Let's get this party started....

As a perk of my job I received a WAC membership. I went almost everyday to a 5am spin class for two weeks. Last Thursday I worked out with Tina the trainer at 5am. I felt good. Although I kept eating whatever I wanted. Us living so close to Golden Gyro is not a good thing. I have terrible self control. Today I am sitting here and work thinking about how I can get this weight loss party started........

Defeated

Defeated.

Nuff said.

To be continued...............

30 has come.....Fresh start?

So Friday was my 30th birthday and I was pretty disgusted with the way that I looked. I have lost and gained the same five pounds over the past 6 months. It's pretty frustrating. At the same time though I have done nothing to help the process. We eat healthier as a family but still slip up and have the sweets and cook with things we should avoid. I am a bit more determined now to get it together. I always say that and then nothing changes. My sister wants to lose weight so I am hoping I can find a support partner in her.

Maybe slimming a bit by Christmas would be a good new goal? Although the holidays are a really hard time to diet. ugh.

Epic fail

So, I turn 30 in one week and am heavier than I have ever been in my life.

I weighed myself the other day and felt a lump form in my throat. I can not believe that I let myself get to this weight. I promised Ben that I would never "let myself go" after having kids. Over the last year, that is exactly what I did. I'm not sure if it has to do with not working, being done with school, or just all the awful things that have happened in life but something is holding me back.

It's pure laziness on my part. I have lots of time to exercise and I don't. I have tons of healthy food around me and chose to eat junk.

This has got to change. I'm just not sure how I can do it alone.

Back on the wagon

I am back on the wagon and lost three pounds.

It's crunch time.

More to come...............

Trying something new...

Thank you Jill for turning me on to Medifast.

Ben's step mom brought me a box a Medifast food and drink to help with my weight loss/get healthy goal.

I plan to try the plan next week. That gives me the weekend to do my homework and read the book explaining the details of the plan.

We are packing and getting ready for our move. I can't wait to move and get my elliptical. Worked out on it last week with Jess and felt pretty great afterwards.

Got a beautiful bikini as inspiration.

Life gets in the way

Life lately has gotten in the way of my excercise plans.

We are facing a move, huge financial woes, and downsizing....big time.

On a happier note......My super wonderful good friend is selling me an elliptical for cheap. CAN NOT wait to start working out on it!

Always have to find a silver lining...................
