Week 3!

Hello! Well I am in week three of my weight loss. I did not gain nor did I lose any weight! Which is the good and the bad news! I would rather not lose any then gain anymore! I have been diligent in my eating habits, and even snacked less this past weekend. I am still at 247 pounds, just like I was last week.

Before I get into my goals for the week, and things that need improvement, I just have to gloat for a simple moment! I went to the gym last night for a full hour! I usually only went for 30-45 minutes... but this was amazing! I worked on the elliptical and the treadmill for 16 minutes each. On the treadmill I ran longer then I have in a long time! The elliptical I worked my buns off... literally! I went backwards on it and work my butt!

After working on some cardio I went and worked my legs and arms on the weights! It felt amazing! I went with Bri to her gym Planet Fitness and that was really good! I usually go to my gym which is Gold's Gym. Both offer the same workouts, one just happens to be more quaint than the other. I am not saying which one I like better since Bri's was free to go to since I am her buddy and she has the membership, and the other one we pay for. Both are amazing! I think just going to a gym is a big deal, it is half the battle as they say any how!

Well these are the goals this week:

  1. Continue to go to the gym. I think I like working on the machines a lot to get out the stress of the day.
  2. Go buy fruits. I do not have any fruits to add to my diet!
Here is the quote of the week:

This is something I try to live by! Confidence is the most important factor to be successful in life. It took me some time to get my confidence, but I am working on becoming more confident and striving for the best me  I can be!!!

Oh and I fixed my weight loss so the ticker at the top of the page is accurate weight loss.


Until Next Week!!!

The Ugly Truth

Image
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 ...

The Ups and Downs of the Weight Loss Rollar Coaster!

Image
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...

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...
