Diet, Schmiet!!

I don't really have a specific meal plan but something that I have just adapted that works for me. Probably not the healthiest but I eat a LOT of these delicious protein bars, ALMONDS, YOGURT, SALADS, and drink a lot of water. Yep sounds crazy but that's how it works. Unfortunately I just moved to Phoenix and can't quite fit in my running in the morning yet but I'll get there. It is just too darn dark in the morning still. I also for a treat really love sour patch watermelons. So I lost 8 pounds this week but that is always a fluke for the first week of dieting after that is ALWAYS slow going. Good luck ladies we're on our way.

My Downfall.....

So... we just moved to Phoenix from hickville northern Arizona and I am discovering new things and unfortunately this restaurant is it!! I think I have eaten my weight there in the last 2 weeks. I have to avoid the thought of it and the very street it is on. Here's hoping!!

Grr, I'm Working Hard!

I lost 8 pounds in one week, going from 147 to 139. While that sounds utterly fantastic it is not. Coming off of vacation I always take off the pounds that I had gained there quickly. It is from here on out that I lose, if I am SUPER luck 1-2 pounds a week. Do you ever play that game where you look at another girl and wonder how much they weigh? In my crazy mind if I weigh the same as some cute chick next to me that I will look EXACTLY like her if I weigh that too. Unfortunately that is NOT the case. I weigh the same as sexy Kristal Mulder at times but she is freakin 5'10 and that weight just doesn't look the same on my frame. I am hoping to have a great summer where I ain't hidin my belly so much. GOOD LUCK CHICKY LADIES!!

I Am Hopelessly Flawed

The last challenge that just ended I weighed in at 133 an all time low that I haven't weighed since before I got married. My first weigh-in for this challenge and I am a whopping 147. This may not seem all that much except that means that I gained back EVERYTHING from the last challenge. What a freakin waste!! The above mentioned picture is one of the culprits. I love these things and I wait for them all year long. I would make love to them if I could. Ah.. at least Easter is almost over.

133, IT IS GREAT TO BE!!

So 14 pounds down this challenge. I was shooting for 130 but you won't hear me complaining. I don't have any full body shots but maybe I'll post some later. I woke up this final morning of weigh-in with wicked swollen glands and a major sore throat. I worked out anyways and my pants actually fell down to my knees on the treadmill. I also put on a skirt to wear to church yesterday and couldn't keep it up while I was dressing my kids so I tossed it. It feels SO good to outgrow clothes! I am in for the next challenge. I'll probably put on a couple more pounds til than but I am dedicated. It's gonna be summer ladies!! Lets keep it up!

Easter Dress

So I am currently between 134 and 135 which sounds great, right? Well I saw that picture of Collen at 158 and she looks WAY better than I do. I am 5'5 and I still don't think I look as great as her. My husband says it is all in my head, but whatever. I decided to get the cute matchy outfits for my kids for Easter and than I thought HEY!! I want an Easter dress too. I ordered this in a size 10 because realistically I am probably an 8 but I would rather shoot higher than lower, better for my self esteem. I am hoping to reach 130 by Easter. I have serious scary issues with hating my flappy "relief society" arms so short sleeves scare me. I am more of a 3/4 length sleeve girl so I am being brave with length and COLOR. I love black and brown too so HUGE step for me. Wish me luck, come on 130!!

Closer to mid 30's

Yep there is a glare but is IS 136. I am hoping that as my age gets closer to the mid 30's that my body weight will get closer to the EARLY 30's. What a trial. 6 more pounds until my goal. I am going to Mexico in a little over a month so I can totally hit that by than right?? Ya, me!
