I was almost going to write this post about something that would reveal "the secret" lol. Oops. By Wednesday, all shall be revealed, thank god!

Anyway...I actually felt skinnier this morning. I've lost 5lbs, and I haven't really noticed any differences. But I put on my work pants and they were a lot looser, although this could also be partly due to them needing to be washed. But, 5lbs is 5lbs, and in 4 days, hopefully another 1.5-2lbs. I need to be 140 by May 20th! Or less, preferrably less...since I want to be 135 by the time we got to Florida for the Wedding on June 13.

I'm having an apple and a curves bar for breakfast since I ran out of Slim-Fasts. I love those things.

Hmm, anything else to report? Yes. But nothing you can know until Wednesday. Hopefully. Otherwise, someone will have to die. Lol.

2 weeks

So, just weighed in.
I am down 4.6lbs since i started.
I'm happy, I really am...I just feel like I should be losing it a lot faster for all the time I've spent at the gym.

I know I could be a bit more diligent about my points, but...I don't know.

I still want to be 135 by the time we leave for Georgia/Florida in June. Thats 15lbs. I hope I can do it. It'll be hard to continue to lose those last few lbs while in D.C 2 weeks before. This could choose to be difficult.

I really need to stay on plan while in Yosemite. Right now, this is my goal.

3lbs?

So I'm almost done with one week of officially being on weight watchers and going to the gym consistently. I weighed myself on my scale at home, and if its callibrated the same as the weight watchers scale, then I've lost 3lbs this week. Not too bad. If I can keep on doing that for a few weeks, I'll be happy.

I also accomplished not eating tons of junk food at my Moms last night. She made spaghetti, and while everyone was putting mounds on their plate, I got my Weight Watchers Measuring Spoons and only had 1/2 cup, for a total of 5pts. Yay. It even gave me room to have Strawberry Shortcake, which was suprisingly low in points. I was a good girl.

I've got until tomorrow at noon to try and loose a bit more. If I can get back in the 140's this week, I'd be sooo happy. Even if it is 149.9! Now I'm going to feel especially guilty for not going to the gym tonight!! But I've got my hair appt tonight!

Le sigh.

But 3lbs. That's pretty good. I'm not getting sore from the gym any more, which I don't like. I like being a little sore!

Ok, back to work.

I haven't been bad, I swear!

Just because I haven't been writing down my food in here, doesn't mean I've stopped doing it. I got the 3 month journal from weight watchers, and even though we don't officially start until tomorrow, i started journaling last week. True, I haven't exactly stayed within my points every day, but, I knew I was going to let myself splurge some until the meetings officially start.

Plus, I've been working out a lot!

So far, I've gone Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Tuesday, and thats not counting the hike on Sunday. So thats 5 days at the gym, an extra day of work out. 6 out of 7 days with physical activity. Hey, not too shabby.

Started with my trainer yesterday. Did a lot of cord weights, free weights, and then some machines, some squats, crunches. I feel sore today, but I can move. Which is good. I need to do 4 days of Cardio and two days of her routine every week. Eek! But if its going to get me down to 135 by May 28, heck, bring it on.

I told Josh that by the end of these 12 weeks, I'm gonna look like the Clipper Girl we saw last weekend. Unlikely, but if I don't reach for the stars, I'd just be limiting myself.

Tonight is All You Can Eat Sushi...and while I don't plan on stuffing my face with as many rolls as possible, I plan on getting 3 different kinds. So, in preperation for that, I'm limiting my points for the day. I'm having a Slim-Fast for Breakfast, a Slim-Fast for lunch and some Edamame and Apple Sauce, and then DINNNNER! I'm also going on another mile walk during lunch.

I'm so excited for these next 12 weeks. Meetings start tomorrow, and I'm already thinking about how to stay on the plan while I'm at my sisters over the weekend. Perhaps pack my own food.

We'll see.

Sleepy

It's Friday, and PAY DAY! Which is oh so nice. Whats not nice is not being in bed right now, lol. My eye is all icky again. I really need to just throw those contacts out as it seems they're contaminated lol. But, being stuck with just glasses is a big no-no. I've been good about not sleeping with them, but yesterday it didn't make a difference. I should probably go see the eye doctor, see what's up. Meh.

Anywho, I met with my trainer yesterday. We just did a Fitness Evaluation yesterday. Good news, my Wii is accurate. Bad news, both are BAD. My BMI is 28 and my Body Fat Percentage is 37 (it's supposed to be like 19-22%. Eek.

We went over my goals, and most of them are achievable in 3-4 months. All except my belly. But, I'm excited for these next 12 weeks. I was kinda mad because I thought this fitness eval counted towards my 6 sessions, but it didn't. So phew!

I'm starting my Food Journal today even though WW doesn't officially start until next week. The first thing I'll be writing in it though? A Donut. I won't be able to have them for atleast another 4 months, so I'm caving in a bit. If it makes up for it, I'll be walking to Subway for lunch AND going to the gym after work, AND going for a step class in the morning.

I might be getting a Voyager if my Mom ever goes to the Verizon store to get it. She renewed her contract on Wednesday and she bought the Voyager and I guess they were having a buy one get one free plan but since my Dad didn't want it she turned it down. SO she was going to try and go back to get it. Perhaps I'll have to go with her tonight to get it done.

Yay Voyager!

Hrmmm, what else.

Oh yeah, after my fitness evaluation, I went and did the Zumba class. I had the DVD of it in highschool and really enjoyed it. However, this lady's choreography was harder to follow. I did my best and was sweating up a storm. My face was even all pink! So I felt pretty good after that.

I get to start interval training on the treadmill too. Doesn't that sound exciting.

Where are the donuts!!!!!!???????

12 Weeks

I decided to use this time to blog, as the receptionist is late and Dennis has called out sick. Surprise, surprise. I get that colds happen, but I didn't call in sick with my cold and I'm a big baby. Needless to say, Dennis is a bigger baby.

I'm excited for my 12 week weight loss working out extravaganza. 12 week weight watcher program, and 12 weeks of personal trainer. So excited. Thats 15 lbs in 12 weeks, which might be asking for a bit too much. I know that its unrealistic to think you'll lose more than a lb every week. But we'll see. I can try.

I want to get back in my size 8's. And not squeeze into a big size 8, but fit comfortably in any size 8. Possibly a size 6? That'll be nice...but, that's not my 12 week goal. That'll be the next year goal.

Where's Pat?! Grrrrr.
