Getting it done

I haven't posted to the blog in a few days, but I am proud to announce that I am FULLY re-committed. This last 20 lbs. had better watch out because I am coming for it! The exercise is back on track. Got up at 5:30 this morning and did the spin bike for half an hour before getting ready for work. Then I just finished a 60 minute run. Worked out with the trainer from hell last night and received my usual ass whooping. Just when I think he has pushed me to my limits, he ups the workout, adding new exercises and heavier weights. He just got certified as a russian kettlebell expert trainer so lots of workouts revolve around those evil things! I am glad my friend introduced me to him though, because he is really very good at what he does, and I am seeing results, which is what I pay him for. Happy to report that the eating is back on track as well, which makes a helluva difference. I have been packing my lunch again, which is a huge help. You can't eat what you don't have, oh yeah, I work in a grocery store there is food all around me. But I am the Produce Manager so that SHOULD keep me on track, lol. Anyway, just wanted to put it out there that I am back and I am bad, and I am through with this 20 lbs, they are as good as gone! Bye for now ICDT T:lol:

Day one- I did it!

So when the alarm went off at 5 this morning I was a little pissed off, what was I thinking? Well I did it, I got up and ran for 30 minutes Wahoo!! It occurred to me that the only way I am going to get to goal is to keep running, on the weeks when I have lost signifigant weight I was running 3 to 5 days. Went to the PT tonight and guess what he had me do? you got it-- run. It was a good workout with lots of work with the kettlebells mixed in with the running. In the course of a one hour workout I got one two minute break. That is pretty amazing seeings how when I first started I took a break for one minute about every 5 minutes. So I am back on track with a vengeance! I will get up at 5 and run for 35 minutes tomorrow, no PT so when I get home from work will get on the spin bike for one hour. Now that its out there in the world for all to see I cannot fail! ICDT T:thumbup:

Happy Birthday to me!

I have decided to treat this birthday as most people would treat new years, time to make a resolution to myself. I have never been one to go along with the crowd, so on Jan. 1 when everyone else is doing their new years resolutions I will be at goal! Afterall, my birthday is the beginning of a whole new year for me, right? Okay, so I am 20 lbs from goal, and I am just screwing around. I can't seem to get my shit together and finish this thing. I don't think I am afraid being at goal, I just think I am a lazy ass who can't do what it takes to be successful. I have not exercised in a week, and my eating is out of control. I gotta do this, I cant come this far and leave it here with 20 lbs to go, I just cant. I have got to let the fat girl go once and for all, and get to the healthy, slim girl that I have been working so hard these last 9 months to become. To let all that hard work go just because I am struggling would be a crime. I have accomplished so much in these last months, I have lost over 50 lbs., I have become a RUNNER damn it! I RAN a frickin' 5k. I don't want to go back to being tired all the time and feeling shitty all the time. I want to be fit, I want to be thin, I want to wear a goshdamn size 6! I can can can do this! Hell with it, I am not waiting till tomorrow to start, I am starting now. NOW! I am committing to myself and whoever else has the patience to read this that I will get up at 5am and run for 30 minutes. Not walk, RUN! Cya tomorrow, will report on how things are going, its gonna be okay, I CAN DO THIS!!! T:tt1:

hump day II

Today started out sucky, woke up this morning feeling like crap, yesterday was bad too, had diarreaha all day and was just completely worn out, dont know how I made it through the day at work, I must have run to the bathroom 100 times!:party: This last weekend was the best- DH surprised me for my birthday and we flew into Fontana to go to the Nascar race. It was so incredibly fun and I was totally surprised, if for no other reason than DH went to so much work to do a great surprise that I would love. Think I will keep him around awhile longer, lol. Due to not feeling so great today I called in sick to work, and am going to cancel my PT session tonight. Just going to take it easy today and let this yuckiness work its way out of my body. So I am officially 20 lbs from goal- whoo hoo! I CAN DO THIS!!!! I will start being more consistant with my exercise and logging my food, thats what has made me successful up to this point:thumbup:   I CAN DO THIS!!! T

Hump day

OMG, my trainer totally kicked my ass today. I knew he was going to be kicking it up soon because I haven't lost any inches off my legs yet. He pulled out the kettlebells and lined them up and I knew I was in for it! I am happy with my workouts so far this week, I did spin on Monday and Tuesday, then did 60 minutes of cardio today followed by training. Just wish I could get the eating under control- I have a bad addiction to pita chips. Eating has always been my downfall. The band is helping alot, I am just not in control like I think I should be. I don't know what its going to take to get it all the way together.:confused:   T

regrouping

Ok, so this weekend was a little rough, I dont think my eating was necessarily out of control, but exercising was a challenge. We took motorcycle safety courses all weekend and by the time we got done with that I was so tired I didnt do much. I ran on Sat. and that was about it.... I have got to get my ass back on track, DD's wedding is Oct. 18 and I have a beautiful size 6 dress I am determined to fit my ass into. Sooooooo, no more stressing over what has happened, time to move on and do better, I CAN DO THIS!!!!! I have been a slave to my weight problem for far too long!:thumbup:   T.

First blog

Ok, so this is my very first blog....ever. Just finished my first 5k RUN on Sat, it was a bitch, but I did it and in the end I am so very proud of myself. My DH and kids were there to support me, and that was so awesome! I am so proud of all of them, they have totally been there for me for this entire journey. I think sometimes they get frustrated with the fact that I dont eat like I used to, but they have been really good about it. LOVE them! Will be doing kickboxing tonight and also try to run a few miles today.   T:lol:
