Well I wanted to be really good and do a double workout today, but after I got home I was waiting for Dave to finish eating, and then he didn't even want to work out in the end... Although his sister worked out with me instead, by the time we were done with just the weight lifting it was midnight, and I didn't wanna do an hour of cardio after that, it would keep me up all night... So instead I'm going to do 2 workouts tomorrow, 1 in the morning and 1 in the evening with dave's sis again so she can see the other power 90 work out.

I feel a little better today, hopefully tomorrow with a double workout I'll feel even better about myself, and hopefully I get my scale soon so I can find out what I weigh finally, fingers crossed for under 145!

Wish me luck!

ugh...

So this new job is killing my healthy eating habits! I can make myself 1 meal per day for free, and I'm trying to keep it healthy, like today I had a 1/2 turkey sandwich with egg and cheese, which is relatively healthy, but then I had to try making a crape, since I'd never made them before, so i had 1 filled with strawberries and bananas and topped with cinnamon and vanilla glaze, not to healthy... Although it was either that or stuffed with banana and nutella... which woulda been way worse... I'm trying though, I really am and after putting it into the daily plate, I'm right on target, technically i have another 40 calories left for me today, but I'm not going to use them. Still have to workout tonight, I'm doing double duty, both an hour of cardio and a 30 minute weight lifting... It will be my first full day in a long time, but it is definitely needed. I still don't have a scale to see where I'm at, but I ordered one for super cheap on amazon.com, and i should have it tomorrow or tuesday, my fingers are crossed. Either way, I'll keep you posted - for those of you if there are any, who want to check out where I work, go to www.thecheekymonk.com

Wish me luck

Super sore today...

So yesterday I did the biggest loser Cardio Max workout. I did a warm up, level 3, level 2, level 3 and then a cool down. And it kicked my ass beyond belief!!! I hurt so bad this morning. Kinda felt like I got hit by a truck or something... I didn't let that stop me though! I did the power 90 sweat workout this morning with dave, and kicked my butt again. I didn't slow down during the whole thing, I'm proud of myself for doing now 4 days in a row... Looks like it will be 9 days in a row before I get a day off, since Dave insists on taking Sunday's off, and I didn't quite feel like taking Sunday off, so that means 9 straight days for me. That means I'll be kickin my butt!

Wish me luck!

2 days

In a row, still don't know what I weigh. Yesterday was a cheat day for me, It was dave's nephew's birthday, so I made him a cake, and it turned out tasty, but that was the only way I cheated, it brought me above my calorie count, and although not too bad, after working out it still put me about 200 calories over my allotted calorie count... But 1 day out of a week, is not bad, and only 200 calories isn't as bad as it could be. Over all I'm still determined, I will work out today even though dave refuses to work out with me. And hopefully I can get ahold of a scale within the next few days to see where I'm at, I think I'm back down to my 10 lb goal, but I now have another 7 lb goal... So hopefully I am maybe down a pound in that too so that I only have 6 to go, I know I'm being overly optimistic here but sometimes ya just gotta be, right?

Wish me luck!

Finally

Today was the 2nd day I finally felt better, and you know what that means... I worked out for the first time in a LONG time, and it felt great! Aside from the slightly wheezed feeling I had thanks to my asthma that kicks in when I'm sick. Aside from that I feel great that I worked out, and I made Dave work out too. He is apparently really out of shape when it comes to cardio, we will see tomorrow how he does with weight lifting.

I have no idea what I weigh as of right now because I don't have a scale down in the basement where I'm staying, although Dave says his sister does have a scale, hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to weigh myself and see where I'm standing vs 2 weeks ago before the wedding. My fingers are crossed that I'm still around the same spot.

Wish me luck!

Still Sick...

went to the doc yesterday, got a virus, just gotta tough it out, and hopefully I'll be better in a few days. My fingers are crossed.

Sick Days...

Kinda fell off the barrel a little bit I guess... On vacation, didn't do a whole lot of working out, haven't done any since I got back... Driving to Colorado didn't help either, being in the car and stopping at triple D restaurants. They were good, and REALLY unhealthy. Luckily we split everything. Anyways, now I'm sick and I really don't feel well enough to work out, i'm back to eating healthy and making sure my calorie count is in check. Which is better than nothing while I'm sick so.

Wish me luck...
