Quick post before work!

Still no diagnosis on the car trouble. I'll be taking another car today since it's available. I'm SO hoping it's a cheap fix.

 

Yesterday turned into "get prepared for Live Fit" day! I printed out all the documents I'll need for phase 1, organized a binder with the recipes from the site, and put in the "approved list" of things to have. I plan on following this exactly; at least in the beginning. I know this is a plan for the masses and…

Leaning Tower of Pizza



The hardest part of a diet is when you are faced with the challenge of being around others who aren't and get to eat pretty much whatever they want. I faced my challenge last night. Wanna know if I passed? Well read on and find out.



I had a meeting and my good friend stopped by being accompanied not only by her husband but my best friend Little Caesars. In their hands they carried 2 boxes of pizza, one thick crust drenched in the best smelling cheese… Continue

Well today is our weigh-in day at work for our biggest loser contest and I finally had a decent loss I am down 2lbs!  I feel pretty good about it, I have stepped up my activity and workouts but know I can push myself much harder.  I am a little worried because I am at the number again that I just can't seem to get past, I don't know if it's self sabatoge or my body doesn't want to get any lower but everytime I see 165 on a scale it's just for a day or so and then it's back up again : (  .  I…

ugh, i am not sure what happened with today, but it wasn't my best (possibly caffeine withdrawal, which is kind of the worst.  i don't really know.  but, i'm not giving up.

breakfast: bagel thin, 2T hummus, a couple of slices of deli chicken, slice of cheese [10ish WWPP]

lunch: same thing (take lunch from home) + 1-2 pears [10 WWPP]

dinner: filet of sole trader joe's dinner [5], huge bag of microwaveable…

What the hell is it with that movie? SIX now?! I'm numb, man. I just don't get it.

I don't have much in me tonight. I've been sleeping horribly the last couple of nights. Sunday night there was a big truck outside our window that was using this massive sounding jackhammer for what seemed like an eternity. Then this morning I woke up at 4am and couldn't get back to sleep. And I'm freaking exhausted and ready to sleep!! Oh well, whatever. I worked out pretty hard tonight so I'm hoping…

So I was just checking out the Live Fit program (http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/jamie-eason-livefit-trainer.html) 

I am going to give it a try.  Love that the workouts are already figured out.  I may have to tweak the meal plan a little as I am NOT a supplement fan, but if I make good choices I should be ok.  

Today I made dinner in the crockpot. 

Cut up some more fruit for snacks/breakfasts.

Ate well and tracked everything!

I couldn't seem to motivate myself to workout, but I WILL workout tomorrow.

Also planned out the rest of the weeks dinners and wrote up shopping list.

So it's only 30 days til summer so that means time to take it up a notch. I need to continue with my clean eating and I  will also be starting two-a-days. I realize that I will not be able to do this everyday, but I am aiming for most days. My plan is to continue with Chalean Extreme in the morning and then do TurboFire or Combat at night. I let a friend borrow a bunch of my workout programs and just got them back tonight so I'm super excited to do some of the workouts I haven't done for a…

Another good day in. Maybe I am just finding my groove. Making good choices seems to not be so daunting. Nothing new going on here. Still finding my way. Here is to another good one coming my way.
