What a great disciplined week!!!! well sorta...

I actually worked out 5 of the last 7 days.... a feat in itself for me. I been doing really good ... compared to my past. YAY me. I'm even trying to start back getting up at 5:30am to get in my workout.... thinking that if I put forth the effort to workout in the am then even if "life" gets in the way in the evening, I've still gotten in some aerobic activity. Only thing is it's hard to do Billy Blanks Bootcamp at 5:30....so the last two days I've done WATP 3 mile powerwalk. Almost like Billy is too intense for so early in the morning.... I know ALL mental but give me a few days...ugh I'm getting there. I was hurting for days after Bootcamp but still mustered thru the next. Now as far as eating... my first step in the RIGHT DIRECTION was portion controlled lunches. I have not been down to buy anything from the Kay Kafe but instead have been bringing frozen lunches...be it still processed which I hope to get away from soon but dang one step at a time. This shit is hard....I'm trying to do a little at a time so it doesn't "seem" so hard but ugh. Now for my DATS STILL WRONG moment this week...they having a reception for someone retiring and you guessed it...I'm heading down and most certainly will be snacking. See how conscience of it I am.... hmmm so I don't think it's willpower more like socializing misfit. So I have to mentally decide that I am not going to ruin all my hard workouts by socializing the wrong way. I could very well go to mingle with co-workers at the reception and NOT grab anything unhealthy. We'll see.

    My manager (38) wanted to lose weight for her High School Reunion. I gave her this little bit of advice and she lost 13 pounds in 3 months.

    CALCULATE your calorie intake , as well as what your calorie intake should be for you to get to your ideal weight. NOTE: Adjust your ideal weight in moderations. Start off with a 10-15pound weight loss and then adjust it once you reach that goal. LINK: http://nutrition.about.com/library/bl_nutrition_guide.htm

    RECORD your calorie intake for the day. Use sites like calorieking.com to find out how many calories did you intake for the day. Record, add, comoare to your numbers needed. INVEST in a journal/notebook/calendar so that you can write these things down. NOTE: The first week or two will be tricky because you'll just be getting to understand what's enough and what's too much,

    WORK OUT. We all hate to do it, but we all have to do it. Thankfully the more you work out, the kore you get to eat. The calculations at the link about gives you calorie intake necessary with workouts included as well. =]

    OBSERVE, DISCIPLINE, & COMMIT: Just like we can consume ourselves with our loved ones, we ought to consume ourselves with ourselves. =] watch for your changes, admire your beauty, commit to your self-maintenance and give yourself your 'all' just as you would give others =].

    Best of wishes!

    Kimberly, FWB

    How many calories you* took for the day.

    Record, add, & compare* to* your numbers needed.

    Note: ... You'll just be getting used to understanding what's enough & what's too much.

    The more* you get to eat.

    Calculations at the link above*

    (I just worked an 8hour shift and it's now almost 2am central time, lol, that's all I have to say about all these typos. Lol, but I just want to help my fellow sister, as they help me =]..)

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 ...
