84 in March

I love living in Southern California! 84 degrees in March....yes, please. It was so nice out today. Apparently it was yesterday too but I didn't get out of bed until 11 am, hmmm, musta needed some sleep. So today, I took full advantage and managed to get up and going before 10am. I got my car washed and detailed and sat outside in the sunshine while waiting. Drove down the coast to La  Jolla to go to Whole Foods. Guitly pleasure, but it was just too nice not to see the ocean!
Then it was time to get home and get down to business. I had tons of laundry to do and lots of cleaning.  I ended up re-arranging my living room and bedroom.  2 hours and lots of sweat later, I was happy. Wanted to stay at home and veg out, but went to the gym...the best part...got to watch the last 1/2 hour of the sex and the city movie while walking on the treadmill.  Came home and made a big salad and a black bean chipotle burger..yum!
It has been a great weekend, and sadly it is over! :(
This week is a little bit slower until the weekend. So my workouts will go like this:
Monday - rest
Tuesday - gym, treadmill, bike (no softball game)
Wednesday - gym, treadmill, eliptical
Thursday- rest
Friday - gym, treadmill, bike
Saturday - rest - but will spend the day at a golf tournament, so there should be tons of walking involved.
Sunday - gym

I will let you know how it goes. :)

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!
