They Fit!

I was looking in my closet this morning trying to decide on what to wear. I see my old pants that I have not fit into since before getting pregnant, um 4 years ago. I pull them out and put them on, and They Fit! I am comfy in them and have a little room to spare. I am so excited, I now have a new selection of clothes to pick from. I wore my grey pants to work last week and everyone kept saying they are too big and they were falling off of me. YAY. So put those ones away and pull out the small ones.

Wii Fit: 123.2 lbs

Last night Nicole and I were not able to go the gym, but we did go on a walk around her house. We walked about 1.5 miles. James rode his bike, but got tired half way through and we took turns pulling his bike, so that gave us an arm workout.

I have 2 weeks and 2 days for my next goal date of Aug 14. I would like to be 120 lbs. I can do it.

Keep moving on!

YAY – A little progress! On Thursday AM I was 123.6 lbs. However, I was in the munchy mood, I think it was because I didn’t drink coffee, I am hungry when I don’t drink coffee. So I kind of did the same thing this week that I did last week. Thursday and Friday were lots of food eating. I had burritos at home for dinner on Thursday and went out to eat at Mexican on Friday. I do a lot better when I go to eat, I don’t eat my whole meal and I don’t order soda, just water. Friday night was the fair again, this time I just had a soda and the rest of James Ice Cream. I weighed in on Saturday morning and I was 125.3 lbs, so back to 125 right? Blah. Saturday night was Kenny Chesney concert, so again not good eating, nachos and soda and snacks. But Sunday I did much better. Monday AM weighed in at 125.3, so I didn’t gain, but I didn’t loose either, that’s good I think for a weekend. I got back in gear at work on Monday and I weighed in this morning at 124.6 lbs. Yay, so I keep moving forward. I might need to wear a swimsuit this weekend so I better stick to it.

Now I need to start working out more often and I think that would help tone. I only get a little walking in at a time, and maybe pilates 2x a week. However, Nicole and I belong to the same gym, so we are going to try and start working out 2x a week.

125.7 and steady!

Well this weekend was food-filled. It started with Thursday, I went to the dentist during lunch, so I was not going to have time for food. So I grab Weinerschnitzel, chili cheese fries yummy. Then that night was Bunco and I had snacks, but Elizabeth and I walked to and back from her house to Jill’s house for Bunco, it is just about over 1 mile one way. Friday AM: I was 125.7 lbs, gained a little, stinking chili cheese fries.

Friday: We went to the Fair with the hubbies and kids. Of course the best part of the fair is the food. We had Macho Nachos (shared), I had a few bites of James corndog, and we had ice cream, but we did a lot of walking around the fair, that helps, right?

Saturday: Nicole and I rode our bikes to Farmers Market in Pleasanton from my house, which is a 2.3 miles one way. We walked around the market and ate fruit. Then I rode my bike back home. Granted I had James on the back which is about 33lbs and backpack with the bike chain and fruit about 10lbs. There is a slight incline on the way home and it worked my butt. Then the girls came over for spaghetti dinner and we went back to downtown for Frozen Yogurt, oh so yummy.

Sunday: Church, of course I had MaryAlice’s coffee cake, so good. Then we had a BBQ at the park. I had chips and guacamole and a hamburger and a brownie. I played on the playground with James. Then we went to the Luau at the church. Had Kalua Pig, to die for, I love it with rice. I had mine, and James and a little of Ben’s. Granted that was all I ate, I didn’t eat the bread rolls, oh but I had a little salad. So after all that being said, I guess I did enough exercise because I was the same weight as I was Friday AM. So I didn’t loose any, but stayed even. Now back to the low calories and lots of water. I didn’t drink more than 3 bottles of water all weekend, bad, bad.

4th of July

The 4th of July came and I met my goal. My goal was 125 by July 2nd. I weighed myself the morning of July 1 and I was 125. 7 lbs. I guess that counts right? I was so excited and I can feel the difference in my thighs, my stomach feels smaller, but on Wednesday the measurement was still the same. I was happy and know I can keep going. My next goal is to be 120 lbs and trim by August 14.

Wii fit: Weight 125.7 lbs, BMI: 22.27

How did I do it? I cut out a lot of calories. I was eating only 1000 calories during the week, a little more than that on the weekends. I cut out soda, snacks, candy, chips. Surprisingly I was not hungry. I drink about 4-6 bottles of water a day. I try to do exercise, but don’t always succeed. I walk at lunch and try to do pilates or wii fit every night. I started weighing myself on the wii fit every morning when I wake up, it keeps record of everything and is a great motivator.

I would like to increase my workout, maybe start walking with the family a few nights a week. Oh and we did the Cancer Relay Walk, I think I walked for a total of 5 hours, that was great exercise. Then this last weekend for the 4th, I wakeboarded, tubed, kneeboarded, and jetskied. Major muscle workout on the muscles that don’t get much use. I need to do that every weekend, I would be in great shape.

OH and I signed up for co-ed softball with my hubby. We need to start practicing asap, but it should be fun and excercise.

New Goal: 120 lbs and trim, tummy be at least 33″ by August 14th.

How: Cut calories, eat more protein, walk at least 30 min a day and do muscle/pilate training.

GO ME!
