Where does the time go?

September 24, 2011

I am the worst blogger ever! It's been a month and so much as happened. RECAP!

• Only made it to Day 6 of the Master Cleanse, but lost like 7lbs.
• Got promoted at work! I am now someone's boss - kinda scary ;)
• My 27th bday is in a week and a half - VERY scary!
• Leaving for our cruise in 5 weeks and still have 8 lbs to lose to make my goal
• I have hit a plateau in my weight loss (although I haven't been making to much effort to lose)
• I bought some new clothes cause a lot of mine are now too big - I am officially a size 8 again :)
• I've hit my 15lbs loss mark and need to take new progress pics

Whew! I've gotta blog more often!

Hope all is with everyone else!

I need to be saved from myself

April 21st, 2011

Let's start with the good stuff. I've been MIA cause I went to Vegas last week. It was awesome.

How HOT is my man!? :)

Life "since Vegas"....not so awesome.
1. Between Vegas and everything I am about to explain, I've easily put on at least 5lbs. Maybe even more like 7lbs - FAIL.
2. The day I am back to work from my mini "vaca," the shit has hit the fan and now I am STRESSED the F OUT!
3. My boyfriend and I are moving in a couple weeks and have a schedule so jam packed, that it literally only leaves us with evenings after work and one weekend to pack. UGH.
4. Someone VERY important to me has had a drug addiction for awhile now, been in and out of rehab, recently kicked out of rehab and on Monday I got a call because they were admitted to the hospital for "OD" type symptoms from shooting up heroin............

I can't even deal with all of this right now. I feel like I can't escape. And....here's where this blog is ideal to vent about all this crap - I have been binging on anything and everything to find comfort. I feel like I can't stop. I don't want to exercise. I just want to eat, and eat bad, BAD foods. I want chocolate, and cheese, and chips, and mexican food....lots of it. I wish I was one of those people who can't eat when they are stressed or upset - THOSE people are so lucky (although they probably don't look at it that way).

Anyho...thanks for letting me vent. I put up progress pics right before I went to Vegas....here's to hoping I don't stray too far from the progress I have made in them.

10lbs and NEW Progress Pics

April 10, 2011

I'm a few days behind in posting this, but as of Friday (my weigh-in day) I have officially lost 11.1lbs. And that means it's time for NEW PROGRESS PICS! I feel that I've lost most of the weight in  my waist line. Can't wait til I've lost another 10lbs so I can do a side-by-side comparison of a 20lbs!

So on Friday I weighed in at 152.9lbs and I leave for Vegas on Thursday. My goal was to weigh 150 by Vegas, but if I weight 150-point-anything I will count that as a win. :) 2 lbs.... time to get to it!

Nervous

Thursday, March 10, 2011

I weigh-in tomorrow and I am hoping for a loss. After losing over 4lbs last week, I am expecting my body to be a bit resistant this week. I have been on point with counting my points and I want sooooo badly to reach 154. At 154 I will have lost 10lbs and get to take new progress pics. My goal is to reach 154 by March 25 (when I have some visitors coming into town that I will reveal later), and with the rate I am going, I expect that I should not only reach, but pass that goal up with no problem. *knock on wood*

Tonight I am heading to the gym and plan on running 3 miles straight in preparation for my 5k training. As my title suggests, I am pretty nervous because the most I have so far 2.6 miles and I don't want to disappoint myself tonight. My 5k is in 24 days and I am really hoping for a sub 35min time. If I keep my pace up as it has been, I might adjust that to be more like a 32min time. Right now I am pulling off sub 10 and 10:30 miles....just don't know if I can keep that up for 3.2 miles.

Anywho, I will report my weigh-in tomorrow. Best of luck to everyone!
