Day 1, First Post.... ever.

Ok wow.  This feels a little more daunting, more like stage fright than I ever expected.  When I thought about creating a simple blog so that all my friends near, far and wide could vent, I didn't expect it feel so....big.  Anyway ok.  On with it I guess.  :)  

I'm doing great.  Oh sure, I've snuck a few handfuls of sugary cereal here and there, a soy latte once in a while... but really, I'm doing great.  I've taken a few Zumba classes, I've got a schedule mapped out of what I want to be doing at the gym (Zumba, Lift, Yoga) and it's going to work.... in my head it's great.... i don't start till Tuesday.  I can do it.  :)

Eating.... hmmmm.   I need to focus on not getting bored.  Sure, the carrot sticks were great there for the 1st week but today, 7 days in, I was actually bored with them and felt like I needed something yummy like a Burgerville cheeseburger.... mmmm.  Still at 11 at night that sounds just fantastic. 

I'm the queen of falling off, jumping off rather, the wagon.  I've got incredible will power for a few weeks but after that.... nadda.  This time, no (right?).  I'm doing this.....  I   Am  Doing This....

What's my goal??  Lose some weight for sure but mainly it's getting in shape, toning, heart healthy to live longer.  You?

  2. What are you talking about, you "can't vent about that"!? Of course you can. I've also invited my mom and she's going to be trying to quit again this year as well, you guys could probably use eachother's help! :) Good luck you, I'm sure it's not going to be easy. You can do it though! :)

  5. I WAS doing good. In beginning of November, I was hydrostatic weighed (dunked in water, supposed to be the most accurate)and was 16.1% body fat and was starting to look tone. At the end of Novemeber I found out I was pregnant, so all the food I ate over Thanksgiving I can't work off. Then all that I ate for Christmas/New years. I trying to get myself back to the gym this week in order to slow excess weight gain and keep the muscle I do have. My goal is to not totally blow up this pregnancy so that it is easier to get back into shape after. Oh the struggle!
