Success!

So this week was pretty successful! I am down a total of five pounds. I am not even sure how I accomplished this. I did not think I did well on my diet this past week, but then again I did not eat a lot either. My parents were out of town so I just ate healthier but like I was in college again. For exercise I mowed the lawn and did house work, I had NO time to make it to the gym! This week I am going to start walking at lunch again (which is this week) and I am going to try and do something better in my diet!

Every morning I drink a weight loss shake, and for lunch I try to pack something healthy. Then for dinner we are going to eat healthy too!

I found this cool blog that is awesome for finding you some Healthy Lunch Box Ideas! (Click on "Healthy Lunch Box Ideas" to get to the web page!)

Also if you are having a hard time click here it is a simulator to show how you would look at a specific weight! Awesome!

I also made these kinds of jars, except instead of them being tall they are short and the wording is "Yesterday" and "Today". So that way the jars could be used for something else. The pack of marbles have 60 in them so I mean that is a good chunk of weight! You could also use money like a dollar per pound and that could go towards a new kind of outfit. Sadly the link is linked to a deleted blog! So I cannot give this person credit! I am so sorry! I will post my own picture next week... if I remember.

That right there is my goal for the week!

Until next week

The Ugly Truth

I am sure you have all read the numerous blogs about the life changing transformations that men and women go through. Well I have too. I read them, and I think "well I can do that!". It is not until you stand in front of your mirror one day, and are trying to look good in the biggest item of clothing you own, which you just bought... it puts a damper on a girls mood. So by some stroke of genius I decided that it was time to truly full heartily commit to weight loss. Now let me tell you my story, then I will continue on with this one: So it is safe to say that my weight issues started in seventh grade. I am not pointing fingers at anyone to say who's fault my weight gain was. I used to think it was my mom and dad for all the pressure of weight loss they put on me for a long time. But it was just my stubborn mentality that I was fine. In Seventh grade I started on the Atkins diet, because we thought it was a necessary measure. Then it literally began from there. I knew

An Update on Keto (progress pics included)

Hey there! I am 8 weeks on Keto and everything is going really well! Here are some highlights for you: I am down 9 Pounds Clothes are getting looser Easier to bend  Easier to walk More Energy I am an official size 24 in these "jeggings" from Maurices I love.  Downsides: Certain pants still don't fit around my belly, this is to be expected because I am just starting to lose in my butt and legs.  Favorite Keto Snacks:  Cottage cheese and berries Sugar-Free Jello (the actual brand Jello, none of this snack pack business) Starbucks Keto Drink After much searching and trying, I found it!  Venti Coffee Frap - replace the milk with 1/2 water and 1/2 cream, add 2 shots of sugar-free vanilla syrup. Almonds I am not a "HARDCORE" kind of a keto gal, I don't make food with coconut flour; however, I do try to make a few things like Keto Cookie Dough (linked in my last post) and I also just try to make sure to have cheese and other p

The Ups and Downs of the Weight Loss Rollar Coaster!

Weight Loss... it is a rollar coaster! One minute you are doing completely wonderful... then you are down 20 pounds, then one day everything changes, and your weight goes from plus 5 pounds down 5 pounds, so on an so forth. The last few months of 2013 were hard. Not only with the Holidays, but my lack of self control, self confidance, and my motivation. Well for 2014 I decided to get right back on my weight loss, and my gym time. I started back on January 2, 2014 (let's face it, the first day of the new year does not count, it is still a holiday). I feel energized and I feel motivated! I have been to the gym 3 times, doing vigorous activity like the Arc Trainer. I took a day off yesterday cause I was ill... and I MISSED the gym! Today it is snowing and the roads look terrible, so I am not sure if I am going to make it tonight either... so I researched some great apps and videos. I have Hulu+, Amazon Prime, and Netflix to cure my need for video as well. Here is an App I found that
