hey buddies!!  i am back and ready for this.  as you can see in my title..  33 days off….  this has been the longest break in my journey this year.  it was not on purpose.  it was only suppose to be for a week (the week of my anniversary), the kids got out of school, then i looked up and it was july!!  YIIIIKES!!  i did not gain it all back and i am so lucky to have the support that i have in Poetry and Nancy.  staying on me and trying to push me to get out and do the damn thang… even tho i didn’t do it.  i have been watchin my eating. 

SOOOOO!! 7/6/10 i said F-it!! this has been going on long enough!! i put in my jillian dvd and that was the begining of my come back.  it felt so good to workout again.  i just have to make some time to get away from the kids and focus on getting myself better.  i like to workout alone with NO distracions.  i work from home full-time and the kids are outta school for the summer, so they are constantly around me.  when they were in school i would have time on my lunch to do what i wanted without the distraction..  well, now i just have to tell them, this is my ME time and just do it.

i am back and ready for my body to start its change again.  my birthday is next month and its on!!  YOU HEAR ME!!

 aiight then buddies!  i will holla!

I worked it out and got into my anniversary dress.  I made it last year but we didn’t go out, so it just hung in the closet.  This year I made it my priority to get into it again and was determined to get out and have a nice time with my hubby.  We got the girls set up at the house and went out for a wonderful dinner.  It was great. 

Just wanted to show my BS family that I made it and you can too with hard work and determination!!

I thought this challenge was gonna get the best of me.  With writing down every single thing I ate.  And with the workouts.  I tried to do certain exercies that I could easily calculate the calories burned. I may have been able to do more if I stuck with what I have been doing.  But this has really let me see what I have been eating.   

 I thank Loni and Poetry for all of the support during this week also!  Thanks ladies.  And way to go for the rest that participated in this challenge.

As some of you know, i have been stressin for the past few months with my selling a house, looking for a house and waiting to move.  i am unable to post the pic, cause it is too big..  and i don’t know what i am doing enough to make it fit, lol.  so if you wanna see it, i can e-mail it to you. 

 also, i am about to get back on track with my eating.  working out will come a lil later after i get everything all unpacked an put up.  but hopefully i will be able t drop a pound or 2 this week to get it rollin.  i am back up to my starting buddyslim weight and it is no ones fault but my own.  so now its time to tackle it and get it right..  i am going to see MAXWELL next month with my husband and i wanna look goooooood. :) 

thanks for listening to my whinning these past days, weeks, months buddies!!

This is something that I came across on fitnessmagazine.com.  Hope that it can help someone out there in buddy land. :)  I know that we all have a routine that we may do, but if you want to change it up for any reason.  Here is something to think about doing.

Enjoy Buddies!!

i have 3 full weeks til my Vegas birthday gift from my sister.  4 weeks til by birthday!!  i have to kick it up several knotches with exercising and my eating.  last week was not a good week for me at all.  no working out, not too bad with the eating.  i sucked big time on my “goals”.  i had good intention to do them, i was pretty busy and did not have time for that, nor any sort of “me” time.  but starting TODAY!!!  it’s on.

i need to get in my step classes and extra treadmill runs.  not sure if i can make it outside this week.  it is suppose to rain most of the week.   oh, yea and most def some weights.  i still may not lose the pounds that i want.  but i know something will happen.  perhaps an inch or two?? or just the overall of me feeling good.  that sounds good. :)  awww, we will see.  either way it goes, i need to so something.  i can’t continue all of these week long breaks.

aiight then buddies.  i gotta get to work. 

have a great week and holla at ya girl!

the title of this blog is something that i WILL NOT be this week..  i will not be obsessed with my weightloss this week.  i will not be nervous come friday’s weigh-in like the past few weeks. 

this week i am not going to give up.  i am not going to stress about ANYTHING (work/class/weight/home).  i am going to continue to do what i have been doing, counting calories, drinking water/green tea and my workouts that i set for myself each week.

i know i should have been like this from the very begining, but it did not work out like that.  i was so set on a weight to lose by a certain time.  i don’t think it was outrageous, it’s just that, my body has a mind of its own.  lbs don’t fall off of me quickly.  i see the inches before anything.  it has been several months and only a 5-7 lb loss.  that is very frustrating.

but like i said..  NO OBSESSION THIS WEEK!!

so here is to this week.

later buddies!!
