Weigh-in #2



Great News! I totally rocked my nutrition goal for week #1. No Soda! While I was at it, I consciously avoided eating out. I made dinner every night except Friday night - grilled veggie sandwiches, tilapia, lobster tail ($8 sale), veggie curry, vegetable provocal soup, spaghetti squash. It was excellent. I substituted water/green tea for my sodas and I got results! They are a big drastic so I'm hesitant to share, but today I weight in at 127! That is already 4 pounds less than where I started. But as I knew before, I gain and lose weight ridiculously fast, and if I hit my goal early, I'll continue this challenge. Besides, I know from past experiences, at around 120 pounds my body plateus like no other.


Bad News - I totally dropped the ball on my fitness goal. I went to the gym...once during a lunch break. I ran 3.2 miles but other than that, unless you can't running around doing errands, moving furniture, or walking Riley as "working out", I only went once. Pathetic. SO I am repeating that goal this week. I like moving forward so making myself repeat a goal for another weak is enough punishment.

So my goals are as follows:

Repeat Goal #1: 3 days of cardio for 45 minutes/week
Goal #2: Eat breakfast EVERY day. Yogurt, fruit, hard boiled egg, puffins, etc. I'm bringing breakfast back.

I purchased my scale but have yet to grab tape measure, which I feel I should, especially since the pounds go quickly off my frame but do not necessarily take off inches.

I hope everyone is still working on goals. If you fell off the wagon, get back on. It's not too late. It's not a competition, it's just you and it's for you. You can do it!

Here's another fitnesspiration photo. It's Courney from SYTYCD Season 4. She was in the Top 4, with my favorite Katee. Although, Katee rocked her at performing, I always admired Courney's strength and petite frame.


She is an amazing dancer. I love it! Perfect inspiration before classes pick up again.
