Progress


Life is a challenge.  From the moment you wake up to the moment you fall asleep at night we are CHALLENGED!  Week two and going strong.  This week down 2 pounds.  I deserve every bit of those 2 nasty pounds.  I worked until I almost vomited at least 6 times.  Yep, vomit!  I ate my healthy meals and was challenged when dessert time came around.  I am proud of my progress.  Slowly and surely.  Goal for this next week is to drink lots of water, stay away from sugar, and exercise until I almost vomit again.  Sounds like a friggin blast huh?  Well, thanks to my trainer Jeralyn - I have the motivation to keep going.

YIPPEE

So I weighed in on Monday and the results were amazing!  4.5 pounds of nastiness is now off of my body. Can I just say how jived I am about it?  I have never worked so hard and been so faithful.  This weeks menu is awesome.  Jeralyn has made this a lifestyle change and not a DIET.  I forgot I'm not suppose to say that word.  My attitude is changing a bit.  I feel more positive about life in general.  I have always been a positive person, but this has given me a swift kick in the butt.




Breakfast - Stuffed French Toast with berries

Snack - Peanut butter and apples

Lunch - Turkey Tortilla Wrap

Snack - Green Protein Shake

Dinner - Baked Taco Potato

Exercise has been a little harsh.  I wanted to vomit the last two times I worked out, but I guess that just means I am working hard.

Monday - Spinning 1 hour / weights

Tuesday - Skate Ski or Running

Wednesday - Spinning 1 hour / Weights

Thursday - HIIT

Friday - HIIT/ Weights

Saturday - HIIT

Sunday - REST

And the saga begins . . . .

I really don't know how it all started, but it started and now I am trapped.  Trapped with a commitment to a friend and trainer who I know will be checking in on me to make sure I am doing all that I can to be a healthy fit me.

Trust me, change is scary.  Weight is scary!  Monday's weight 177.5.  WTH??? has happened to me???
I met up with Jeralyn over at www.fitsgreaterthanskinny.com and she has provided me with everything I need for the next 12 weeks.  I will be blogging my journey to fitness.  Let's begin!

I have this amazing book.  It will help me keep track of my daily meals, exercise, and emotions while on this journey.  I am currently on day 6 and haven't had to resort to the mad house for chocolate withdrawals.  Let me tell you I am a CHOCOHOLIC!  I have to have it or else things go real bad.   My poor husband doesn't know what to do when I don't have chocolate.  Well, let me just say . . . I have been clean for 6 whole days!!!  MIRACLE!!  Not sure on the weight loss yet, but Monday is weigh day and for once in my life I am excited!
