110.6

yah!  a new low!  110.6 lbs!   finally i see the number 110 on the scale!  now just 0.6 lbs and 8 days left... i think this is in the bag.   but then again every time i start to feel confident i binge like crazy.   so don't hold your breathe if you follow my blog!  haha... 

111.6

a new low for the year! weighing in at 111.6 lbs this morning...  woo hoo... getting a lil closer... only 1.6 lbs to go and 14 days to do it... i got this... for sure... as long as i don't binge! haha.... i am so in love in food right now.. it is very hard to be good.  but i am managing... somewhat...

i have been doing better with exercising... last week i averages 54 minutes a day... thats good for me... at least i think so!  as long as I can keep up-ing my daily minutes averages i'll be in good shape.  and today started out well with 70 minutes. so all i gotta do is keep at it! 

14 more days and i'll be in the middle of the ocean, headed towards the bahamas.. i can not wait!!

mg1 = check!

112.0 lbs today!!  MG1 check!  yah!  2 more yucky pounds to go, and 18 days to do it.  i got this...  

flat stomach here i come...

 

tanning

its january, so its tanning special season! got the tour of the city at sun tan city.   so got a lil sun today! lovin' it.


i also spend way too much time at the gym today... i burned 750 calories!!!  and my intake today was only 350!!  so if i don't see a reflection of that on the scale in the morning, i'm pretty sure i'll be very upset and probably binge.     but hopefully it'll be a good day on the scale and i'll do just as good at the gym!

slendertone

cleaning out the closet, came across an old slendertone i bought years ago, thinking it would help me loose weight... ah hahaha!  funny right?  well i've decided to give it a whirl in toning my abs.  i've lost all this weight, now i need the abs to show for it.  i am going to give it 4 weeks, and see if I see results.  i'll take before pictures and after pictures, and measurements.  going to try 40 minutes every other day at level 50.  it might not do anything, but it can't hurt to try it out!?!

it's still a loss

today was 112.9 lbs... not much of a loss... but thats ok, it's still a loss... and it's ahead of where i need to be, 0.6 lbs to be exact.  so...


i had an awesome day at the gym, i thought.  i ran 1 mile in 9:36!   thats like 6.25mph! woohoo.  then i brisk walked for 20 minutes.  did the elliptical for 15 minutes, and swam laps for 20 minutes.  oh and even did some reps on the assisted pull up machine.  not to shabby, MFP said I burned 435 calories!

intake has been so so. a little more than I would like, but still decent.  

Breakfast - fiber one brownie (90cal)

Lunch - EAS chocolate shake (110cal), 1/5 cup mixed nuts (130cal), blueberry snack pack (25cal)

Snack - Chips & Salsa (140cal), 3 baby carrots (10 cal)

That's 505 calories.    so net intake 70 calories.   surely this will give me some results in the morning...

family matters

so today i weighed in at 113.0 lbs even.   after binging all day at work yesterday, i'll take it.  why are they still bringing us junk food?!  the holidays are over.   grrrr.

today i got my family, well 7 of 8 adults to agree to a 4 week weight loss challenge.  i thought it would be a good idea, since they all wanted to loose weight this year.  so everyone put in  $5, and at the end of 4 weeks, who ever has the greatest % loss wins the pot ($35).  not a whole lot, but a lil friendly competition always makes people more accountable.   so we will see how things go, weigh in is every sunday afternoon.

tonight i took my husband to the gym with me.  it was so nice to have him there with me.  i have one more guest pass and i am hoping to get 4 more passes this week before we commit to his membership.  we walked 1.5 miles around the indoor track together.  then did 5 miles on the bikes.  well i did 5 miles, he did about 3.  thats how much faster i was than him!  and then we swam for about 20 minutes before retiring to the segregated sauna areas.  i hope i can continue to get him to go with me.  its nice to spend the time with him.

total binge...

so yesterday after a good day at the gym swimming and walking i totally ruined it....   on a 1570 calorie binge fest... eek!!!   so today i weighed in at 113.4 lbs, but that's ok, i am still ahead of where i need to be to get to 110 by my deadline.   so i am not going to panic just yet.

today however, was good at the gym, i ran a mile in 10:09 today!  i was a lil excited. that's a pretty good improvement from Tuesday.  woo hoo.  i'll take what i can get.  

and as far as food, i am staying on track, had a fiber one brownie (90cal) 1/4cup of grapefruit (20cal) for breakfast... then ate lunch out with my parents, had a side salad with fat free ranch (50cal) and one beer battered onion ring (50cal?) that puts me at 210 calories so far.  tonight we are going to our with some friends for dinner at an Italian restaurant, I am planning on a mixed green salad with white balsamic dressing on the side (50cal) i barely use any dressing, and then a bowl of minestrone soup (100cal).  hopefully i can stick to that plan and then i will have 360 calories for the day, and its a 400 cal day.  :D

112.6

so weigh in this morning was excellent, almost couldn't believe it.  112.6 lbs!  another 1 lb!  so that small binge yesterday didn't set me back like I expected.  

today i have planned to go to gym swim 200yds or 8 lengths of the pool, and walk my 1 mile.  (i think i am going to increase this by 0.5 mi each week, and see how it goes.  

and then its a 300 cal day.... so i am thinking a EAS low carb chocolate protein shake once i get back from gym, (110 cal), and then for lunch a cottage cheese snack cup (90 cal) and for dinner a snack pack of ham (50 cal) and a spring mix salad with a tsp of fat free ranch (35 cal).  and that should only be 285 cal.  and lots of protein! 

well i am off to the gym... wish me luck at sticking to my calorie goal!

an okay start

yesterday i did great. under 500 cal,  313 to be exact! :-)  and i went to the gym to run.

today not i did not so great with the calories, intake 1050?!  eeek,  but i did make it to the gym, cycled 5 miles, i averaged about 15mph, which i thought was pretty good... and walked 1 mile.  then sat in the steam room for about 10 minutes.  hopefully it doesn't ruin my weigh in tomorrow...

but on the up side, when i weighed this morning i was down 1 lb!!  113.6 lbs.   yah!  so i think between it all, i can call it a wash? hah

and maybe someday, eventually i'll look like this...
