In an effort to not be too perfectionist about my nutrition, I will usually allow myself a “free” meal or treat once a week. Usually it’s not too crazy, just something that usually doesn’t really fit into my nutrition plan because it’s really carb-heavy or higher in fat. That something can be a piece or [...]
- My Current Belt Rank Is:
Spark Progress
So now that I am a little over a week into the SparkPeople system, I will share how I’m doing. I’m doing fantasic, thank you for asking! After the first week I have lost 3 lbs. I’m not measuring inches, just going by how my clothes fit, because I’ve learned that for me the measuring [...]
SparkPeople
You know how I keep joking that when it comes to working for myself I’m a pretty slackadaisical boss? I’ve known for quite some time that I work well when under somebodies direction. I pretty much live for carrying out orders, looking for approval, and doing it better than anyone else. Not only that, but [...]
Scrub the Chub
In an effort to keep myself honest, I’m going to post my weight loss stats here. Starting Weight: 190 lbs. (ugh! although I’ve been told I carry it well, everybody thinks I’m at least 20 lbs. lighter than I really am) Chest: 43″ (braless measure because my bras make this measurement vary) Waist: 36.5″ Hips: [...]
Baby Steps
Since discontinuing my training, I have put on some weight. It was inevitable since I went from 3+ days a week training to none. My pants are a wee bit tight and I need to try to get myself moving again. Gardening helps, but it’s not always a workout, nor would I want it to [...]
P90X = Ooof
Well, well, well, what have we here? Amy decided to take the plunge, step up her game, and jump into P90X. I’ve been at the same state of fitness for several months now, and while I’m happy here, for the most part, I really would like a smokin’ bod at least once in my life. [...]
I’m a Loser
With all the extra time spent on my ass a few weeks ago feeling sorry for myself, I was sure I was going to put on some poundage. Surprisingly, I weighed myself this week and I’ve lost 5 lbs. in the past 2 months. I’m attributing some of that to the intense workouts I got [...]
Looking for Something….More
Was chatting with Skwigg tonight after coming across a fitness program called P90X that sounded intriguing, as does the Red Carpet workouts she’s been doing. I’ve come to a point where I feel like I need something…more. Something with structure that tells me what I need to do and what to eat. The soreness I [...]
Getting over myself
I’ve been tired all day. I think taking a two week out of town vacation made TKD hit me all that much harder when I came back. My abs have been KILLING me today and my whole body kind of aches. Oh, and this morning I woke myself up when I pushed on my elbow [...]
