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.

    (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...

Knee Up...

Sometimes I don't know if pain/discomfort I'm experiencing is simply weight related or if it's something I really should get checked. I've noticed my knee is constantly irritated. Only my left knee. At Zumba last night I could barely lean to the left while squat/plie. I kinda loosens up toward the end of the hour of aerobic activity but still hurts. Some kicks and such in MMA fitness really twist my knee up..... I was thinking that maybe because I'm not getting up on my toes more that the shoe-to-carpet connection is jarring on my knee but I'm just not sure. Every morning when I jump out of bed I'm limping pretty noticeably and this morning was no different. As the old folks say "Arthur was acting up" ...that is a possibility (arthritis) since it was very irritated during this morning's rainy weather. I guess I will mention it when I go for my regular checkup in a month but for now I'll just keep working it out. ugh.....Sunshyne Out.! (phot...

Gray Areas...

I'm experiencing "grey areas" in my life right now. Yes I am still separated and not divorced. Yes I still technically have a live-in boyfriend and a husband. And yes they both want to be a major part of my life. And unfortunately, I want to be a part of both of their lives but realize that can't happen. Initial sparks wear out and reality sets in..... just in my case sparks can go on a long time usually after sexual and emotional connections have gotten way too deep.  Right now I'm taking the time to redefine love in my life. Love means something different to each person. I realize in talking to different friends on a day-to-day basis...that we all view relationships differently.  Some women think that as long as he's a provider, they can put up with anything. To me money is not everything, what about the desire to be in your partner's presence?  What about having that indescribable feeling when you get that hug at the end of the day? What about looking f...
