Scale Hiccup...

It has been maybe 2 or 3 months since I last got on the scale.

I am not a slave to the scale. 

I weighed in once a week and moved on with my day.

I’m usually a measurements person. I love watching the inches go bye-bye.

The scale is a mean bitch J

She varies from morning to night

She doesn't care about new hairdos and muscle mass.

She just gut punches you with a number.

Yesterday I went home, urinated and showered.

I stepped out the shower and the scale caught my eye.

I got on it.

0__o

 

According to the scale, between 5:30 and 6pm, I have gained 12lbs.

My heart dropped.

I have worked so hard TOO HARD

10 lbs!!!

I refuse to go back in the direction I came from.

I don’t want to be fat anymore.

Buckling this shit down.

I have to get back on point.

I used to log ALLLLLLL my food.

I had an exercise routine that I would not miss.

My mind was focused.

I wanted it more than anything I could ever dream of.  I still do.

I've gotten lazy.  It’s easier to lay in bed and sulk.

Oh I’ll just have one piece of carrot Cake.

12 lbs

Twelve pounds

Ugh

I just can’t have that.

D will be getting her shit together.

5 Lil Friday Items...

This lil Friday is going to be about the lil fitness things I  really want, but they’re not in my lil budget.  So basically this is a “wish/dream/fantasy list. Yup!
If you can't dream, what can you do? HA!

Up first!

Under Amour compression pants.  No reason other than my son has been telling me about the brand and then my #SwagSwap partner sent me a lovely Under Armor headband.  I’m curious!

They have MEMORY FOAM!!! Do you even understand how fricking awesomely comfortable that would be!!  To have a shoe that conforms to all the bumps and  the littleness of my toes!!  A dream!

These socks are adorbs.  I also want a pink pair and a white pair...I will become whatever they say…lol

I exercise at home and my at home “gym” would love this right here.  I believe my squats would be awesome and my deadlifts would feel well …like work.

A Meal Prep cook.  I mean come on…. I know it takes time and practice to get THIS ß good…I need a cook/delivery service.  I’m in Atlanta…any referrals?










Soooooo, I'm taking donations via PayPal...lol

I'm so glad that it's lil Friday because that means Friday cometh, sooner rather than later.
I have been working hard this week especially at work...humph...

Randomness...

My sister's Nursing school graduation was super awesome! I'm so proud of her.  She has like a thousand Bachelor's and Master's degrees.  She enjoys her some education, but nursing school was by far her biggest challenge.  I haven't seen her laugh, smile or cut up in 2 years!!!
It was similar to other graduation ceremonies BUT It was a lot shorter, someone "sang" and there was fire.

Needless to say I did not get in my workout and I'm feeling so guilty about missing it.
Last night I dreamed that I was running. Not running from something or someone, but running for fitness.
Needless to say I'm tired.  Perhaps running in my sleep wore me out...lol
I don't know, but I'm just saying. HA!

Yesterday I signed up on AchieveMint its a program that rewards.  Its all about fitness, from posting a fitness pic on IG to logging activity and food on MyFitnessPal.  It's cool! I found out about it through JenB, she is an AWESOME exerciser.  She documents the hell out of her journey and and just go check her out.  Any who she did a post about reward programs and AchieveMint stood out.  So I'm trying it.  * shrug * what could it hurt...
It may just inspire me to log and post more which in turn will have me trying to get in more activity.

I feel antsy today,  like I had a strong cup of coffee.  I feel all over the place. Disconnected.
I also feel like I should be... running.  Seriously.
I want to run.
I'm also feeling like I'm missing something.
Something I'm expecting.
* shrug *

7 Day Challenge Update
This Challenge has been interesting.
I originally started it on last Thursday last weekend I was absolutely lazy
I'm gonna have to start over.  I forgot about it. * shrug *
oops.

I love green tea.  I drink a cup daily.   I have seen many times over the health benefits (here)  and thought hey I'm one up!

I'm doing a little challenge...lol...challenge after challenge after challenge.

I'm doing a Green Tea Challenge 3 - 4 cups of  Green Tea Daily for 3 months
I'm a coffee drinker too so It won't be hard to replace.
Good times!

Happy Lil Thursday!!  check out The Grits Blog and link up I'm also hooking up with Thinking Out Loud perfect link up for how I'm feeling today! She is funny. I like!

Mental Challenge...

I only walked a little over 3miles yesterday.
When I got home I swung the kettle bell for over 5mins. I may not seem like a lot but IT IS!

Today I feel like all those pics talking about leg day.
I literally had to slow motion squat to sit on the fricking toilet!!!
So was yesterday leg day? * shrug *

I don't know but it hurts so good.





I'm feeling pretty good today!
Lately I have been feeling like giving up and forgoing my goals and lifestyle change.
I can't do that.
I need to be stronger than my negative thoughts.

Soooooo, I came up with a small challenge for myself.

It will last from today, April 10, 2014 until May 10, 2014
A month is always a good time table for a challenge.  I like a month.

Things I'm Challenging Myself with.

o   No carbs

o   I eat bread for breakfast and rice or some other carb for lunch. Gotta stop doing that.  Bread bloats me. Es no bueno para my belly. :)

o   No Snacking

o   I have a desk job…blah I don’t sit and snack alllll day but I will have SEVERAL spoons of peanut butter or lots of cheezits, gotta kill that.

o   Only eat what I can log into MyFitnessPal

o   Keeping the meal plan simple. Protein and VEGGIES!!!

o   Plan cheat day

o   Often times cheat day will consist of CRAP! Not McDonald's french fries, but  burgers, chips and salsa, ice cream, bindging…CRAP! I need to decide what I’m going to have on my cheat day, write it down and STICK TO IT!!

 

Things I really need to work on to get closer to my ultimate goal!!!!

 

Happy Little Friday!
