake.....or a small bite or two.

Valentine's Day Goal

My goal for Valentine's Day was to be at 214. That's still 5 pounds away. Valentine's Day is in 6 days. I don't think it's possible to make. I've been stuck where I'm at for several weeks now. I might change my Valentine's Day goal to being breaking through 219 to 218. We'll see.......

I'm off to WiiFit!  

First month down!

I didn't want to take stats on the 1st because TOM was hanging around. =)

Here they are:

11-1-08 234 Ibs 47.8% Body Fat

1-1-09 224 Ibs 45.2% Body Fat

2-4-09 219 Ibs 43.4% Body Fat

My goal was to lose a total of 20 pounds by Valentine's Day. I'm shooting for 214 by the 14th. Oh man that's only 10 days! I'd better get busy!

Superbowl Sunday!

 I did 30 minutes on my Wiifit this morning. We are BBQ'n Beer Can Chicken today with veggies and a big salad.....yummy and healthy! =)
