Weigh In Results!!!

Well my last weigh in for the month of April. I had two good workouts this week so I didn’t know what to expect.

So when I stepped on the scale this week it read:

 

 

-2lbs!!

I am pretty happy with that!!!!

So it takes my current weight to 174.8lbs. In the month of April I lost 7lbs. Of course I gained 5lbs one in week so I technically only lost 2lbs this month.

On a side note: I am really enjoying running on the treadmill. Even though that I need to practice more running outside for my run in July.

 

I am going to do it!!

Well after a lot of thought, I finally decided that I am going to run a 5k race this year.The race is on July 20th. I actually recruited my sister’s boyfriend to run with it me.He will be my motivator and my pace bunny making sure that I don’t fall too far behind.

I have been running on the treadmill for over a year but of course  it is run/walk. But lately I have really been pushing myself on the treadmill and making sure that I am doing more running then walking. On the weekend I did 5k on the treadmill with I would say about 3 breaks in 41.21 mins. I think that is pretty good. So I am determined to beat that record each time I do it on the treadmill.

So my plan is to run outside 3X times a week and every week increase my distance. Hopefully by the time the race comes I can run 5k without any breaks.

 

I am a little nervous and excited all at the same time.

 

Tell me that I am not CRAZY?????

Weigh In Results!!!

My weekly WI was today. Every Tuesday! So I had a feeling that I was going to be down in weight this week. I would probably rate my eating this week 3.5/5. Exercise I would probably give the same. All in all it could of been a better week. So when I stepped on the scale it read:

 

 

-1.4 pounds!

I am ok with that, of course I was hoping for more (we always do). But I have officially lost the 5lbs that I gain two weeks ago.

I have some exciting news coming up soon!

Weigh In Results!!

Well after my terrible week last week, I got back on track. I was hoping for a big number, secretly I was hoping to lose all 5lbs that I gained last week. I actually knew that wasn’t going to happen, but a girl can dream can’t she?

So when I stepped on the scale it read:

 

 

-3.6!!

I will take that even though. I was hoping for more, and according to my scale at home I was down way more.

I am really going to focus this week and try to at least 2lbs this week, so that I can get over my 5lbs gain! I CAN do it!!!!

 

Two New Things!

I just recently got two new things. One is fitness related, the other not so much.

 

The first thing that I recently got was something that I needed for a really long time. I am talking since high school I have probably needed these. Yup new glasses. I finally bit the bullet and got my eyes tested and finally bought two new pairs.Yes I didn’t need to get two new pairs but it was two pairs for $199. Here’s a pic in one of my new pairs of eye glasses. What do you think?

 

 

I can’t believe how much better I can see. It’s like someone turned the lights on. Things are way more clearer and brighter. I am still getting used to wearing them.

 

 

The second thing that I got that was new, was a pair of running shoes. I wasn’t really in the market for a new pair but I needed a new pair for work and ofcourse it was buy one. get the second at half price. My husband couldn’t find a pair that he liked so I reluctantly picked another pair. They are Saucony brand. They weren’t top of the line but they weren’t also the cheapest ones there also. I always thought that Nike were the best pair of shoes to have. I guess merely on the name not really on the comfort level. So I was a little hesitant that these Saucony shoes weren’t going to be that comfy. But on Thursday I wore them for a little workout on my treadmill at home. And you know what I couldn’t believe how comfy they were.I felt like I was walking on air. Then today I put them on a real test,I wore them to the gym today and they got the passing grade.

Here is a picture of them.

 

I hope everyone had a great weekend.

I will be back with my results of my WI on Tuesday!

Back on track!

Well I am back on track since my disastrous week. I have been to the gym twice since my WI and plan on hitting my treadmill tonight after dinner.

 

I have a plan of getting a workout in everyday until my next WI on Tuesday. The only day I won’t get one in is on Sat, I won’t have enough time since we have plans and I work during the day.

 

I also have drank a lot of water the last two days. Flushing all the fat out of my body!!!!

 

I guess there is really no point to this post, but that I am back on track and feeling 100% better.

WI results-Fell off the wagon!

 

 

Well last Tuesday after I left my Weight Watchers meeting, I lost all motivation for the week. I am not sure what happened. I knew that this was the week that I bloat up, I guess I just gave up. I knew that I had a few challenges this week also coming up with food. Even though I have dealt with food challenges before, everything that I learned went out the window. I lost control.

 

So the results on the scale was this:

 

 

+5lbs

That is a combination of food and bloat.

I know that I didn’t eat 5lbs worth of food this week.But now that I was looking back at it, I know that ate a lot of extra calories. Did I mention that exercise was non existent last week?

I took a BIG STEP BACKWARDS!

The week is behind me now, I have learned from my mistake. Trying not to be so hard on myself.

Even though that this set back happened my Weight Watchers leader said it is best that you came back and not give up.

I have came too far to give up!!!!
