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 ...

It's OK if you have to Walk Away.

Awww remember when you first met? Remember that teenage giddy feeling...remember how you felt when he first said he loved you or vice versa.... but what if you can no longer remember why you're there in the first place, if it's just not working, how can you stay together? Truly. How? I’m seeing this situation in two very close friends of mine and it makes me look at my own situation and evaluate that I’m in a relationship for the right reasons. Your partner does not have to be abusing you or neglecting you or doing or not doing anything in particular. Relationships end. I realize this is NOT the fairy tale we’re made to believe as a growing princess but relationships are hard work, right? I don’t know if I buy that.... love shouldn’t be hard work, love shouldn’t be painful.... and if it is then it’s time to re-evaluate. And when you know it’s over, you are wasting yourself and your time, not to mention your partner and his time when you stick around instead of exposing it for ...
