1-1-11....HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!


Start over day AGAIN!! Yep every January 1st I make all these promises and by December 31st I'm wondering what happened AGAIN. This Year is different....lol... yeah I say that every year too. I'm about to turn 40 years old and the few lifestyle changes I have incorporated I hope to strengthen I will continue to read more about healthy eating and the effects on my body. I will have my surgery this year and with that I will get my self together. I WILL LOOK GOOD NAKED....lol. I have chosen to follow the no flour, no sugar diet of Dr. Gott. I don't think it will be that hard but I guess we'll see, won't we. I want to commit to keeping up with my fitness and nutrition journal....last year I was so sporatic with it. but as the year progressed I realized it helped me be accountable to ME. This is only about me and how I feel. I just looked up what I logged at this time last year....found that I weighted 229 which is a 21 pound gain over the year. My bottomline goal is 185..... comfortably. I will post an "almost naked"  picture once per month. It'll remind me to stay on track. It's on now...Bitchez. Look out!! But first ugh here's the first pictures..... nope not a pretty sight...not to me anyway...and dis IZ about me and how I feel.... so ewwww. lol. Can hardly wait to see the inner stripper in me shine thru...lol. Yep I believe I'm a stripper in another life. And the journey goes on. Stay tuned.

21 Day Fix - Overview Week 2

Ok my confession first; I didn’t work out much last week…..three days. I let life give me excuses and I used ‘em. I am, however, still eating according to plan for the most part and still dropping pounds and inches. Although this is a 3-week program, I really don’t plan to stop…. since the goal is to adapt to the habits as my normal way of eating I will simply continue. I still give kudos to the program because I was at a major plateau. Although this is simply a program of portion control and timely eating… it’s presented in a way that makes it understandable in a market that is just overwhelmed with "get-skinny-fast" schemes. Tools are provided that helps you to see visually the perfect balance of nutrients to fuel and nourish your body. And you can’t beat a 30 minute but still effective workout. I’ve found that I can even “stray” and still see a drop on the scale. Friday night, I went out to eat my all-time favorite meal of Mexican fare. I almost always order a large...

21 Day Fix Overview - Week 1

In my case, I am in the 1,200 to 1,499 calorie range! That allows me 3 green (veggies) 2 purple (fruits), 4 Red (protein) 2 Yellow (starchy carbs) 1 Blue (nuts, ect) 1 Orange (nuts and dressings) 2 spoons (nut butters, olive oil). You are provided with a list of foods that you can eat that corresponds with each container. I love it because I can easily pick from each list and create a meal plan for the week. I love that the foods are listed in order of importance. So the higher on the list the foods are the more nutritionally sound they are! Of course you should have a variety of foods from the lists to give you variety of nutrients for your body. I am a plan it out type of girl so this works wonderfully. I have not been eating out of the containers, but I measure and pour onto my plate. Now I’m kinda getting use to amounts so I know about 3 chicken strips equal a red container, that approximately 5-8 strawberries will fit into a purple container, etc. Surprisingly each time I ...

Still Truckin' along

Dang it's been a minute since I've blogged...Over a month. I enjoyed the 5 weeks for structured bootcamp. Something about knowing my exact schedule was exactly what I needed. Her meal plans were easy to follow although I didn't follow them on most days. In the end I didn't lose any weight but I lost 3 inches in my thighs and almost 3 inches in my waist so it was worth it to me. The first week without the camp schedule I was totally lost on what to do.....just winging it. At the job, they have opened up a nice fitness wellness center. It's the place to be right now so very overcrowded. My first experience at the beginners Zumba class was horrible.....she was so uncoordinated and appeared to not know her own routine. Yesterday I attended the Bootcamp Training Class and it was GREAT. We jogged, did squats, planks, mountain climbers, high knees and other things that had me sweating my weave out. I loved it. And although I hate to hang around till 6 after work, I think t...
