burn, burn, burn!

Finally went to the gym today and it felt so good! I am always so nervous about going to the gym after I haven't been for awhile. I feel like people are going to judge...oh here comes that fat girl.  silly, I know! :)
I am doing the Carlsbad 5000 - the 5k portion with my bff on April Fool's Day.  Too funny.  So my plan is to allow myself this week of walking on the treadmill followed up by a cool down on the bike and then next week get in to c25k.  I also joined an adult softball league with a bunch of friends. We play on Tuesday nights. i am proud to say that I HIT and made it to first base on my first at bat!! woot woot! I would have never guessed that. I had forgotten how much I love sports and how competitive I am! felt so good to get out there and play!


BURN, BURN, BURN

I made it to the gym today and it felt soo good! I always am embarassed to go back to the gym after not going for awhile.  :( But I did just fine! I am doing the Carlsbad 5000 - the 5k portion on April Fools Day with my bff. should be fun! So I am going to give myself this week to walk on the treadmill followed up by a cool down on the bike. Next week I will get back in doing the c25k to start my training.  It feels good to be exercising again!

Tonight I am headed over to mom and dads to watch the oscar's and have pizza...a tradition with my mom.  I also have one piece of birthday ice cream cake left over! yum!

I have such a bad habit of eating when I am bored. I have NO idea how to change that. I get bored at work in the late afternoon and then suddenly think I am starving....clearly I am not! I need to find some foods that are filling that will help with this a bit more.  This week at work I am really going to focus on eating every 2 hours. And no stopping for coffee until Friday....that should help my wallet too!

I am looking forward to a good week! :)

WW...here we go!

Joined Weight Watchers again today.  Yes, again. Oh, I don't know, maybe the 6th or 7th time.  :(
I am doing it online. I don't really like that I can't find a meeting to go to, but I just can't seem to find one that will fit in to my life and I am not planning on getting up at 7 am on a Saturday...boo.  I am going to buy a ww scale this weekend...does anyone have one? Opinions?

So tomorrow will be my first full day on WW.  Should be exciting.  I am having a hard time adjusting to my lunch break at my new job. For no other reason than, I have a tendency to want to leave for the 1/2hour....I have to figure out some kind of reward system for being able to leave.  hmmmm I will have to think on that.

A month late...

Ok, I am a month late with my resolutions but here it goes:

1. Finish c25k.
2. Run a 5k, 10k
3. Lose 50 lbs
4. Finish kitchen celing.
5. Be happy!

Life just seems to get more complicated as you get older...yes, that is rather obvious, I know.  Anyways, I feel like things are starting over with me, a new job is huge! I love it though.  Now, I just need to work on myself. I went to Sprouts today and bought $55 worth of healthy stuff. I am going to cut out carbs (again).  I am so fat that I don't even think that I can start the c25k at this point.  But my goal is to start it in a week.  I am going to get to the gym this week and walk on the treadmill.  I wish I had a treadmill at home.  I am embarrassed to go to the gym the way I look .
But the fight will go on...

I did it!

I did it! I made it to they gym this morning.  I rode the bike for 45 minutes and did not die! HA!

I had a little set back...hurt my foot/leg, so exercise has not been a priority. My ass getting fatter apparently was!!

Tomorrow I am going to try the treadmill, hopefully my foot will hold up! I really want to start the c25k program again.  I am starting no carbs on Tuesday...until Christmas Eve. We will see how that goes. I think i can do it..I mean I did it before with no problem!! If I falter, that is ok, but I am pledging to not eat any carbs for dinner.   Wish me luck! :)

F.A.T.

Okay folks, I am fat . I mean F.A.T.

There I said it. Now (fingers crossed) I will be motivated to do something about this. I keep thinking, tomorrow I will start. No damn it. You will start immediately.

I am going to the gym tomorrow and starting week 1 of C25k.  This is just ridiculous. I am tired all of the time. I believe this is because I am not exercising.

Ok, so my plan is to check in everyday, and be accountable, even if I am the only one reading this!

Happy Friday...see you tomorrow!

summer summer summer!

It has been awhile!

I can't say that I have been doing anything too exciting. I certainly have not been working out! I am doing ww online and am doing pretty well so far. It has been over 3 weeks and I have lost 5.5 pounds. Not too shabby. 

The summer is coming to an end :( boo. I had to buy a new car over the weekend....stressful, but I am in love with my brand spanking new jetta. I am talking only 40 miles on it when I drove it away! LOVE. 

This weekend my bestie and I are walking a 5k.  We wanted to run part of it, but I failed on that. I am excited to go to the fitness expo though!

I will let you know how it goes...
