An Update

So I know I haven't updated this blog in a while...

I just wanted to let everyone know that I was still working on this weight loss thing..

For the past two weeks straight I have been working out at Gold's Gym...This place is the shizzzznittt..

For some reason just walking into that place pumps me up to work my butt off and exercise...I have found my niche in the exercise universe...LOL..

Crippled....

Ok so apparently I am crippled....the more hours go by the stiffer my legs get....It is now nearly impossible to raise my ass from any seat...toilet..car..sofa..desk..well you get the picture..

Needless to say Tae Bo will not be taking place today..

And the treadmill thing will probably not happen either...Better luck tomorrow..

Tuesday Morning...

Billy Blanks' Tae-Bo Cardio

So I got up this morning and had lost 2.2 pounds!! Guess Rabbitt food isn't so bad for you after all..

Today I am going to be doing Billy Blanks' Tae-Bo Cardio. It's kind of a long workout so I seriously doubt I will make it all the way through...especially since just getting up and down off the couch and the *ahem* toilet is a challenge for me today....Guess I actually do have muscles in my tushie after all...sad to say but I guess I haven't been using them for much lately so yesterday they got a good workout and now they are not happy with me at all. So here's my goal for today...Get through at least 25 minutes of the Tae Bo cardio and walk for 30 minutes on the treadmill. I would also like to get 8 glasses of either Propel Fitness Water or plain water down...

So that is my goal for today in a nutshell...I am off to murder myself with Tae Bo...will check back in later today to let you know how it is going..

Afternoon Update..

Ok...so for lunch today I had a subway sweet onion chicken terriyaki sub on wheat with spinach black olives, and red onions and salt and pepper with some sun chips and a diet coke...

Then when I got home I got on the treadmill and walked 1 mile and burned 161 calories. (almost burned off those sun chips!!)

Wish me luck for tonight cause I am getting into the danger zone now...for some reason after 5pm I get an appetite like a grizzly bear...Gonna go have a sugar free popsicle now(only 30 calories and no fat)....

Darn!!

Salad Dressing, Ginger & Sesame, 12 oz.

So maybe tomorrow I will do the Pilates first and the other workout second...I just couldn't get those moves down today...my legs and butt hurts so bad from the box climbs on the other tape that I couldn't do the Pilates movements. So I guess I will have to settle for 30 minutes of Metaboost and a 30 minute walk today...I am going to do the walk later this afternoon while I watch my soap or Dr. Phil.

Anyways, I am starving so I am going to go and eat some Rabbit Food(Salad)....sounds yummy huh??

At least I get to use good dressing..yum...

Today's Progress So Far

Today's food so far....

Half of a supersonic breakfast burrito...(I know it is not a good thing to eat when you are dieting but I was hungry!!)

Today's Exercise so Far....

I did part of Fitprime Metaboost...(until my butt felt like it was gonna fall off) and then popped in the Winsor Pilates 20 minute workout and did that. Maybe I will get on the treadmill later for some walking who knows..

So for my first day on the wagon it was decent...not stellar but not like I ate an entire Burger King or something..Ha ha..

Anyways my soap is on so maybe I will put that on and walk on the treadmill while I watch it...what a novel concept!!

Starting Back At It Again...

Tomorrow I am starting back on my diet and exercise regimen. I am sick of being flabby and pale...boo hoo. I am going to start out slow with some cardio and pilates this week and then next week I am going to add in some step aerobics and Tae Bo. I will be using a paper food journal which I will enter information from into this blog. Wish me luck! I want to wear a bathing suit this summer and not feel like a toad!!

Monday Update...Today's Day 1!!

I realize that it has been awhile since I updated this site...So here goes..


Today is day one of my new healthy lifestyle..

Today I quit smoking(so far..)

Here is my supplementation program..

Nature's Plus Source Of Life Multivitamin- one chewable tablet two times a day

8 ounces of warm distilled water with one teaspoon of raw organic honey and raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar..sip 3 times a day..(this doesn't taste as bad as it sounds...it is definitely an acquired taste)- supposedly this will cure just about anything and help you lose weight..

One tablespoon of organic blackstrap mollasses 3 times a day..

Nutricalm(made by Nature's Sunshine) a stress formula to help with the not smoking thing..one tablet 3 times a day

A homeopathic formula from my Natropath to help with the nicotine cravings- one tablet 4 times a day

Tobacco Detox Tincture- (also made by Nature's sunshine)To also help with cravings and help clear the tobacco and nicotine out of my body faster...also supports respiratory cleansing..

Daily exercise on the treadmill for at least 30 minutes followed by 10 minutes of stretching and deep breathing

As far as the eating thing goes I am trying to eat mainly whole unprocessed foods...organic veggies and fruits and whole grains etc. Limiting my intake of meat and dairy and other animal products..

Today so far I have had a bowl of organic oatmeal with organic raisins and wheat germ in it..

So far so good...but...it's only 9am..LOL
