Temptation Tuesday

I am tempted to go home and go to sleep.  It is so rainy and I am so sleepy.  I will not even go home.  If I go home I will not make it to the gym.  I am going right from work to the gym and I will do my yoga and couch to 5k program.  I can fight this!!!!!

Current Weight: 251.2
Weekly Loss: +5
Loss-to-Date:  24.8

  

So everything about this sucks.  I would normally not put this on my blog and pretend everything is ok.  I have decided to hold myself accountable and be honest.  I got off program and it was like a week long binge.  I am done with it.  I am disgusted with myself.  I want to get back into ketosis stat.  I have been so sick and I know it is because of how I have been eating.  My IBS almost completely went away when I was in ketosis, so that is reason enough to stick to my Ideal Protein Program.  

Now for the good news - my roommate Jaime moves in tomorrow.   Jaime is skinny and healthy and a wonderful motivation for me.  When I lived down in VA and I had a roommate, I was much more motivated to be productive, workout, keep the house clean and NOT BINGE!  I will not binge when people are there to witness it.  I have a good feeling about this week.  I know my next weigh in will knock your socks off!

Sum it Up Sunday!

So this week wasn't what I expected.  I had some serious stomach problems all week and when I was able to eat, I didn't want to eat on plan, I wanted something filling.  So instead of making excuses, I am just going to admit I fucked this week up and I am back at it in the morning.  Here is my June Bloom workout plan for this week!


Monday - I will be cleaning my whole house top to bottom for the roomie's move in so I will be working and sweating all night - I burn so many calories when I clean!

Tuesday - Yoga and C5K

Wednesday - Body Pump and Zumba

Thursday - Abs and C5K

Friday - Zumba

Saturday - Body Pump and C5K

Sunday - Yoga and Abs


Productive and healthy week.....AND.....GO!!!!!!!!!!

Slacker Saturday

So today I was not a slacker.  I went to the Pittsburgh Autism walk.  Autism is one of my biggest passions and it was so nice to see that our walk has grown each year.  It was also nice to reach 8000 steps before noon :)

I also went to Andrea's housewarming party.  It was really nice and a good group.  I was a little jealous because of the shittiness of my housewarming party last year. (Cliff Notes version - a friend brought over a guy who was a nazi and all of my friends are gay, jewish and/or black.  Also - I am pretty much the only white girl in my zip code so it was very embarrassing for my neighbors to see him.  Also - there was a couple who got in a fight then the guys were talking about beating someone up - WORST) So since my new roomie is moving in on Tuesday, I was thinking we should have a housewarming redo party.  I think its only fair - no drama allowed.

This was our team shirt for the Autism walk - I love it!

Fashion Friday

So, for Fashion Friday I have been giving a lot of thought about my fashion and how it looks to others.  A few weeks ago I wrote about wanting to be able to throw on some jeans and a tshirt and look sexy.  A fellow blogger, Fatboy Kris gave me some words of wisdom on the subject.

"I just want to reassure you that there are men out there (myself included) who find women of all sizes attractive. To me, attitude is everything. Work it!"

I really took that to heart, and I have been trying to see myself as beautiful...

So my Fashion Friday is dedicated to me and my look.  Recently I have been compared to Adele a lot.  I take this as a complement because she is a plus size girl who is super pretty.  I think Adele has good fashion (usually) and I hope that I continue to resemble her.  It is important to love yourself.  I am really making this a goal of mine, no matter what size I am.

Here are some pics or me and my apparent twin, Adele.  I am ok not having her butt chin though :)

What a silly Fashion Friday, but I figure I don't post enough pictures of myself and it's time to start!

Thankful Thursday

I want to thank Alan for sharing the June Boom! challenge.  I am excited for this challenge because I do much better when I have a challenge.  With that said, I have a problem today.  I work all day then I go straight to my cousins senior performace.  I probably wont get home till close to 11:00 tonight.  What to do, what to do?  I walked the stairs for about 15 minutes today.  I wanted to do more but a coworker came in to talk about a student and I got a late start.  Do I workout at 11:00 tonight?  Thats seems crazy to me.  Suggestions?   

Workout Wednesday

Well - Today I started my June Boom workout challenge.  I did 30 mins of kettlebells even though I was exhausted and I wanted to sleep.  I need to keep this up everyday and I will feel so much better about myself.  When I workout regularly, I tend to not binge!
